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
