First record you ever bought?

One of my all time favourite Soul music songs was this.Brings back memories of the Bar Kays,Donny Elbert,Ramsey Lewis,Mitch Ryder,Sam & Dave etc,etc.


Love Donnie Elbert, Little piece of Leather, Sweet Baby, Can't help myself, brilliant brilliant singer, non smoother.

As much as I love Tamla, I prefer his two versions of Where Did Our Love Go and I Can`t Help Myself.Little Piece of Leather was another wonderful hit but my all time favourite is Sweet Baby.A class act and he certainly was lost at a youngish age,in his early 50`s IIRC.
 
That yodelling Aussie way back in the early `60`s was something I don`t miss mate. ;)
Ah the Monkees,every school girls clit ticklers at that time,with Likul Davie from Wythenshawe was it ? We had some great bands from Manc in those days with the Hollies,Dave Berry,Hermans Hermits,The Mindbenders etc.
From Gorton actually. My late wife was a (ahem) massive Monkees fan, and knew where his parents lived.

Did you know he also played the part of Ena Sharples' grandson in Corrie?
 
Go into Google and search for Donnie Elbert "Sweet Baby" Twisted Soul and watch the black dancers from a 1950`s film and how someone has linked it to this song.Wonderful dancing !!

I know it mate but cheers, it's an ace video and I fuckin love the rotund guy who does the splits, must have watched that vid hundreds of times. Lots of those twisted soul vids are quality, check out The Contours Just a little Misunderstanding if you haven't already.

Yes I`ve seen that one and as you say some wonderful stuff.Have you seen the We Two Can Have A Party ... Tammi Terell.Probably my favourite video.
 
No surprise that's what you bought.

I don't remember what the first single I bought was but the first single I owned was definitely Jeepster by T.Rex, which was a Xmas present.

Edit:

Fair chance that the first single that I bought was Telegram Sam by T.Rex.
What you trying to say mate?

Shall I mention you used to wear spandex pants! ? Lol
