let's start with the female "A's" - see if we get to the "Z"

Posted

unless it's already been done to death on a thread before...:(

Female artists (singular) or Female (girl groups). Starting with "A"-  your favourite-if you had to choose just one - how many could we list? :) 

for the list...Artist and one track.

someone else can can take up the batton and move us to the "B's" when the "A's", etc, dwindle and fade!

    Another Soul great who has never made a bad record

    Had to include this fantastic tune

    Phew...we're heading into the "P's"

    (Girl/Girl Group only)

    The Poodles comprised two sisters Marilyn and Sue Cogdill and their cousin Sharon Cunningham.They recorded at Southern City's small rehearsal studio in Gallatin, Tennessee. It was never intended that 'step by step' would be released with the low level of sound quality. The Poodlles one and only release. The B side 'I got a good thing' was recorded at a local nightclub with a few students placed around the stage for audience sound effects.

     

     

    Great vocals from Barbara and one of the best songs and productions (imho) from 

    "He who's name must not be spoken" .....

    as per Mike's concerns-Please ONLY POST ONE per " letter".

    I don't think that will be an issue as i move it to the "Q's"

    Quiet Elegance formed in Detroit with Yvonne "Frankie" Gearing, Mildred Vaney, and Lois Reeves. Vaney (aka Mildred Scott). Frankie Gearing has been in the Glories, the Laddins, and the Steinway's.Out of the 8 singles, this 1975 number is (IMO) their closest to NS.

    Not heard this for years.

    Great oldie

    We are on the "Q" or on the "P" letter...?

    Anyway, I want to make a little and humble tribute to (IMHO) one of the most complete vocalist; she is tagged as a "jazz singer" or "samba singer", but she demonstrated her flexibility collaborating with Crusaders, Joe Sample, with Chic Corea's Return To Forever, with his husband Airto Moreira, as a solo act;... she is THE GREAT FLORA PURIM

     

    Thought I would let this one join the “queue”.....,E1D85DC3-8800-4EB2-A250-DD0BA5122AF3.thumb.jpeg.a0c0d2812b4a3bfe83c2d410ffd4aaac.jpeg

    My "R" -

    i'll pop an "S" on Sunday then we should be back in-line.

    maybe controversial again...

    ‘Don’t You Worry Baby The Best Is Yet To Come’(Besse Banks)is a track that was first played at Blackpool Mecca in 1976 .

    Greg Wilson, UK DJ launched his Super Weird Substance label back in June 2015. Having featured on the label's inaugurating release alongside Wilson, Seacombe-based twins The Reynolds step up for their debut proper with a superb cover version of a Northern Soul classic. Vocals from Katherine and Carmel Reynolds ride the production work by Greg Wilson and Lee 'Peza' Perry.

     

     

    S for Soul and Sandy....

    Killer deeeeep Soul

    Still with the "S's"

    (remember, girl /girl groups only pls. And try to keep ssme letter posts to 1 or 2-see Mike's note)

     

     

    Double "S", for "S"ylvia and for "S"mith (or triple, another "S" for "sexy"). I only have found the complete album from 1976 on ABC, but the bomb is the first track "Original Midnight Mama":

     

    Edited by josep manuel concernau robles

     

    Just wanted to add a few to the R's

    Shawn Robinson- "My Dear Heart"

    Rita and the Tiaras- "Gone With The Wind Is My Love"

     

      Awesome Soul from Marlena Shaw - Let's Wade In The Water  :yes:   :thumbsup:  :hatsoff2:

    Mss. SHARON PAIGE! My absolute favorite by this fantastic female vocalist is not credited to her (and she is the only vocalist) I'm referring to "I'm Searching For A Love" from the album credited to Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes "Wake Up Everybody" where her name only appears on the credits. Credited to her, here's another mellow ballad:

     

     

     Brilliant spin from Sharon Scott - Could It Be You  :hatsoff2:
