    OK< probably not in a Luther Davis style, but I quite like
    Final Seconds "Society" (I believe the label is Boo-Koo).

    Great mid-70s soul with nice vocal harmonies and lots of strings.

    A raw, rare and more Hipnotic style track in the Modern Soul/Boogie vein to keep an eye out for

    Oscar Perry - Body Movements

    thanks for your replies..

    I like "West Side Rock" more than "My Home"... thats too soft for me.

    What about some more dancefloor-styled tracks?

    Family Of Eve - I Wanna Be Loved By You
    Bill Brandon - We Fell In Love While Dancing (what is the diff between 45 and lp version? the 12" is not that good..)
    Larry McGee - The Burg
    Brothers Gilmore - I Feel A Song
    The Chosen Few - We Are The Chosen Few
    Courtail - ..time... (can't remember exactly)
    Willie J & Co - Boogie With Your Baby
    Record Player - Free Your Mind
    Rare Function - Disco Function
    Deep Heat - Do It Again
