Love Jerry Butler's "One Night Affair". I remember hearing it on the air in NYC as well as on The Spice of Life LP back in 1972.

PS: Hope that Universal still has the masters of TSoL so we can...

More from The Contours:
"The Limbo Is Here To Stay", "Let's Do The Uncle Willie" & "He Couldn't Do The Crossfire (aka 'He Couldn't Do The Monkey')".
And: Martha & The Vandellas-"The Jerk"

Roy C.'s "Impeach The President" is probably getting some renewed attention after last week's events. Another song to consider playing right now is The Contours' "It's So Hard Being A Loser" (since...

Agreed! He's always been this way ever since he started running for office back in 2015 (remember back then, he said he would not accept defeat and he would call for a riot). Now that he's lost...

Thanks Woodward for the wonderful news! I'm looking forward to the Billy Stewart Documentary when it comes to PBS next month.

Gerry Marsden, frontman of the British band Gerry and the Pacemakers and singer on hits like “You’ll Never Walk Alone,” “Ferry Cross the Mersey” and “Don’t Let the Sun Catch You Crying,” has died at...

We can guess & speculate on this but I think this is something that Adam White could discuss on his West Grand Blog. He could get with someone who worked at Motown at the time and provide info on...

That's a good point. I guess they made exceptions for Marvin Gaye's Trouble Man & Smokey Robinson's Big Time soundtracks which both came out on the Tamla imprint.

I don't know if there's any explanation for why Motown artists were switched from one of the label's imprints to another. I remember there was a thread on this forum that had a list of acts whose...

Wow, this is great news. Thanks for sharing Luciano. Congrats to Darlene Love and her holiday classic "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)".

Just did a quick check on the Deluxe Edition of Supremes At The Copa and unfortunately, it's out of print. Only way to get it now is through eBay or on MP3.

Yes; "Finders Keepers" was also released in stereo in the US. And this is the first single from Invictus to be distributed by CBS Records (they had been previously distributed by Capitol Records)....

Great; thanks for sharing blackguy69. I remember seeing this on Soul Train back in '73. IMHO, "Finders Keepers" was the last great single by Chairmen Of The Board.

Good news; the Expanded Edition of Supremes A Go-Go is still available! If I were you, I'd grab a copy soon before it goes out of print.

My pick is the Expanded Edition of Supremes A Go-Go (thanks to the SupreMix of "Love Is Like An Itching In My Heart").

Wow! Thanks for posing this clip Blackguy69. One of my favorite cuts from Syreeta's Classic 2nd LP.

PS: "I'm Goin' Left" should've been a big hit!

...

My pick is "Custer's Last Man" by Popcorn & The Mohawks (from The Complete Motown Singles, Vol. 1). I know this song is from the period in the early '60s when novelty songs were big however, this is...

Thanks Roger. Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to you & yours.

So sorry to hear about "Ecstasy" from Whodini. RIP.

Never saw this clip before! This was fun; thanks for sharing Boogiedown.

Thanks for the info! I look forward to seeing these performances from Ebony Affair on YouTube.

Big thanks to jsmith for his posts on the Ebony Affair TV series. This show was just about lost to history and now we have clips with great performances from the series.

I watched Ma Rainey's Black Bottom on Netflix yesterday and it was great! Standout performances from Viola Davis, Glenn Turman & the late Chadwick Boseman.

The Grammy Hall of Fame has announced its 2021 inductees. Among the broad range of 29 singles and albums are recordings by the Beastie Boys, Pearl Jam, Issac Hayes, Billie Holiday, and Linda...

Thanks for sharing the interview with Cindy Birdsong, Jack020. Very interesting piece in which I found out that Cindy is still friends with Diana Ross.
