Did Ashford & Simpson's version ever get played out?

Looking for a good clean copy of this Thanks Kev

Saw this on Facebook

He's on Solar radio now https://www.solarradio.com/richard-searling/ Kev

All your little faults I get so mad about Are the very things I can't live without. I can't get along without you anymore The Monitors - I can't get along without you

This fits the description except there's only 23 tracks Kev

Is it this one Just seen it's not this one on the other thread

I've got it, but won't be able to scan until I get home this evening. It has the Hitsville building on the front cover. Kev

My first experience of soul music being played out was The 66 Club in West Kirby, Wirral in 1969 when I was 16yrs old. Stuff like Flamingos Boogaloo Party, Roy Head, Jnr Walker Pucker up Buttercu. Wish I knew where the dj's collection ended up.My sister (4yrs older) was going out and dancing to early Motown, Geno Washington, Otis Redding, Oscar Toney Jnr etc when she was 16 Kev

I wish Dennis, I had hundreds and my mum threw them out when I left home. Still got all my Blues & Soul mags though. Kev

You mean these? Kev

I remember first hearing Father's Angels after seeing it advertised in B&S and was so disappointed. Hated it and still do. Kev

All by label, because that's what I picture when I think of the record. Then alphabetically within the label. All Motown together etc etc Kev

Where was Edward Hamilton - Baby Don't You Weep first played. I bought a copy from Record Corner and sold it at Wigan, before I ever heard it played anywhere. Kev

You can't beat Anchor Man for "Jazz Flute"

You're right, the Junior Walker version was played early doors next door off the album and came out on the b side of Take me girl I'm ready in 73/74 Kev

We couldn't get half the people on this site to nominate artists into the hall of fame, so I can't see us getting anywhere trying to compile a cd! Kev

I'd like to hear it please. Very good chance I was there that night. Kev

Post number 3 in this thread. Ha ha. Great minds and all that... Kev

What a great website. Thanks Ian, Funny, because the first track I thought of from 1971 was King Floyd - Groove Me and there it was at the top of the list! What a great year for soul music it was too! Kev

Hard to tell. Try No Mercy O C Smith Lisa Stansfield they all did versions of Player's record. Kev

Nothing stamped in the run out, just scratched MM 1028-1. I seem to remember it being played at Wigan, possibly even where I bought it from. Kev

Thanks Kev, I'll listen to it in full tonight. Funny how a search for Major Lance has opened up an interview with Pam Sawyer. When was it done? Kev

Whilst looking through the Blues and Soul mags of 1973 looking for Major Lance details, I came across this interview with Pam Sawyer (No 102 Feb 2-18th 1973) which makes for really interesting reading. Kev

Been through 1973 B&S mags and the one he cancelled (referred to above)was 27th August ( see photo). he was booked for The Top Rank Rank Hanley, Sunday 25th february 1973, but I cant find anything that says he didn't turn up. He was over in the UK in June of that year but doesn't appear to have been booked for Tunstall. Kev
