    I think Denice Williams is great. I love Free, ‘Cause I Love You Baby, That’s What Friends Are For and I Can’t Wait.
  2. Very sad to hear this. He was always extremely nice to me whenever we met and will be sorely missed. RIP Paul.

    Mel & Tim - Forever and a Day
  4. RIP Sharon. So much great music and the gigs were awesome
  5. They're playing Manchester and Birmingham too
  6. I think a lot of London gigs aren't very well advertised either. I only found out last week that Trina Broussard and Kindred The Family Soul are playing at the Jazz Café on 20 Nov. There’s no mention of it on their FB page and it only got mentioned on their emails last week
  7. That's what I thought initially, then I remember collecting a Goldmine 45 of I Need My Baby on the door. Maybe that was a different night.

    I know what Jim means. It’s a bit cheesy to say the least. It may not be a flattering reflection of the NS scene but it’s arguably an accurate one in 2016.
  9. Good call Mick. Headline News was huge nationally at the time. I've still got the UK 12"
  10. Day to Day is brilliant. Is it his tribute to Herbie Hancock?
  11. Marvin Gaye - Where Are We Going (never mind the lack of 45)

    Pretty good selections by your man there. The Catalinas sounding very white and poppy but still has that northern feel
  13. Not one for the dancefloor but I'm loving the Lady Wray CD - Queen Alone. Those of you that like that Daptone retro sound will love it.
  14. Lots of fantastic tunes on this thread. One yet to be mentioned is Ben E. King - Gettin' To Me.
  15. I think they are some great records in there. A surprising amount of crossover/modern too. I know there has always been some big ticket records of that ilk, but is more money being spent of them now? There’s quite a few I don’t know in that list but think the rest would actually make a good playlist for a night out.

    The Dynatones – Fife Piper has got to be the worst ever. Some bad records have grown on me with age but I still can’t stand this at all.

    Far too young. RIP. He made some great music.
  18. Did anyone like the recent Maxwell CD? Seven years since the last one and it was disappointing overall. Some good moments though like "All The Ways...."
  19. As Mark quite rightly said, it's very soulful. It also includes some fantastic inspired cover versions of Stop On By and Turned Onto You. Gift of Love is my favourite tune of the year so far. This CD and his previous masterpiece, Eclipse, are arguably the best two of the decade so far. And I don't even really like house music these days
  20. it's been a good year in terms of solid CDs that are very good all the way or most of the way through. I've particularly enjoyed Regina Belle, Anthony Hamilton (brilliant!), Charles Bradley, Zo!, Goldswagger, Kindred The Family Soul, Frank McComb and Shaun Escoffery. Some great reissues or compilations such as Garland Green, Alton McClain & Destiny and The Wonder of Stevie Vol 3. The winner, by far, is the fantastic double CD from Louie Vega. Absolutely unmissable and is a work of creative genius imo.
  21. It was great. His current CD is one of the best I've heard this year.
  22. I'd love to read it

    It's playing in Hackney soon
  24. Excellent. Well done lads!
  25. Disaster. Some much good stuff in those archives. I may have to join Facebook
