Chris Turnbull Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 I used to have a great video of old TV clips (Wigan, Blackburn, Stafford, etc) with some home video footage on the end of Bradford Queens Hall, Ady's Yarmouth Weekender, Allanton, etc, from late 80's / early 90's. Bit of a long shot this, but the Bradford footage had a fantastic female beat ballad that I never knew the name of. Anyone still got the video and can tell me what it is? Somewhere in between George Pepp and Frank Beverly 'Because of my heart' from what I remember, though a few years since I have seen it. The other clips were great too - Ted Taylor 'somebody's always trying' at a kicking Allanton, Hoagy Lands 'next in line' at Yarmouth, etc - surprised no-one has stuck them on Youtube already. Cheers, Chris. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Pete S Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 Chris I compiled that dvd, in fact it was the first NS dvd anyone ever did. The track you are thinking of is Marion Stewart - I Must Be Losing You. 2 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Pete S Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 From what I can remember, all the tv clips were on two discs, they included every documentary or feature up until 2002 plus that BBC play Our On The Floor, the first dvd is 3 hours and the second dvd maybe one and a half hours which I made up to 3 by putting something else on the end, might have been Ray Pollard at Yarmouth or something like that, then there was a 3rd dvd which had nothing but footage of dancers at 100 club, Leicester and so on. I used to sell them as a package 3 for £20. Nowadays I'd do them 3 for £10. 2 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Soul16 Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 I still have that video tape too, I have a (pretty lo-fi) recording of Chuck Jackson and others live at a weekender in 1991, if I remember correctly. I also have some rare footage from the Old Vic in Wolverhampton, that has a good few minutes at the end with the lights on that shows a lot of faces quite clearly - I fully intended to upload it to YouTube, along with some other stuff I have uploaded in the past, but I am concerned that it may upset or cause offence because I am fully aware that certain people featured in it have since passed on.

Chris Turnbull Posted October 13, 2013 Author Share Posted October 13, 2013 Following on from the threads about film footage, anyone know where the footage of dancers on this clip comes from, and is there any more of it? Maybe on Pete S's DVD's somewhere https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFx9XD-RRF4 Also while I'm asking, wasn't there some BBC footage of Wigan c. 1978? Have definitely seen it at some point, quite dark colour film of dancers on the floor at Wigan, though nothing like as busy as on the Granada clips.

There is a topic about this, basically from when the video was first posted. I think it is an omnibus special or some report type program from back then. Sure there is som e more info in the comments on the youtube video. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Pete S Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 I think the dance footage is from a more recent program, maybe from the London tv area, they are contemporary dancers wearing old clothes. I've definitely got the whole thing, I just can't remember. I think Keb was in it. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Have definitely seen it at some point, quite dark colour film of dancers on the floor at Wigan, though nothing like as busy as on the Granada clips. This clip is from an Omnibus shown in 1979 (or 78 without checking). The name of this short film was: "Disco Delights, Or What A Way To End It All" by David Richardson. The main film shown was "The People's Park" a documentary about Central Park, New York and this short was tacked on the end. it was fairly short and focused on "northern discos" and featured heavy rock, "Roxy" and Northern Soul, I watched it at the time and the music that was playing while the clip was on was definitely Afternoon Of The Rhino. Whether this was what they were dancing to in reality I can't say. I think Interplay was the intro music to the whole short film Edit - it was 1978 Edited October 15, 2013 by maslar 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Pete S Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 Did you do the DVDs "Legends of Rare Soul" vols 1 & 2 too? What happened with those was that I put together quite a collection of rare clips, this was before youtube, I did a compilation for a few people and then next thing, they turned up on this compilation Legends Of Rare Soul and I was told not to put them out any more because someone had the copyright, except they were using the clips I'd sourced, with the same gliches, drop out on the tape etc. It's a bit vague now as it was 11 years ago. There was a volume 3 as well. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
