Ever Given Up Soul?
Just about to give it up properly for the first time ever. I've had a few absences before, but going to Jack it in for real this time. It's not the same anymore, doesn't Igive me a buzz these days. Too many played out do's together with "emperors new clothes" type stuff on the other side of the coin.

Soul Purpose Records
Both. The reason I set up this new imprint is because my other label - Soul Intention has become more focused on a 70's groove. Whereas Soul Purpose will be pretty much all 60's stuff, with reissue and previously unreleased material sharing the same 45. (on opposite sides of course) Our first release, which will shortly be announced, is an absolute corker! Even if I do say so myself

Cheers. I've tried it now on a PC, laptop and an iPad and it works fine. I'll investigate some more.

Paramount Four - You Don't Know - Southern City
Great record. I used to play this for a short while at Bradford Queens Hall back in 1988/89. Never got much of a dancefloor reaction back then. Phil

Marie Knight - That's No Way To Treat A Girl On Soul City/you Lie So Well - A Question
The ten releases I was involved with (SC123-133) weren't boots. The later ones mostly were, I believe. The ten I did (with Chris King), were done with both the knowledge and blessing of Dave Godin. We even had him signing sleeves along with Barbara Lynn at the Cala Gran Fleetwood weekender! There were comparitively few of the Marie Knights that got out with the labels reversed. We couldn't re-do them as we only had 500 or so pairs of labels printed for each single as they were limited to a pressing run of 500. Cheers Phil

Hypnotics - Now In Stock
Soul Intention is proud to announce the release of the second great 70's double-sider from Kent Washburn's Emkay Records Catalog, "One Way Ticket" bw/ "Don't Burn No Bridges" by The Hypnotics. https://www.soul-intention.co.uk/release.htm The producer, Kent Washburn, has this to say.... "Both sides are kickin' Soul sides from the mid 70's, which feature the very unique voice of James Thompson singing lead", states Washburn. "I originally produced this group for the Warner Bros label, (Reprise). Their two WB releases, (Beware of the Stranger bw/ Girl You Know That I Love You, and Dance to the Music bw/ Memories) were national R&B charted singles, and were what actually established my career as a record producer. I am really pleased to be able to have the rest of their catalog finally released to the public." "When I hooked up with them (The Hypnotics), James Thompson was already a very successful songwriter, working with the legendary Gene Chandler out of Chicago. He had numerous cuts on Gene, plus Mel & Tim, The Impressions, Barbara Acklin, Betty(The Cleanup Woman) Wright and Krystal Generation. But he wanted to get back in the public eye as an Artist. His first group, The Voicemasters had recorded for the Bamboo Label, but the success that they had was somewhat limited and he was looking for a bigger platform to expose his songwriting abilities and unique vocal ideas. We gathered together the "St Louis A-Team" session musicians - Westmoreland Co, and went to work. We did use the legendary "Tom-Tom" Washingtom from Chidago as horn & string arrnager on some of the first stuff we cut, but the majority of what we cut was arrnaged and produced by James and myself. I love working with James. He is a true musical talent, and if things develop properly, don't be surprised if you get to hear some current sides that James and I will do. (Keep your fingers crossed

Combinations What 'cha Gonna Do On Kellmac
All very complicated. All I know is I didn't win it and I'm gutted, as if I'd been a tiny bit quicker off the mark I would have
-
Combinations What 'cha Gonna Do On Kellmac
Yeah. I just love the last minute manual bidding though, just like a real auction. However, this experience has left a sour taste. So maybe sniping is the way forward.
-
Combinations What 'cha Gonna Do On Kellmac
Exactly! All the other bids I put in 8088, 8188, 8288 etc were all beaten by $100. The $8488 was only bid up to $8500 which tells me that was his max bid
-
Combinations What 'cha Gonna Do On Kellmac
Now I need to get a sniper! I was bidding and rebidding up to the end. Put in $8488 with 13 secs to go. Outbid to $8500 which was obviously the bidders maximum bid, put in $8688 and didn't have time to get my bid in
