I saw it a few weeks ago in LA, with some fellow soulies including a couple of folk that attended Wigan etc.....there were skeptics amongst us, but that soon turned into appreciation of a film that takes a good look at the experiences of one fellows voyage into musical discovery. It's gonna be tough to cram into 90 minutes a whole life's worth of friendships, discoveries, tragedies and everything that comes with the scene, but in our opinion, it was an honest shot at documenting the scene to appeal to all audiences. The music selection was on point, the acting was honest and homegrown, and the dance scenes were choreographed with passion. I'm sure diehards will have plenty of holes to pick at, but as a movie made from within the scene by soul music lovers, I recommend it 100%. 90 minutes ain't gonna represent a lifetime, but it's a damn good start.

The flipside to the United Sounds heavy hitter......

Going live tomorrow.....join us, please!

I was gonna mention something similar to this, but Mace has already posted on point. In this day and age, there's so many 'buyers' that are fleecing international sales, and not just from the US. Obviously no-ones insinuating that you had any intention of doing so, but if you just put yourself in the dealers shoes for a second, would you be happy mailing an expensive record without any stability if the customer had received the record or not? What Barry is trying to protect himself against, is that without a signature on delivery, there's no immediate proof of receipt....so easy for the buyer to claim back via paypal, and the dealers out of pocket whilst acting in good faith.

Please join me on dublab.com, Wednesday 22nd January @ 2pm US PST (10pm UK time), for the first edition of the Divine Chord Gospel Show 2014, as well as a special edition 45's of Fury with my guest Soulera5150. https://dublab.com/ For pt. 31, the gospel hour, we'll be pulling tunes that were big for us in 2013....45's and LP's that were so good, we're gonna pack 'em into one hour for a 60 minute recap.

Looks like it's a new recording of an old unfinished demo, from the website; "The release of Twin Cities Funk & Soul in 2012 saw the reunion of the great vocal group, The Valdons. Their first new 45 in 40 years is not to be missed. Based on demos the band recorded around 1971 but never finished, “Stop Wait A Minute Girl and “Watcha Gonna Do” were too great to leave on the shelf. Working with our house band, The Lakers, The Valdons have put together some mind blowing sweet soul!" And yeah, fantastic 45!

To close out the year, the show was divided into 3 parts.......section one for the more soulful and funk tinged moments, the second part being a spotlight focus on the superb Pinewood record label out of Virginia. And to close out, we spin 30 minutes of hard hitting vintage r&b. Thanks for listening!
