Soulsource Record Club 2014 "revival Time Again"

[kevinsoulman]

Can't find this one on U - Tube, so I hope that my Divi-Share account is suitable for posting.

Actually I but it some years ago for t'other side, which is "Is That Right" by Billy Frazier on Music World out of New York

however it's backed with a reyt funky number "Oh Baby (Look at Me)" which strikes me as being right for the more

progressive DJ's even though it's a dance craze number.

here you go mick just in case

Hi Dave

 

I bought the Sho Me label release as it's a little more interesting than the Juana one - I think the Sho Me was the first local label release before Juana. Of course Take Another Look is also a fantastic record.

Great taste Peter,

The Sho Me 45 was actually issued after the Juana single, odd as it may seem, nice mixes but I love all versions of both sides.

Maybe too disco for many on here but this did get MS plays around 30 years back .............

........... Instant Funk with "Crying"  ....... the lead vocals are just great .........

 

Great track, John.

 

I bought it as a new release on LP and 12" single, the album has a great ballad called 'Never Let It Fade Away' - very soulful.

That's interesting Paul

 

I'm still trying to pick my way through whats what.  I bought the Sho Me release as I thought it was a little more interesting - to me!

 

As you say it's quality all the way - music of the soul.

Spinners-Split Decision Love Trippin' LP

 

Hello Martyn,

Another LP I reviewed as a new release and I found some of the tracks were a bit too poppy, I wasn't exaclty a big fan of Michael Zager but I was completely knocked out by the ballad 'Now That You're Mine Again' which is pure deep soul, it has a southern feel and even has an organ on it - very unexpected for a song that was written and produced by Zager.

I always think of it as a John Edwards track with The Spinners on backing vocals.

Any John Edwards fan who hasn't heard it should check it out right away.  It was also issued as a 45 in the US (long and short versions) and in the UK it was on the B side of 'Split Decision'.

An amazing track by one of my favourite singers.

Very excellent.

 

Ten out of ten.

Etc.

Hello Kev,

Sorry but that sounds so bland and mediocre to me, I can't imagine any DJ would ever play it ...although on second thoughts...     

Not just because it's pop and white, it's not even good disco.

Each to his own Kev but I'm sure you've got far better records than that.

Paul

P.S.  Has it ever been played on the scene ?

 

[Mick Sway]

Billy Frazier Oh Baby.

Sorry Kev, I put it on the U tube and again on the source, meself this afternoon.

Though judging on the response, I shouldn't have bothered.

Thanks anyway.

 HI ALL....MY CHOICE TONIGHT is from m youth, in 1969 the soul scene was in it's infancy, debates raged about white artists could not be classed as soul TAMLA MOTOWN was for kids, the DRIFTERS had sold out when they put strings on their songs,and the scene was being hijacked by pilled up skinheads listening to "afetasoul", maybe? but them days have stayed with me, on the few times I went to the TWISTED WHEEL CLUB, I come away confused about the music policy, similar to the LONDON CLUBS, however people talking about Chubby Checker, the DRIFTERS were the most sort after group & Sam Cooks "another Saturday night" & "chain gang" were top sounds, Ben E King was the boss, the DRIFTERS & KING had not played in the UK since they did the NIGHT OWL, Always the top group in the UK, in the 7ts they become a house hold name,,

however my record is by Ben E King - "Spanish Harlem" - LONDON HLK9259. IMAGINE 1969 in the WHEEL, 100% flash, the in crowd, maybe it is BRIAN RAYS Spinning this all-time classic, these are our roots they are as deep as you like and then some  NORTHERN SOUL? or just up north??  DAVE K

Sticking with the 70's theme of today - thought I'd posted this but can't see it upon checking. The Jackson Sisters - Shake Her Loose.

 

Has a nice mid tempo groove with some nice sax.

 

Peter

 

 

 

Top tune, have played it out a few times.

They usually hit the floor and then realise its not Ordinary Joe (because of the intro), but then

get into it anyway.

I don't remember hearing this out back then, I've always thought of it as a 'newer' play, and certainly never actually heard it myself until late 80s/early 90s I think.

Was it you who posted "I'll Find" Martyn? Someone did before Christmas , which is the reason I looked out for it.

I was gambling that someone hadn't flipped it.

Great stuff anyway,

Found a suitcase full of old records last year that had been dumped , the only thing of any interest was the Roy C on Island, the rest was Ken Dodd and the like.

Sky blue with silver type as I remember. Think Jonathon King had something to do with the U.K. label.

[Mick Sway]

Carol Anderson "It Shouldn't Happen To a Dog"  Mid-Town 270 Detroit

Thought I'd post this as Anglo have booked it at £150 though Popsike shows the highest price paid as forty five quid in 2013.

Carol Anderson's excellent oldie "Holding On" had two issues on Mid-Town, on 271 with "You boy" (also issued on another label

I think,the name of which escapes me) and  the first issue, 270  with "it shouldn't happen to a dog" on the flip.

The latter Mid-Town 270 is said to be the scarcest of these issues and is the one booked the highest in Tim Brown's new Price "Guide"

and on John Manship's.

I know dealers have to mark records up for overheads,vat etc, however I really think that ought to take a more pragmatic

view of what records are actually going for on E-bay.

The one I have is the 271 it cost £25 3 year ago probably

A more realistic price but dosent detract from the fact she has a quality in her voice on all 3 of the sides mentioned Top post Mick.
