I must have been in some of the same rooms as the same time as you Micky. Pity we didn't meet up. It was my first visit and I had a great time. There's something for everyone if you know where to look. I didn't discover the Spanish Hall until 1am on Saturday and wish I'd spent some more time in there as it was buzzing. Patti Austin was excellent. I found it quite emotional to hear her sing some of my favourite songs so close to me and her voice was superb. Here’s some notable records I heard over the weekend. Jalen Ngonda- come around and love me Sonny Til - tears & misery Sheree Brown- It’s a pleasure George Benson - my woman’s good to me Margie Joseph - I can’t move any mountains Maxine Brown - I can’t get along without you Wahoo - don’t take it personal Brian Cultbertson - Another Love Garfield Fleming - Don’t Send Me Away Enchantments- I’m in love with your daughter Broomfield- don’t cover up your feelings Johnny Bristol - love no longer has a hold on me Sunburst Band - Everyday Peabo Bryson - why don’t you make up your mind Dee Dee Sharp Gamble - nobody can take your place Jean Carne- time waits for no-one Renee Geyer - be there in the morning Brown Sugar- the game is over Walter Jackson- touching in the dark The Temptations- aiming at your heart Leon Ware - what’s your name Bobby Womack- home is where the heart is Parliaments - don’t be sore at me Sherrick - just call Don Gardner - cheatin kind Pat Lewis- no-one to love Eddie Parker - I’m gone Gene Toones - what more do you want Jobell - never gonna let you go Silvetti - spring rain
