Central Soul Club Spins

		ROSE BATISTE “I Miss My Baby" (Revilot) A real powerhouse of 60s Detroit Soul! Flipside "Hit and run" probably better known, though I definately prefer this SOLID HITBOUND production. Raw and storming with real pressure, irresistably pulling you to the dancefloor, Northern Soul at it's best



		PAT BROWN "The good got to suffer for the bad" (SEVEN B) 60s Soul with a R'n'B flavour from New Orleans, arranged by one of the city's musical masterminds EDDIE BO. According to my colleage Uli, the label SEVEN B stands for seven brothers meaning Eddie and his six brothers (believe it or not).



		SAM DEES “Lonely for you baby" (SSS INTL.) Being the first release of the highly talented Mr.Dees, this officially labeled B-side shows us the power of the dark side. Beginning with a frightening bassline, one of the best midtempo drum rythms of all time and culminating with the blending of Sam's voice with the horns, this is a monster classic. Words are no more use here-LISTEN!.



		DRAMATICS “All because of you" (SPORT) An early DRAMATICS release of the 60s and rather in a punkrock vein than in the sweet 70s soul moods of the Philly Sound era, they are usually known of. Coming with roaring guitars and smashing drum kit, this number really kicks in (wherever you want).



		DARROW FLETCHER “What good am I without you" (JACKLYN) A storming uptempo piece of Chicago 60s Soul from one of the younger heroes of that time. One of Darrows rarer sides with Chicago typical string arrangement, produced and co-written by none lesser than DON MANCHA



		DOROTHY MORRISON “I can't go without you" (BROWN DOOR) 70s Soul doesn't come much better than this. An infectious bassline with superb rythm and Dorothy's powerful voice makes this one of 1975's best releases. Divided in two parts on A and B side, this is real listening pleasure.



		NEW YORKERS “Don't want to be your fool" (TAC-FUL) For all you American Football friends (incredible label artwork)one of the rarer LA 60s Soul releases (also released without the football players).An unusual, latin influenced rythm with probably latin male group? I wonder why a LA group called themselves NEW YORKERS



		WILLIE TEE “First taste of hurt" (GATUR) A fantastic piece of New Orleans Crossover Soul from this musical multi talent. Sadly passed away in 2007, this is written, produced and performed by Willie in best form.
