Soul Shrews Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 Evidence? Because that would be like a personal dream coming true. I dreamt of one in 1980 Sorry Benji I was kidding, hoped my smiley would have made that clear. Still I've always wondered why there isn't one? Can you imagine another couple of minutes after he really starts singing ? Cheers Paul Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Barry Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 I must say I have noticed a bit of a death-knell musically as regards some of the choices in this thread, my opinion of course, re the term 'soul music' but each to their own ay? Some have stretched it a bit for me if I'm honest - you know cos I know it all like. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest son of stan Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 You see, I think the best ones are those that came out when the format was just invented and did something brand new with the space, fidelity, volume it afforded.. Rather than just a longer version of something that could have come out on 7"or LP(good as all those can be) and before it became the default format for dance music... One of the most exciting records ever for me. Just when you think she is done.... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Benji Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Queen Yahna - Ain't It Time (P&P) Even though the picture shows the 12" it's the same recording as the 7" version. Both records state 5:00 but the actual song is only about 3:40 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
