The Dramatics " Fell for you " is a great Tony Hestor song [ 4099 ] , as is " And I panicked " [ 4105 ] , plus Hot Sauce " What do you see in her " is another excellent ballad [ 4089 ]. Best ,Eddie

Margie Joseph - Volt 4012!! Soul perfection

Great thread, Baz.

Stax/Volt was probably the real home of soul and when they left Atlantic they were going through a very creative period, although some great tracks were overlooked at the time.

I've always said that a perfect introduction for any new soul fan would be the three Stax/Volt boxed sets. What more could anyone want?

Best regards,

Paul Mooney

P.S. "Stealing Love" is such an uplifting track, I've never understood why it isn't an anthem on the soul scene.

I agree entirely and they can be had cheap nowadays. The third box of 10 CD's cost me £42 recently!

Margie Joseph - Medicine Bend has always been one that did it for me

Volt 4020 Mavis Staples "A House Is Not A Home" ( yes the Bacharach song ) does it for me too.

Thanks to "Bearsoul" for puting me onto this

Cheers Paul

Would love some background on Joni Wilson - anybody know anything?

(if i can work out how to do it a sound clip should follow soon)

Here's "Loser's Seat" - it sounds like the actual Parliaments "Goodies" backing track - but who is Joni? and why on Volt?

(hope this link works)
