Random Thanksgiving Tune


It's the holidays and I'm on a deadline at work so here's a quickie random tune accompanied by an equally random photo.

From the opening piano and tambourine you just know that "What You're Putting Me Through" is going to be great. And it is - brilliant, swinging female soul that makes you want to shake and shimmy. This has long been a massive tune on the Northern Soul scene and I hate to say things like "they don't make 'em like this anymore" but they really don't make 'em like this anymore. Harumph. It came out on the Kapp label in 1965 which is about all I can tell you about it, of Diane Newby I know absolutely nada. This doesn't appear to crop up on any CD compilations either. Sorry.

Enjoy, and have a happy Thanksgiving, and to all my non-American readers have a, um...Happy Thursday.

That's the very album I recorded this from. It's not on CD is it?

Yeah – I Like that one a lot. It sounds a little bit like some of the Ad-Libs stuff on the Blue Cat label – Something else for me to look out for when I’ve got a bit of money behind me again…….. when that will be I have no idea!!!!!

I don’t know if you’re interested or not, but I’m just in the process of setting up a BLOG aimed at selling records – Take a peep at my Little Shop Of Horrors, and let me know what you think. – I Know, I know – It’s SPAM, but it might just be Spam that will interest you!
