Popcorn (sometimes Belgian Popcorn or oldies popcorn) is a style of music and dancing first established in Belgium in the 1970s and 1980s. The style includes a wide variety of mostly American and British recordings of R&B and soul made between the late 1950s and mid 1960s, often relatively obscure, and characterised by a slow or medium, rather than fast, tempo. The style has been described by musician and writer Bob Stanley as "possibly the last truly underground music scene in Europe".

ROSEMARY CLOONEY - GIRL SINGER
Concord Jazz 1992
http://www4.zippyshare.com/v/lsJ4tDzo/file.html
From the liner notes:
One evening, when I was 19 years old, I was sitting in The Troubadour. In walked Judy
Henske, one of the reigning queens of folk music. After introductions were made, she laid a
friendly hand on my shoulder. "Honey," she said, "I'm going to tell you something that will
make your life a lot easier. In this town there are four sexes: men, women, homosexuals,
and girl singers."
Now, let me say that I love this girl singer called Rosemary Clooney. I love her jokes, her
voice, her children, her naughty laugh and her lively intelligence.
If there's a girl singers anonymous, Rosemary is my sponsor. This is a wonderful collection
of songs, and Rosemary tells the stories in full-blown technicolor. -- Linda Ronstadt
This morning I give you George's aunt Rosemary. In keeping with a lifelong tradition in my
home I'm spending Sunday with, among other things, some nice jazz vocals.
I remember Rosemary Clooney as a singer I saw on TV. Back then she was cute, talented, and
skinny. And she had a few pop hits as well. Forget that "Come On-a My House" nonsense,
Rosemary was a well groomed jazz singer in the smooth big band tradition. I'm sure her
sentiments were the same as Dolly Parton's when Parton said, "I would love to sing Hillbilly
but there's just no money in it." For Rosemary the money was in "Come On-A My House" and
"Half As Much" with Percy Faith.
But on Girl Singer you can hear her true jazz roots.
She had gained a few pounds, written her autobiography titled, what else, "Girl Singer," and
been around the block a few times. Her voice is older, whisky-er, and much smoother. The
band is swingin' but not so much as to take this record out of the afternoon and into the
smokey evening. But if there is a smokey evening tonight this album will do just nicely,
thank you. -- JohnnyDiego
The introduction to "Straighten Up and Fly Right" is from the Clooney Sisters' March 1945

Thanks for Soul Cargo.
I am away today. I will return tomorrow with more bonus music. Happy Holidays.
Thanks a lot for the collective cooperation for the Soul Cargo serie.
Here's a better scan of the CD-back for those who care for this kind of detail :

Men, you are amazing! Your work makes me survive in a place in which i have not my records collection, there's no records shops and i don't have enough money for buying. In this cultural desert you are a kind of oasis and provide me food for my aim.
Deep on my heart Thanks a lot
So pleased you got vol.10 sorted.As I said definitely recommend the Rare Tracks from Detroit vols 1 to 8.Also another series I have had in my collection god know how many years Walkin That Walk the soulful side of R n B vols.1 to 8 Blue Mountain Records.Some fantastic and obscure stuff on these CD's.Well worth searching for.Respect.A.
Thanks much for the Rosemary Clooney album. I saw her perform a few times in the Bay Area during the early eighties and she was always superb. She only got better with age. The last time I saw her was a few years before she passed away when she performed a free afternoon concert at Snug Harbor on Staten Island. That was a real treat.
Btw, I notice that the cover art is by Anthony Dominick Benedetto, a painter who also sings now and then using his stage name, Tony Bennett.
"SOUL CARGO" Vol. 10 @320, fully tagged
http://www81.zippyshare.com/v/MNdjKH6s/file.html
I tried all the links, and Semanta Santa has a 320 rip which looks tagged, but as I enter it into iTunes it is not. I have just arrived home and quickly tagged his 320 rip, with art. So here is the fully tagged version so you won't have to take all the time to write everything from scratch. Enjoy and thanks again to all who helped get this great 320 version and complete this stellar series!
Mr Anonymous Respect - thanks for your input and also your comment that you have other comps that are as good if not better. We would all appreciate if you shared them since they are in your collection. It is very easy to upload and share so please give back ever. Just enter the links in this comment section. You made the comment, so let's see the results, thanks.
Thanks for the Soul Cargo Vol 10 in 320 kbps, even if it looks & sounds as 96 kbps. Sorry for this word, but for me it's almost unlistenable.
Thanks Gyro & Santa
Rare Tracks from Detroit @ 320 ????

Since you've recommended Rare Tracks from Detroit vols 1 to 8 more than once, why don't you just post links for them?
I will tell you exactly why I won't post them.Up until 18months ago I had a blog and I was getting sometimes 200 to 300 downloads and not 1 thanks on some of the rare stuff I have got and where I live I have got 2mg and sometimes it was taking an hour and a half to two hours to upload one CD and I don't like sarcastic comments about not being tagged.Simples.
Magic Kaic - it could be transcoded (meaning someone took a low bit rate and bumped it up to 320.) if that's th case, then it will sound poor. I haven't listened, but at least you know that the 128 link that is posted is really 128 and doesn't sound bad. I personally tagged that one and it seems ok. I will try the 320 later today and see if it has been transcoded. There is also a check you can do to see the real bit rate of a file.
@Magic Kaic
Unlistenable? No not unlistenable. The whole series is below the fidelity standards that have been set here over the past year. I would love the series in bright crystal clear sound but unfortunately not having heard the original CDs I can only assume they are of poorer quality as well.
But I'm listening.
I just played Soul Cargo, Vol. 10 in 128 and 320. there is no difference - they both sound poor. I'm guessing that this last CD was not made with the same care as the first 9. It was released in very limited quality. Oh well, play it but don't be in the same room when it's playing, that way you can still basically enjoy it. Or, maybe we can reconstruct the same comp from the same songs from other comps.
Many thanks to everyone involved in the launch of the Soul Cargo series!
Thank you Gyro and all the others who contribute and share the Soul Cargo series

Anonymous - well then you visit here, you take, yet you don't give back Even though you could. Should we fold up our site here also because of your attitude?
Johnny D - I have listened to all the Soul Cargo Vol 1-9 these past few weeks. They sound fine. But Vol 10 doesn't sound as good as the rest. I listened to Vol. 10 with headphones, though, which can exaggerate lower fidelity. Anyway, I'll play it on speakers later today and see.
I just played Soul Cargo, Vol. 10 on my big speakers, while doing stuff around the house. It sounds fine. Not as good as the previous volumes, and kinda scratchy, but still enjoyable. I played the 128 tagged version and the 320 version that i tagged. Both are enjoyable despite their less than stellar sound.
Sorry if I hurt someone, but I was so disappointed by the sound, especially compare to the others, I was almost ready to delete it, but I listen it again, and OK I'll keep it, at least the time I find a better version... All my apologies!
Love the Soul Cargo series - well done to everyone
Magic K - I agree that Vol 1-9 sound much better. But I didn't even know there was a Volume 10, so that was a surprise. It still sounds Ok if you listen in another room and not on headphones. Maybe we will find it in better sound, or maybe the original Cd was mastered with inferior sound? If anyone has an original copy of the Cd, please send it to us to compare.
bonjour , Gyro1966 ... pour les soul cargo j'ai atendu jusqu'au bout pour voir si vous allez sortir le vol 10 , car il n'existe pas en réaliter .. il y a eu un brouillon pour les amis et puis il fallait allez dans un studio pour les faire enregistrer par la sabam ...(bruxelles ,belgique) .. une perssone a eu une connaissance de ce vol 10 et il a été enregister dans studio d'un dj ... car officiellement il n'existe pas ...
j'ai eu ce vol 10 tout au début (15 an ) et c'est exatement le même que vous avez quelque soit le telechargement c'est le même pour tous ... a ce moment là on le trouvais pas sur le net ...
voilà pour l'explication de la version vol 10 ... un inconnu de charleroi (belgique)
hello, Gyro1966 ... for the soul I atendu cargo to the end to see if you'll come out flying 10 because there is not Realiter .. there was a draft for friends and then had to go to a studio to make the record by sabam ... (Brussels, Belgium) .. an perssone had knowledge of that flight 10 and was in Register studio dj ... because officially it n does not exist ...
I had this very early flight 10 (15 year) and it's the same exatement you whatever the download is the same for all ... this time it has not found the net. ..
So much for the explanation of the flight 10 release ... an unknown charleroi (belgium)
..
Many thansk for the Souk cargo set
“Soul Cargo” handlers, take note. The now-defunct “Marginal Records” out of Belgium did oodles of (of course, “unofficial”...) stuff, put out using a number of CD "labels"... (“Missing,” etc.) and/or catalog no. / “prefixes”...
NOTE to sound hounds and Oddio-geeks with dog ears (Hi, Jillem!):
MOST of this stuff is sourced from RECORDS.
Supposedly the kopyrite kops were hot on the trail of the label’s owner and he took himself out... in a garage... utilizing a car’s exhaust to do the deed.
And by alla that I mean he committed suicide. (For those who can't “read in to it” and somehow merely get “he went out in to his garage”... out of alla that...)
I am sure there are some such sites with all the sordid details on the weird wild web...
For a time, someone "took over" and offered his wares on the usual suspect auction sites. These were CD-Rs.
Anyhow, here is where you can get a taste of what all came out back in the day.
And no, by that, I DO NOT mean “1966”......(!):
