@Jocelyn: also the occasional men? Kink in de Kabel BTW is a tri that consists of 2 Kinks-friends and me. www.youtube.com...
  3:38pm John from Florham park:

@Shelia it has gotten to the point where I only listen to the BBC and the CBC radio Australia and a few other international stations, although if trump and his minions have their way it could be jammed somehow
  3:38pm P-90:

Sure, Barry White, Sinatra, etc. can be described as “sultry.” “Sultry” is not synonymous with “breathy” or “moany”, it’s more about a mood.
  3:38pm justinseeling:

chris isaak is some sultry stuff
  3:38pm Donnie:

anything by The Fall is sultry right?

Does the James White and the Blacks song Stained Sheets have male moaning too? I can't recall off the top of my head.
  3:43pm daisy:

Serge Gainsbourg n Scott Walker are sultry as heck
Avatar ♥ 3:44pm djsheilab:

Thanks gang! And if you have specific song titles that would be fab.
  3:44pm P-90:

General definition of “sultry”:

1.
a. Very humid and hot: sultry July weather.
b. Extremely hot; torrid: the sultry sands of the desert.
2.
a. Expressing sexual desire: a sultry look.
b. Arousing sexual desire: a sultry dance.

—of course, when one is using the word to describe any kind of art or performance, there are colloquial subtleties that apply to its interpretation.

We need HOT n' HEAVY MALE VOCALS! Subtle is fine too. But I'm essentially looking for the Sylvia Robinson / Julie London of the men.
  3:45pm Joe B:

My vote goes for Prince’s “The Beautiful Ones”
Avatar S.B. Boomer: Marathon 2022 Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:46pm The Oscar:

If you haven't heard it, you really ought to hear "Candy Licker" by Marvin Sease, but I can't imagine a universe where you can play it on the radio. Maybe my favorite "single-entendre" song.
  3:46pm MG:

The Book Lovers always takes me back to a certain time in college...red light bulbs, cigarettes and flirty looks. sigh.
  3:46pm John from Florham park:

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:47pm northguineahills:

Trish!
  3:47pm P-90:

I totally agree that every name that’s been posted has made records that can be described as “sultry.” Or “really, really sultry.”
Avatar S.B. Boomer: Marathon 2022 Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:47pm frozen_peas:

Bruce Springsteen's I'm on Fire is pretty damn sultry

How is it that whenever PP Arnold covers a song it automatically becomes the best version of said song? (See also: First Cut is the Deepest, Angel of the Morning)

For a long time I thought Linda Ronstadt was the ftrst one to record Different drum, but it's The Greenbriar Boys ('66)

Just see on YouTube that P.P. Arnold recorded Different drum also in 1998

Oh, I forgot about Beth. I'd rather hear Shandi, but I doubt that will happen.

Been in the interview wilderness for months, and now have gotten at least four more in the last week. (late summer, early winter seems to be the best time to apply, losing one's job in early winter, not so much).

@Sheila: The version of P.P. Arnold that should be from '67 is the same as the one from '98, so no need to look for that '67-one. It doesn't exist.

@Joe B - I was listening to DNA on my way into work today and was thinking after Sheila's moaning request that Arto would definitely fit in there. His moaning seems a little more gutteral than sultry.
