Posted December 28, 200519 yr Don't stop me...I'm on a roll. In my humblest of opinion there are 2 records that over the last couple of years have gained reputations under different banners. Firstly in the RARE category, LOVE SLAVE-THE ANTELLECS and in the HYPED cat. SISTER JAMES-NINO TEMPO. Neither one ever pulls many onto the floor and both are tricky to dance to. Any others?
December 29, 200519 yr I'm glad someone was there way back then, who agrees about the Sharonettes. Some other floorfillers from that period "JOE 90" who the hell played that, I'M ON FIRE by 1000 Volts, Casino one week, charts the following. Yea but Russ never played it as 5000 Volts!!!! He played it as "Black is Black 75 by The Tamiko's" & the Instrumental at that....otherwise Tina Charles could have been a Northern Soul Star.... JB

JB If I remember rightly Tina Charles did have something played, one of her early numbers, a Biddu production.
December 29, 200519 yr If I remember rightly Tina Charles did have something played, one of her early numbers, a Biddu production. Could be "Now Is The Time" same as Jimmy James & The Vagabonds Bigger in Bombay than the North of England.... JB

December 31, 200519 yr Every copy (IMHO ) should be taken, along with Dean Barlow, up two flights, go along to the third window from the right, open it and throw the lot out the f***** I so agree that mine was frisbeed with glee Sh****e
December 31, 200519 yr Worst floor filler ever without question - Frank Wilson - Do I Love You Out and out pop record. Antellects pure class, and not difficult to dance to, even at my advanced years. Martyn At last, someone else who doesn't like Frank Wilson's Do I love you. Sounds like a pop record to me too, think the hype that this record's created is more to do with the venue it was first played at & the era it was played in. Mark I like the music of Jim Reeves & Matt Munro a lot more, honest.

January 3, 200619 yr a minority of two then When I hear that record, I feel like ripping out my own entrails and eating them.................HATE is too soft a word............a minority of three
January 3, 200619 yr I really am all alone in loving Dean Barlow arent I? Although I do agree it's not a tune for the northern scene, but great on the mod scene

January 4, 200619 yr If I remember rightly Tina Charles did have something played, one of her early numbers, a Biddu production. This is correct. I have a vague recollection that John Manship championed something on UK CBS by her but the title evades my failing brain
January 4, 200619 yr Some of the floor fillers at Capitol coming in for some stick here. Antellects and TC and the Bricklayers meant poor old Trickester only had the stage to dance on as the floor was shoulder to shoulder. As for Joey Di Lorenzo (fantastic Northern Soul record, who says they have to have soul?). For creating that buzzing atmosphere of a room full of people all clapping in time to a beat of a great dancing tune. There was none better IMO. As for ones I dont like that fill floors (leaving aside the uber-dreadful Professionals - T.W.I.L.Y) I cant stand 'Crook his little finger', or 'Quicksand', yet whenever I hear them played the whole room seems to disagree with me.
