The Pioneers----My good friend James Avons---Since i met you baby Tyrone Barkley----Man of value Flame'n' King----No happy day Archie Bell----Look back over your shoulder They are my top five records i have 1 a4 sheets of paper with all the songs on i like but all though it is top five i can only put the ones i like on it. I find it a shame i wouldnt be able to play them all at one venue or even fit them all onto here it would be to much for people to read any way

My Top 5, difficult to really select a top 5 as records come and go, but here's the ones that make the hair on the back of my neck stand up. In no particular order -
1. The Younghearts - A Little Togetherness. 2. Marlena Shaw - Lets Wade in the Water. 3. Sam Moores - Plenty Good Lovin 4. Joe Tex - Under Your Poerful Love 5. Marvin Gaye - This Love Starved Heart of Mine (Is Killing Me) ;D
Well there you go.

Joe Jama, My Life Jean Carter, Like One Sam & Dave, You Aint No Big Thing Luther Ingram, Baby Don't You Weep Early 60's to mid 80's Freddy

After 27 years of listening to Northern Soul, there are some records, which I never tire hearing:
1. 'It realy hurts me' - The Carstairs (Head and shoulders above anything else) 2. 'She'll come running back' - Mel Britt 3. 'I really love you' - Tomangoes 4. 'Shoes' - Bobby Bland 5. 'Call me Tommorrow' - Major Harris.
Five records is nowhere near enough. I've had to leave out The Van Dykes, Salvadores, Herbert Hunter, Platters (Washed Ashore), Bobby Hutton and loads of Motown, headed by the Four Tops 'Can't seem to Get You Out Of My Mind'.

Very difficult to pick 5 best (or 10 for that matter) but here's 5 that float my boat: 1. Tough Girl - Billy Arnell (can't find a DJ that's got it) 2. Make Sure - The Dells 3. 1000 Wonders - Archie Bell 4. Hung up on your love - Montclairs 5. Date with the Rain - Eddie Kendricks Putting this little summary together just get's me thinking about those I forgot like virtually anything by Brenda Holloway, Marvin Gaye, Isley Bros, Esther Phillips, Jackie Wilson et al TEXT
