Audio Topic - Joe Bataan


Mike

Recommended Posts

Just been digging about in the old topics on here, which reminded me of just how many audio threads we used to have going

These threads/topics were themed topics where members just posted up an audio clip and maybe a few words that fitted in with the thread topic 

Thought may be good to revisit

So here we go, all you need to do is read, listen and if want to add a track or words then just post up

do ask...

  • Try not to hog the topic, one every few hours could work well
  • Keep it enjoyable, if you don't like the topic then may be better if you just keep your fingers away from that 'post'  button and just sit on the beach and wait for the next one
  •  

 so see how thing's go

here are a Joe Bataan audio topic...

picked joe Bataan for this as apart from the challenge of spelling his name right,  find that almost every time I browse his stuff always find something that grabs me

here's one such...

 

reworking of 'special girl' , background anyone...

Anyone know the track on the Dynamite label from 1970 titled "If I Were A King" .... Joe Bataan ran this Dynamite label (there were quite a few labels that used this name, including other US soul labels). Seems strange that just months later, Joe cut a song under this title himself, though he's credited as the writer of it . . .

Always loved his version of this and I do like watching old Soul Train videos

Kev

his take of shaft was another that at the time didn't really appreciate

Joe Battan has confirmed that the Mr Love & Company name was just hiding his real identity, as it was him that cut both versions of the song.
