Irish Mash Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 I like the big drama soul of Roy Hamilton and I'm searching a bit further than the big hits. Looking him up on Discogs I find 18 compilations and 18 original albums. That's a lot to wade through - spirituals, easy listening standards before you get to the soul goodies. Anybody point me in the right direction? Thanks Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Woodbutcher Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Try punching "Roy Hamilton soul" in the YT search engine for starters ... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Mgm 1251 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 He didn’t record for that many lables ,but his output was quite varied and vast.As for Northern related tunes,you probably won’t have to look much further than MGM,RCA and a couple on Epic(including some great R&R tunes)........ 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Rick Cooper Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 For his 60s MGM tracks try the CD "Warm Soul" on Poker DECKCD104, includes The Panic Is On and You Can Count On Me. RCA and his final AGP tracks are on the CD "Tore Up" from Shout ,number SHOUT 44. includes the northern tracks and some superb deep soul recordings, an essential CD as it would be hard to get all the singles . Both these were on Cherry Red distributed labels but are deleted now so you may have to search around a bit. Rick 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
