Top Tips For 2010

[Reg Scott]

Sean,

Are you going to cap this one off and do the final summary?

Only asking cause I want to refresh my wants and I'm too lazy to go through all the posts.

And, like previous years, really good for posterity to have the summary to review at the end of the year!

ATB

Greg.

Last Orders... Maybe this one?????.....Gaylen Adams-Time Is Slipping Away

Last Orders... Maybe this one?????.....Gaylen Adams-Time Is Slipping Away

Once again I prefer the flipside... "Love Meets No Stranger" sounds much better to my ears as far as northern plays goes. Great double-sider in any case and very rare/obscure as well.

I think that Colette Kelly "City of fool" on Volt is long overdue to become a wider known dancefloor favourite. It really has a lot going: great vocals, great lyrics, dance beat, good production, unique appeal overall...etc.

it's in refosoul, don't know how to insert the link

Cheers

Stefan

Nice tune but about 2 minutes toooo long

[manus]

Sorry bit late posting on here

Not sure if this would ever take off but it's an interesting one - a Gospel, Soul,Northen, Funk R and B tune.

Cheers

Excellent listening, couple of great dancers including the aforementioned 'Stay Into My Life ' - recommended!
