What L.J. Johnson?? You're kidding aren't you,mate??? Pat Powdrilll gets my vote....

Hello Webby

I'm not saying 'Your Magic' has the fastest tempo (although it's probably 140 BPM +) but that very rapid string line makes it seem even faster.

'Lovin' Is Really My Game' is even faster and again it has a racing string line

But a young lad like you shouldn't have any trouble dancing to "Do It".

:lol:

Thinkin about it, after lookin thru all the great tunes here, it's ONLY the fast ones I like (oldies that is!)!!

Though have to say Kim Weston "Take me in your arms...." is pretty impossible!!

'mind is willing, but flesh is weak' moment coming on!!

This has to be Johnny James - Tell you about my girl (ain't that lovin') on Circle M.

Great Oakland 45 from 1964 and played by Guy from memory at Stafford.

Hawaii 5-0 always had my legs going at 100mph, running off the dance floor when it came on, :wave:.

I used to do front and back somersaults to that when I was 14 right at the drum-roll breaks :rolleyes: Ahhh, what fabulous memories :no:

Gloria-WTF!

Been where there aint access to the WWW, hence delay in responding to this and also other nregative comments.

Soulcarp will back me when I say I have a decent collection of NS 45's BUT Northern is not the only music produced !!!!!!.

Gloria was thrown in to fcuk with a few heads, personally after a big roll up with plenty of green you hear things differently, however if you stick to whizz you'll never expand your musical tastes.

Theres another thread on here regarding parcels.....this week I've had three...2 were LP's The Outlaws first Album (country rock) from 1972 and Into the Purple valley - Rye Cooder, I'm also the guy who got the Billy Prophet single off Ebay for £50 a couple of weeks back after someone pointed out there was copy up for grabs.

KTF but open your ears !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A few more speedy sounds

Tightrope - Inez and Charlie Foxx

Who Who song - Jackie Wilson

A quitter never wins - Larry Williams and Johnny Watson

Case of love - Sequins

All turned on - Bob Wilson

Angel Baby - Darrel Banks

2 That spring to my mind ...

(and don't think they've been mentioned yet ??) ....

Lovettes - Little Miss Soul (Carnival)

Isley Brothers - Why When Love Is Gone (Tamla Motown / Tamla)

The latter blew me away when I first heard it when I was 14 years old and still amazes me today. :hatsoff2:

I wouldn't be surprised if it was the fastest track to come out of the Motown studio's.

Fuc#in awesome !!

Not interested in,nor influenced by,weed or speed.

Laura Brannigan has no place here,whatever you`ve been enjoying.

Your collection is irrelevant to this thread,or are you looking for justification of some sort?

I am sure that a lot of people on hear listen to "other stuff",myself included but its separate from this site-because its not soul,or northern.

Curtis Lee and the Kansas City Playboys-Quitting Time-Wheelsville is a real leg tangler, also deceptively quick is the brilliant Salvadors-Stick By Me Baby.

To be honest nowadays, anything quicker than Ray Pollards "The Drifter" would see me off :thumbsup:
