    About this Episode

    Welcome to part three of the Modern Soul Essentials imprint from Outta Sight featuring hot off the press Modern and in demand NuSoul. First up are UK clubland’s top act - The Cuban Brothers - with a double “A” side featuring MICA PARIS. The MTV presenters and Manumissian headliners are just as at home presenting the NME Awards as they are in the recording studio. Here we feature two tracks from their forthcoming album Yo Bonita – “Ain’t No Need” and “So Sweet”, performed and co written by MICA PARIS. Al Olmedo and his Teenagers came together in a borstal in Spain and, under difficult circumstances, have developed into a tight, authentic NuSoul band paying homage to their first love Northern Soul. “Paint Yourslef In A Corner” and “It Must Be Love” are already dance floor hits on the European rare souil circuit. DeRoberts and the Half Truths are the house band for Nashville based record label G.E.D. Soul and over the past 3 years have built a worldwide fan base for their unique brand of modern soul and heavy funk. Also from the G.E.D. stable comes Ski Hi with their unique mix of Latin tinged funk/soul. Sharing the same musicians as DeRoberts this powerful double “A” 45 is a sure fire winner.

    Spiral Starecase / Moments

    Spiral Starecase / Moments
    OUTTA SIGHT stomp into 2104 with a Northern Soul double-delight courtesy of Sony Music and BMG. First on the deck are Pat Upton’s California one-hit wonders Spiral Starecase. The band, from Sacramento, were formed in 1964 as The Fydallions and were signed to Columbia in ’68 by A&R man Gary Usher. It was Usher who pushed for the name change to the Spiral Starecase, after the film but with a deliberate misspelling. Usher also produced their first singles: an upbeat cover of the Drifters soul workout “Baby What I Mean” and “I’ll Run” coupled with “Inside, Outside, Upside Down”, a Mod/Soul collectable by Al Torino. But, it was Upton’s own composition “More Today Than Yesterday” that propelled the band to #12 in the Billboard Hot 100, selling over one million copies and scoring a gold disc. An album of the same name followed plus a couple more singles but they were unable to repeat their earlier success and within 18 months they disbanded. Next we feature two all-time Northern Soul classics from the New Jersey trio, The Moments, aka Harry Ray, Al Goodman and William Brown. The top-side, “I’ve Got The Need” is an original album-only cut taken from their 1975 Sharp LP on Joe and Sylvia Robinsons Stang label. The song, a massive Blackpool Mecca spin at the time of release, also enjoyed popularity at Wigan Casino by Chuck Jackson and Cleethorpes by Spooky & Sue. The flip side is no slouch either. “Nine Times” from 1976 is a true club-classic with its unforgettable “telephone” intro calling you onto the dance floor. Both sides remain floor fillers today and are available for the first time back-to-back. contact jenny@passionmusic.co.uk

Both tracks are from his post-Ravens career and include his insistent version of the Otis Blackwell song “Daddy Rollin’ Stone” and the rare rocker “Bad Man Of Missouri”. Finally we present two hot 45s from Gene C. Redd’s Ohio Redbug label. Both sides were produced by the legendary bandleader and manufactured at the local King pressing plant.
