Wade in the Water.
It's a negro spiritualist song from way back.
It's been covered many times and in different styles.
My favourite version is the one in the vid and an instrumental version by the Ramsey Lewis Trio.

Fixed.

wtf? Nevermind?

I asked who sang that before clicking on the vid. I really like the song, but I remember not really digging NS a few years back. I'm thinking maybe I should give it another shot. Most of it is just as danceable right? *unsure*

It's all danceable 60's R&B. It's the criteria for a Northern Soul record. That and being rare.
If it's not danceable, it's not Northern.

Werd. I'll sift through your thread....

right-track · 04-03-2009, 09:58 AM

Yeah whatever.

Back OT...what about the trainers man?

adidasss · 04-03-2009, 10:14 AM

I dunno if I posted mine before, I've had them a while now and they're still the prettiest sneakers ever...
