  1. Does anyone have a good quality mp3 they could post please? Need to convince girlfriend of the gorgeousness of this record before spending this much
  2. Dayo replied to a post in a topic in Look At Your Box
    Has anyone got a good quality MP3 of Just loving you? Please thanks!
  3. First time I heard it was at Va Va (I think) which would have made it pre - Wigan
  4. Records were also covered up to put Soussan off the scent for a few weeks!
  5. What's your current or all fave? (MP3's welcome and appreciated) Currently for me it's Eddie Holman's I'm not gonna give up Incidentally, I've never really been sure how to define deep soul. I know these genres are fluid and it's all a matter of taste, but any thoughts? For example, would some of the Dells ballads do it for you? Always Together, for me, is a sublime piece of work with a gut wrenching vocal; deep enough to be labeled deep? Best Colin
  6. Hi All Just wondered what the going rate is for a nice clean copy of "Just Loving You" - Zodiac? There is definitely a hole in my collection that only Ruby can fill! Best Colin
  7. Whata bunch of wimps! The Orlons, Towanda Barnes, Vel-Vets.... Too fast???!!! When you'd popped a dozen Dexies, these tunes were mid-tempo floaters!
  8. Back around '74 I accidentally had Radio 2 on in the car. Swear to God I heard Yvonne Baker on the Jimmy Young show. Nearly gave me a heart attack! Found out next day it had just got a London issue. Twenty years later I was gobsmacked to hear Saphires "Gotta Have Your Love" on the Brian Mathew show (nice surpise I guess). My brother in law reckons Rosko played lots of goodies, but Jess and James "Move" stopped him in his tracks one Saturday lunchtime. I was reading another thread and it just set me thinking, what's the biggest soulful suprise you've ever heard while listening to mainstream (not specialist) radio?

    Soon after the London issue came out, I heard Jimmy Young on R2 playing Yvonne Baker! True... Hmmmm.... idea for a thread.....
  10. "O" (Cirque de Soleil) is an awesome, all enveloping, mind boggling experience but you'll need to book before you go, it's probably the most in demand ticket in Vegas. Check who's on at House Of The Blues. While I was there James Brown did a one nighter, but, sods law, it was the night I went to see "O". The Sunday gosepl brunch there is good fun though. Southern style soul food and a great bunch of resident gospel singers that will sho nuff git yuh sanctified! Recommended.
  11. It was awesome - what a night! Voice like a train and smack in tune. Made a total fool of myself worshiping the old fella on stage - but who cares? So glad we made the trip from Kidderminster. Colin
  12. Thanks for the input - will go on Saturday. Taking my non-soul (but learning) girlfriend. If anyone recognises me from my 32 year old avitar pic (I was 15) then I'll definitely buy you a drink! Col
  13. I spotted Dean Parrish is doing a gig in Brighton Nov 5th. Just wondered what his live show is like? Any thoughts on the venue and DJ line up? Info from the net pasted below . Thanks! Colin Northen Soul Legend : Dean Parrish Nightlife King Alfred Ballroom, Hove Sat 05/11/05 Fee: £13 The Soul Survivors proudly presents : "Northern Soul Legend : Dean Parrish"; featuring Steve Csordas, The Woons, Steve Mc Mahon, Si Bridger, Clive Rayson & Paddy Shevlin.
  14. When I knew the guy back around '73, John Harvey, aka Kojak was no kind of soul fan at all. His motivation was money pure and simple. Can't understand why anyone would rate him. If you want a man who really was ahead of his time, I'd go for Worcester's John Farrell. Not sure how many times he actually played, but I saw him bomb at the New 67 club in Wolverhampton around '75 (ironically, a gig promoted by Kojak). Anyhow, J.F.'s taste was just way too sophisticated for the footsee crowd and his dancefloor had tumbleweed. It was some years before the mid tempo goodies he played that night gained any kind of following.
  15. Did someone sample The Champion recently? I'm certain I heard it on the Moyles show as a talkover bed.....

    Was Pep the first to play this record out? I can't recall anyone else having a copy around '73. Massive Midlands fave back then.
  17. It's a guy called Don Imus who was probably America's first "shock jock". He's been broadcasting in New York for more years than anyone can remember. You'll still hear him all over the States as his shows are syndicated by NBC. No doubt he's available via the net too. Although not as wild as Howard Stern, he is known for being pretty sexist, racist etc. That clip probably comes from a "best of" compliation.
  18. You can make a CD in your office - you can't easily cobble together a vinyl disc. I don't think CD's will ever have the same toucy feely appeal.

    Welcome! I've learnt so much from the people on here; a knowledgable and very generous crowd. Hope you have fun - and please don't be shy to post. Colin
  20. Dayo replied to a post in a topic in All About the SOUL
    What a voice. If you haven't seen the clip yet, go there! She's still got it. Gave me chills. Colin
  21. Maybe I've been hasty, I dunno. I took it as a sick joke connected with Hurricane Katrina. Was I wrong?
  22. I'm sure there are other forums where sick jokes are welcomed.
  23. I'm also curious about this, although I suspect that another forum with more US input might shed the light we need. Were many of our northern favorites ever spun at Detroit houseparties, Chicago dance halls or early Philly discos? Be great to find someone who actually bought Johnny Sayles or Eddi Parker from a record shop as a new release, don't you think?
  24. Interesting post. Do you know if any airchecks exist fom these stations? It would be fascinating to hear some RnB radio output from the sixties.
