Guest andyrattigan Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Saw this the other day. Will definitely be buying it. Bought the marvelous King-Northern Soul on Kent the other day. Great stuff on that. Another gem from Kent. Best compilation label by a long shot. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Boogaloo Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Bloody marvelous cd. Not a duff track on the whole thing. Didn't know you'd been speeding up the Luther Ingram tho', Ady. Warren Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

pow wow mik Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 (edited) just thought id bump this with some info on one of the tracks as it says in the sleeve notes that not much is known - Track 12 'tumbling down'. i know of another version by Peggy King on Roulette 4327. dont have it but know it's called 'up up up (flying high). Might help with tracing the songwriter or whatever info was missing. GREAT CD BY THE WAY!! so nice to have Luther, Big Ben etc at last after just hearing them out and i love that Gladys Bruce, any plans to put that on 45? cheers, mik.

(soundfile below) Nice one Mick, thanks. If as I suspect it's written by Henry Glover, Wally Hall and Billy Myles, it's a reasonable bet that our Tom Tumbleweed is Billy Myles who cut a few 45s in this period. We continue to learn. I like this version, very Peggy Lee. Whadya reckon to Mata Hari by Chet Ivey, I love it but someone else wasn't so sure. It's very cute and Coastersy. The lyrics crack me up. We'll do Gladys Bruce on a single eventually but Luther's gonna be out for Cleethorpes! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Sebastian Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 (edited) May I just say this again: this CD is fantastic. It hasn't strayed more than 20 centimetres from my CD-player during the past 2 weeks. Pretty much every damn track on it is superb. And that Peggy King above is nice as well. Prefer the "Tom Tumbleweed" take though. Edited March 18, 2008 by Sebastian Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

The CD should just be bought anyway, the unreleased tracks are the best ones, fantastic work 7 that Luther Ingram just gets better every time i hear it (not had the luixury of hearing it out regularly like you southerners ) Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Soulgrit Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Only one word for it, brilliant, got the cd from Roger at Prestatyn, mentioned this to some friend's and when they went to get one, they were all sold out. Great addition to the 1st two New Breed cd's. Love the Barbara Perry, Marry Clayton, Joe Simon, Charmaines, Eugene Church, Nappy Brown, Luther, fecking hell 'there's not a bad track on it'.

What in the hall is 'Popcorn' (cos you sure as shootin' ain't talkin' about the stuff that poots out of my pop-corn maker...)? Club Popcorn in Vrasene, near St. Niklaas (Antwerp) in Belgium started the Popcorn craze.This was around 1974, at the height of the club's popularity.See where it all started by checking this link https://www.popcornoldies.com/popcorn/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=21&Itemid=1 ://https://www.popcornoldies.com/popcor...1 In the early years the DJ's played a great selection of different styles of 50's and 60's music; Doo Wop, R&B, Tamla, Ska and Latin flavoured Jazz like Boogaloo or crazy instrumentals from the 60's like 'Quiet Village' by Martin Denny. https://www.soul-source.co.uk/Popcorn...699#entry621699 It's great to see Kent release a collection of mid-tempo R&B tracks with 'added Popcorn'....the start of things to come??

Thanks for all the nice comments folks, but I must put my hand up to one aspect I feel i didn't do quite right and that is the Popcorn element. Basically there are probably only about 4 tracks on there that are out and out Popcorn. I know it only says "with added Popcorn" but some people might be expecting a bit more. That was due to some tracks dropping out and other great New Breed type tracks becoming available and to be honest I don't think I'd studied the true Popcorn sound enough, although I do know a fair bit about it from my involvement with it in the 70s. So basically it's a New Breed R&B CD with a taste of Popcorn and hopefully a reasonably correct description of the scene in the liner notes. I think some of the Popcorners will dig the early 60s R&B as well so hopefully they'll be happy with the CD. I now need to do a full on Popcorn CD to make up for it and it would be great to give some proper recognition to the best of the soul and R&B sides that have been played there over the years, not least to counter the huge prevalence of bootleggers on that scene. In conclusion then this is primarily New Breed R&B but also features some gritty uptempo soul tracks like Barbara & The Browns, Sh'mon and Albert Washington. Several of the bluesier tracks move at a pace too, so it's far from a mid-tempo CD, though definitely a start of things to come. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest NASHEE Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Well well well......I thought I was mistaken at first...but no. I've read through this thread 5 times, and not one person has popped on to tell everyone what Shite Popcorn is. Wow...things are looking up. Looking forward to the Popcorn CD Ady...will be nice to hear some new popcorn stuff Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest JJMMWGDuPree Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Funny you should mention shyte. After buying a couple of CDs labelled as 'Northern soul/Popcorn' (Yes, I did notice they were both Belgian, but I didn't think anything of it at the time...) I was starting to think that 'popcorn' meant 'corny pop', but it would seem from what's been written here and in the references that popcorn is every bit as misrepresented on Ebay as northern soul is. I'm looking forward to seeing a Kent issue that will set me right. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I'm looking forward to seeing a Kent issue that will set me right. I have brought popcorn cd's where I've hated every single track...not because the tunes were rubbish...just that they weren't to my taste, after all I detest girlie northern stuff & struggle with pretty much all the doowop I've heard(lots of both of these styles are included in the popcorn genre too), but I would never refer to it as shite. I would be the first to admit the fact that I have very different taste in music to some people, so I'm really not surprised when other folk dislike what I class as wonderful. Big Voice Crooners Rule OK !!!....closely followed by Big Production & Strings Oh my God I could have been.....Miss Corny-pop instead of Miss-Popcorn Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Geoff Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Is there any chance of Luther Ingram's Baby Don't You Weep coming out on a 45 on one of the Kent labels? I reckon it would sell a few copies. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I haven't seen this one around ever although it has been on the playlist of some of the Belgian DJ's since ages.... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
