hi, benny and tina-this love is real-blue rock....richard domar has a dj one listed for £15 mate,try his site, great tune

Sweetie Pie - brothers of love - blue rock

13494 refosoul

Sparse empty backing, but something about it gets to me, sounds like it would have been a monster in 80's but in reality a tape sound at best, are these tapes now rarities!!!Other side of Yes I Am making it cheap cheerful and worth it!!

Got To Get A Hold Of Myself - dee dee warwick - blue rock

13495 refosoul

As many know, one of my all time favorites, has reduced me to tears before, and have even played it out (which reduced others to tears as my DJ spots often did but for different reasons methinks) just great soul music and proves she is the talent of the family.

LOOK AT ME - delettes - blue rock

13496 refosoul

Used to play great... then one day... this

Edited January 17, 200718 yr by jumpinjoan

Cry Myself To Sleep - shirley wahls - blue rock

13498 refosoul

Okay most of the threads have concentrated on the dancers so a few raw ballads to finish, hide those razor blades, the other side obviously and listen to this girl wail, sublime soul, as deep as you like and then some to steal someones quote!!

The Soul Of A Man - pic and bill - blue rock

13499 refosoul

What a way to finish, throaty vocals, male duets are the real deal, all that testerone, not an original style of song but just one that gets those knees trembling. Good Night folks!CheersJock

Just Like A Woman - fads - blue rock
