THOSE FABULOUS DOWNBEATS.
This section of our web site is devoted to the generally un-sung slowies, Deep Soul, Sweet Soul, and other kinda things that are not specifically dance floor material.
These titles are essentially a personal taste and very much up to the individual ears of the listener.
But maybe thirty years back, the top slowies around were
Gene McDaniels – ‘Walk With A Winner’,
Jerry Jackson- ‘Its Rough Out There’,
Don Folger – ‘The Way Of The Crowd’,
Jimmy Holiday- ‘The Turning Point’
– All of which are firm dance floor favourites of today.
So pin back your ears and have a wallow in the sounds here, and see if any can trigger a goose-bump! Enjoy.
