Benny Harper "my Prayer"[harper Soul]
Thought you boys would all have one of these It hasn't really made it on the dancefloors to date. One for listening then methinks...

The Most Soulful Record That Made The Charts?
4 Tops "I Just can't get you out of my mind" "Call me" were the last words I remember When the Spring became December And I still got no reply. Politely I would ask whoever knew you, What is was that I did to you, But they all new less than I" or something like that!! Lambert and Potter magic!

The Best Dj In The World
To my mind Eddie's more of a northern guy than a modern guy Col - ex Scooterist etc., though obviously he had the Acid Jazz label etc. and has been involved in producing contemporary music for some years. Never really thought of him as a modern soul jock though.

Most Soulful Disco Record?
Agree with you there Steve - one I often play in the record room - never tire of it, though I play the 45 of course . Seems a lot of people actually like the Elipses then?

I love the other side of that - great stomper -- Black & Ward - Canadian Rca
Steve - if you don't get any luck I can put on CDr - agree with Pete Smith sentiments on this, and the vocals sound a bit weaker than I remember them when pounding out of "Russ' Everyman Sound System".....always quite catchy though- Not The Dj
How on earth can a DJ hope to break new tunes without the assistance of a mic to tell the audience what it is (even if it is covered )?....It's hard enough to break something these days even when sharing the title with the audeince....Oh I almost forgot, not too many DJs breaking new tunes these days . Also how does a DJ dedicate requests?.....garner enthusiasm "Letsbee Avenue" ala Delia / Russ Vickers...."Taxi for Sharon"..."Please leave by the nearest exit, do not collect your record boxes", "the next DJ is"... etc....there are enough no mic venues on the club scene without this essential piece of kit being abandoned in soul clubs. I say keep the microphone plugged in - if people don't want to use it, or can't then they don't have to.- One For The Modern Guys - Teddy P
Yeah promo only Phat Philly remix 12 is the version, in case any casual observers are thinking "I've got that on CD" - the CD version is pants. Agree it's played out, unless of course it crosses over to the northern scene- Lookin For Info On A ......70,s Track
Hi ya Gavin - Front room, then Ritz Desborough, Gijon Spain, Soul Essence and Without Boundaries at Easter.Plus the "Big O" was muttering something at Hatfield about a moddun night at the Plinston in the not too distant.- Lookin For Info On A ......70,s Track
Different Geezer entirely "O".- Lookin For Info On A ......70,s Track
Right I've found it - the B side is "Rat Race" - not the Leaders song (which is excellent funk) but his own composition. It's a bit like Aaron Neville "Hercules", so not really one for the dancefloor. Back to "All those lies" then! Gr8 70s track. May well give it a spin on Saturday.- Tape Recorders At The Wigan Casino
Is he still supporting Oxford Utd?- Fee Records

John also tells me he had some of this on Wand as well - wonder where they went? The problem at the time was there was so much stuff we couldn't afford to buy them all so had to pick and choose. Many of the things vanished, and have rarely if ever resurfaced.- Tape Recorders At The Wigan Casino

Yes styrene too - a 70's Monarch pressing (Delta numbers also) with horrible glue creases etc. But a great record, even if the singer is off key. Not sure if it is LA though, although it was pressed up on the W Coast. B side is funk but would need to play it ah home to remember how good / bad /indifferent it is. Might drop this in at the Ritz next Saturday (in the moddun room).- Crazy Things Dj`s Say On The Decks
"Now a fantastic soul record I haven't played for ages - Benzine and "Village of Tears"- Have A Look At This Label

The one I always love (so apologies to those that have heard it before) is Sam at Burnle All Dayer c 1983. "Next up Walter Jackson and "Touching in the dark" - dedicated especially to all the miners in here". - Wendell Watts
