AHHHH! I want that one! That's Earl Turbinton on sax - he was on Reuben Wilson's "A grovy situation". He played one of the most amazing and gripping solos I've ever heard at Professor Longhair's funeral. That's in the film "Piano players rarely ever play together".

Thaks SS1. A lot of that stuff is pretty duff. If you want to D/L one or two cuts, the one you MUST get is "Stupidity" - one of the great anthems of early (1963) soul. And of course "Sock it to "em, JB" BOTH parts. "Cry no more", if I recall, was pretty good too. I dare say you've got most of the other things on other compilations or whatever.

MG

PS Now I come to think of it, they missed a great one by not putting the A side of "Stupidity" on - "Can't nobody love you" - real heavy soul preaching. One of the 45s I most regret not keeping.

Oh, it's not something you can download, then. I certainly wouldn't get it for myself. Apart from "Stupidity" I've got all the ones I want on it.

The Mariners yesterday proclaimed their love the What It Is. This sign actually appeared after Richie Sexson's home run. Long live the funk.

[The Magnificent Goldberg]

I've got that - I like it a lot - though I think their live one, at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is slightly better.

Jim Sangrey doesn't reckon this much, btw.
