#72 – Only a Smile
Thanks to a great suggestion by listener Randy, I put together a handful of versions of the Sensations (featuring Johnny Osbourne on lead) “Come Back Darling” rhythm. Then it’s a longer version excursion of the Paragons (featuring John Holt) “Come Back Darling.” I hope you like both of these songs. Otherwise you’re in for a long night!

Josh, your podcast just keeps getting better and better, as proven by those encouraging e-mails and my rapt attention. Of special enjoyment was Johnny Osbourne’s Come Back Darling, and Lyn Taitt and The Jets Only a Smile. My favorite was Pat Kelly’s Only a Smile. I never get tired of hearing Only a Smile, so a big up for playing it repeatedly! Good vibs!

Josh, we are still listening to all the Podcast, mainly on the Phones these days, this one takes me back to the early eighties, the afterbeat, reminds me of the tunes they use to play
in the Blues parties,
A excellent choice, really enjoyed this one, it must be hard work to carrie on , once a month is all you will be able to cope with, this Library is now big enough for us to flip from dance to
easy listening.
A Podcast with the DJs from U Roy ( wear u to the ball + treasure isle skank-(Duke Ried) ) Alcapone, Big Youth( s 90 skank ,wolf in sheep clothing)
