Great track from a great LP 👍

Seems some people are missing the point here , I would think Levanna organised this event to aim it at a young audience , and to try and get herself and others away from the typical Soul night which is attended by mainly people of a more mature age . And that is the only way the youngsters are going to pick up the baton and carry it forward and not die out . Leave them to it , they seemed to be enjoying it which is what it is all about.

You mentioned you were buying re issues and some were of dubious quality , all uk legit re issues I have bought have all been excellent , I think the question was asked about the records you bought just to make sure you were not buying boots and to help you along the way in future.

Thanks for the reply , would you please give a update when you have read the book so I can make a informed decision whether or not to purchase . I have bought numerous books that set out on a good route but then seem to meander and run out of steam. I would much appreciate your or anyone else who reads the book to give a opinion on the book , hopefully it will be worth a purchase .

Is it a good read Ken and does gives a realistic impression what was happening in the year in question and maybe things to come . I am a avid reader of soul related books but this one has a small time frame and at £30 do not want to be disappointed there is loads of books out of here I could purchase but if this one is recommended by someone who has read it a purchase will be forthcoming .

Looking for a new place to cock his leg 😄

I'm out of here I will stick to the Cornelius Brothers off the LP played at 45 rpm with the added percussion that makes it better in my opinion .

And save you about £450 😂

Almost identical , just the Cornelius Brothers has a tambourine in it .

To have a one off sleeve that is a nice thing to put his Bloomfield demos, in a lot of bother for most people but we do not know his occupation but if in design , print , quite easy.

Not a great photo but this video sums up the destruction of healthy trees and trees are the great antidote to carbon dioxide

Just.a hunch about the sleeve he could work in the printing industry with access to the items need to make a professional looking sleeve The video is foreign I think, maybe it was released in that format in the EU ? 🥴

Maybe he has got nits 😂

2 Cornelius Brothers 45 version on discogs now. UA demo

Don't know pal could just be a one off sleeve made by the owner of the records who has access to professional gear . Me I will keep to the Cornelius Brothers

Charles Johnson , great record back in the day and played everywhere as I remember but it sounds so insipid now to my cloth ears .

No it's jazz funk 😂

Is this LP as good as the hype it has received ? I have only heard one track from it which did not blow me away .

I think the Voices From The Shadows article on x over as already stated by Chalky got the definition spot on . Good thing about this site is most people who come on.seem to have got tastes in all kind of soul music . To me I have no preference to any style of soul , a record whatever style I like that's enough for me .

Now my answer to the question , nowt in it myself both fine vocalists so it would be down to personal favourite records by the artists in question again hard to separate so I will call it a draw on my scorecard 😂

The posters question is a bit cryptic but I think he wants to compare the 2 artists he mentioned. Beat me to it 👍

Parliament's " Don't Be Sore At Me " bw. " All Your Goodies Are Gone " . Cheapie and two all time faves .

Does not get better than " Ask the Lonely " the acapella version also takes on a new meaning to the great song . Glad I got the chance to see the Tops in the Seventies a couple of times and they were great live too.

Thanks for this one and all the others .
