didn't sound so bad, but it was just 'straight up' vocal house to me. listened to both vocal mixes, preferred the milder original mix - and i think it would cetainly go down better than the harder mix, with soul audiences.

housey housey pump up the bittah :thumbsup:

i quite liked that , but , as someone who know sod all about modern stuff .... what makes it any different to the hundreds of other that sound the same ?

Doesn't do it for me Mark.

Sorry. :thumbsup:

Same here mate, nothing out of the ordinary i'm afraid

Lenny

Sorry,

One of those "you had to be there" moments I'm afraid

there couldn't be any offence cos you never made a point ..... i said at the start i quite liked it , there that was my mind made up . now i want to know from a modern point of view what makes it a great tune on the modern scene , whats the problem with that? :thumbsup:

very soulful sound but the same backing music as a hell of a lot of other tunes but i still think its ok :thumbsup:

I think Mark probably knows Soul Sam no doubt bought it at the recent Summer Ball and will end up playing it in a northern soul room!! :thumbsup:ph34r.gif:ohmy:

Decent track from a top flight vocalist but overall a tad formulaic to my ears - that sound is in danger of becoming the new 'Driza-bouncy-castle' if it's not careful. :)

Davie, I'm the same to 60s r&b what you are to modern, I wouldn't have the first idea what differentiates a good r&b record from a not so good one. How would you explain if if somebody asked you that?

Roger

I like it.

Sounds as good as (or better than) most of the recent product that I've come across (If more 'Modern' stuff was as good or distinctive and as evidently 'Soulful' as this I'd probably buy more of it).

I think you're right, in that it sounds like it could be Huge for the dancefloor.

Not at all bad on the eardrums either (although late Friday nights I normally go for a more mellow mood).

Thanks a lot for the post.

god help us if those real soul djs get hold of it mark

:thumbsup:ph34r.gif

sounds good to these ears

:thumbsup:

Well here's one Real Soul DJ that will be getting hold of it!

:thumbsup:

And I bet a few others will too.. (but they probably wont be playing it out until 2015)

:thumbsup:

i would have to look at the particular record in question and then give an opinion on why it was being described as HUGE , but i would have an answer in my opinion what made it great

Certainly not for the northern room!!!!!!!......... but would go down well in the Garage/Soulfull house room....It`s got the required elements to jump about to.

Doesn't do much for me I'm afraid. :unsure:

Like Davie, I would like to know what differentiates this from dozens of other similar tracks. Is it just that the artist isn't "mainstream"?

I just played it to my son, who is involved in funk/house/hip-hop etc events, and when he'd stopped laughing he described it as "cheese for towny clubs" and was astonished that it might get played on our scene. :ohmy:ph34r.gif

Paul Phillips pointed out that Martin had this .. Not sure about it myself .. :unsure:

Great vocals, nice melody in there too.

Definitely one for me! :unsure:

Sounds like somethging Stock, Aitkin and Waterman might have done!

You took the words right out of my mouth. Except I was going to add Rick Astley.

Ron Carroll is the man, not done a bad record and this is another quality tune. Though for me the new Ann Nesby "So Much Joy" would have more crossover appeal onto the northern side as it's got a very similar backing to "Tribute to Betty" https://www.juno.co.uk/products/222300-01.h...highlight=nesby

I should point out that I wasn't trying to force this down anyones throat, or suggest that it would necessarily cross-over to the NS scene, just posting it as a good soulful example of the genre that some folk on here may dig.

As far as the Ann Nesby cut goes, see my Cleethorpes weekender playlists here:

https://www.soul-source.co.uk/index.p...29791&st=50 :yes::yes::yes:

And to add even more interest, for those that don't know, Ann Nesby was the lead voice on those early Sounds Of Blackness tracks which are the subject of much interest elsewhere on the forum.

Cheers,

Mark R

The Ann Nesby Track is better than the Ron Carroll track, which was a bit bland-neither of them come up to the level of Ron Hall and the Motherfunkers-'the way you love me'

....unfortunately no vocals, on the sample, but that's IT in stoopid handz fer yer! :thumbsup:

Oh Pete, that was so much more creative than your usual 'I haven't heard it but... " :thumbsup:

Like some others, find a lot of these tracks quite 'samey'... quite like the Ann Nesby, but then think her voice is great anyway, love 'In The Spirit'.

could be ok with a real band or a producer without that generic dance beat on his casio imo.

nice voice as you always get with a lot of this kind of stuff.

i hope no one tells soul sam about this one. i dont want to hear it at the progressive 60s/70s nighters i go to :D:thumbsup:

cheers for posting it tho mark. :D

it is a soul forum afterall and i think this one sneaks in (just :P )
