Wow! Just discovered your blog and will definitely visit again! Thank you so much for Gino's Puppet, simply stunning and original too - I love that peculiar sounding instrument in the background (called "mungiga" in Swedish but I don't know the English word for it?)

I would be honoured if you would pay a visit to my humble blog www.jonosaudio.blogspot.com

Perhaps my compilation "Lose your blues and laugh at life" would interest you

All the best from a snowy Stockholm!

2009-02-12T10:52:00.000-08:00

Gino is great...it's not that often that an artist has recorded the same song twice, and had both versions come out equally good..

The Falcons cranked me today..Oh Baby is just beautiful..

the Bruce Channel hit the spot as well...love the drum/handclaps action...[when are handclaps ever bad?]..

i'm looking forward to seeing what you've got in store for carnival....

Gabe, I esp. liked this post. I have a digital file of Henry & Kasuals doing 'ONLY ONE'..Is this the flip of the one you posted?
Keep up the great posts Gabe. I just found your blog and am going thru each & every post.

2009-02-08T13:02:00.000-08:00

I always wanted to hear that Gloria Gaynor. It's a Lou Courtney/Dennis Lambert tune.

Another great set - thanks! W.

strange, i never think of Johnny Otis as having a nice voice...She's All Right is just beautiful...

love the Alpha Zoe...i've never heard of her before, but i'm totally jealous of the name..why didn't my parents think to name me that?..[not that hers did]..

Bo Diddley? the Temptations?..Gloria Gaynor? what can you say?....except thanks for the treats..

in general, even if i already have a copy of something you post [such as Mathilda] i'm very happy to replace it with a rip from a 45..

thanks..

That's a new Chris Kenner for me too. Pretty good. The only Little Charles I'm familiar with is he of the Sidewinders, out of NYC.

2009-01-26T10:33:00.000-08:00

nice follow up to the gospel mix..

the Little Charles is great....i've never heard the Chris Kenner before...i'm always ready for more Ikettes...the Bobby Moore is better than the only other song i have by him [Hey Mr. DJ]...

and the Johnny Adams?...fabulous..

you made my day, thanks...

Second Liner --

Thanks for checking on the Bobby Powell track. Now it's working right.

Amazing stuff, as usual.

all i can say is OMG...[no pun intended]..

i don't usually listen straight thru mixes when i down load them...must be something to do with my attention span...

anyway, you had me hooked from the get-go with this one...

many thanks..

2009-01-15T14:50:00.000-08:00

i just realized i have another version of I'm Gonna Leave You, also by Bobby Powell, but sung as a duet with Jackie Jackson...

it's very good also, comes with my recommendation..

2009-01-15T08:34:00.000-08:00

i played it and downloaded it and got the whole song both times. not really sure what it could be that is making it not do the whole thing for you.

2009-01-15T07:13:00.000-08:00

Thanks. I love the Bobby Powell too, but the track is only 14 second long. I've tried downloading it multiple times, but it doesn't change. Any chance you could re-check the track?

Your music is always fantastic. Thank you So much!!!!

2009-01-10T17:53:00.000-08:00

I checked the listing for James Brown in my Goldmine 45 guide and it lists the year for "Dancin' Little Thing" as 1964.

thanks for all the yall. its always good to hear feedback that folks are actually enjoying the time i put into it.

as far as the downloads (cooljerk), this specific post is a mix of a bunch of songs, but they are all grouped in the one file. if you right click on the "get down with it" link, it should let you "save as" to your desktop or specific folder.

i really enjoy the music you post...i was wondering why, though i've followed your instructions in an attempt to download some of the songs in this post, i was only able to download the entire mix and not any individual songs...any suggestions?...and thanks for the music, which, along with your lively annotations, i continue to listen to and read...happy holidays, steve
