Velma Perkins - Yes, My Goodness Yes/ Johnson, Hawkins, Tatum & Durr - You Can't Blame Me

by Deptford Northern Soul Club Records

  • Record/Vinyl

    Two major soul sides, one from the Twinight catalogue, one from Capsoul

    Velma Perkins is the sister of guitarist, songwriter and producer Al Perkins (whose Atco 45 ‘Nothing Is Impossible’ was a big northern sound)

    A successful songwriter in her own right under her married name Vee Allen, ‘Yes, My Goodness, Yes’ was the flipside of her only Twinight single, her 1970 debut 45 ‘I’ll Always Love You’

    With more than a touch of Diana-era Supremes, it’s a gorgeous uptempo groove with typical Twinight horns and a funky guitar that could well be Al himself lending a hand

    It’s a super rare 45 that never seems to come up for sale these days

    Cut with Johnson, Hawkins, Tatum & Durr’s debut single for Capsoul, ‘You Can’t Blame Me’

    Signed to the label by DJ and singer Bill Moss (his ‘Sock It To ‘Em Soul Brother’ on Pama is a corker) as The Revelations, the band changed name and cut two 45s before disappearing

    A super soulful funky mid tempo tune that lets all five (even though there are just four names in their chosen name) vocalists lay down a super plush soundtrack

    Punctuated with strings, it’s a magnificent full-on sound, that goes for over £30 on seven-inch
