Just sorting a few records and came across the (in)famous "Footsee" on Pye Disco Demand and wondered if any of the people pictured on the sleeve are Soul Source members, or can you put a name to a face.

Only one I think I know is Steve Caesar (the black guy!) correct me if I'm wrong.

Guy to the left just above steve ceaser looks like BARRY JAMES? :thumbup:

I really hope this thread gets to name as many folk on that photo as possible....be nice to put names to 'em...I suppose at the time...it was just another photo of early Casino...but it's influence was more ground breaking IMO because it made folk like me curious about this Northern soul scene back then...:thumbup: ....Delxxx

Don't think that is ceaser. This is Ceaser, with Peter Ayre just behind Stuart Cosgrove's shoulder, then myself and ? and Pat, not 100% about the date, maybe around 77/78 at Wigan

Loads of the Burnley crew on this photo.

Brian B(Barker) Cathy Broxup (now Mrs cool.gif Paul Bailey, Alan Hughes (Fuse) Lesley Berry, Maggie Hartley, Chris and Ian Magnall, Kim (forgot her last name), Brian Heywood is on there somewhere, and 2 girls from Dudley that spent time with us every week, Rachel and ?.

There are others, but I haven't got my reading glasses at work! I'll list them tonight.

Those really were the days!

It's a long time ago so the memory's a bit fuzzy but I'm sure the little guy in the light coloured vest and white trousers looking like he's riding an invisible horse is Tich Farlowe from Newton Aycliffe. Great lad around a lot in the 70's

Hi Lorraine

The guy (?) between yourself and Pat is simon Andrews. Originally from Leeds, he moved to London in the late 70`s.

I think that it was taken on the first anniversary. the reason being is that the girl in the centre of the photo is Cath from ormskirk and the guy with curly hair at the far right looking right is Keith Dickinson her boyfriend. Unless I'm very much mistaken, they only went once to Wigan, although they were Mecca regulars for a while. Keith lived at the Greyhound Pub in Ormskirk.

Rachael and lorraine .

Thanks for that.

I can't believe I forgot, cos I was actually going with Lorraine for a couple of weeks. I am sure she has a couple of sounds I lent her (or did she lend them to me?)

They were great lasses, and attached themselves to the Burnley crowd for some reason.

Thanks again,

Brian B

Yes it's definitely Tich - I seem to recall he took a bit of ribbing about it. Aycliffe was a bit of a Soul fortress in those days with everyone and their dog into the music.A great Soul history for a small Durham town.

All the best

And we call him Footsee Farlow because of this

Aycliffe still is fulll of NS fans and has many regular soul nights. The Big Club each month is very popular inthe North East. I can 'back home' to it when I can

Is this photo now like the Kennedy election? There are more names than people on the photo!

It definitely wasn't the 1st anniversary, because I'm on the photo, spookily enough with my wife, who I had not met at the time, and I missed the 1st anniversary due to a 21st do in Blackpool with my mates from Burnley.

I then missed the Wigan coach 'cos we had a not so friendly chat with some footy fans at the back of the car park.

Laney will remember which team it was on that occasion, as it was weekly event with the Burnley Crew.

Your quite right it ain't from the first anniversary. It's early 1974 Feb. i think and i'm 99% certain i am standing just to the left above the coloured guy. Orange singlet with patch and black parry's. Have kept the sleeve of footsee for the memories but oh no i would'nt play the record now, well not unless someone said go-on then. I think it is Steve Caesar standing in front of me. Happy, happy day's indeed. Spread the faith.

Tony, Western Australia.
