Big Thanks to my cover boy Rossy for his talent on dressing up my Fairy's!
Here is some background on some of these tracks and as always corrections are welcomed!
01. The Cinderellas - Fairy Tale
1965 - Mercury
02. Mayer Hawthorne - I Wish It Would Rain
2009 - Stones Throw
Here is a guy I never heard of before, not until my big bro turned me on to him weekends ago...Love this blue eye soul song that hit the ears very quick!!
03. 100% Pure Poison - My Little Someone
1974 - Soul Brother Records
04. Jay Wiggins - Forgive Then Forget
2 labels, JW 1015 / IPG 1015 (1963) H'es aka Majeed, This fine ballad may just be the best side he ever recorded. The horns blaze away adding power and weight to Jay's lovely baritone vocal. Wiggins is best known for his biggest seller "Sad Girl" from 1963.
there's indication why his musical career came to such an abrupt halt - he was imprisoned for refusing the draft for Vietnam.
05. Bunny Sigler - Ooh Baby Baby
2005 - Soul Renaissance Records, Born Walter "Bunny" Sigler from Philadelphia, Pa, who has done extensive work with the team of Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff,[and who was instrumental in creating the "Philly Sound" in the early 1970s. H'es nicknamed "Mr. Emotion."
06. The Dynamic Concepts - Here I Sit Alone
1960's - Ken-Del
07. Guy Allen - Changes
08. The Chosen Few - Baby
There are at least 5 different groups calling themselves The Chosen Few. 1 reggae, 1 punk from Australia, 1 psychedelic from the 60s another, metal and finally a hardcore (electronic music, not metal) act. There’s also a 60’s soul group called the Chosen Few (not be confused with the reggae band of the same name) I dunno which group this is.....does it sound reggae?
09. The Hearts - All My Love Belongs To You
1955 - Baton, These 5 High schoolers were originally assembled by Bronx, NY . They recorded under a variety of aliases including not only the Hearts but also the Poppies, the Z-Debs and, most famously, the Jaynetts, to whom the 1963 classic "Sally Go 'Round the Roses" was credited.
10. Heaven & Earth - Let Me Back In
1976 - G E C
A vocal quartet that originally went by the name the Soul Majestics, though this Chicago-based quartet didn't shake up the charts with their releases, their recordings were absolute quality.
11. Leaders - Nobody Loves Me
1956 - Glory, From Newport News, Virginia
12. Buck & Sixteenth Movement - Trust Me This Night
1973 - Supreme Records
13. Ron Colbert - Just One Kiss Away
no info on this 45
14. Unique - Here We Go Again
1970 - Col-La-Soul Records
15. Heartbeats - I Won't Be The Fool Anymore
1957 - Rama, formed in Queens, New York, James Sheppard was lead in this group but fell asleep at the microphone one night in Philadelphia & the rest of the band were allegedly none too impressed, he went back to his regular employment, later their erstwhile lead put together Shep And The Limelites, Sheppard was found dead in January 1970 after being shot and robbed. The four surviving members of the Heartbeats reunited in December 2003 to celebrate their 50th anniversary.
16. Leona Buckles - I'm Waiting (To Give You My Love)
1965 - Watch, From New Orleans
17. Presidents - The Sweetest Thing This Side Of Heaven
1971 - Sussex Label, This Group was produced by Van McCoy...
Based in Washington D.C., the trio decided to call themselves The Presidents after their hometown. They later changed their name to Anacostia
18. The Originals - I'm Your Man
1981 - Fantasy records, While spending most of their existence in the shadow of Motown's biggest acts, the Originals had a brief shining moment and a couple now-classic songs that will forever secure their place in Soul Music history and whose legacy as stars doesn't match that of other male groups, the Originals discography is a pretty good size.
19. Candye Kane - Forgive Me
2001 - Swango, Candye was raised in Los Angeles where, at 17, she fell pregnant. To help support her son, she vigorously started modelling and stripping as soon as she turned 18, appearing in over 150 magazines from 1983 to 1985. She also sang in a punk band which didn’t quite yield what she wanted and she was dropped by her label. Consequently she discovered the blues which she is now more famous for than her porn and is a massive icon in the blues world. She made a brief comeback to porn in ’98 but Candye Kane had evidently found her niché in music and quit again soon after....this woman can really sing!
20. Dorells - Maybe Baby
1963 - Gel, This is a version of BillyMacs Unknown Motown Acetate (Maybe Baby) on his and RB's Crossing The Bridge Comp....Till this day it remains still unknown!
21. Ty Hunter - I Don't See Me In Your Eyes No More
1972 - Invictus, from Detroit, MI, Tyrone Hunter cut his teeth alongside Lamont Dozier in the Romeos before joining The Voicemasters and later the Moments .. He also worked with Dozier as lead singer with Glass House on Invictus single that was a new take on a Brotherly Love B-side
22. Cadillacs - Heart Is So Blind
1959 - Josie
23. Perry & Sanlin - Just To Make You Happy
1980 - Capital, Two former members of The Montclairs

1980 Phil Perry teamed with Richard Sanlin in a duo
24. Marvin Sease - Tonight Is The Night
1996 - Jive
25. Younger Dayz - Heaven Sent
1993 - Babs Label, From NJ
The beautiful amazing voice of Eadie Fuentes singing lead
I hope I can turn some of you on to some new Rolas that I know we all appreciate!
