The Best Two New To You 60's/70's

Posted November 23, 200816 yr

After last Friday at Grantham my outlook of the rare soul scene as changed somewhat! The quality of music was to blame for changing in how I felt about the future of the soul night scene I now believe it has one.

When I go to a soul night you never expect to hear a lot of new to you records but on Friday there was many! The likes of:-

Tut Sutton "I can feel the tears"

Answers "thinking of you"

Idols "check her out",

The fantastic Sharon McMann "got to find another guy"

And many more I can't remember the name of after a few

So I was thinking about the best new tracks I had the pleasure of listening to this year the two for me are from last Friday.

60's

Tut Sutton "I can feel the tears" played by John Manship at the last "out on the floor again" on Friday was the best new to me N/Soul track this year bar none.

70's

A track that Soul Sam played for the first time out at the same venue that will have the 70's crowd doing cartwheels!

Four Coins" maybe she's right" very new to me and many more I think.

This is one fantastic track, how the hell Sam keeps turning tracks up like this I will never know but long may it continue.

So get posting the two new to you this year 60's & 70's tracks lets see the total quality tracks that are out there beeing played by the DJ's.

Not been anywhere venue wise since May due to new business venture and football so I'm a little out of touch with current play's...lol however that should change really soon, without question two tracks taken from the 1966 Capitol 'Little Willie John' David Axelrod and HB Barnum session's which never came out at the time are just about as good as it get's for me, storming Northern in your face with an R'n'B tinge/flava, 'Country Girl' aka 'Home At Last' and the superb 'Early In The Morning' been playing these two stunning tracks on the show in recent weeks and I'm sure someone must be playing them out and about? if not there is something very wrong as such tracks are begging to be Played, authentic recordings in the style we all love.

Message to Mr Croasdell.........If you are working on any further Kent Select 45's then these two belters would make for a very nice double header indeed.

Val Palmer spin at the 100 Club back in the 8Ts and a London spin at Capitol/ TOS/ Scenesville etc - fabulous tune and great bit of Detroit :ohmy:

For me this year, it's been Lloyd Price - Oh Lady Luck on Monument (not to be confused with his earlier and very similar title 'Lady Luck') and The Sensations ft Yvonne Baker 'It's good enough for me' on Junior - thanks to Alan H for that....can't wait to hear what 2009 brings :-) Top cheapie (thanks to Den @ Willington) was The Imagination 'Love Diet' on 20th Century - I'll be there with my note book jotting down his superb selection @ Willington this year on 27th December :rolleyes:

Pretty sure the reason I avoided it or didn't find out what it was is because I thought it was modern!
