love don't love nobody meaning

Love is a word so it can't love anybody. He’s listening to Bell’s arrangement, so spare, so subtly sophisticated as it adds strings and backing voices, and he’s making himself a part of it, even when he jams over the long fade.One other thing. He never moves far from the way it first fell on his ears. “Black Music” was a great magazine with properly researched, in-depth articles from amongst others; Tony Cummings, Carl Gayle and Dave Godin. Equally as unsuccessful for me is Boz covering ‘I’m So Proud’ – ‘I don’t dig his falsetto – but this is is small nagging. True love never fails. True love never fails. Oh no! Been listening to it for a day now and love it.Remixing the backing track of the Fantastic Johnny C’s “Boogaloo Down Broadway”, as I recall…I think the first time I heard the Spinners original was on the Mike Raven show when he used to phone US black music stations and ask the djs what was selling this week.

. That knowledge doesn’t make me listen to it in a different way, but perhaps it does help to explain the very deep connection that it can make.Boz Scaggs does a decent job on a song of which he is obviously very fond.

Plus, a Boz session is overdue.When you have that session, John, don’t miss “Near You” from Moments and “Sierra” from Some Change…Bits of “Fool to Care” are better than the best of “Memphis” and bits are worse than the worst.

Great post Richard!There have been few more joyous sights than Philippe Wynne skipping unselfconsciously round the stage like a child in a playground. I love the anecdote about Thom Bell as well – he was such a craftsman, and his Stylistics and Delfonics productions are also worth re-evaluation. Even the great B B King would throw in a song or two.Fill in your details below or click an icon to log in:Enter your email address to follow this blog and receive notifications of new posts by email.The title of this blog is taken from my book The Blue Moment, published by Faber & Faber in 2009, in which I tried to look at how Miles Davis’s Kind of Blue had influenced half a century of modern music, from La Monte Young and Terry Riley through James Brown, John Cale and Brian Eno to Arve Henriksen and the Necks. In that respect he was the peer of Ronald Isley and Teddy Pendergrass.

As long as Boz Scaggs goes on making records, I imagine I’ll keep buying them. True love suffers through all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Truly a golden period.Another great post, Richard – ashamed to say I hadn’t heard “Love Don’t Love Nobody”. But true love is unconditional. the author conveys that love cannot be done without loving somebody...you can't … Truly a golden period.Another great post, Richard – ashamed to say I hadn’t heard “Love Don’t Love Nobody”. And a man who can deliver a decent cover of something as extraordinary as Mable John’s “Your Real Good Thing (Is About to End)”, as he did on The Spinners’ “Love Don’t Love Nobody” was one of the finest soul records of the 1970s, and still sounds to me like one of the greatest deep-soul ballads of all time. You can sign in to give your opinion on the answer. Thanks for the memory jog, Richard. I don’t feel qualified to critique the Boz cover of ‘Love Don’t Love Nobody’, although given the Spinners reading, I agree it’s a stretch. He’s still in fine voice.Weirdly a new version of this has just turned up on the latest CD by Billy Price and Otis Clay – ‘This Time For Real’. Still not as good as the original (it doesn’t have that arrangement for a start), but a good version nonetheless (and Otis Clay still sounds great). By the definition of “normal,” no, it’s not normal, but that doesn’t mean that it’s a bad thing. No YouTube clips (too new I guess) but you can listen to soundclips of the CD at Soulbrother:Here’s a live version record a few months before Otis Clay’s death:I get chills when at the end Philippé Wynne sings “I’m gonna love you, I’m gonna need you all wa ay ay ay ays…” You can tell that’s coming from a man who has been through some s**t.Thom Bell… words fail me. He’s listening to Bell’s arrangement, so spare, so subtly sophisticated as it adds strings and backing voices, and he’s making himself a part of it, even when he jams over the long fade.One other thing. When I told him how much I admired “Love Don’t Love Nobody”, he said that he’d worked on that session a year or so earlier. Submit lyrics correction → 55k Like.

But I can’t help wondering if, had he known about Thom Bell’s tears, he’d still have decided to take it on.‘Mighty Love’ is such a great record – agree with your comments about ‘Love Don’t Love Nobody’, but ‘Since I Been Gone’ and ‘He’ll Never Love You Like I Do’ (the latter sung by the much missed Bobbie Smith I think) are also masterpieces of minor key soul.
