Crazy 'Bout My Baby- Robert Mosely
The first time I heard a Robert Mosely tune was in the movie "Green Book." I tracked it down and this track here was on the other side. Not sure which is the A-side, but they are both terrific.
California Soul- Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell
Love the 5th Dimension version, and somehow this Marvin & Tammi version got by me. Been playing this one, since it is new to my ears.
Live Again- Irma Thomas
Had no idea this track existed until "Schitt's Creek" used it over the closing credits. Turns out it is an unreleased Bacharach-David track tossed onto Irma's anthology CD as a bonus track.
Anotherloverholeinyourinhead- Prince
"Parade" is Prince's unsung masterpiece, best heard as a whole. But here is one of the singles anyway.
She'll Drive The Big Car- David Bowie
A shoulda been a hit from Bowie's "Reality" record.
Misfits- The Kinks
The Kinks Arista years are spotty, mostly due to bad choices in production. "Misfits" as a whole, is one of the better records, in part to the gorgeous title track.
Old Records Never Die- Ian Hunter
Our friend Bill suggested Ian's "Short Back N Sides" as a "left turn" on this week's post. It had been awhile since I played that one, so I did and it really held up. Thanks Bill.

Thanks! I just got the 6-CD reissue of "1999" and can't wait to hear - but yes, "Parade" is soooo good.
love these selections
You had me at Irma Thomas. Many thanks for doing up your zip. Cheers!
Misfits is one of my favorite Kinks songs--a great choice. And glad you liked spinning the Hunter!
