The Valentinos
Tired of Livin' in the Country
Audio File Deleted
From 1964 on Sam Cooke's SAR label. Sam wrote this one too and you can hear a little melodic similarity to his song "Another Saturday Night." The Valentinos featured future soul star Bobby Womack, who controversially married Sam's widow after his bizarre and untimely death. This is the flip of "It's All Over Now" which the Rolling Stones covered a bit later...
*edit - By the way, that skipping thing, where the beat slips? It's not the 45 skipping and it's not a digital glitch. I'm not sure what is going on there. If anyone else has a copy of this song, either on cd or vinyl, I'd be curious to know if this is a bad edit on the original master, or what?

Yeah, you can definitely tell that's a Sam Cooke song.
Any more thoughts on a possible podcast? I'm thinking a tight 15 minute thing, four spins and your commentary, would be great. It could simply consist of the four most recent 45s from the blog. You have the perfect voice for it, too.
Regardless, this blog fills a much-needed niche, so keep up the good work.
Thanks Hank! I have still been thinking about it. I'm still waiting for a book on the subjest to come through the store. I'll get around to it eventually though...
the beat slips???
where & when?
sound the same as the SAR cd
thanks
It's aroun 1:56 - 2:00 on the player count. Sounds like the drummer misses a few beats or something? Am I crazy?
no you ain't that crazy
it's the same on the SAR cd2
it's a drunk Johnnie Morisette
who sings the bass
may be the drummer had a few drinks too
the triumph of Sam Cooke
