Daved Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 I even love his early stuff pre Brunswick. OK it's not northern soul (maybe not soul) but they're still great records. Perhaps Reet Petite should be added to the list for a laugh. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Mace Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 'Lonely life' on early orange Brunswick. Similar in style to Freddie Houston 'If I had known' it's a killer tune (if you like that sort of stuff) Get one quick while it's still cheap!!!!

Mark Bicknell Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 I'll add a little bit of Lavern Baker to the mix here.....love the duet 'Think Twice' fantastic record does this count...lol Also there is a brilliant X-rated version which has to be heard to be believed, Lavern asks Jackie if he likes chocolate ice cream and invites him to lick it.....wonderful stuff.

It was on the B side of the re-issue of higher and Higher in the 80's.

Daved Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 I've just listened to "Watcha Gonna Do About Love" for the first time in ages. I never really struck me playing the LP before. Good track but not one of his best imo. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Although I voted for "Haunted House" in poll, I could pick so many from his list of outstanding tunes, someone mentioned flip side "Im Travelling On" been spinning this a bit lately and love it.. another side I love is his flip of "Ive Learned about life" the stunningly soulful "Nobody But you" (guaranteed to get me back in good books wid the lass after an argument) Steve Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
