You've 10 records to choose as your Desert Island Discs. What would they be?

To start here's mine:

Archie Bell & The Drells - Here I Go Again

The Beginning Of The End - Funky Nassau

My first real influences and still love them both today.

Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell - Two Can Have A Party

So many great Motown tracks to choose, this wins the vote

Lou Pride - I'm Commin' Home In The Morning

The record I'll always remember Wigan by. Am a crap dancer myself but loved to see the experts perform to this one.

Jimmy Radcliffe - Long After Tonight Is All Over

Stunning record, again recalls great times.

Velvet Satins - Nothing Can Compare To You

Uplifting, makes me feel good every time I hear It.

Clydie King - Missin' My Baby

Mid tempo magnificence

Karmello Brooks - Tell Me Baby

Perfection

Big Don's Rebellion - It Was True

Sends shivers down the spine
