A chronicle of Martin Luther King's campaign to secure equal voting rights via an epic march from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama in 1965. After seeking the help of President Lyndon B. Johnson and being refused, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and other civil rights leaders led marches from Selma to the Capitol building in Montgomery in March 1965. The first march, now known as "Bloody Sunday", took marchers across the Edmund Pettus Bridge and into brutal treatment at the hands of the police and others, hospitalizing seventeen. Despite the hatred, the marchers returned to the bridge two days later in peaceful response. In the weeks that followed, the marchers, now protected by armed forces, reached Montgomery where Dr. King gave his famous "How Long, Not Long" speech. 99% on Rotten Tomatoes http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/selma/ UK Trailer http://youtu.be/B74p2yHUHHQ Feature Video http://youtu.be/Aw1LUGXMfMQ DVD version reported as out May 2015 Soundtrack listing - format mp3 download only at moment? see the link at the bottom to preview/purchase all tracks 1 GLORY - COMMON & JOHN LEGEND 2 OLE MAN TROUBLE - OTIS REDDING 3 I'VE GOT THE NEW WORLD IN MY VIEW - SISTER GERTRUDE MORGAN 4 KEEP ON PUSHING - THE IMPRESSIONS 5 ONE MORNING SOON - JOYCE COLLINS & JOHNITA COLLINS 6 ALABAMA BLUES - J.B.

A here you are shout for a soon to be released EP from Kent titled The Stars of Money The blurb follows below along with audio clips of all 4 via the ace website, included one being first time out on vinyl by someone with a shredded wheat connection listen buy listen Stars Of Money Various Artists (Money Records) Label:Kent Format:7" Catalogue Id:LTDEP 018 Out 26 Jan 2015 This entry in our limited edition EP series contains four fine tracks from Money, a label famous for fabulous Los Angeles soul. Money’s biggest star was Bettye Swann, who scored an R&B hit with her debut 45, ‘Don’t Wait Too Long’. The follow-up, ‘The Man That Said No’, sold less well, despite Bettye appearing on the TV show Shindig to plug it. Its resulting scarcity has now put the original 45 into the three-figure bracket. The label’s most prolific male artist was the talented Bobby Angelle, whose stage show was reputedly a riot. Arranger Arthur Wright’s worked up some urgent instrumentation for Bobby’s Northern Soul favourite ‘Too Much For You’, and recycled the backing track for ‘I’ll Be A Soldier Boy’, which appears on vinyl for the first time here. The M&M’s & the Peanuts’ first single, ‘Lil’ Valley’, is a throwback to the doo wop days but with a bang up-to-date gang fight theme. Soul music became more sophisticated, particularly in production, by the early 70s when Delilah Moore’s ‘I’ll Just Walk Away’ was issued. Despite its sad motif, the record has a feel-good factor.
