Especially for Peter - Harry Hippie , just brilliant Soul music .......

Also from the " My Perscription " album a great slice of crossover soul perfection.....

Thanks Peter , wasn't sure if anyone would like it except me , I do like the left field stuff , and Deeper ballads .Best ,Eddie

Right , don't laugh ,I think this is brilliant , Bobby's take on " Everybody's gone to the moon " .Great strings and you can hear the Sam Cooke influence in his awesome vocals .From the superb " My Perscription " set on Minit .Best ,Eddie

This is probably my favourite Bobby Womack record [ along with Harry Hippie ] . Millie Jackson's version on her epic " Caught Up " set is also superb . Best ,Eddie

Bobby's probably my all time fave Soul man , here's a personal fave ""Only Survivor " from his " So many rivers " set on MCA . Probably one of only a few Soul records to feature a banjo , saw him sing this live at Hammersmith Odeon 1985 - unforgettable !!! Best ,Eddie Mp3 deleted.

Agreed another fantastic side , "[No matter how high I get ] I'll still be looking up to you" on MCA .Best ,Eddie

This is one of my favourite Bobby Womack tracks ,penned by Womack with the legendary Patrick Moten [ ABKO Music Inc . / Ashtray music , Spaced Hands / Beverly Glen music publishing . The correct title is " Love has finally come at last " .Get the album " Poet 2 " - it's just a killer ............ Best ,Eddie

Here's a storming album track from The Ambassadors " If I'm all you got I'm all you need " , great sax break as well , Best ,Eddie if_i_m_all_you_got___i_m_all_you_need.mp3

Here's a great one from Honey and the Bees " Why do you hurt the one who loves you " [ Arctic 141 ] why_do_you_hurt_the_one_who_loves_you.mp3

Here's a good one from Barbara Mason : " Don't ever wanna lose your love " don_t_ever_wanna_lose_your_your_love.mp3

Flip side to " Carefare back " is good Deep Soul , same backing as Eddie Holman's brilliant " I'm not gonna give up " [ Bell ] Best ,Eddie

Really enjoyed the show this week Roger , always an education mate !! Best ,Eddie

Thanks for your interest , sure you'll enjoy the CD ,Best Wishes ,Eddie

Great new CD out this week from Jazzman records www.jazzmanrecords.co.uk " Sister Funk 2 " with 20 great tracks . Amongst the harder edged funk sides there are a few tracks that will appeal to Northern / Modern collectors : Rhetta Hughes " You're doing it with her " , a superb Mike Terry produced outing , Honey and The Bees " Love Addict " a wonderful Arctic label release , Big Ella " The Queen " which would go down well with the R& B crowd , Dolly Gilmore " Sweet Sweet Baby " , Barbara Mason's brilliant " You better stop it " another Arctic waxing , and the currently indemand ex Stafford side Florence Trapp " Love came into my life " .Great sleeve notes and label scans from compiler Ian Wright , one of the best compilations so far this year IMO .Best ,Eddie

Superb side Girth , it came out on a 7" as well as a CD single , this got a few plays at Thorne when it was released .Best ,Eddie

Thanks for some interesting replies folks , my copy is on the Atlantic distributed DPG logo .Would love to hear his other sides if anyone has mp3's of them . Best ,Eddie

Pulled out a ' 45 yesterday that I hadn't played for ages ,Sir Guy and The Rocking Cavaliers " My Sweet Baby " /" Funky Virginia " DPG 801 .The top side is in that Stafford crossover kinda style , whilst the flip side is in a great Deep Funk meets Northern vein , and far better than the title suggests .Any one got an opinion on this disc , and whats it worth ? Many thanks ,Eddie

That youtube video looks great Dave , can't wait to see the finished article .Best ,Eddie

The demo only has " how can something be so wrong " , will post a scan of the issue and mp3 if I get time over w/ end ,Best Wishes ,Eddie

I always thought the first UK Soul 12" was Undisputed Truth " You + me = love "[Whitfield ] Anyone confirm ? Best ,Eddie

Got Barbara Jean English " Comin ' or goin ' and Rose Royce " Best love " UK Epic after reading about it on here , Barbara is a beautiful flowing 70's side .Best ,Eddie

Yes Fort Laudedale , roughly translated as Uncle Simon I suspect !! He did play some great stuff in the early days tho ' Pain in my heart - Poppies and Stronger than her love -Flirtations were two records I heard via Russ .Best ,Eddie

Here's 4 of mine from postcards : Otis Clay ,Kim Weston ,Tony Clarke , Maxine Brown ,Best ,Eddie
