The Rivingtons Listen/Download The Rivingtons – Deep Water

The end of the week is at hand, and so is the Funky16Corners Radio Show, which rolls into your ears this and every Friday night at 9PM on Viva Radio. If you can’t dig at the time of air, you can keep up with the sounds by subscribing to the show as a podcast in iTunes or grab an MP3 from the archive here at the blog.

The tune I bring you today is one of those surprising b-sides that we all love so much (at least I do). I had been on the lookout for a copy of the Rivingtons 1962 epic ‘Papa Oom Mow Mow’ (the ur document that wrought the Trashmen’s ‘Surfin’ Bird’) for a while, and was quite pleased when I finally filed a copy, my sons and I ‘Papa Oom Mow Mow’-ing all  over the house for at least a week.

So, anyway…I set to digimatizing and flip the platter over to check out the b-side, and get knocked right on my ass, and not in the way I expected. The Rivington’s stock in trade was wild R&B/soul madness, so when I dropped the needle on ‘Deep Water’ I was – as they say’ taken aback.

There, on the flipside of one of the funniest/fun-nest records ever put to wax, was a deep, deep, epic lament. ‘Deep Water’ – written by the group members – is a heart-wrenching bridge between classic group harmony and early soul, and the group vocal is without exaggeration, positively spellbinding.

Listening to the lyrics, one can imagine ‘Deep Water’ having started out as a tongue-in-cheek tale of woe, but in this case it’s all about the delivery, sounding here like a guy that’s made it all the way to the edge of hopelessness and is about to ask directions to suicide. No matter how many times you listen to it, the juxtaposition between ‘Deep Water’ and ‘Papa Oom Mow Mow’ never gets any less stark or shocking.

I love this record, and I hope you do too.

Have yourselves a great weekend, and I’ll see you all on Monday.

Keep the faith

Larry

Peaches and Herb

Listen/Download Peaches and Herb – I Need Your Love So Desperately

Greetings all

Welcome to the middle of the week here at the Corners.

The track I bring you today is one of those ‘I know the name but not the song’ numbers.

Outside of dedicated soulies. Most of you will only know Peaches and Herb via their 1970s hits like ‘Shake Your Groove Thing’ (R&B #4 1978) and ‘Reunited’(R&B and Pop #1 1979).

I wouldn’t discover until many years later, that the duo (with interchangeable Peaches-es) had a recording career that went back to the mid-60s.

Formed in Washington, DC by Herb Fame (nee Feemster) and Francine ‘Peaches’ Barker, the duo had their first hit with ‘Let’s Fall In Love’ in 1966.

The tune I bring you today appeared as the B-side to their 1967 R&B Top 10 hit ‘For Your Love’, a cover of Ed Townsend’s 1958 hit.

Though that tune has a late night slow dance/make out session appel to it, you really need to flip the disc over for a little high octane, Northern Soul dance floor heat.

‘I Need Your Love So Desperately’ is a fast moving, melodic feature with a propulsive horn section and great back and forth between Fame and Barker.

The duo went on to chart steadily through 1970 (with Marlene Mack replacing Barker in 1968) and then, with Linda Green in the ‘Peaches’ spot, started up again in 1977.

I hope you dig the tune, and I’ll see you all on Friday.

Keep the faith

Effie Smith

Listen/Download Effie Smith – Teenage World Pts 1&2

Listen/Download Effie Smith – Harper Valley PTA Gossip

Greetings all

I hope the new week finds you well.

The tunes I bring you today are artifacts of (the end of) a time when an artist could settle themselves in a niche and ride it for all it was worth.

I picked up Effie Smith’s ‘Harper Valley PTA Gossip’ years ago (pre-portable) and when I got it home I was pleasantly surprised to discover a sassy old lady engaged in a telephone conversation. The rap was based (see title…) on Jeannie C Riley’s 1968 mega-hit ‘Harper Valley PTA’, and it was groovy in an ‘Aunt Esther goes funky’ way.

Flash forward about half a decade, and I’m down in DC spinning (and digging, natch) at a record show and what do I turn up but a whole album of Effie Smith telephone raps!

The thought of a performer working a gag so thoroughly hasn’t been in vogue since the crest of the Bill Seluga ‘You Can Call me Ray’ wave, and I had to admire her persistence.

As it turns out, Effie Smith had been working it out in the world of jazz and R&B since the 1930s (?!?), working with Lionel Hampton, Benny Carter and Johnny Otis.

It is important to note that Effie was also mother to the one and only producer/songwriter Fred Smith, a very familiar name to fans of LA soul.

The first track I bring you today will be familiar to those of you that listen to the Funky16Corners Radio Show, from my use of a drop from ‘Teenage World Pts 1&2’ (1965). The voice of the husband was provided by Effie’s real life spouse,  John Criner.

The second track is the aforementioned ‘Harper Valley PTA Gossip’, which grazed the R&B Top 40 in November of 1968.

Effie Smith passed away in 1977 at the age of 63.

I hope you dig the tracks, and I’ll see you all on Wednesday.

Keep the faith

The Astors

Listen/Download The Astors – Candy

Greetings all

Hows about something for the middle of the week that is, to borrow a phrase from the mighty Emperor of Vout, Slim Gaillard, is mellow as a cello?

The Astors were a Memphis-based group that recorded several 45s for Stax between 1961 and 1967.

Formed as the Chips, the group included Curtis Johnson, Eliehue Stanback, Sam Jones, Richard Harris, and Richard Griffin. That line-up recorded one single for Stax as the Chips.

After Griffin left the group, they changed their name to the Astors.

‘Candy’ – which borrows part of its melody from Ferde Grofe’s  ‘On the Trail’ from his ‘Grand Canyon Suite’ – was the group’s only hit, almost making it into the R&B Top 10 in the summer of 1965.

Written by Steve Cropper and Isaac Hayes, and featuring sweet group harmonies and a hard-hitting Stax rhythm section (listen to those drums) ‘Candy’ has enough pop for the radio and more than enough heat for the dancers.

The flip side, ‘I Found Out’ is also very cool.

I hope you dig the cut, and I’ll see you all back here on Friday.

Keep the faith

Larry

The Spencer Davis Group

Listen/Download The Spencer Davis Group – Trampoline

Greetings all

Welcome to another groovy week here at the Corners.

I thought I’d get things started this week by dipping into the Hammond crates for something cool.

Oddly enough, I dug up this German Fontana pressing of the Spencer Davis Group’s ‘Trampoline’ right around the corner from my crib here in Central NJ.

I was unfamiliar with either of the tunes on the 45, and since it was a dollar (and I really dig the SDG) I grabbed it and took it home.

Good thing too, because in addition to the cool ‘When I Come Home’ (co-written by Jackie Edwards and Stevie Winwood), you get the very swinging bit of Mod soul on the flip.

Released in 1966, ‘Trampoline’ sees our boy Stevie working it out on the organ and piano with enough groove grease for the dancers.

The 45 fell in between their big British hits ‘Somebody Help Me’ and ‘Gimme Some Lovin’ and grazed the UK Top 10.

I hope you dig the tune, and I’ll see you all on Wednesday.

Keep the faith

Larry

The Popular Five

Listen/Download The Popular Five – I’m a Love Maker

Greetings all

The end of the week is here, and so is some more soul.

But first, I should remindyou that the Funky16Corners Radio Show will be on the air this and every Friday night at 9PM on Viva Radio. You can also subscribe to the show as a podcast in iTunes or grab and MP3 from the archive here at the blog.

I grabbed the 45 you see before you today a while back at a record show.

Though I had never heard anything by the Popular Five, I had seen ‘I’m a Love Maker’ pop up on countless lists, and since I’m a sucker for Minit soul 45s, I grabbed it and took it home.

What I ended up with was a superb two-sider, with a hard-charging cover of Thurston Harris and the Sharps ‘Little Bitty Pretty One’ on the b-side (heard in one of my 2013 Allnighter mixes, Everybody Dance Now) and today’s selection on the topside.

As it turns out, the Popular Five, who released a number of 45s between 1967 and 1970 on labels like Rae Cox, Minit and Mr Chand had roots that went way back into the early days of doowop and one of that genres biggest hits.

Thanks to tenor singer Jimmy Keyes, the Popular Five are connected to the Chords, the Bronx, NY group that had a huge hit with ‘Sh-boom’ in 1954.

The group changed members (and names) over the years, and by 1967, when they made their first record as the Popular Five, the members were Warren Wilson, Keyes, Jessie Huddleston, Arthur Dicks and Demetrius Clare.

‘I’m a Love Maker’ is a great slice of funky soul (dig that bass line). The group’s harmony singing roots are evident in the solid wall of voices in the chorus.

As I mentioned before, the flipside is a killer, so make sure to check it out if you haven’t already.

As always, I hope you dig the tune, and I’ll see you all on Monday.

Keep the faith

Larry

Ron Dunbar aka Ronnie Love

Listen/Download Ronnie Love – Chills and Fever

Greetings all

It is my great pleasure to welcome you all to the middle of another week here at Funky16Corners.

The tune I bring you today is one one of those cornerstones of the Mod R&B/soul “thing” that is not only in demand (got fifty smackers?) but twice as groovy as any money you have to fork over to get your own copy.

Ronnie Love*, was a pseudonymous appellation for the man that would go on to have a stellar songwriting career as Ron Dunbar (co-writing Band of Gold, Give Me Just a Little More Time, Patches among many others).

He laid down ‘Chills and Fever’ in 1960 and managed to make it to #15 R&B and #72 Pop.

‘Chills and Fever’ is one of those records with an undeniable, hard charging beat, a wall of saxophones, pounding piano and a very solid vocal by Love/Dunbar.

The tune was fired up again a few years later when the mighty Tom Jones (still in the grip of his R&Beat thing) laid into it towing a truck full of TNT (check out this live performance from 1965!).

As I alluded to in the beginning of the post, Ronnie Love’s ‘Chills and Fever’ is a huge fave with the Mod and Northern Soul crowds, and as a result is not cheap or easy to score.

It should also not be confused with Paul Kelly’s Northern fave of the same name, which is an entirely different song.

I hope you dig it, and I’ll see you all on Friday.

Keep the faith

Larry

*Chills and Fever was first issued as by ‘Johnny Love’ on the Startime label a few months earlier

French picture sleeve

Listen/Download Bo Diddley – Wrecking My Love Life

Greetings all

Welcome to another week here in the land of vinyl.

The disc I bring you today is something I picked up while I was out digging last year.

You all know that I hold Bo Diddley in the highest possible esteem.

He was a gunslinger, surfer, scooter owner and general badass, as well as one of the architects of the one true rock and roll.

Though there are those that will boil him down to his essence, that being the famous “beat”, there are others (like me, for instance) who know what a truckload of manure that is.

Bo made a LOT of amazing music in his career (some of it beyond amazing, like cornerstone of modern music amazing) but unfortunately, outside of collectors of vinyl (on the deep side), much of his later catalog is not well known.

The track I bring you today is (believe your ears or not) from 1967, where it appeared on the flipside of the decidedly non-boogaloo-ish, ‘Boogaloo Before You Go’.

‘Wrecking My Love Life’ packs a metric ton of swagger into its two minutes and 47 seconds, with a thick, spicy bouillabaisse of echoey, reverbed guitar, harmonica, and female backing vocals.

The first time I heard this one, I had to go back to make sure that it wasn’t an earlier side being reissued because it sounds like 1962, holed up in a bunker where 1967 keeps a knockin’ but can’t get in.

The record stomps arounds like some kind of R&B kaiju, crushing buildings, cars and tanks under its massive feet.

Solid stuff from the master, and one I think you’ll want to play over and over again.

I hope you dig it, and I’ll see you on Wednesday.

Keep the faith

Larry

Bobby Womack and his 1968 breakthrough LP

Listen/Download Bobby Womack – Take Me

Greetings all

Since the end of the week is approaching, I will take this opportunity to remind you that the Funky16Corners Radio Show takes to the airwaves of the interwebs this and every Friday night at 9PM on Viva Radio. If you cannot join me at airtime, make sure to grab the show by subscribing as a podcast in iTunes, or by downloading an MP3 at the blog.

The tune I bring you today is another small building block in my extremely late, but earnest appreciation of the mighty Bobby Womack.

Womack is one of those major movers and shakers in the world of soul who I knew of forever, yet was acquainted with precious little of his music.

I have been working on remedying that situation for the last few years, picking up his records when and wherever I find them.

Womack was not only a dynamic performer (singer and guitar), but also a prolific songwriter.

He was a regular presence on the R&B charts from 1968 to 1986, though he had been active for years before that, on his own and as a member of the Valentinos.

Today’s selection was recorded in 1968 and released on the flipside of his Top 20 hit cover of the old standard ‘Fly Me To the Moon’.

Recorded in Memphis with Chips Moman at the board, where Womack had become a de facto member of the American Studios house band on guitar, ‘Take Me’ is an incredible piece of Southern soul.

A strong, mid-tempo mover ‘Take Me’ features some remarkable chord changes, guitar and horn work, and of course a great vocal by Bobby.

The song is credited to ‘Dee Ervin’, though I haven’t been able to confirm it, I think this was Big Dee Erwin, who recorded under that name (and a number of other variations as well).

Interestingly, the version of ‘Take Me’ that appeared on the 45 (the one you’re hearing today) is a different take than the one that appeared on the ‘Fly Me To the Moon’ LP.

It’s a great, great record/performance, and I hope you dig it as much as I do.

I’ll see you all on Monday.

Keep the faith

Listen/Download Benny Scott – Soul Beat

Greetings all

I figured it might behoove me to get the week off to a start with something obscure, and of course, funky.

I picked up today’s 45 last year whilst getting my record show dig on.

When I encountered the old, familiar Brunswick label, and then saw the title ‘Soul Beat’, you just know I had to slap this one onto the keeper pile.

As it turns out this was a fortuitous decision, since Benny Scott’s ‘Soul Beat’ is a very hot bit of funk from 1970, with some tight horns (it’s mostly a horn feature) and a particularly messy, yet very cool guitar solo.

Information on Benny Scott himself has been hard to come by.

It would appear that he was a Chicago-based bass player (he played with both Curtis Mayfield and Leroy Hutson), and while my first instinct was to associate him with the Scott Brothers who recorded for Toddlin’ Town (and other labels) I don’t think there was a Benny in their midst.

Either way, the 45 has quite a bit of flavor, and I would not hesitate to offer it up to a dance floor full of sweaty groovers.

I hope you dig it, and I’ll see you all on Wednesday.

Keep the faith

The Blossoms, Darlene Love, bottom left

Listen/Download The Blossoms – Soul and Inspiration

Greetings all

The end of another week is at hand, and that means that the Funky16Corners Radio Show is as well. We come to you each and every Friday night at 9PM on Viva Radio with the finest in funk, soul, jazz and rare groove, all on original vinyl.

If you can’t be there at airtime, you can subscribe to the show as a podcast in iTunes, or grab and MP3 download here at the blog.

The tune I bring you today is another one of those great 45s where an artist relegated to a supporting role gets their chance to move to the front of the stage.

If you are a music fan or record collector, the name of the Blossoms will surely be a familiar one, especially in relation to the oeuvre of Phil Spector.

As an important part of his studio “machine”, the Blossoms lent their backing (and sometimes lead) vocals to any number of Spector-related projects.

The trio, which included Darlene (Wright) Love, Jean King, Fanita James (and for a time Gloria Jones) were a crucial part of groups like Bobb B Soxx and the Blue Jeans, and the Crystals, as well as backing just about everyone else that Spector recorded, as well as touring with both Elvis Presley and Tom Jones.

They also recorded a number of 45s under their own name for labels like Challenge, Reprise, Ode, MGM, Bell, Lion and Epic during the 60s and 70s.

I found today’s selection last year, and was intrigued by the fact that it had the Blossoms covering a Righteous Brothers hit (‘Soul and Inspiration’) produced by Righteous Brother #1, Bill Medley.

What I didn’t know at the time, was that during the late 60s, Darlene Love and Bill Medley were a couple.

The Blossoms 1969 version of the song divests it of some of the bombast of the 1966 original (also produced by Medley), replacing it with a more relaxed, soulful approach (though, oddly, both arrangements are credited to Bill Baker).

Love’s lead vocal is – predictably – excellent, and the group harmonies are spot on.

Despite its obvious high quality, ‘Soul and Inspiration’, like the rest of the Blossoms discography (save 1967s ‘Good Good Lovin’ which made it to #45 R&B) failed to make a dent in the charts. It did see a UK issue on the Pama label in 1970.

The flipside, ‘Stand By’ has a much earlier feel to it.

I hope you dig the sounds, and that you all have a great weekend.

See you on Monday

Keep the faith

Larry

Rosey Grier during his gridiron days.

Listen/Download Roosevelt Grier – People Make the World

Listen/Download Roosevelt Grier – Hard To Forget

Greetings all

The middle of another hot, steamy summer week is here, so I thought that I’d mellow things a little with a ballad.

I have made no secret over the years of my affinity for the musical efforts of Mr Roosevelt Grier.

Folks my age or older will know why I make that distinction, bit for those of you born after the cretaceous period, Roosevelt ‘Rosey’ Grier was a powerful defensive lineman for the NY Giants and the LA Rams during the 1950s and 1960s, who had a couple of relatively successful sideline careers as an actor and singer.

If you grew up in the 60s and 70s, Rosey was a familiar presence on episodic television, as well as all kinds of talk and game shows.

I only really discovered his singing career when I started digging for soul 45s in my early 20s.

Grier has a couple of Northern Soul faves in his discography, as well as a grip of tasty sides recorded in Memphis with the American Studios crew (Slow Drag is a big fave).

I picked up today’s 45 a while back, and while I was unfamiliar with the tunes, the price was right and I’m always game to file some more Rosey in my crates, so I grabbed it.

What I discovered was that ‘People Make the World’ wasn’t just any ballad, but reflection on a particularly tragic event in Grier’s life.

During the late 60s, Grier was both friend and bodyguard for Robert Kennedy. Grier was present the night Kennedy was assassinated in 1968, and ‘People Make the World’ – written by none other than Bobby Womack and produced by Chips Moman and Tommy Cogbill– is offered up as a reflection on/reaction to that event.

Starting out with spare, gospel-inflected organ and guitar, Grier steps in with an opening narration before moving into a heartfelt performance.

The record charted briefly in New York City in July of 1968 (a month after the assassination) and is one of the finest sides in Grier’s catalog. It also saw released in the UK on the Action label that same month.

The flip side, ‘Hard To Forget’ is an atmospheric, churchy organ instrumental by the American Studios band.

It’s a very nice bit of soul balladry, and an especially interesting chapter in the already intriguing story of Roosevelt Grier.

I hope you dig it and I’ll see you all on Friday.

Keep the faith

Larry
