interesting it could have a reverse effect if the re-issue experts are then playing on the same playground as the bootleggers then they could in theory blow them out of the water

smiling as my recollection was similar to yours and so was hoping someone remember it more that rings a bell, though was it not played via their tv at the time, that's all i could remember 3 points Was a nice refosoul post, certainly first time i've heard it or of it what else was on the lp looks like the winstons are starting to pull away unless the workday crowd give oc and the rest a push will let it run to midweek to all those who voted and/or commented so far

oc smith for me it just sounds more joyus (?) err celebraterly (?)... uplifting if you know what i mean give yourself 3 triva points if you can name/describe the episode of the simpsons it was once played 0 if you can name which version - has to be the winstons dosen't it one bonus for me with the two 45s is that both have decent worthwhile flips

this is how you embedd a refosoul clip into a forum post

never see the "where you get ears on" factor in threads like this as in the difference it makes where you hear things eg difference hearing it via fred carno pc speakers, on a decent hifi or out at a event loud and proud certainly does make a difference imo and so sometimes find it bit odd that people are so quick to jump into dislike mode on first hear via a pc back in the past never really got into marvin gaye 70s till moved on from dansette to a decent stereo similar sort of thing ?

only if ya wearing drainpipes with 4 inch turnups, baseball boots and of course your hair to ... SKULL SNAPS - I'M YOUR PIMP - GSF 1973 - HAROLD MELVIN & THE BLUE NOTES - GET OUT - yep one of the classic f*** off types going to keep handy for next time get a cold sales call H B BARNUM - HEARTBREAKER - aint heard this for ages, good to hear it again, good one

thats the spirt, menacing and moody PARLIAMENTS - ALL YOUR GOODIES ARE GONE - upped in refosoul 3 years ago by pikeys dog lot of other members have took time and effort in past with upping clips over the years feel about time we start giving a bit of acknowledgement to that DAVID RUFFIN - RODE BY THE PLACE (WHERE WE USED TO STAY) -
