Arlene Bailey- Conversation in the Street.

Takes a few plays to appreciate but worth the effort. Arranged by Horace Ott so got to be good.

 

Ruby and the Romantics already had 2 great tracks mentioned so here's a third

Only Heaven Knows on ABC

They also did a version of Hurting Each Other on A&M but not as good as the Ruth Lewis on RCA already posted.

I feel a wants list coming on...So add to add to the sublime agony of the thread I give you:

Lorraine Ellison 'Please don't Teach Me To Love You'

Dee Dee Warwick 'When I Haven't Got Anything Better to Do'

-well lots of Dee Dee really

Barbara Lewis 'Hello Stranger'

and lots of others if I go upstairs and look but the log mans coming and I've got to handball a ton of firewood in the rain so it'll have to wait.

Yes,you can end the thread now Jim. :)

 

I had one of these for sale yesterday and nobody bought it.  Unbelievable.  I've never heard such a heartbreaking performance such as Big Maybelle's on Oh Lord etc, especially right near the end where it has a chord change and she almost cries asshe sings.  An amazing record.
