Just why is someone emotionally retarded for holding an opinion? No one is denying that the musicians are good but it doesn't make it soulful just cause they can hit a note or too. I dare bet that many of the musicians are just session musicians, good at playing their instruments and not from a soulful background, as is the case of most of the funk brothers. Jack Ashford wrote in his book that most of the funks were from a Jazz background and had never played R&B, they were good enough to turn their hand to any type of music The intros topic was totally unrelated, at least there are some vocals to follow the intro....vocals that add the soul to what is basically some guys playing a few instruments Someone send me the Dee Dee McArtur track, have heard it but just want to refresh my memory before I say it ain't soulful (IMO)

The one on e-bay went for $1625. JM was £1900 I think. I think one was a demo one an issue.

He did other stuff on Panther.

It's on Panther. Kenny Burrell spins this version. He's the only one I know who does spin it. I reckon it's as rare as Martha Starr, if not rarer.

Which one I Know The Meaning? See more demos of this.

well bugger me, no one bougth it

Well we'll just ahve a little arguement then I owe you a glass of water for agreeing with me As it's christmas might even stretch to some of the black currant stuff you put in it

Well you've only an hour to go if you want the chance to get this "future" monster Dunno where the seller goes but I'd like to know the areas this is getting played F****** glad I don't go to the same venues as him

it's true. As for the ones you gave to Nick, knowing him he'll have sold them all for a tidy profit

Would have thought a few more than 2 - 3. Have seen two copies for sale on auctions in recent months, know of one that could be coming up for sale. Know of at least one more.

Without going through the catalogue I'd say the figure is mucxh higher. Most of the records were aimed at the white pop buyers. Granted there are many exceptions which you would expect considering they are mostly black artists.

Can remember that club, went there for a xmas soul night once. Used to stop over at some mates in Northampton, two brothers Gary and Floyd Zaboki (think thats how you spell it).

Certainly got spins at Stafford.

IMO Most of the funk brothers are Jazz musicians anyway. Also most of the motown output is middle of the road pop

I'd have thought some more besides Pete personally.

Disregard...f*** that, lets have an arguement...sorry debate IMHO....no they aren't soulful, never will be. Agreed they are good "Northern" and often good dancers but soulful nope It's the lyrics and the interpretation of those lyrics by the singer(s) who put the soul in the record (IMO)

£150ish. One on e-bay right now >>HERE<<

Patty & Emblems - He Said She Said & Johnny Parker - I Must Have Been Out Of My Mind aka What Do You Do Kents Ben Lee Philly Story. Brilliant pieces of soul .....just right for chilling out too

Good to meet you too mate

The sherbert has a lot to answer for doesn't it Shute does strange things to your hearing

Pretty fair to say yes Steve, bit like RCA.

Who is DJing does have some bearing on where I go. They don't have to be "names" many good collectors out there who have the balls to try and play something different and thats what I always look for, something different.

Would have thought in the region of £300

another....

Cheers Brett, will take you up on that offer one day. Can't refuse a full English
