    I thought this was some Modern Soul LP?

    He's got an LP called 'Moving in the Right Direction' from 82 I believe and yes it's modern soul, but this track is different.

    while my ukele gently weeps.





    but for real, mine would be Jimi Hendrix's Bold As Love, to me, he's never sounded more poetic and intense than on that track

    rotterdam - downtown kingston

    So the band is named Rotterdam? interesting...

    2 sides of vocals (no dub) credited to "rotterdam"
    (flip side "i was born a rebel" also crucial)
    me thinks it is style "rotterdam" scott , but,
    alas his memory was foggy the night i hassled him about it

  • I like these in no specific order:


    Sam Cooke "Summer Time"
    Otis Redding "Dock Of The Bay", "Try A Little Tenderness"
    Pink Floyd "Fearless"
    Rhythm Machine "Watcha Gonna Do"
    Jimi Hendrix "Waterfall"
    Etta James "At Last"
    Eunice Collins "At The Hotel"
    Beatles "Across The Universe"
    Maze "Golden Time Of Day"
    Al Green "Jesus Is Waiting"
    Impressions "I'm So Proud"
    Van Morrison "Sweet Thing"
    Stevie Wonder "Don't You Worry Bout A Thing"

    Yes I realize this said single
    you try and narrow this list down to one
