Hound Dog



I don't know why it is but I seem to be swinging from the latest Techno and Dubstep back to the earliest R&B and Soul at the moment and sort of disregarding everything in between.

Here's another 7 inch re-press I managed to get my hands on recently.

Little Girl



Enough of my moaning back to the music.

Here is a belter of a R&b track loved by Mods everywhere.

My Man



Here is a brilliant bit of early R&B that I managed to get my mitts on a few weeks ago on 7 inch.

Originally released in 1955 on Modern Records. The backing tune performed by Maxwell Davis and is Orchestra is rather familiar.

Each Day



Here is a belter of an R&B track, guaranteed to brighten up your Saturday night.

Each Day was recorded by Ann Cole and released in 1956 on the Baton label. Ann Cole was also responsible for the original version of Got My Mojo Working made famous by Muddy Waters and that's about all I know  about this lady but what a voice.

I picked up a repress copy of the single on Fryers Records from Fat City last year.

Now if that other Ann as in Cheryl Ann Cole could sing like that I might actually take some notice of her.
