Familia Souldiez Vol 36 - Time Capsule


I was expecting a great cover from the G MAN and of course he knocked it out of the park yet again ! But when he also sent me some great tracks including a fabulous version of Donnie Elbert's "What Can I Do" which I never knew lurked on the flip side of Bobby Freeman "Fever" single from 1962, I just knew that this month's Familia Souldies was gonna be a good one ! So, when my mate Stu in London sent me a couple of tracks which I also didn't know about the same time, I thought I would extend the familia and include those too, coz you know I just love being blasted by tunes I don't know ! And, of course, the usual crew then came through with a mix of both rare tracks and known classics to make up the numbers. Thanks to all the contributors - you did us proud once more ! We hope all the listeners enjoy this one - let us know; it's hard to keep digging month after month ! RB
