December 30, 200420 yr Mine is Jon Ford "You've Got Me Where you want me", why is this so hard to get? Phil
December 30, 200420 yr 2 0f the best from my past & I know i will get a slaging for posting these I think it would be a brave man to play them out nowadays link Bobby Paris - stunning tune. Still played at oldies nights. My suggestion is Back Street - Edwin Starr. Heard Dave Rimmer play it at Peterborough, had forgotten what great sounds were on Ric Tic.
December 30, 200420 yr if a track is as good as that ( i walked away ) why would it take a brave man to play it. I find it very strange that tracks get overlooked for the reason that some might turn their nose up at it. Who cares what these people think. Just because it hasn't been played for X amount of years surely doesn't mean that it should be forgotten for ever!!!!
December 30, 200420 yr Jerry Butler - One Night Affair Darrell Banks - Angel Baby Ray Merrell - Tears Of Joy The Knights - When You Drop Your Guard There are so many to choose from
December 30, 200420 yr Jerry Butler - One Night Affair Darrell Banks - Angel Baby Ray Merrell - Tears Of Joy The Knights - When You Drop Your Guard There are so many to choose from link i prefer the stevie wonder version of angel baby ......was it ever played ? Davie

December 30, 200420 yr i'm quite keen on billy joe royal - hearts desire and as i've just bought will play it at first opportunity Davie
December 30, 200420 yr Mine is Jon Ford "You've Got Me Where you want me", why is this so hard to get? Phil link Same answer as with most of them - it wasn't bought at the time, radio didn't play it, badly promoted. But the mystery with this particular record is - the issues are relatively common - I've had 4 or 5 - but the demos are absolutely mega rare, probably less than 10 known Philips demos, nobody seems to know why.
December 30, 200420 yr i prefer the stevie wonder version of angel baby ......was it ever played ? Davie link I think that's LP only so probably not
December 30, 200420 yr My suggestion is Back Street - Edwin Starr. Dave Abbott's played this recently, Leeds and Eastbourne, and maybe Fleetwood cant remember link Janine, why not play it on the 8th? Along with that other one that's not played much, The Entertainer by Tony Clark!

December 31, 200420 yr What about Ernie Andrews -Fine young Girl Steve link The best record in the world - And richie says it sounds like my mothers records!
January 4, 200520 yr What About 'The Paradox - Ring The Changes' I Think it Was British Played By Rob Smith Early 80's
January 5, 200520 yr Ive got The album but i think it a reissue its on uk Tamla Motown anybody Know how to till a reissue form the original, must admit I know very little about lps, Seen loads on ebay link The original UK LP will have a catalogue number preceded by 'TML' for mono or 'STML' for stereo copies. Paul SITC
January 5, 200520 yr What About 'The Paradox - Ring The Changes' I Think it Was British Played By Rob Smith Early 80's link It's on UK Polydor.

January 5, 200520 yr I also play Jackie Wilson "SOUL GALORE" lately. Plkayed it at Fleetwood in November and 2 'top' DJ's did not know what it was.
January 5, 200520 yr Jerry Butler On my play list the last few weeks....Great 70s mooover.. link I've played it quite a bit at Soulsville in the last year or so. The Knights - now I haven't that out for such a long time!!! "When you drop your guard, Love knocks you down......" Used to love that when I was a kid, doing all me boxing moves to the T.K.O. part. Quite silly I was really.....

The Knights.... still got that somewhere around buried in one of those "discarded" piles we all seem to have ....
January 5, 200520 yr 2 0f the best from my past & I know i will get a slaging for posting these I think it would be a brave man to play them out nowadays link ================ Bobby Paris is still played reasonably regularly (thankfully).......particularly round my local area.

January 5, 200520 yr Bobby Paris - stunning tune. Still played at oldies nights. My suggestion is Back Street - Edwin Starr. Heard Dave Rimmer play it at Peterborough, had forgotten what great sounds were on Ric Tic. link ============== Back street was played at either Hinkley, Lifeline or Willington.......can't remember which they all seemed to merge into one.....soz. Winnie;-)
January 5, 200520 yr Yeh Jamie.... The Knights.... still got that somewhere around buried in one of those "discarded" piles we all seem to have .... link Now then Marko, I'll have it off you if you don't want it! Totally forgot about that one, I don't mind a bit of cheese every now and then. We try and be a bit clever sometimes and forget how good some music is. But The Knights isn't everyone's cup of tea I agree. Bloody got me singing it though
January 5, 200520 yr Please don't encourage her. Janine played a pretty good set at the last These Old Shoes, spoiled only by playing The Entertainer. link Bloody hell, a compliment of Stu and I only just read it
