sorry to be negative james but i don't like it at all. weak vocals, very dated-sounding track (which sounds odd, i know, but lots of 60s stuff stands up well today and some doesn't).

is it the rutles?

keep them coming, though biggrin.gif

would be nice if we could listen to it JT

hahaha

Click on the title for link to soundfile :thumbsup: (I'm at work so can't listen so will reserve judgement laugh.gif )

Nothing wrong with not liking stuff, especially if you have a reason for not liking it. :thumbsup:

No, it's not the Rutles. :thumbsup:

But I think in a similar way to the J J Jackson C/U, which sounds shite through the head phones but is a monster on a big allnighter sound system, I think we'll find this will come into it's own once it's played out full blast to a full dance floor. IMO :lol:

laugh.gif I kinda like the beat on this JT but agree the vocals may be a bit weak, have to hear it out loud. Oh and when have you ever had a full dance floor :thumbsup: lol :thumbsup:

Good intro and i like the clapping chorus but the brass section is a bit weak and the organ too strong. Reminds me of something that would appear on one of those beat progs of the 60s, like The Monkees or The Banana Splits. Now they were class biggrin.gif .

If you booked me for Plinston you'd soon find out :lol:

i quite like it too but IMO way too 'mod-ish' to go massive on the northern scene, too much of a typical british mid 60s blue eyed soul production in it. i tell you what, trade it with a mod for a proper soul record biggrin.gif

Sorry but it sounds too 60's formula pop for me.

I can see it working though.

Kin love the avatar . biggrin.gif

...I think you're shaming the good name(s) and memory of Messrs. Campbell and Johnson, is what I think. Couldn't you call it something closer to who it actually sounds like? Noddy and Big Ears, Sooty and Sweep, something like that?

TONE laugh.gif

PS: Actually I DO know who this is, but I'll keep quiet about it for you....

Quite like it, as you said hard to judge on piddly little speakers, might be one that would do well at t'100 club, can imagen the break sounding good loud, the Deh de dena dahh (if you get what bit i mean biggrin.gif

I like it, but it's a mod track. whoever said Banana Splits is right, sounds like something off the LP

Think youre right James.......................pinning your ears to the wall, thru a big system.

Keep findin' em buddy & keep playing em out, the dancefloor will judge. Truly appreciate you & people like you digging for the new sounds.............thank you.

..................well said indeed

It sounds like one of those bands they'd have in a groovy disco scene in a late 60's/early 70's Hammer Horror film: Amen Corner in 'Scream & Scream Again' springs to mind (though I can't actually remember what they sound like). Not my cuppa, but thanks for putting it up. I don't think you should have called it E & E though :unsure:

Sounds like the Outsiders to me

Mmmm it does sound simliar :)

I agree with Simon. Here's The Outsiders - Lost in my world. Very similar.

Cheers Russ.

Here's another discovery, from last year. I've included more of this track as obviously there was not enough of the "Eddie and Ernie" c/u for everyone to apreciate how good it is! :P

This is the "Detroit Executives - Just Say You Love Me" C/U, I normally play it at +3 or +4, this is a normal speed recording. I don't think this could be accused of being "too mod" "too much organ" "too funky" "too pop"or "too rocky horror picture show"? beer.gif:P:)

Feedback (negative or positive) encouraged. :)

I like it, but it's not soul. And I agree with those who suggested a different c/u :P
