Awesome Chris. Is it Pookie Hudson?

It's orrible! But there are a couple here - https://www.discogs.com/sell/release/5115190?ev=rb Peter

Nice on Steve. Billy and Otis - Peter

Now you are pissed! I always like to use the term obscure soul as when I try and explain to people they say "oh, that Motown stuff". Nowt wrong with Motown I guess but that isn't what I like. If you get my drift. Obscure soul could be interpreted as a bit poncy and pretentious I guess. Nice

The yellow ones look really nice - a thing of beauty. Peter

You mean muddled! And you've not even finished your first bottle of Rioja!

Love all the lyrics of Mr Bojangles - and Nina is Queen. "He danced for those at minstrel shows and county fairs throughout the south He spoke with tears of 15 years of how his dog and him but just travelled all about His dog up and died, he up and died, and after 20 years he still grieves Mr Bojangles, Mr Bojangles, dance. Simply beautiful. https://youtu.be/eAW3y5l6Dm4

As I said at the beginning of the thread I wasn't really intending to comment on the actual event - rather what the two geezers had to say etc. And to see if anyone knew them - just out of interest. I live in Nottingham so it may have been of more interest to me but the thread has generated some discussion.

I don't think anyone has suggested that anyone is being mislead.

Phew!

Your ahead of the game me old mate. I don't even know what spotify is! Peter

Must be good then Steve!

Don't hold back mate - say it how it is!

Obviously not the same Alan - this one is leader of the labour group at Notts County Council. https://www.nottinghamshire.gov.uk/dms/Councillors/tabid/63/ctl/ViewCMIS_Person/mid/383/id/64/Default.aspx

Just thought it was interesting - just up the road from me which is why I spotted it. Great to hear from you and Di, Harry. Sending you all my love. Pete

Just thinking exactly the same - nice that! How's things Mr Swiftness. Peter

I'm posting this in here as it's more about what these two guys have to say than the actual event - hope that ok. Not bothered about ovo, and happy to play cd's and mp3s. Does anyone know them? I don't but I'm way out of everyone's loop. https://www.nottinghampost.com/Riverbank-hosts-soul-pop-party-Geno-Washington/story-26591720-detail/story.html Peter

Some info here Neil - it is The Elgins Peter

You're fecking doomed! LOL

Nice set Barry. Peter

Also worth checking out Ady's Kent series.

Some of Keb Darge's compilations are excellent too - although some of them are quite hard to locate. P

Ian's Backbeat series are very good value - with a range of styles from crossover, sixties, modern etc. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0062Y9CNE Peter

What sort of stuff Paul? 60's, 70's? Peter

I like it. I suspect it's one of those sides that are over looked a bit because of it's title. Peter
