Maark Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Yis Baz, although it wasn't as exotic as the Algarve. In Burger King, just off the M1 near Nottingham. We were on our way, with 1,000's of other Cobblers fans, to stuff Hull City and had stopped for brekky and the tunes were bangin out of BK but KTF next door was strangely silent.........Want to go to a soul do there and then but would have missed famous Cobblers victory.... Also heard a top tune while shopping in Wal-Mart in Albuquerque last Oct. Can't remember what it was....too much beer at the weekend! Don't suppose you got drunk eh? You and the Rushden soul rabble?

FrankM Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 (edited) "and the tunes were bangin out of BK but KTF next door was strangely silent........" Deliberate or Freudian slip. KFC for soul music surely? Edited April 19, 2005 by FrankM Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Markw Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 Old Orleans restaurant in the UCI complex on Cardiff Bay. Quite often eat there before/after going to the flicks. They're always playing soul of some description. Recent notable plays include Rufus Lumley - I'm Standing and, rather gobsmackingly, a few weeks ago Mel & Tim - Forever and a Day. Asked the duty manager where their music comes from and he said it's all sent via hard drive from head office. Where the hell did they get Mel & Tim from?

Came wandering in one Friday night and I saw a couple of scoters outside, went closer, and heard Dobie Grey - "out on the floor". With that, went acoss the road, got the pegs out form the backpack, and off I went - Northern Soul night in Sydney !! WOW. It was the first night, run by a Aussie gizza called George. I know Aus has a good Northern sence now, but this was way before all the nighters kicked off, and was mainly supported by Mods....what a night.

Guest Rich Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 yeah he always gives some good soul a spin even when he does house/dance spots in the big clubs he's know to throw in some 70's stuff link Unsurprising really - he appeared to be held in greater reverance down south than dickie searling is up north. Further Norms Giant 45 sessions I used to listen to whilst driving south on BBC London on a Sunday night wiped the floor with the ad-filled Sunday sessions on Jazz FM the mother-in-law used to send me (god bless her). Quote, "Sorry, I'm not taping that early hour nonsense anymore because I often used to feel like throwing myself down a pit-shaft". I though Norm was almost god-like at a Notting Hill 2 or 3 years ago Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
