Harrogatesoul Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 Can't seem to find anything really about the group - A studio creation of David Jordan ( Who wrote / produced it ). I can only assume it is a anonymous session singer? Tho this does have a habit of being someone who rare soul fans know. Good tune tho - Been selling at silly prices recently.

Guest lifeandsoul Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 Rare Pleasure apparently were:- Tony "Silky T" Allen, Jim Paye, Reginald Crutcher, Ivan "Mico Lewis" Groves, Sonny Kilabrew ,Ron Bailey, Mitch Kinney Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Harrogatesoul Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 The last silly price i saw was £12 on Gemm last year........ cum on, make me happy! Think one went on Ebay for about £60.. Seen a few go through at £30/40. But I would think £15/20 would be about right. Rich Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I'm a big fan of Rochelle Flemings voice. But the name of lead voice on the Rare Pleasure version must be documented somewhere?

Geoff Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Thanks for posting these 2 tracks, really liked them. Only thing I've got against them is that I'd start dancing and after 3 and a half minutes might have to be carried off the dance floor. Seriously though very good indeed.
