Two of my faves from one of the most consistent artists of soul music, a true legend.
I'M A GOOD WOMAN = BARBARA LYNN.
I DON'T WANT A PLAYBOY = BARBARA LYNN.
Could well be the track mentioned above by Pete S ,the track in question starts off as its going to be a ballad then launches into an uptempo number , its from a stage show.
Got those two , just listening to the Queen Emily on Spotify and will purchase a copy we need to support artists of this quality plus of course Malaco who continue to produce Southern Soul.
Thanks for the tip Sean with those talented guys contributing it should be a good un ,hopefully as good as Dorothy Moores More Moore definitely be getting a copy . Malaco rules.
I love the Darryl Banks alternate version of I,m The One Who Really Loves You where he seems to clear his nose then says I,m the one, then someone in the studio starts to count in to the start.
The Three Degrees were in The French Connection . Don,t know about Mel Britt in National Lampoon but the great soul/blues artist Robert Cray was in it.
I think i remember where this was from it was not a film piece , but a interview i think on SoulGuy radio with T im Ashenbende talking about the artists he had met. Her real name was Gardenia Barnes. Sorry for any confusion .
Almost certain i,ve seen a film piece on the web talking to i either Dena Barnes daughter or sister which confirmed she was dead . Think the said piece was about Duke Browner and his productions , can,t remember where the fook it was though.
.This has been a fave of mine since the seventies, tlme has not diminished it's greatness to my ears, the LP from which it came is also a classic.
THE DRAMATICS = NOW YOU GOT ME LOVING YOU.
Could post up hundreds , but i'll settle for these two JOHNNIE TAYLOR = CHANGES and LITTLE MILTON = LET ME BACK IN , two powerhouse records and both cheap.
JOHNNIE TAYLOR =
LITTLE MILTON =
A wonderful artist who has made records across the whole spectrum of soul music . This one is one of my many faves from this great soul man.
Bobby Patterson = Recipe For Peace .
