    O/T Desert Islind Discs

    This is my selection.

    Records:
    1, I wish it would rain - The best group in the world (The Temptations) with the best singer there has ever been (The one and only Mr.David Ruffin) Chokes me up EVERYTIME.

    2, Sitting in the Park - Billy Stewart. The great Billy Stewart. What a voice he had.

    3, Emperor of my baby's heart - Kurt Harris. Another great voice and my favorite Northern Soul record of all time.

    4, Summertime - Billy Stewart. Another one from the great man. Just a fantastic record that puts a huge smile on my face.

    5, Strange fruit - Billie Holiday. Such a POWERFUL song from a very powerful Lady and a reminder of how vicious humans can be.

    6, Gimme Shelter - The Rolling Stones. What a masterpiece of music this is.

    7, Something's Got A Hold On Me - Etta James. The original and best. Sounds like she smoked 60 a day and chewed bottles. What a voice.

    I liked the one when Bill Gates was on. He wanted to discuss which 8 islands he would take with him if he was ever stranded on a gramophone record.
