Heres the full story, big thanks to Dave for passing on Last night was the first promotion at Roar Nightclub in Bilston. And what a good night it turned out to be. This venue is going to establish itself very quickly as the top two room event in the Midlands. Upstairs was the Modern room, and although I didnt spend much time in there I pop up a couple of times to see how it was going on.

Music was provided by John Pugh, Blue Max, Jordi, Gary Holyman, and the irrepressible Gavin Page (Who greeted me over the mic the first time I went up by saying "Rimmer, youre in the wrong room, piss off !"). Trouble is, the bloke does have such immaculate taste in Soul music. Numbers in the Modern room varied all night, as they did in the Sixties room with people going from one room to the other and back. Because of that its going to be hard to put a figure on how many there were through the door, but Id guess at over 150. Downstairs, my territory (Its where the bar was, and a pint of bitter was only £1.40, in a nightclub for Gods sake !).
Des Parker started procedings off with a well thought out set of unknowns, rarities and cheapies whilst people started to come in, get drinks, and find seats. Kenny Onions was next up, and Ken went straight for the jugular with a set of storming Oldies mixed in wth a few Newies. As expected, people started to dance at this point. I took over at 11.00 pm and played a set which contained more Oldies than I usually play, but I still managed to slip things like The Magnectics and The Vondells in there mixed in with some uptempo R&B.
John Pugh took over from me and the floor almost caught fire, whilst there were a lot of regulars off the scene there, the night had also pulled a lot of locals in as well, so Oldies were the order of the day. Blue Max joined John downstairs as well, so The Catacombs lived again for a while.
Guy Hennigan was next up, half of the original Sixties Mafia, in full force, to a great dance floor reaction. Starting off with the Back Street instrumental it just got better and better. Full respect to Guy, he doesnt get any where near the number of bookings he should these days. Fortunately hes one of the residents at Bilston, so hell be back next time as well.
The last spot should have been Little Scotty, but for whatever reason, he didnt arrive, so the last hour was covered by Rob Haigh for quarter of a hour, and then Guy Hennigan went back on to finish the night off. To sum it up, the venues good, the dance floors good, the bar prices are good, the fact its two rooms is good, the DJ line ups good, and with room for a few more bodies this will turn into a top night. The next one is on November the 24th. Get yourself along. Dave Rimmer Soulful Kinda Music Magazine&Web Site http://members.tripod.com/SoulfulKindaMusic/

Started the weekend in just the right way, a really good soul night at Willington. This is a really cool venue: a good sized dance floor thats in good repair, a pretty good sound system and a reasonably cheap bar. I think those assets just about cover the requirements of most soulies I know!
WILLINGTON and LOUGHBOROUGH REVIEW

Started the weekend in just the right way, a really good soul night at Willington. This is a really cool venue: a good sized dance floor thats in good repair, a pretty good sound system and a reasonably cheap bar. I think those assets just about cover the requirements of most soulies I know!

The music policy is across the board, but the emphasis (for me) does lean slightly towards oldies. Not that Im complaining, I havent been out a lot recently, so it was nice to feel so comfortable with the music. I never made or asked for playlists, (havent been writing much of late) but once I got there I danced most of the night. Fellow KTFr, Nogsy was there, as was Andy Humberston, and if either of them read this they may be able to remember some of the plays (for those interested) ;-)
All in all (cliché time) I was sick as a parrot that the night didnt go on a little longer, but thats can you ever get too much of a good thing? For anyone who hasnt made the trip to Willington, I would say give it a go, youll probably be pleasantly surprised.

So its now Saturday, Id asked Steve Heinsen and his good wife Janet, if I could scrounge a lift with them to Loughborough and they agreed. By the time we arrived (just before 9:30) the car park already had quite a few cars in it (that could be a case of stating the bleeding obvious) so the night looked promising. And for me I think the promise was fulfilled. The venue was pretty full by 11 and everybody seemed to be enjoying themselves, there were quite a few in from the thriving Nottingham circuit, Carl and Andy Riley with his wife Debs to name but a few.

There was also a fair sprinkling of the species KTF. As already mentioned, Steve and Janet, Alan Gibbons, Andy Humberston, Peter Burton, Nogsy, Mark Sanders, the Rimmerman, Spanner, Chris Anderton and as usual there will be others that Ive forgotten to name.:-) I spent the night flitting between the small room (which included sets from Andy H, Nogsy and Peter B) and the main hall. Best set for me in the main room, well the Rimmerman took the prize. He managed to keep Spanner dancing/walking/yomping all night. ;-) A few of us had a chat and we came up with the idea of getting Spanner one of those "For great Northern Soul dancing, put your feet here, here, and here mats. Amaze your friends, youll never take up quite so much room again" :-)
I thought Dave played an excellent set, as ever, and the floor was heaving during his spot. Again no playlists, mainly because I was too busy dancing. Last spot of the night in the main room belonged to Derek Allen, the Mr Motivator of the Northern DJ circuit, he is just so enthusiastic you cant help but be carried along.

My only grizzle is about the dance floor, which was a composite material that was IMO already quite fast, and after a few had liberally covered it in talc became even faster. Im not going to go into the should you shouldnt you talc the floor, as Ive made my feelings on this subject known before. That really was the only moan I had, it was for me an excellent night with great atmosphere, great music and great company. Once again I urge you to give it a go if you havent been, and to go back if you have.
A big pat on the back to Mark Sanders for working so hard to make it a success, and a further pat on the back for his lovely wife Leanne, for dancing.:-)

waldorf Plays- Derek Pearson

Background history on the Waldorf: Its a small upstairs
function room of a pub to the rear of the Twisted
Wheel/Placemate Seven club near Piccadilly station. I've dj'd
here before and musically its anywhere from traditional
northern to two step. A broad canvas indeed. A place to be experimental
if you wish. The place was packed I've never seen it so full, Butch and
Dave Thorley were guesting as well so all the ingredients were there
for a good night.

Johnny Gilliam "Take me back" (Modern) forgotten oldie.Soulfull as hell
Scotty Williams "Fear" (Mona Lee) as above - less is more
Dells "Thinking about you" (Cadet) truly fabulous just listen to it.
New Sounds "Don't take your love" (Turbo LP) orgasmic
Willie Tee "Peeped your hole card" (Gatur)
currently working people up into a frenzy
Keni Lewis "Whats her name" (Buddah) I keep playing it
Towana & Total Explosions "Help me get this feeling back" (Romark)
girls on top with great flip too
Shirley Wahls "Thats how long I'm gonna love you" (King)
Another girly stormer with quality flip "Why am I crying"
Johnny Robinson "Gone but not forgotten" (Okeh)quality oldie
guess who sold it for £6 in 1984 'cos it clicked (soon get another
copy) then had to pay £100 in 1996 to get a copy back. doh
Friendly People "Nothing but the blues" (VMP)
where are all the copies now?
Larry Brown "Moving on" (Vent)
Eddie Billups "Shake off that dream" (SS7) awesome flip side as well
Betty Swann "Kiss my love goodbye" (Atlantic)
Bros.Guiding Light "Get together"(Mercury) love it love it
Four Tracks "Charade"(Note) if this is heaven....
Danny Woods "Had me fooled"(Correctone) decent flip as well
Kenny Carlton "Lost and found" (Blue Rock)
Four Tracks "Like my love" (Mandingo)
Joseph Moore "Still can't get to you" (Marvlus) flips good too
Soul Communicators "Lonely nights" (Fee Bee) don't come much better
Tangeers "Let my heart and soul" (Okeh)
Masqueraders "Do you love me baby"(Wand) grits an' all
Bobby Thurston "Just ask me" (Mainline LP)
C.L.Blast "Love don't feel like love" (Cotillion LP)
Ron Keith "Can't live with you" (A&M)
Staple Singers "Trippin on your love" (Stax LP)
Miss Louistine "I don't want to love nobody else" (NWE)

A tale of what went on at the wilton by Chalkie
Well what can I say aboout this place except superb. Great venue and the music is what I like to hear at a nighter (hardly an overplayed oldie insight).
The nearest I can compare this venue to is the 100 Club.

Travelled up with fellow soul-talkers Andy Mac and Mick Brown, got there just after 11pm and straight to the bar to oil the tonsils. First person I met was Kenny (100 Club) and then Mark Hansan. Andy Dyson was at the decks playing some shit hot rarities. Some nice mid tempo items and then a few dancers to get the crowd goin. Stand out track was, according to Andy was Bobby Bennett Try Me Baby???, although he could have been bullshittin. Bumped into Barry James, Paul Mac and Derek Pearson.

It really is the next best nighter after the 100 Club, dare I say it maybe better, better venue certainly.

The policy of using "collectors" rather than so called big name DJs seems to be working well with a great choice of records spun that you really dont hear at too many venues. Fresh vibrant upfront 60s newies with some quality xover and the odd 80s track thrown in.

Stand out tracks for me were the Moments-You Said (Deep), James Lately-Love Friends and Money (Temple), Paulette-Love You Babe (Contact) and the awesome Lonnette-Blue Jeans (MS) what a fuckin record, extremely rare as well, plus too many others that Ive forgot (memory not as good, must take a pen with me next time). Not much of a report as the brain is still a little scrambled. Deffo a venue I shall attend again and recommend a visit to anyone wanting a quality night out.

A fair few other events on this weekend, Birchfield, Dundee, Stafford, Bretby, Northampton, Wolves, Bilston etc etc, As always am shouting for views and reviews so if you have any words send them in and let rest of soul world know what went on, and also give your local/top events some exposure.
Well that time came round again, time to brave the M1/M6 and get down to North London, for the CSC event at Dome. After a good nighter last weekend refreshed my faith, was well in the mood for some quality rare soul, and a quality nite out. Got there about 10.30, with still a queue outside, got in, and straight away felt the buzz, place was fairly packed, sounds system working great and atmosphere was….well. …atmospheric. Stuart Tyler who was standing in for Irish Greg (who was on at a Spanish weekender) was just finishing his spot so missed him yet again. Spoke to Matt J, who told me his offer of free entry to the first people who turned up with a Bombay Aloo meal complete with all the bits was successfully claimed. Record bar was busy with usual wheelers and dealers - Mark Hanson, Andy Dyson, Roger Banks (also main guest Dj), and more. My vinyl budget is well in red so kept well away from that den of inequity.
Did a fair bit of catching up , so added Trivia points, name checks and odds at the end. Caught up with a bit of feedback on recent events from those who went, Llandudno: all who went said top, enjoyable event and going to next one Wilton: getting the name as the No 1 Rare Soul niter of the North, Someone said the buzz they got off the rare sounds there was equal to the 100 club at its best.
Crowd wise, well have said it many times before, top crowd, well mixed, and up for it, mentioned the atmosphere just seems to be a air of excitement about the place and the way the crowd "reacts" to the sounds. People from all over, were there - North and South Wales, Scotland, all parts of England, international wise usually miss them out but did speak to a few first time Australians. Dance floor wise don't think saw it less than a third full all night, packed full a fair part of the nite, the overall crowd dropped off round one-ish but the dancefloor constantly got used right to the traditional packed ending. Last 30 minutes finale was handled by David Flynn with The Drifter being the last but one, reaction after playing this one was a mass round of spontaneous applause from the packed floor. Not just your usual couple of claps but …well just say anyone who is getting jaded with things should have been there, could just hear the enthusiasm and enjoyment of the crowd in the clapping. Then more of the same with the Trends finishing the nite off, then onto a quick regroup and coffee at M1 services and then the joys of getting home. Sounds wise -Did hear a fewbits of discontent from some with the amount of revivals played, and the balance did seem to swing a bit more that way than usual. To me ratio seemed about like 1 revival in 4. Suppose the full playlists will prove that right or wrong, though gotta say that balance wise, with all different styles, as in revivals, one offs, r+b, raities, traditional, 70s etc the balance seemed to work to me, think it was Roger Banks who said "here's one to keep everyone happy" and reckon that was achieved on the night.
Speaking off balance and various tastes. Off on a tangent, went to a event recently and had a great time, with some well enjoyable sounds, though found out afterwards that whilst enjoying myself, the "play some proper northern" gang went off complaining to the promoters and anyone else who was listening about the fact that their regular diet of teenage memories were interrupted by djs having the audacity to play other stuff, oblivious to the fact that a fair few punters were enjoying it. Gripped my goat this as thought how many times have sat thru "classic spots" and thought fair enough, some people enjoy this sort of thing, will go and have a look round bar or similar. Perhaps answer is instead of doing that should play their game and every time hear likes of "that's not love" or "just a little misunderstanding" go and give promoters earache. On same sort of vein someone said last nite, wonder how many people at other events who now flock to the floor when the likes of "world of happiness" and other newly available stuff is played, where the ones who slagged and abused the northern djs who were playing it and similar yonks ago.
Anyway back to the nite here's a rough sounds guide
Yet again working off a fast fading memory, so details may be a bit sparse and even some errors might even creep in, and obviously some of the first hears/rarities will be missing, hopefully all djs will continue the trend of passing on full playlists once they have recovered!
Warm Up Guest - Paco
Totally missed the warm up/opportunity knocks spot where CSC give up and coming DJs chance to show what they are made of, hopefully someone will pass on
Stand In Regular - Stuart Tyler
After doing such a top job on his appearance as warm up, Stuart T was chosen to stand in for Irish Greg who was off dj-ing in Spain. Grabbed his top five off him, quality stuff, going by reports if you're after a quality set for your event give him a shout
Hattie Lydells - Heartaches Trouble Misery and Pain - Jobette Acetate
Deadbeats -no second chance-strata
Martha Starr - Love is the only solution - Thelma
Soul Communicators- Lonely Nights - Fee Bee
Liz Lands - Midnight Johnie-Jobette Acetate
Carl Fortnum - delivered his usual strikingly good set mixing rare one offs with rare and worthwhile revivals including likes of
Frank Foster - Moods - Bell Acetate - Pounding instrumental building up be a monster
Anita Anderson - Secretly - Contact - up in soul sounds as part of latest dome mix
Love Slave - Antellects- Flodavieur - big mid 90s-00 spin, not heard much recently, but apparently just bought for big bucks by NW Dj so expect it to be given a new lease of life
Martha Starr - Sweet Temptation - Charay- up in soul sounds as part of latest dome mix
Alan H - issued out his own unique style mix of r+b, tumbleweed, and up-tempo soul such as
Allen sisters- downtown crowd -quality test pressing
Day-tripper - JJ Barnes -ric tic - bit of a neck turner this, went down well with some
Love slipped thru my fingers- Towanda Barnes
Tommy Navarro- I cried my life away-- de jac
David Flynn - threw at us his usual quality stuff including:
The Jokers - Soul Sound Sko-Filed
Donna Loren -Blowing Out The Candles - Capitol
My Proposal - Soul Inc - Coconut Groove
I Need A Man -Precious Three Ref-O-Ree
Hayes Cotton -Black Wings Have My Angel Resist
Edwin Starr -Scott’s On Swingers
Roger Banks - Doing the main guest spot, started off his set with words similar to "Best Soul Nite in Country" and gave us a great set, mixing it up all the way, rare r+b, quality revivals and stunning seventies. Appreciation was shown by the floor remaining busy through out.
Left out - Jesse Johnson - old town
Soul Bros. Inc-Pyramid
Memory’s fading away now so details dodgy
Cadets instrumental - title anyone
R+B track that used same backing of the travelling salesman one -
Either you can’t have your cake or which side is your bread buttered on - know it was one of them or even maybe both!
Finish - as said DF took the last half hour with usual finish on a high set, which included
Chandlers-Your Love Makes Me Lonely
Jesse Davis - Gotta Hang On In There Girl
The Drifter - Ray Pollard
Trends- Thanks For A Little Loving
That’s about it then hopefully memory not failed me too much. Final thoughts, overall another enjoyable cracking nite, not the best one ever but will say up to the usual high standards and still gotta say, if you know of any soul nite that is up to this standard of atmosphere and sounds and enjoyable let us know asp As always thoughts above are just my own views on it all, feel different, agree or whatever just send them in.
Mike
Trivia:
Spent a bit of time catching up, various odd bits of trivia that retained were
Clare told me she was still shouting for a 45 – Oh Mama - C M Lord - capitol 4262, heard possible hard to trace as its flip of country style a side, anyone help her out???
Dave G passed on his event at Greenwich, London is going well, mixing Northern and Funk and going well, on first Saturday of each month (full details posted soon on site)
Mike Hump and Julie passed on a Cd full of photos from Rarest of Rare, 100 Club, and more. Should be up on site next couple of days
Johnny T spoke about future plans for Valatones, next one up on 20 Oct and flyer has Ian Levine now as a regular.
Jo ”How many jobs do I do” Wallace was taking care of cloakroom after her guesting on Wire FM up there in Warrington and later Dj-ing with PTP up at Runcorn last week. Have been told her spot on radio was “brilliant” apparently she had a “free “ hand to do and say what she liked and it was a right old laugh. Plus feedback from her and PTPs spot at Runcorn was it went down well and the punters really enjoyed it.
Simon - was saying how the Brighton all-dayers have proved very successful, said may not be so many of them in winter months, but says the one on tomorrow (Sunday) is looking at being another cracker.
Quote of the nite- was passed this one on, from someone from up Yorkshire on first visit "Can't believe have missed this, husband is in his element, this is what its all about"
Laugh of the nite - Getting a phone call at six to see how far had got, as traffic on M6 was bad, “err ........ still in the bath” Name checks: All usual suspects were there, the usual gang mike, Andy, Julie with their plans of invading Llandudno at the Connoisseurs weekend in March, getting windows boarded up now. Pop up Pete popped up, Katrina fresh from travels to Oslo and Berlin, The two North Wales exiles Gary and Dave, Pete Coulson, Barry and crew who must have put some miles in this weekend, NW to London and then onto Hull, Most Wanted Nick Brown flyering the next Notre Dame on 19th Oct with Adey C as guest, Neil and his mate carrying on where we both left off at Llandudno i.e. at a bar, Rob C back from holiday Plus to all of the usual lot knocking around.

Few words and playlist from last Albrighton niter from CSC Dj and man behind the fine Anoracks Corner Website, David Flynn

Next up at 2am was my bad-self on my first deck duty there. Well, below is my play list and as you can see I treated em to the kinda tracks that get the Dome dance-floor bouncing. I was particularly pleasing to receive requests for some of the emerging tracks Im playing...kinda makes it all worth while! :-) Must admit that the dance-floor didnt respond to every tune and the surprise fillers were Bobby Reed and Johnny Maestro...but then again why am I surprised as they are top tunes?!

The Precious Three went down well, as it should as did Donna Loren...both tunes Im gonna be pushing all the way! I had the pleasure of handing over the mic to the Worlds #1 NS deejay, Butch, and he rammed the floor for most of his set (well they did have a rest during my spot and were recovering after Dave Rimmers before me! ;-) ), spinning Betty Wilson, Patrinell Staten, the awesome Jean Carter c/up (I NEED THIS RECORD!), Temptones (stating that hes been spinning it for 15 years now!) and a host of his other monsters!

Big up Tait & Lin for giving me such a warm welcome and the opportnity to deejay at one of my fav NS venues

As nobody else has sent a review in of the Nantwich allnighter I thought Id better do one as it was such a good night.

The Venue first: A large dancefloor (in very good condition), with seating on a slightly raised platform one side with the record dealers set up on the opposite side. Bad planning really, the bar was on the side by the seating !

The Attendance: Considering it was the first one, and it was The Ritz in Manchester the next day, a very healthy crowd of 200 turned up.

The Music: Something to please everyone really. DJs for the night were Siomon, Chris Penn
(An absolute blinder of a spot), Roger Banks, Yours truly, Carl Willingham, Robbo, Sam
Moore, Rob Smith, and Brian Rae. So you got rarities, oldies, newies, R & B, and some odd
bits in between !

The next one is scheduled for October and there will be a seperate Moderm room at that one.
Get yourselves along, its worth the trip.

Going back a couple of Fridays and here's a review by Dave D of his adventures at the Winsford All nighter, complete with modern room playlists......
Liberation - Winsford 18.8.2001
It was my first trip to Winsford and one I had been looking forward to immensely since the beginning of the year as I promised myself that Id pay it a visit. My main reason for visiting was to establish if the recent rave reviews about the modern room, titled Liberation, were substantiated.
After a lengthy but trouble free drive from Chatham, I checked into a b&b, got changed and arrived at the warm-up at The Queens pub at 9.15. It was not very busy at that time and northern soul was blaring out to get people in the mood. Said hello to Roger Williams who was, I suppose, warming himself up for the long night ahead. Also had a chat with a few others until a minibus full of the Soul Down South crew with Terry Jones arrived at about 10.30 and seemed to take over the place. They missed the brief modern spot and was back to northern. I enjoyed The Queens - the music was good, it wasnt too busy and it was a good opportunity to have a few pints and a laugh before the allnighter.
Over to the allnighter. Poked my head in the northern room. its huge - sound system is good playing Terry Callier and John Bowie. Oh no - its gone silent; technical hitch so Im off into the modern room. Theirry Boulanger, over from Belgium for the weekend, is playing Sunshine Anderson. My wife walks straight into the room and onto the dancefloor. In fact, quite a lot of people are dancing, and its only 11.15.
The modern room is a nice small square shape. There are big potted plants and nice comfortable seats set in an almost complete rectangle shape in two corners creating a lounge bar type of environment but there was no lounging going on. The DJ and decks are on the ground, not elevated which all goes to create a intimate party atmosphere.
The music was very good ranging from 70s to brand new, rare to very easy to find but the emphasis is on good modern danceable soul music. Roger Williams and Terry Jones played their sets back to back for what seemed a marathon three hours because the music was so good.
Ive listed Rogers set below and Terry played lots of different things from Vivian Reed to the new Ollie Woodson cut due out on Expansion soon.
Tony Dawber also played a very good set of recent big tunes including Bob Sinclair, Darwin Hobbs, Freddie Jackson and Cynthia Biggs/Sharon Bryant.
The occasional tune did not do it for me but I think thats to be expected for an allnighter lasting nine hours. There was one 30 minute stint where the music was a bit eclectic for my taste but overall 95% did do it for me and thats an excellent hit rate.
An excellent crowd also made for an enjoyable night and it was well worth the long trip.

LIVONIA -- In the pine-paneled rumpus room of a nondescript brick house in a
sleepy suburb, the worlds greatest basement band is kicking some serious butt.You know these musicians, even if you never knew their names: the Funk Brothers, as they called themselves, were the uncredited studio band that laid down the intricate, funky grooves for Diana, Smokey, Marvin, Tammi, Martha and the rest of Berry Gordys stable.

Weve heard it for years -- Pistol Allens infectious shuffle on "Baby Love," Ivy
Hunters funky keyboard intro on "Pride and Joy," drummer Uriel Jones urgent beat on "Aint No Mountain High Enough."
For 15 years, a slightly changing cast of Funk Brothers plied their trade in tiny Studio
A in the back of 2648 W. Grand Blvd., coming up with the goods over and over for producers ike Smokey Robinson, Norman Whitfield, Holland-Dozier-Holland, Ashford and Simpson, and the boss, Gordy. Their reign ended abruptly in 1972.

Now, thanks to the persistence and heart of a 48-year-old, self-described "bar mitzvah" musician from New Jersey, the Funk Brothers will swing again, in a documentary being filmed in locations around Detroit next month

Legendary Soul singer, Betty Everett, passed away in her home in Beloit Wisconsin over the weekend. Her body was found by her family on Sunday.
Cause of death has yet to be determined.
Born in Greenwood Mississippi on November 23, 1939, Betty Everett is remembered primarily for one huge hit in the 60s, but she was also one of the very best soul singers and actually recorded many songs. Starting at age nine she played the piano and sang in church. She continued to sing in gospel choirs, and eventually moved to Chicago in 1957. While there she continued to sing.
She recorded songs on some of the local Chicago labels such as C.J., Cobra and OneDerful in the late 50s and early 60s, coming up with local hits such as Ill Be There and Ive Got A Claim On You. She signed a contract with VeeJay, a label that was issuing some hits by the Beatles at around the same time. Her release of "Youre No Good" just missed the top fifty late in 1963 and was covered in the UK by the Swinging Blue Jeans.
Then she hit big. Betty Everett recorded "The Shoop Shoop Song [its In His Kiss]" in the Spring of 1964 and it soared to Billboards Top-10. Other records, such as "I Cant Hear You" and "Getting Mighty Crowded" extended her fan base. She then did a duet with another prominent Chicago-area singer, Jerry Butler, and their single, "Let It Be Me" also made the top ten that year. Other Betty Everett/Jerry Butler duets came along, such as their single "Smile" and their LP "Delicious Together."
Betty Everett made a wildly successful tour of England in the mid-60s in support of these releases. After Vee Jay folded in 1967, Betty went to ABC without success before coming back on Uni in 1969 with "Therell Come A Time," her last top forty hit. This song was her first entry in the soul charts where it went to number two. Betty had five more entries in the soul charts on Uni and Fantasy by 1971. "Youre No Good" was covered by Linda Lewis in 1975 and went top ten in the UK, and went to number one in the United States in a version released by Linda Ronstadt. The song that Betty Everett is remembered for, however, is one that everybody knew in 1964, "The Shoop Shoop Song [its In His Kiss]." Betty most recently appeared on DOO WOP 51 (PBS) with Jerry Butler. It was her last public performance.

Northern Souls Classiest Rarities CDKEND192
Adey admits in his introduction that there isnt one outstanding label or theme to this compilation, other than it simply being a bunch of NS tunes that Ace/Kent have had kicking around for ages but had yet to Utilise...nothing wrong with that! Every NS fan will find plenty theyd like within the 24 tracks for sure, as it covers many a soul-genre which all go to make up the wide and varied Rare Soul scene in the year 2001.
Most folk will be pleased to see a couple of ex Casino Searling spins, Mr.Souls "What happened to yesterday", and The Imaginations "Strange neighbourhood", or "Maurice McAllister" and "Ray Pollard & The Wanderers" as they were first spun as! Plenty of dancefloor favourites from the 80s and 90s scenes as well, with Eddie Whiteheads "Just your fool", the jazz tipped Karmello Brooks "Tell me baby", Jimmy Seals "Yesterday of our love" (or "The Moving Parts as Keb once named it!) and the striding New York City soul sound of The Diplomats "Cards on the table".
One of todays surprising big spins has to be the C&W flavoured "Ill be all alone" from Barbara Redd. which has proved to be very popular for Alan Handscombe at The Dome in London over the last year or so, and gave birth to a new soul-genre, "Tumbleweed Soul!"
From 72 is the beautifully polished "Yes Im in love" by the Unique Blend which has been an on off spin since the 70s, and if you like that youll probably already in love with the cross-over sound of The Joytones "This love", also included. Kent also treat us to a few previously unissued tracks, the way they do, with The Delfonics, "Youll get enough", Bettye Swanns belting uptempo version of "I think Im falling in love", and finally Audrey Matthews (daughter of Johnnie Mae) version of "I have no choice" ..brilliant discoveries, and what we all love Kent for!
For lovers of the earlier 60s sounds, The Rockmasters "Raining teardrops" (sharing the same backing track as The Sapphires "Who do you love", and championed by Scotlands Keith Money) and Joe Simons skippy and light "I see your face" should satisfy, as should Charlie Richs big beat ballad, "Dont tear me down" and Johnny Wyatts Popcorn favourite, "I wouldnt change a thing about you".
Other tracks include, The Millionaires "And the rains came" (beautiful), Charles Lamonts "Ive got to keep movin" (never really lives up to its strong intro), Claude Hueys "Why would you blow it" (superb), Pat Powdrills "Do it" (too fast, still!), Denita James "I have feelings too" (inferior to its 45 flip, "Wild side"), Lil Bobs version of Billy Blands "My heart is on fire" (highly recommended ex Keb spin), and a couple from the Elf label, Clifford Currys "Aint no danger" (flip to "I cant get a hold of myself") and Dan Folgers "The way of the crowd" (popular cross-over from the last few years), and thats it.......another fine NS CD compilation from Kent that belongs on most soul fans shelves!
