Pete S Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 I've never met Graham to the best of my knowledge, and I'm sure that he's a great bloke and all that, but I know for a fact that there are at least three records on there that I took up to the Mecca for their first Northern plays, well before they broke elsewhere, so I tend to agree with you, Julian... Was going to say, don't show that list to Mick Smith as he'll say a good third of those records were discovered by him and his southern pals Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest denmac Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Yep, you're right. Graham was one of the (very) few people who actually made the trip to the U.S. back then. He told me a few great stories about his finds and I told him he should write a book! I'm certain that Julian and Brian '45' had their own U.S. based connections, which, in many cases, were from the same souce, so not surprising that the same records were turning up at the same time. Also I can remember the London contingent - Tony, Clarky, Ady, Dave Rivers etc would always be turning up with goodies from their own sources too, so it really was a magical period. Happy days mate, where every week would bring a whole raft of truly great records. We were very lucky and blessed to be there at the time. Hopefully I'll see you @ the gig and maybe get a carful of us over! Best, Ian D Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Mr Soul Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 i remember the cats at that particular time was the dogs nads,saturday night was not to be missed.ti was johnny morris who got me into soul,mossa as he was called then, was a cats regular he and his mate jackie roe were addicts of the place.mossa lived just up the road from me,he was a couple of years older.i'd knew him years through playing football as woodcross celtic was our team.we occasionally met in the local pubs,and he would tell me about this place ,in wolverhampton that played soul stuff that you would not believe.he had quite a collection of british and the imports of the day,in fact for a time he did a mobile disco with his mate clank.so we'd chat he'd lend me a few records through the week to cut my teeth on.stuff like joy lovejoy,shepphard sisters,little sonny,bobby hebb,chales wright,loads more ,i can't remember.so he kept on you need to get to the cats,so i did ,i suprised them both by turning up getting a membership.walking in was just unbeleivable,the sounds that were playing were out of this world.every record that came on i wanted it.what do you think? they said ,that was it hooked.needless to say i soon madethis a regular haunt.from that first time the d.js at that time were alan s the late bob crocker carl dean.then blue max pep graham warr to be honest,i only went a coupletimes when alan s was at the helm.so i can recall the tunes of the day,when we could'nt wait to peer through the little hatch to see what was next with a line up of max,pep,graham,and sometimes steve glover who had one hell of a british collection.max would come on do a warm up playing tunes like ,fabulous emotions,fidels,wombat,thelma lindsey,mongo santamaria,johnny newbag.then graham with some awesome stuff many listed but i also recall cliff nobles gettin away on phil la of soul,a version of teddy and the fingerpoppers later outing on arctic,lawrence/arabians coincidence,the tripps,tempos,exus trek,then pep with donald lee richardson,soulville allstars,brice coefield,nolan chance.graham warr certainly should get the credit he deserves,as i recall quite a real un- assuming kind of guy.i myself bought stuff from his oasis shop.always had a bargain top man woody Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Dont tell Jackie, i dont want to be victim of Chesty Morgan's alto ego You have just created a flashback to Saturday's on the market....... Always raining dressed in Anoraks talking bollocks and Northern in the rain. Good job you brought along Dennis and Keith to keep some sensibility and order....LOL.... Rochester NY will always be with me at Chucks place. As i was going through a Radio station find on the top floor, a Porn flick was being filmed on the floor below, and i could hear everything....... EVERYTHING....as a gang bang got under way. Try not to laugh when you picture me picking up another pile of 45's and you can hear moans, groans and gents uttering, well, crude terms of encouragement to the young lady they were entertaining, which i would describe them as well.... .... and the next record up is Donnie Burkes "Satisfaction Guarenteed". Nice demo though, brilliant finish, a bit like what was going off downstairs...still should have known what to expect...... first record i fell over on stairs going up was a copy of Subway Riders "After the Session " which coincidently also had a HUGE crack in it.......enough to start Denis off......

Chris L Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 (edited) Hi Julian, Graham is definitely saying he discovered everything on the list on trips to USA from 1970 to 1973,except for Soul Twins which he found first copy in Hammersmith and then 100's of copies (many scratched) later in Miami. I will pass any queries on to him and am sure he will come on Soul Source with response. I was talking to him last week and he said he found 3 copies of Sam & Kitty and nobody liked it. Neil Graham Warr did NOT discover the Soul Twins, I did !!! In summer 1972, I called Ian Levine, played him over the telephone and brought down the Torch, there he played it for the first time. The following weeks both Tony Jebb & Keith Minshul tried to buy off me. I pulled it out of Record Corners basement. This is well documented, listen to the Richard Searling shows August 1999 or ask Ian Levine. I didn't set the Northern Soul world on fire but did bring a few unknowns up from London in 1972/73.

As I said in another thread, Record Corner's lists was a must in the early 70's and they were always first onto any new release which had a Northern feel and the list is endless. Wish I'd have been in that basement back then - must have been brilliant. Bloody hell. You still have an afterglow. Blimey the drugs must have been good or was it just the buzz of Stoke?

codehound Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 (edited) I have spoke to Richard Searling on many an occasion and also listened to many interviews and Manchester radio shows and seen him live of course and he always enthuses about the importance of Dena Barnes and how it was one the most influential records of his NS career. I am far from doubting anyone's testimony, but I wonder if more than 1 copy was discovered at the same time on the same trip, and RS ended up with one too (?) Bought or gifted ? Same record sold between DJs ? Be interesting to know if there was a little backstory to this great track in this respect.
