WHAT Gavin ! .I know it turned up 5 years ago , For ,me its like Garfield Fleming on Rocket Juice ..What a singer ,knocks spots of that Tolbert 7inch too . sing it man "I CANT FIGHT IT" I need a mp3 of it too please ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Tad , I'll listen to the mix soon , at the Police station today , then more places to see Im afraid !!

If you ever get to hear C.Coulter "I cant fight the feeling" you will weep.. synth soul 80's and pure quality . Unfortunatly very rare

Maybe your right too , Tad . The Soulfulsaint can confirm , he found 3 copies in 1983

Anacostia - What Kind Of Love - Columbia Chalky , this is on MCA not Columbia , and quite a hard 7" to come by .. ..Hi Tad ..RE: Glenda Mcloud First issues DON'T have a bevelled edge to the run in groove

" Sam" by Rozay .on ISP from detroit .. :angry:

Yes indeed , Clarkie was the main reason to go to the 100 club .. other electro soul spins by him , Al Mcall "lock it up" James Cobbin , and Clarence Jackson on R&R ( has anyone got the 12 of Wrap it up)

Glenda Mcloud was accepted at Stafford and the 100 club , Mark .. Both hotbeds of the 60's hardcore mafia . Ian Clark played it every month early 80's at 6T's

Fair enough Steve that poll stresses that any scene needs to welcome new blood .. lol my endurance feat was only 15 years of not going out on the "Rare Soul scene " . Other emerging black music scenes were too good for me to miss ..

Steve G , I think you need to get out more ...... With the straw poll thingy

Just wondering ...Is there any Soul singers on this Forum ? Cheers Simon

Awesome selection ....... I'd say you did invent the Modern soul term .. ( I first heard the term metioned on the Northern scene 81 ) I suppose its like saying Trad jazz or modern jazz .

[ Bizarre indeed .. I once overheard someone say " I'm a first generation Modernist from the sixties, but I still buy the latest fashions today " Now that was confusing at the time !!! . ]

Did people actually call it Modern Soul at the Mecca ? I first heard the term used in the early eighties . and then Modern rooms popped up 81, 82 I think ?? It was even a strange term back then... as , in London it was just Soul old or new release ... Cheers Simon Murray

Modern Soul favs at the moment ( or is it Progressive Northern , a term given to me by a House Deejay friend ) Creators " I cant believe its true" Dells " Your Song " C.Coulter " I cant fight the feeling " Oscar Perry " Let me do it " James Day " Better days " Renee Diggs and Phill Perry " all my love" and theres more ......

Hey Dave , I remember you playing an Atlantic Starr.. Acetate ... One Love ... Boom Boom

Yes Gav , Im here .. Well remember Patch's , Martin AKA Soul Sam introduced it as the best soul release of that year or something ??.. Just been playing it , sounds great , easy to dance to . Is there a 12 of it ??

Well remember Patchs at Stafford .. brilliant record , the lead always reminds me of Lew Kirton
