Chalky Posted December 28, 2013 Author Share Posted December 28, 2013 The Stafford Story continues with a nod to 100 club and 6t's co founder Ady Croasdell. He did play a big part in the mid 80's soul scene with the many unissued gems that not only did Ady play but they went to Keb and Guy as well. Here is a podcast made up partly by what I have on a recording of Ady at the TOTW and other tracks he was featuring in his sets back then. https://www.soulunderground.co.uk/StaffordTOTW/files/07d52bb5a9ba90b952a8a518ffa8d352-46.html Tommy Hunt - Pretty Part Of You - Unissued Sammy Ambrose - Welcome To Dreamsville - Unissued Marvelows - Your Little Sister - ABC Paramount Bunny Sigler - For Crying Out Loud - Decca Moments - Baby Baby Need You - Hog Hector Rivera - I Want A Chance For Romance - Barry Melba Moore - Magic Touch - Unissued Peggy Woods - Love Is Gonna Get You - Unissued Maxine Brown - I Want A Guarantee - Unissued Alt Vocal Trends - Not too Old To Cry - ABC Paramount Tommy Hunt - New Neighbourhood - Unissued Wally Cox - This Man Wants You - Mono Take Chuck Flamingo & The Kansas City Playboys - Whats My Chances - Rojac Chuck Jackson - Little By Little Maxine Brown - It’s Torture - Unissed Little Tommy Baby Can't You See -Sound Of Soul Drapers - Your Love Has Gone Away - Gee Tony Mason - Take Good Care - RCA Rubies - Spanish Boy - VJ Harvey Averne Dozen - Never Learned To Dance - Uptite Two People - Stop Leave My Heart Alone - Revue Steinways - You’ve Been Leading Me On - Oliver Roosevelt Grier - Pizza Pie Man - D-Town The Megatrons Detroit Sound Laurie Boston Hitesmen - Let It Ride - MTA Johnny Maestro - Stepping Out Of The Picture - Scepter 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Chalky Posted April 6, 2014 Author Share Posted April 6, 2014 32 years ago this month (April 1982) The Stafford all-nighters under the banner of the Top Dog Soul Club opened it’s doors. We celebrate that fact with the 50th podcast in the series that tells that story of the all-nighter through the music. I started these podcasts in 2011 and never for one minute thought I would be hear 50 podcasts later, I originally thought 10, maybe 15 but once I had started I couldn’t stop as I just got more and more information the more I delved into this period of history on the UK Northern Soul Scene. There has been some great, fantastic music, there has like any period in history of the scene some poor ones too but that just makes all the more interesting and it is part of the history. I hope like me you have enjoyed this story so far. Stick with it though as there are still more to come. We celebrate the 50th podcast fittingly with none other than it’s driving force behind the night Dave Thorley. A great selection of across the board tracks. The odd carry over from Yate and Wigan amongst them, and the odd track or two that might be best forgotten some might say. But none the less an interesting and enjoyable selection. P.W. Cannon - The Beating Of My Lonely Heart - Hickory The Star Treks - Gonna Need Magic - Veep The “Q” - That’s The Way - Hound (Richard’s James Lewis & Case Of Time cover up late Wigan, massive at Stafford for Dave) Del-Larks - Job Opening (Part 2) - Queen City Willie & Mighty Magnificent's - Check It Baby - All Platinum (Willie Kendricks) The Nite-Liters - Cherish Every Precious Moment - RCA Three Shades Of Soul - Being In Love - Enjoy James Conwell - Another Sundown In Watts - Guiness Ty Karim - Lighten Up - Romark Hattie Winston - When This Battle Is Over - Unissued Studio Acetate Mel Williams - Sweet Girl Of Mine - Buddah The California Playboys - Trying To Become A Millionaire - Loadstone Ivan Neville - Dance Your Blues Away - Cookie Four Sonics - If It Wasn’t For My Baby - JMC Willie & Mighty Magnificent's - Soulin’ - All Platinum Steve Mallory - Wanted For Love - Garrett Little Henry Lee - Better Use Your Head - Gismo Ral Donner - Mr Misery - Studio Acetate Jimmy Raye - Philly Dog Around The World - KKC Del Reys - Mama Was Right - New Breed The Embers - Where Did I Go Wrong - Atlantic The Servicemen - Are You Angry - Wind Hit SouL Communicators - Those Lonely Nights - Fee Bee The M&M & The Peanuts - The Phillie - Money (Del-Larks) https://www.soulunderground.co.uk/StaffordTOTW/files/a4538a8a8b7765801b0c824a48de28d9-50.html 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Dave Thorley Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Actually, it the copy that Gary played was the soulmates 'sock-in-soul' on double soul, because myself and tim ash found it on one of our US trips.Funny enough I've just found a copy on Double Soul of The Soulmates. seems they tried to get as much bang for their buck on every track they recorded 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
