You know the weren't

But you wished they were

You know the chart tracks that are sooooo soulful and each time they played some one always danced "Northern"?

Swing Out Sister - Breakout

Big Sound Authority - This House is Where Your Love Stands

George Benson - Love X Love

ABC - When Smokey Sings

Herbie Hancock - I Thought It Was You

Listen to that on a large system

P

Sugar Man - Jesus Rodreguez. Anyone know this haunting tune?

Also anything by the Blow Monkeys...saw them '87, best live performance I ever saw.

God, I used to love this...for a few minutes there I was 17 again...great dance beat. Think this was in the charts the same time as "Float On" and Gladys' "Baby Dont Change Your Mind".

Oh the memories...serious flashback time, platforms and "Farrah" hairdo included.

About 25 years ago I used to have an excellent 45 on Pye by Guy Fletcher called "Keep On Loving Me". It was a yellow demo and dates (according to the stamp) from May 1968. It is a brilliant UK uptempo pop-stomper with overtones of "Baby Now That I've Found You". I have NEVER seen another copy - UK collectors (and Pete, take note!), keep a look out for this!

From what I can recall, Guy Fletcher was a song-writing partner with Doug Flett, and I think they wrote a fair bit of material for Cliff Richard which were submitted as potential Eurovision entries that year, but were rejected. However, their composition "Power To All Our Friends" did make the 1973 Eurovision for Cliff.

Also, on the subject of Eurovision, what about "Love Games" by Belle & The Devotions?

I realise this is an old post Gene but just to say I just got a buy it now minter off Ebay for £15
