Rjd2's poorboy lover mix

[united states of audio]

right, I've been doing some digging around the web and turned up nothing. I'm looking for a track listing to RJD2's Poorboy Lover Megamix on the 'Your face or your Kneecaps' CD. Its a mix of funk 45s in a similar style to Brainfreeze. I've asked on his own forum and no one seems to know anything.

Does anyone know this mix and have any track IDs?

cheers.

Try over at Soulstrut. They started doing the tracklist there.

Off the top of my head...

Ray Bryant 'Above The Rock'
Mr C. And Funck Junction 'Hot Butter 'N' All Part 2.' (Part 1. is by Lou Courtney, hence Mr. C. I assume...).

These both appear just before he breaks out 'Let The Good Times Roll' (not sure if he actually uses the 45 of 'Tiger'?) but
I'll have another listen - I should know more than that...

[Mr Divine]

Aaaargh! I've had a copy of this mix for ages and had controlled my urge for a tracklisting... 'til now. Most is fairly classic stuff (Nite-Liters, Meters etc.) but I'll have another listen and see if I can help you.

I actually tried to get him to come over to DJ, so phoned the number on the back of the CD to be met with a "how d'you get this number???". It's on the back of your CD, duh!

He's doing a UK tour fairly soon, John S is having him play in Bristol.

he puts on a good (reasonably) educated show - better than that DJcashmoney gubbins - if he's in your area, check it out!

its probably really obvious, but I'd like to know who does that hip hop track 'double trouble' which pops up about halfway thru !?!

I haven't heard the mix. But it could be the Stoop Rap from the Wild Style soundtrack?

[formigo]

I can help out with a few of these I think.

Haven't got the CD to hand right now though, so I don't know the track numbers of the ones I know.

Speaking of the RJD2 live set, I'd love to know what the last track he uses in his routine is, some fast funky rock thing which he scratches "Oh yeah baby let the good times roll" vocal over the top off.

That track is ridiculous.

Just remembered that 'Love Of A Woman' by Lighthouse is on there. Now I know Vertigo made a 45 of 'One Fine Morning', but this???

Are you sure ? - I must have missed that.

Anyway, the "title track" is from Jim Ingram's "Drum Beat"
I haven't listened to the mix in a long time and can not remember any other details, but I know that I also failed to identify a lot of them.

By the way: Is "Rain" only on this mix CD or did it ever come out on vinyl ?

[Blighty]

There was definitely a tracklist started at the Soulstrut forums. I can't remember how far people got and the boards all changed since then so it won't be in the archives but someone might have what was done saved.

As for 'Rain', it came out as a 45 on Bustown Pride with 'Find You Out' on the flip.
