More info on Jackie Mittoo please. I know I heard a vocal version of this song in the senenties. It reminds me of the sort of stuff that was very modern when it was made (like watching the original Thomas Crown Affair in a drive-in movie theatre) but has since, um, dated somewhat. Not that that stops me loving it!
It's not so much that the EPDM and the Marvin Gaye tracks knocked my sox off: they flew off the end of my feet and hit the opposite wall where they hung there, quivering. Excellent playlist!!!
Thanks for Listening, FP. I'm glad you liked those tracks. Upon reflection I might have retracted the EPMD, because it really sounds like he was never in love at all, but they are very good.
Thanks for listening, too, Saneshane. I liked the Eugene McGuinness video. It's the kind of animation that always makes me think, I could do that!! but would probably be actually incredibly hard and time consuming. Does he look just like Alex Turner?
That's one of my fave B&S tracks by the way, apparently inspired by Lawrence fae Denim, who uttered the immortal phrase.

some amazing atmosphere in the older tracks.. weird to jump from 1934 to 94 and all around to think.. love sucks... belle and seb words so sad.
