When this title played in my i-tunes library, I had that how-come-I-never-noticed-it-before moments. I couldn't help but feel for a moment that this voice resembled so much that of Paul Williams from the Temptations.
I don't know anything about Danny Moore -- but I know he could sing. This track went straight into my favs. section.
Tomorrow, Barry Fowden will be on the air again with another great Vintage Soul Show. Take a look at his playlist, and you will get a first taste of the treats waiting thee for you.
I have been ripping my old albums and have rediscovered one of my favorite songs. Gil-Scott Heron was really one of the pioneers of what we call "rap" since a lot of people know him from the classic " The Revolution Will Not Be Televised".
Gil was also an accomplished musician and often collaborated with pianist "Brian Jackson". Together they made some classic Jazz/blues/R&B music. This is one of my favs.
Take a listen to the melancholy baritone(Raggedy, I'm still on the Baritone bandwagon) of Gil-Scott and Brian (on the keyboard) as they capture frustrations of a man that could clearly be here and now. This was released 1971.
Time to get the candles out and kiss those overly busy summer days goodbye. Now is the time to reminisce, to dream of days gone by and just let those images from the past fill our minds like old photographs fill the pages of an album (or a plain old shoe box.)

Johnny Bristol -- Memories Don't Leave Like People Do
This is one of the best Temptations album, in my opinion. Unfortunately, most of the songs are not heard very often nowadays. 1990 was originally released in 1973. The remastered originals CD came out in 2006. The lineup was MelvinFranklin, Otis Williams, Dennis Edwards, Richard Street and Damon Harris.
