O.C.Smith - I Betcha 1982 (45)

Image
Hello my friends, many fans of O.C.Smith and soul music know the song " I Betcha' which was included on the album " Love Changes " in 1982. This song was written by H.B.Barnum and Walter "Big Walt" Johnson . In my opinion, they are one of the best team in songwriting Soul music. The album was originally released on South Bay Records and later in the same year was also released on Motown Records. Motown records released two 45 from that album. The first 45 includes two songs called " Love Changes " and " Got To Know ". The second 45 includes the songs " I Betcha " and " That's One For Love ". However the song " I Betcha " was also released as a Dj Copy 45. This copy is rare and hard to find.

Energy - Get There 1977 (45)

Hello my friends. This is an unknown vinyl record 45. I bought it a couple of months ago. I was fortunate enough to find an excellent copy. I have seen it on ebay several times but all the copies were in a bad condition. It includes vocal and instrumental versions. Both of them are pretty nice. The only negative thing is that the duration of the tracks is short (about 2 minutes). For this reason I made a mix in order to make it longer. I had the pleasure to play it on my broadcast on Sunday 14th Oct.

My gems on my broadcasts on Coni-OnAir

Image
Hello my friends, I had the chance to present you several months ago two unreleased songs on my web radio broadcasts. I'm so happy and proud because both tracks were released as a single, in a vinyl record 45 later this summer , in England on Izipho Soul Records. In fact, my broadcasts were the cause of the songs' release in vinyl records. I'm talking about the songs " Chase A Way The Blues"  by  Percy Mays  known today as  Lee Mays and the song " Cold Rainy Day " by Freddie Chavez . Both songs are great. Firstly, I played the song " Chase Away The Blues " on my broadcast on February 12th . It was a song that Lee Mays wrote and recorded in 1977. He discovered it among his reel-to-reel tapes. I had the chance to speak with him about it. Then Lee Mays gave me this song in order to present it on my radio show. Nowadays it has gone out in a vinyl record 45 from the label Izipho Soul Records. The second song is " Cold Rainy Days &q

Jeff Adams - Where Did The Good Times Go 1974 (45)

Image
This vinyl record is one of my favorites. It is a great unknown record 45 from Canada. I discovered it two years ago and I bought it a year ago. It includes vocals and an instrumental version. Both are fantastic. The instrumental version includes solo saxophone by the Canadian sax and flute player Keith Jollimore . Keith was a member of the Canadian jazz group called Dr.Music under the direction of Doug Riley . He was also member of the rock group Lighthouse . Jeff Adams is an unknown singer. There are not much information about him. However, it is worthy to note that he has an absolutely fantastic voice. This great song " Where Did The Good Times Go " was written by Canadian duet Chuck Aarons and Jim Ackley . They released two albums in the early 70's. I want to mention that Jeff Adams released this song again the same year under the name Jeff Addams. In 1974, he also released another record 45 entitled " Haven't You Had Enough / Take Me Back
