James Brown.   Hey America got few plays in the early seventies.

Yea, I used to play this to Death and still Do 

 

This JB stormer  has had a few spins over the years

 

 

This must have had some plays 

 

 

James Brown - Hey America (vocal and instrumental)

 

James Brown's version of "There Was A Time" still gets plays.

Old Soul Sam spin - still getting plays today

I've heard this played out a couple of times, not too many to be honest ,does sound good when played loud though

I thought being sisters it would be close enough and many get the two mixed up anyway

Surely not? There is one superb album only northern track on an otherwise mundane album but for the life of me can't dredge it up.

Got that on a Persian 45 not seen listed anywhere. Hey America, pressed in Iran! When you think of the lyric, not such a surprise :-)

Dionne - perfect end of night track, listen to the lyrics

 

i quite like this one

Not sure what you mean but it certainly did get plays!!  Also a great version of 'These foolish things remind me of you' on the Hell album.

This is an LP only track and a stormer too!

Can't imagine either of those tracks at a northern venue other than to get people out the door. Where were they played?

These foolish things  - not suggesting this was played at Northern venues - Just great soul!! Lost Someone (70's) has had plenty of plays at a variety of venues - certainly not going to fall out with you over it!

Best Adam

So brilliant !!!

 

Here's the LP version from Dee Dee....I'll leave to personal taste to choose the 45 or LP

Never heard LP version ! Equally as good in its own way 

Heard this once or twice on release but more a Beach scene tune

 

 

More Disco than Northern but still a great track ! 

 

Twisted wheel sound really - use to play it at the northern soul / mod nights early 1980 / 81

 

Another soul singer who was hugely influential in the 60's (the Stones took much from him, as did other UK acts) and who had numerous biggies in 60's UK soul clubs was Don Covay. Don't think his stuff was ever played on the NS scene in the 70's.

Other UK outfits he influenced & who did his stuff included Spencer Davis Group, Geno Washington, Georgie Fame, Alan Price Set and these guys ...

"It's Better To Have" certainly got played during the 70's.

I know that. Just read my comment above in response to Tobytyke. 

As I pointed out its her sister, many get them mixed up, but thought you might actually like the record from one of the Warwick family.
