Emmet's notes!

1. Frankie Laine - Rocks and Gravel
Atmospheric 1959 reworking of "Early in the Morning" by Franie Laine with Alan Lomax's adapted lyrics. Real deal version of this on Lomax's Parchman Farm Prison Recordings Vol. 1
 
2. Evelyn Freeman conducting The Exciting Voices and Orchestra - Water Boy
Pure heat on the flip on the "Didn't it Rain" 7".... seek out all Evelyn Freeman recordings.
 
3. Frank Minion - Watermelon
Mr Minion pounding the streets of New Orleans selling his wares. Very elusive record on the amazing Bethleham label. Thankfully available as a great double sider reissue 45
 
4. Don Rondo - Quiet Girl
His official Jubilee Records biography says that the first audience Don Rondo sang to was 300 cows and two feed men.
 
5. Donald Jenkins and The Delighters - Elephant Walk (Native Girl)
From the jungles of Southside Chicago to the dancefloors of Belgium.
 
6. Bop A Loos - South Parkway Mambo
The inspiration for Andy Capp's (Lynford Anderson) Pop-A-Top sound that briefly swept Jamaica in the late 60s.
 
7. Ruth Brown - One More Time
The Queen of Rhythm & Blues… one of my favourites from her. This record goes for pence.
 
8. Marv Johnson - Baby Baby
Fantastic double sider 7" from Berry Gordy's first signing to Motown. When Gordy first started Motown he didn’t have the money to release records himself so struck a deal with United Artists where they would release and distribute Motown releases.
 
9. Soul Bros - Soho
Used to be a big Spider John spin back in the late 80s. This always takes me back to those brilliant days of my youth.
 
10. Jackie Opel - Turn to the Almighty 
The patron saint of Barbados and godfather of Spouge. Alternative take which came out on Top Deck a few years back
 
11. Marv Johnson - Don't Leave Me
Found this for 50p a few months back and have been playing it solidly since. Beautiful heart rendering tale of the insecure lover.
 
12. The Cleftones - Some Kinda Blue
Popcorn Soul Perfection! Managed to get a copy of this 1963 beauty recently and play it over and over
 
13. Nana Mouskouri – L’eau Qui Dort
Yes Nana! Stunning version of Still Waters Run Deep from one of a series of French Eps she did in 1963
 
14. Jimmy Breedlove – Guardian Angel
The original of this on Okeh always goes for too much money.. as much as I love it, more than happy to just have it on a Stardust bootleg. Jimmy used to be a backing singer for Atlantic records.
 
15. Lorne Greene – The Search
From his brilliant LP The Man.  Watching Battlestar Galactica and Bonanza growing up, we never knew he was massive on the Popcorn scene
 
16. Milt Grayson – Wayfarin’ Stranger
A traditional American folk song done by everyone from Duane Eddy to Ed Sheerhan. Milt Grayson’s is the best version by far, on a great double sider 45 that goes for £££££££s
 
17. Ronnie Savoy – The Big Chain
The prisoner of love… first heard this via Lucky Cat a few months back
