Superb ! Dann Penn and Spooner Oldham song

Got this in a Blues and Soul soul pack late 60's early 70's still does it !

First heard this played out by Paul Dalinson (Dally) at Soul Intent about 2008 ish great tune

Yes but probably not enough,mostly put on MP3 player for relaxing on beach and listening to.

I find it a bit dissapointing but great for the motown buffs David Ruffin probably my favourite

Anyone found a 78 of Darrell Banks on London yet ?

I think this thread has been done before but cant wait hope there are more 70's like this

it was released on the hard to find vinyl Anthology album by soul brother https://www.discogs.com/Esther-Phillips-Anthology/release/2113638

Always loved this Isley Brothers cover.

So here is Berry's list :- 1 Nat King Cole- Sweet Lorraine 2 Rachmaninoff - C # minor 3 Louis Jordan Aint nobody here but us chickens 4 Jackie Wilson To be loved 5 Smokey Robinson I'll try something new 6 Billy Holiday God bless the child 7 D Ross & Supremes I hear a symphony 8 Brandon Victor Dixon Can i close the door on love (From Motown the musical)

Another great Norman Whitfield recording but personally i prefer the Temptations version on Puzzle people Norman also recorded it on Marvin probably at the same session as Grapevine so i would have thought Isleys was the original

Can,t really see him picking many soul tracks except say Jackie Wilson but you never know , probably best chance Blues ,Doo Wop and Jazz depends how egocentric he will be.

Love this by the Dells but here is the original and So Cool ! such a talent Mr Callier

there is a you tube clip but I can't listen to it at the moment, here it is

Congratulations to Mark and Yvonne (Coe) on today's special occasion,they are getting married after many years of being together All the best for a great day and the future

i remember when Lou came into the radio room at Prestatyn, he started fiddling with all the control knobs on the mixer to get a better sound and at the time i wondered how the hell he knew on a strange set up he had never seen before what he was doing. I guess all the knowledge built up over the years never leaves you.

i would imagine that that happened due to good sales and a repress to meet demand as it was a hit .see below taken from song facts website In the UK, Smokey Robinson & the Miracles had a tough time finding an audience - "I Second That Emotion" made #27 in 1967, and a re-release of "The Tracks Of My Tears" hit #9 in 1969, but that was all they had for UK chart entries to that point. By 1970, their British distributor was so frustrated that he asked Karen Spreadbury, who was head of a Motown fan club in England, to pick a single from the Make It Happen album. She chose "The Tears of a Clown" - the last song on the album. The song was issued as a single in the UK and shot up the charts, rising to #1 in August, 1970. Motown took note and released the song in America a short time later, and in December it rose to #1 on the Hot 100, giving the group their first chart-topper.

Same great LP Kev Isle of sirens always loved it

Yep.

Just realized that the Demo and issue of Tmg 619 have different b sides,the demo has Stepping closer to your heart same as all other issues (US etc) but the issue has Since i've lost you which is great ! and its the only way to get it on 45 Why would they change the b side and has it happened on any other Tmg's https://www.discogs.com/Gladys-Knight-And-The-Pips-Everybody-Needs-Love/release/5977312 https://www.discogs.com/Gladys-Knight-And-The-Pips-Everybody-Needs-Love/release/8021605

I never touched my Adris

Bloody ell i was brainwashed and i thought i got into it all by myself

Would have thought it would be a motown single ie My Girl Temptations must have got a release in most countries producing 45s then reissued on yesteryear etc. then for the adverts and films it was in then on reverse of Stay 45
