Steve G Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Of course its different from a reissue which comes out much later, but a second issue on a National label is a reissue (not the 'original'), Steve, no matter how you couch it. But, as I said, I don't give a fig either way. I'll leave the label bragging to those who feel the need.

Sean Hampsey Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Don't think you'll ever understand this northern thing Sean Certainly don't think I understand (or appreciate) what its become (or what some would like it to become) Steve. Lunatics, with fragile egos and an agenda of totally misplaced pettiness, all bidding for the keys to the asylum... ...and sadly - Soul music suffers. How does it benefit a Soul artist if, after years of neglect, his or her record finally gets a legitimate UK release... and the so called 'Soul DJ's' in this country aren't allowed to play it - to promote it? Its infantile nonsense and I'll always be amongst the first to speak out against such childishness as its purely driven by egotism and self promotion. Soul music DJ'ing seems to have become more of a Collectors showcase than a means of promoting the very music... that we are all supposed to love. Fukc 'em all - the ego monsters - I don't ever want to understand such a loada baloney. Hope you're well mate! Sean Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
CAMBRIDGE SOUL Posted February 24, 2009 Author Share Posted February 24, 2009 This record was one of the turning points for me at Wigan in 1980 - I was amazed at the stuff Richard and Sam were playing when I went back up there after a break. Always loved this one - that kind of Prelude Lester / Brown type beat, and those vocals.........a record I never tire of.......can I play it when I come up to Cambridge in May David?

Soulof Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Sean, disagree with you there - it's a National release of a local release - happened all the time in the USA as you know because the locals could't manage distribution or because the national thought it had potential (or both). That's different from a reissue which is something that comes out much later in response to some sort of demand. I am sure Flanny has danced to my copy of the Ivories too. which has far better sound on it than the Despanza release by the way. Didnt know that about sound quality nice info. Is it a big diff? Not that Im close to a copy or so but one of the abs best track ever so fun to know. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Sean heh Sean wait for it to come out on a uk issue and play it at Just Soul!! that will prove your more soulful than us bloody nobodys who play those dammed originals. spending tens of thousands to fulfil their egotistical goal. Then the artist can pay his mortgage off with the royalties or may have enough for a bag of Werthers (originals) of course then the real soul fans can know they helped in someway and saved the artist a life of pumping gas ROMANCE IS NOT DEAD is it ?

Sean Hampsey Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Nowt wrong with playing originals, matey,....... I've got absolutely thaaaaaaaaaaazands of 'em... ...but there's nowt wrong with playing proper, kosher, reissues either. By the way, if you don't think the playing of reissues could ever be good for an artist, you obviously missed The Tams in 1971 and Robert Knight in 1973 on Top Of The Pops... Apart from the obvious benefits to the artist, such promotion did a helluva lot to advance Soul music, in the UK, too... ... and who could possibly argue with that?

I mean many of the artists are dead, some people don't pay royalties on "reissues" anyway etc.....and in many (most?) cases the actual artist won't see anything from a "reissue" - the owner of the rights to the song will be more lineky to see something for their efforts, but the artist ? More often than not, no. So I don't think it's as clear cut a picture as you are attempting to paint. Very different in the 70s when soul was making the Top 20 on a regular basis and the UK soul scene was largely based on digging out records from the previous 5-7 years.

Surely plays for something like that would be genuinly promoting soul music? I'd have no qualms about continuing to play Nat Imp at the right venue at the right time.

I guess the difference is I have just about every £5 soul 45 that there is - a few I don't have I know that, but pretty much the exception these days. Hence I am cherry picking the more elusive stuff when it turns up - but only the ones I personally like. And that has meant a couple of deals at Motorway services that is true. Have gone off that southern soul cheap production CD type of thing a bit I must admit.
