Last LP from these guys (circa '74 on the Sound of Philadelphia labelCompleted by Hysear Don Walker collection, both his albums are mellow heat Isaac Hayes & David Porter produced southern soul effort. Pre-dates the Ollie Nightengale LP by a couple years Theres a nice cover of By the Time I get to Phoenix and some Wilson Pickett trackOriginal mono pressNot as good as the Minifaldo Reynaldo LP. But the very last track is an odd intrumental psych numer I'm digging Mid-70's soul funk release on a Los Angeles label. features Toussaint sining. One side is good, the other, not so much Original Duke pressing 3 Dynamite tracks on here. this is the first time I picked up a Jackie Wilson 70's release, makes me curious about his other ones

    I don't know how consistent the albums are, but his "Shake A Leg" 45 is banging 70s funk that I was pretty surprised by when I first heard it.

    All the later Jackie Wilson LP's I have (and I don't have
    the one you found) contain at least a couple of killer cuts.

    Dude was kinda the truth. Best of all was his stage action:

    I got some ok Aussie 45s for cheap yesterday.

    Doug Parkinson - I'll be around 45
    Healing Force - Golden Miles 45
    Renee Geyer - Be there in the morning 45

    and a few other ok titles at $2 a pop. Pretty bad though then you consider they came out of a radio station lot of 6,000 45s and that was the best of the bunch!

    Great mbalax from senegal. Raw as hell

    Got this coverless sealed copy thanks to a strutter. Opened it and am loving it

    Amazing soulful gospel

    I have another Hopson Family lp and this one sounded just as amazing

    Old Belgian comp of Mahmoud Ahmed's 70's material

    Early gospel comp with some doo wopish vocals. I've been on a gospel kick lately (can you tell?)

    Finally found an OG copy for a good price. Indy Cali Soul/Blues monster

    I'm always looking for good african stuff and this lp comes correct with some great Juju

    From Guinea. These guys put on some guitar fireworks

    I needle dropped in the store and dug this early R&B comp of his classics

    Ungoogleable gospel pearl on Champ. Mindblowing

    These songs are currently stuck in my head

    Fiery and dynamic sermon with upbeat ending. Sunday morning classic

    Nothing is better than spending a day going through tons of boxes of 45's, buying the ones you loved, and playing them back at the house with some beer, and some friends

    a bunch of 45's some highlights include:

    The Vanguards -- The thought of losing your love/It's too late for love (Lamp)
    Lovelites -- How can I tell mom and Dad (Nitia)
    Syl Johnson -- Come on sock it to me/Try me (Twilight)
    Bob and Earl -- Deep down inside/Oh baby doll (Tempe)
    J.R. Bailey -- Love love love/Too far gone to turn around (Toy)
    Joyce Harris -- No way out/Dreamer (Infinity)
    Jackie and the Starlites -- Lonesome Boy/Valarie (Lana)
    Lightnin' Hopkins -- Hard to love a woman/Back to New Orleans (Prestige Bluesville)
    Vernon Garrett -- Christmas Groove/Merry Christmas Baby (Glow Hill)
    Benny Clark's Blues Band -- Lasting Love/Rent Party (Fair Play) (one of my current fav's)
    Alvin Robinson -- Something you Got/Searchin' (Tiger)
    Jackie Lee -- Bring it home/Glory of Love (Keymen)
    Tommy Bush -- Some leaving alone/Letting it all hang out (Black Prince)
    Jimmy Johnson -- Now looking back (Magnum)
    Henry Lumpkin -- Mo Jo Hanna/Break Down and sing (Motown)
    Willie "The Moon Man" Echols -- Here comes the night pts I and II (Good Sound)

    Doug Parkinson - I'll be around 45

    killer and sought after modern soul record!
    sounds like Lemmy pretending to be Freddie Mercury, and has a hamfisted guitar solo, but the overall feel is pure soul IMO

    Not by a long shot....the nathaniel mayer is better than all of those LPs put together. BTW TWO Nat Mayers on the strut!!!??!? I am what the becky's refer to as "J"....That LP is rare as snake feathers and one of the greatest, rawest Detroit R&B LPs evar...hell, it is the greatest.

    i had to sell them. 2 good tracks per lp. the rest is really not better than any other LP on Calig that I've heard. Catch Up 1&2 are getting cheaper at the moment, so I'll check for them.

    I'll remember your want!

  • skelskel You can't cheat karma 5,033 Posts
    Thanks!

    I know there's some killer high tempo phased synth jazz on there.
    I need it like the very air that we breathe.

    Asha,
    the 12 is "fast loot tactics" hard to find philly random rap
    autosalvage and grant green were cheap

    easy mate. i called u because i wanted to know if the hammond explosion from dieter reith was any good. got it for a euro in the end, so all cool.
    next week aight.. shame u not in town tonight, playin on a nice party.

    re topic: those "catch up"s are quite ok, but all the other greger junior stuff is just so weak. i once djed after one of his concerts, he played stuff like "samba de janeiro" in a jazz vein. had to go throw up several times.

    What an annoying thread this has become. Just give Grope his stupid medal for 'Honeysuckle Breeze,' and restart the weekend finds somewhere else.

    haha! yeah, i cant tell if these foreign dudes are fighting or what. but euro dude fights are kinda funny. its like the innernet equivalent to taking off your driving glove and going across dudes face with it.
