All the mentioned ones fantastic & i think i agree with the person who picked "Landslide" as the most rousing tongue.gif

One other i liked though was "The Four Perfections - I'm Not Strong Enough", sort of gave you time to comb your hair & straighten your tie before you made for the dance floor :yes:

Guest in town Mikey

I obviously like the understated intro's.

Martells - Where can my baby be and of course

Rufus Lumley - Stronger than me.

Maybe its the base. To me its like the build up in your groin before an orgasm.

Another intro I like but not really a musical one:

Ladies and gentlmen, I know the custom has always been

To introduce a spokesman to you

Before the story begins

So with no further ado, let me introduce myself to you

I'm Doctor Love.

Biggest intro EVER just has to be ...

THE INVITATIONS "SKIING IN THE SNOW" !!!!!!!!!!

Love it or loathe it ( & i still love it, don't care) still a fantastic intro :rolleyes:

If by biggest you mean longest, i think "Eddie Holman's" album version of "This Will Be A Night To Remember" must come close to that accolade.

Del larks. Job opening.

Long enough to put your drink down in midconversation (ie bullshit) and hot foot it for the dance floor.

PS Always thought it the greatest thing bout NS scene was that in the middle of a conversation at a niter if you heard the intro to a record you just HAD to dance to, you could just get say 'gotta dance to this' and head to the floor - and the other person would TOTALLY understand.

Nobody but me Human Beinz

Nothing can compete with this intro surely?

Yup. Rainbows - Help Me If You Can on Capitol - booted as Detroit Shakers - Help Me on Soul Cat.

Even more frantic than the 'Beinz. Feckin' barmy record these days but as a fifteen year old stamping about in the youth club...

Invitations "Look On The Good Side" Great Intro'

Great shout whistling.gif I always think the girls wailing 'Are you ready, to be loved' is a clarion call to the floor for Ernie Lee Banks anthemic groover also.

One intro that always makes me smile is to Inez and Charlie's 'Tightrope'. Was anybody at the Derby Tiffs all-nighter when Colin Curtis was playing his new release stuff to virtually no response - the place was absolutely rammed as well. He then followed the Philly All-Star's 'Clean up the Ghetto' with Tightrope and I've never witnessed such a melee to get to floor - before or since. Great bank holiday doos though them Derby Tiffs doos :unsure:
