Just been listening to some classic soul, r'n'b, from the sixties. 
Eddie Floyd "Knock on wood", 

Wilson Pickett "In the midnight hour", 

Booker T "Green onions" 

and a few more. Got me back to the youth club days in Bilsthorpe. This would be were I first heard these tunes along with earl reggae and Bluebeat tracks. Stuff like Roland Alphonso "Phoenix City", Prince Buster "Al Capone", all great stuff. I was hooked pretty much straight away. I was soon looking out for new tracks to spend my spare money on. Then along came all the Harry J and Trojan tracks, all though it became more commercial sounding, it was still pretty good stuf to listen to, and through into the seventies Trojan put out some great tracks.

Among my favourites was Dandy Livingstone "Suzanne beware of the devil"


This was a track I played many many times at the Friday night disco's. The seventies, looking back really did have a lot of great and varied music. Beside the continuing growth of reggae and soul and Motown, there was the Glam Rock and Heavy rock scene. All got played and everyone seemed to like pretty much all of it.

To finish off today's entry, just one more piece of classic early reggae from the mighty Dave & Ansell Collins "Double Barrel"
