Right folk bit of a strange one ive been asked to do my mates daughters wedding everything sorted she says only northern & Motown to be played no prob the first dance a waltz what soul  track to play after that she what's sweet happiness got that  then it's over to me Any thoughts much appreciated thanx jazz 

And this version of Ike Noble - Your Love. It's a truly beautiful record.

 

 

 

Wouldn't be proper without a bit of Aretha....................Stunning.

 

Dee Clark - That's My Girl     

Don't want to hog it - so, last one from me. The wonderful Johnnie Taylor - You're the best girl in the World. 

Get your ass on the dancefloor! 

 

I like to be a little controversial. We have oft spoken of blue eyed soul - and there are some great examples. Not sure that I ever hear Van's name mentioned in those conversations - but he have soul. Call me names if you like - but you should play this.

Nothing wrong with any of them but it depends on the crowd. At least a couple of those numbers could create a rush to the floor in certain circles and you don't want to detract from the occasion of the happy couples first dance. With This Ring worked for our first dance back in '74 (had to take the vinyl along for the wedding DJ). Nearly 43 years on you still hardly hear it out and it remains a special tune to us.
