Sidney Joe Qualls "I Don't Do This" (1974 Brunswick)

Classic work from this massively overlooked 70s soul singer! The set's one of a rare few albums cut by Sidney Joe Qualls – a fantastic talent who's probably better known for his work behind the scenes, and as a songwriter, than he is as a voice on his own. The session is produced with a style that kind of mixes Brunswick Chicago soul with rootsier southern elements – stepping proud in the 70s territory of Johnnie Taylor or Tyrone Davis, but sounding way way better here, and with a much more independent vibe. Plus, the album boasts some incredible material – original tunes written by the likes of Sam Dees, Clifford Davis, George Davis, and others. Titles include "Shut Your Mouth", "Run To Me", "I Enjoy Loving You", "Please Help Me", "Can't Get Enough of Your Love", and "The Next Time I Fall in Love".

Kim Weston - Greatest Hits and Rare Classics

http://www.discogs.com/Kim-Weston-Greatest-Hits-Rare-Classics/release/1521134

Motown Treasure

By Jim Bagley
During her years at Motown (1963-1966), Kim Weston displayed one of most impressive vocal ranges in popular music. She could soulfully shout out the big ballad "Love Me All The Way" up in the stratosphere, settle in nicely at mid-range for the breezily melodic "Looking For The Right Guy," and then hit the duskier regions with the slow-building ballad "A Thrill A Moment." Whatever the range, none of these early Motown singles of Weston's were big hits, though each has its moments.
Stylistically, Weston was most adept at uptempo tunes, as her biggest solo hits, the infectious and rowdy "Take Me In Your Arms" and "Helpless," as well as her hit duet with Marvin Gaye on "It Takes You" attest. Still, she preferred ballads and they dominate the solo tracks - the A and B-sides of her eight Motown singles - which largely comprise this collection as well as the out of print 1991 US version of Motown's Greatest Hits And Rare Classics.
For the more "mature" side of Motown, get this CD today. For more of Weston, check out her post-Motown Volt album Kim, Kim, Kim (also available as an import). It's great too!

Thanks for posting with zippy. I have tried to dl your postings on fileupload but have never, never got one of them. They start with a great burst of speed and then die. I tried to get the Freda Payne albums over 20 times, and the Trojan Story 12 times, never got more than a few mgbts and they died. I am not complaining just letting you know how it is for me. It just maybe my computer. I have followed you for a long time and am grateful for all the hard work you do. (ditto ryp & gyro and all the rest).
I read this over several times and thought to erase it, but I'm going to post it.

Big tanx to Jillem for all his great posts.

Note to lemonflag: I have had difficulty with the file-upload posts too. What I have found is that they work much better late at night or very early in the morning. Maybe reduced web traffic helps.

Thanx for Sidney!

There's a few of us struggling with file-upload. Again, not a complaint (too much appreciation for what y'all do over here) but file-upload ain't a spot on zippyshare (I know file size is limited with ZS) or even the other one you were using (the name of which I can't recall, but it had the cartoon monsters on the home page) & I'd love to know why it won't work for me. Like Lemonflag, the downloads stop after a handful of megabytes. Can't work out why...
