It's a funny song. Very catchy and instant. One I used to like a lot when I first heard it over 25 years ago. Now I think of it as a cheesy tune that may have got played on a 70s tv show. Something like "Love Is In The Air"

I didn't realise 5 stars should be the default unless there's been a problem. I generally only give 5's for total outstanding perfection. Otherwise, 3 or 4s. Perhaps that's my misunderstanding of the system.

Stuff like "Reet Petite" and "Don't You Just Know It" are late 50s recordings that have been played at northern dos. There must be quite a few others too. Oh, and Richard Berry too!

Sorry Mike this a thread about modern soul not punch ups in Brum which could command a 25 page topic in its own right in the freebasing section.

Subsequently followed by the three room divide - northern, 70s/crossover, modern - now that I didn't like and things got quite diviisive with factions all going their own way. I was quite happy with the two room divide. Best of both worlds.

I don't think I've had my subscription fulfilled either. It's had its day.

I don't know this one. Anyone got a sound file?

Looks great. A lot of the well known tracks have been out on CD before but there's quite a few that haven't.

In that case, albums by the following artists are usually a safe bet: Anthony Hamilton Jill Scott Erykah Badu Eric Benet Will Downing Maysa Angie Stone (last one (Rich Girl) was great!) Teena Marie (RIP - great posthomous CD - Beautiful) I could go on & on (like Eykah )

Steve, Would you like a list of artists that are making music that sounds old/trtro e.g Sharon Jones or artists that are making current sounding music e.g. Angie Stone?

I saw the London gig an agree it was fab. Nice to hear him perform songs recorded by others too like Summer Somethin', After The Dance and I Want You. Did you get some of Incognito as the backing band?

It wasn’t that bad. Quite reasonable entertainment. If they put real train spotters on there, then most of the general public would’ve been bored. At least a Donny Hathaway LP made it onto the Wall of Sound.

RIP Donald. Dominoes still sounds as great today as it did when I first heard it.

Get the CD for Holdin' On

RIP Fontella. I always loved Recovery and even Travellin' from her CD 11 years ago.

i prefer the flip!

Bobby Womack on Sunday hopefully.....

Or piling into everyone at the bar

Yes, that's right Barry. If you've already voted on Q1 but now want to answer the other two, you have to delete your vote and start again. Good poll. Very interesting.

It's not there anymore Mike

Are you joking?

I love it! Proper disco is fantastic

Sad to hear this. Loving You Is Mellow is a wonderful example of his output. RIP.

A bit longer than that I think. As far as I can recall, it was released to co-incide with the 1st After Hours CD which must have been 9 years ago.

I bet it's not as good as "Show and Tell"
