Guest mrs norman maine Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 (edited) My favourite tune that I can't get my shambling legs co-ordinated to is The Hesitations 'Is this the way to treat a girl?' Close runners-up are Melba Moore 'TMT' and Candi Staton 'IHTMTC', both of which have already had honourable mentions on this thread. Oh and the Exits' 'Another Sundown in Watts'. and....finally, Esther.... any version of "Your love's got me". I still have a terrible memory of a game, though poorly executed, attempt to dance to it at Ady's pre-Cleethorpes Yarmouth weekender many moons ago. Never again, though at least it gave Sean Chambers (RIP) one of the biggest laughs of his life. Edited February 9, 2008 by mrs norman maine Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Tony Smith Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 that'll be King Moses. I tend to play air guitar in that part.... If I've bothered to dance at all that is I thought it was Aerosmith Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Chris L Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Maybe been posted up before But I was sat here thinking In all my time of being into Soul & visiting venues over the years What would I put down as the hardest track I ever attempted to dance too even in my yoot For me it was a record I loved to hear played out, just coul"nt choofin dance to it to save me life Pat Powdrill : Do It Just too fast Whats Yours Nothing compares to you - Velvet Satins Chris L (he's a got a velvet satin backside ;-) Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Chris L Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Nothing compares to you - Velvet Satins Chris L (he's a got a velvet satin backside ;-) I'd better give the easiest choon to dance to, otherwise I'll be sending post complaining about the thread being "negative" "Arrest me - Jamo Thomas" this regular beat-nick even gets my lumbering frame a movin'............................................................................ ...

Sanquine Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Towanda B agree can be a hard one - but managed it a few time's... Chandler's can see why listed in this thread - but managed the break by keeping the beat in my head n turning round to it.. Quite a few old stomper's listed that I had endless fun on the dance floor too... seeing who could keep going to the end:D For me I've alway's found "Greater Experience - Don't forget to remember" an odd beat to dance too..

Kev Cane Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Reggie Saddler Combo - Hear My Song - Panther I challenge all who go to Wolverhampton on Sat to prove me wrong! The reason I am replying on Joans quote is because I can remember 20 Years ago talking to Joan about the record I am going use as an example for this thread. It was at the 100 club and I was talking to her about The International Kansas City Playboys version of "Quittin Time" on Wheelsville, what do you know a few moments later it comes on, I am straight up, within 20 seconds I could feel the imaginary "shepherds crook" around my neck dragging me off the floor, "big big mistake".

Steve G Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 that'll be King Moses. I tend to play air guitar in that part.... If I've bothered to dance at all that is But in the carver copy I let Sam keep he has edited down the air guitar. The original is longer and better I know it's too "hard edged" for some to like Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest mel brat Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Off the top of my head; Cindy Scott - "Time Can Change A Love" (very tricky and awkward rhythm I always found) Linda Jones - "You Hit Me Like TNT" (ditto) Ambers - "I Love You Baby" (fabulous full-on production, but the beat just confuses my feet!) Bobby Garrett - "My Little Girl" (way too fast for me nowadays, sadly) Love 'em all nonetheless, particularly the Ambers side, so I'd definitely feel impelled to "have a go" anyway! PS. Brainstorm's - "Lovin' Is Really My Game" (the full length mix) Coroner's verdict: "Suicide by dancing"! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest mel brat Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 ...The International Kansas City Playboys version of "Quittin Time" on Wheelsville, what do you know a few moments later it comes on... Yup, fabulous record. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Csta Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Jackie Wilson - Higher And Higher - got to be the toughest! Could never dance to it and always ended up in knots (although I did get beat up by a couple of Bouncers to it... many years ago!) Great record though. ...and the who who song is even tougher!

Guest JJMMWGDuPree Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Down to the nightclub (Bump City) - Tower of Power. Actually I personally never had a problem with it, it was everyone else. Sometimes it was like only me and my sister were capable of dealing with anything that wasn't strictly 4/4. Or maybe we were just the only ones with copies of the record...

Yeah, I get the old adrenaline rush hearin' 'em too - but I reckon that's what'll do for me in the end, sure 'nuff! Can think of worse ways to go though...
