Might be good for the soul...but it don't do my typing fingers much good...!
Bring It On Home To Me - Sam Cooke 5
Supreme soul song from the supreme soul singer...marvellous...
I'll Be Doggone - Marvin Gaye 4
Good mid-paced Smokey song, done extremely well...got covered over here by Billy J Kramer (of all people!), which I'm thankful I've not heard...!
You Keep Me Hanging On - Vanilla Fudge 4
More Motown, but with a slight difference! I'll probably outrage some who like this, but I much prefer the single edit, so there...!
Good Vibrations - Beach Boys 5
What could've been had it all gone to plan...nothing much more to add here...
Be My Baby - Ronettes 4
Superb stuff with 'that' production...
Pretty Little Angel Eyes - Curtis Lee 4
...and here he is on production duty again (tho' no trademark Wall Of Sound as yet)...corny song which is saved by the performance...
Conquistador - Procol Harum 4
Intense stuff with great orchestral arrangement...sadly, couldn't last...
Liar Liar - Castaways 3
Fairly so-so garage stuff...
Going Up The Country - Canned Heat 3
Fantastic group, but this was a bit sub-standard for them...
Lodi - CCR 5
Brilliant stuff...a continuation of 'Proud Mary' in a way...stuck on the flip of 'Bad Moon Rising', itself a great song...
Buffalo Soldier - Bob Marley 3
Intriguing lyrics, but a weak song...
Solitary Man - Neil Diamond 4
A cracker from his early days...
You've Lost That Loving Feeling - Righteous Brothers 4
More Spector...have heard it more times than I'd like, but still towers above the contemporary cover by our Cilla Black, which was completely laughable/unforgivable...
Please Please Please - James Brown 4
Sparse, stirring stuff...
Travellin' Band - CCR 5
Superb frantic belter...
The Jolly Green Giant - Kingsmen 3
The joke was probably lost on us (I don't think we had the adverts at the time...), but fairly so-so in any case...
For No One - Beatles 3
Attractive but average McCartney ballad...according to my blurb, he & Ringo were the only Beatles on this track - I can't imagine what Ringo must've been doing...making the tea?!!
We're An American Band - Grand Funk 4
No-nonsense stuff, and none the worse for that...
Going To A Go-Go - Smokey & Miracles 4
Not their ultimate best, but a great party record nonetheless...
Fine ol' mix...
