The Bolton Spitfire Soul Club

Despite it being a very hot day in Lancashire I decided it would be much better to listen to some good soul music rather than swelter at home. So off to the Spitfire Club in Farnworth I went.

Arrived shortly after 2pm, Vance doing the first set as usual, nice mix. He was followed by Lizz McShane, then Jacko and the last guest Mike McShane.

A good selection of styles and tempos: You Don't Need A Heart (Teddy Randazzo); Whoever You Are (California Rock Choir); You Can't Fight Love (Shirley & Jesse); Lonely In A Crowd (Superlatives); They're Trying To Tear Us Apart (Mary Moultrie); All The Way From Heaven (Chancellors); Troubles (Lee Rogers); She Put The Hurt On Me (Trade Martin); Walkin' In The Night (Felix Harris); One More Chance Lord (Delores Fuller); Mr Blue (Cody Black); etc.

Not quite so many in as usual, but it was a good turnout really, what with the weather ideal for barbecues, Llandudno and other weekenders plus holidays. Those present enjoyed it I think, certainly the music was very good.

Thanks to Pete, Vance and the DJs, you did a sterling job, plus thanks the club staff.
