Records Ready For A Second Go On The Scene

Posted

As the debate continues here and on the scene about what records are over played as I've been sorting through a few bits to sell off, swap, trade or whatever I've become aware of a few tunes which I've not played in ages perhaps a few years either on the show or out and about at the gigs, I think you tend to keep hold of certain records that hold that special quality and magic perhaps for those rainy days and it would seem to be pissing down with the present comments and mood on music policy issues at some venues, one such tune I've just played upstairs is Tommy Bush - I Don't Like It (But I Love You) - Rika.....perhaps not played that much anymore because it's a bloody rare record, a very popular tune way back and I seem to remember it getting bootlegged? no matter not heard it in years anywhere? Northern R'n'B crossover of the highest order before we used the R'n'B tag lol, certainly up there with Little Richie, Mickie Champion etc. and others in that style there must be scores of records like this waiting for a second wind??????? or is Tommy Bush and it's like also old hat?

Footsie yeh!!

billy watkins - the ice man - era, sounds so fresh when defrosted!! quality forgotten oldie imho

russ

I can never remember the oldies that I really liked - doh! And now because I don't get out that much I don't know what isn't being played - double doh!!

Some oldies that I do like though are:

Arin Domain - Silent Treatment

Gil Blanding - Rules

That track that I can never remember that RS had covered up as Roddy Joy - Vivian (somebody)

Keep Away From Me - Elbie Parker

By Yourself - JD Martin

etc

Does this stuff get played out much at the moment - I don't know? I'll think of some others.

Hi

The constant in almost all of these records, either forgotten or over played is quality.

The reason some were forgotten is the sheer amount of brilliant records our scene has discovered over the years.

Look forward to more, & I hope refosoul is back soon so we can all have a listen.

cody black...good call, if i remember rightly, the other sides not too bad

Somebodys gonna`end up loving,yes it good too!!i thought going going gone too,ace thumbsup.gif

Great thread!

I don't get out much so I 'm not really up on what's current and what's not but this thread appealed to me as i had a sit in the room and play records afternoon. The following were spun for the first time in ages. They sounded great ....to me at least and as good as the last time I played them, which was a while ago.

Tony middleton - Spanish maiden Speed

The Impacts - Jerkin' in your seat - Counsel

Bobby Taylor - Oh I've been blessed

Willie Kendrick - You can't by pass love/Give me lots of lovin' - RCA Victor

Gary

cody black...good call, if i remember rightly, the other sides not too bad

THE FLIP IS BRILL ANOTHER CODY BLACK THAT NEEDS A SPIN IS TOO MANY IRONS IN THE FIRE A CLASSIC TUNE IF EVER THERE WAS ONE IMHO.

Thank The Lord For Love - Living Color

Shy Guy - Johnny Baker

Money Can't - Turn Of The Century

Don't Wait Up For Me Mama - Barbara & Brenda

Time Passes By - James Bynum

I Quit You Win - Jimmy Lewis
