My vinyl copy arrived today. Highly recommended and very well done to Kent. Great packaging, astutely chosen tracks, top class sleeve notes by Mr. Rounce and sparkling sound quality. Thank you.

Yes, he definitely was in LTD, although not for that long and he didn't sing as many leads with them as he should have...and yes, also, in Love, Peace & Happiness...

Leslie Wilson was always in my top five favourite singers and should be - but probably won't be - remembered as one of the finest soul singers of all. As Roburt says he was great on "The Mighy Army" but he was even better on the classic New Birth sides such as "Been a long time" and " I can understand it". R.I.P.

A really top class singer. It always sounded so easy for him. R.I.P.

And you can read all about nearly all these LP tracks in my books ! I hope Mike doesn't mind my mentioning it here. I haven't posted up about them for years..it may well be that some people don't know about them. PM me if interested. Best John

Not a record, but I would like this CD if anyone can help please. None for sale on discogs or ebay. Thanks John

A genius and a great hero of mine. R.I.P.

I think you are quite right. In the near future if you play someone on this forum ten records they didn't know in random order - five being AI and five being "genuine" - I bet few of us will be able to distinguish which are which. And that's us. Your average music fan most definitely won't get it right. Nor will they care.

I posted on one of his youtube records a couple of months back pointing out that all this stuff was AI produced. They took my comment down pretty quickly. And, anyway, most people couldn't care less so I was probably wasting my time .

Many of these soundtracks can be quite expensive, mainly because collecting soundtracks is a "thing" in its own right, so not just soul fans who seek them out.

A brilliant artist. "The Beginning" LP is simply fantastic. As were so many of her other records. RI.P. Ann..

I don't think he is white, but am not 100% sure. What I do know is that, somewhat surprisingly, given what else is on there, this single is on the juke box of the Fred Perry store in Covent Garden. 😅

Totally forgotten, or never even known in first place. I played this superb record at the Uckfield soul night three years ago and completely cleared the floor. Not one single person dancing to it.

Did he buy it from Rod Dearlove? I'm pretty sure Rod was first person to have it...he mentioned it in an old copy of Voices From Shadows....

Yes, a lovely show with great records throughout....R.I.P Timmy
