Records Ready For A Second Go On The Scene
Can't decide which is the best side, so play 'em both at Heywood. Got mine very cheap, but it must still only be £20 or so. ATB Tony

Northern Soul History?
Back in about 75 ish I had an lp of 12 tracks or so, that I bought from a dealer who would make them up from the tunes on his list.

Mini Allnighter?
I know that the new trend is to end allnighters at 7 or 6 o'clock rather than the traditional 8.00 a.m., and that half nighters go on till about 4 ish, but I 've just seen a night advertised as a Mini -Allnighter 8 till 2.00 Now that I don't get to as many allnighters as I would like, I am happy to say that I am a Hardcore Mini Nighter goer Tony

Before Northern Soul Was Invented
yeah all of the above (except for the Blues Tunes) are all examples of what I call youth club music, the stuff that first got us interested. Little Piece Of Leather I'm gonna run away from you At the Top of the Stairs I got what it takes Karate Boogaloo Funky Street You're Ready now Love, Love ,Love and more Motown than you could shake a party seven at. what seemed to happen round our way was that the lads who's big brother or sister went to The Wheel brought the tunes to the club to show off ATB Tony

Billy Sha Rae
Crikey. I knew there was much info around about him. But, there obviously less than I thought Tony

Billy Sha Rae
That was slightly tongue in cheek Tony

Billy Sha Rae
Obviously had some connection to Jack Ashford when you see some of the stuff he did , covers of I'm gone, Crying Clown --Do It, the almost instrumental of September Jones. So just wondering if anyone has any info?? Was he Jacks Demo Singer?? Eddie Parker avoiding the Tax Man or What? Thanks Tony

Who's Your Best Mate On The Uk Soul Scene?
Ricky Warburton from Salford. Why? Known him nearly all my life. both got into Soul at the youth Clubs. both went to the Pendulum together( He went to The Torch, my dad wouldn't let me play out all night) Blue Rooms, Carlton, Mecca, then onto Wigan, then marriage( not together ) lost touch for about 12 years, found out roughly where he lived, went for a wander to see if I could suss it out, there he was sat in his front garden, first words to me after all that time???? "Hiya Tone. Wanna Brew?" Also has a very nice collection Tony

Do You Only Play Expensive Hot Records
Just a thought, is it not more a case of re evaluating stuff that seems to have found it's day?? For example- Al Downing -I'm Just Nobody, which I bought for next to nowt last year, played by Mr Searling on't radio as one of the most sought after at the moment.(It is OK though) Tony

Do Soul Jocks Make Enough Money?
Most people semm to agree that the bigger "names" deserve a higher fee. But, what difference does having the "big names" make to the turnout??? If you're getting a regular 100 or so in, would having one of these bring in another 50 or more? Whaddya reckon?? Tony

Whips - Whip It On Me - Mgm
T'other side-First Dance Fear- is actually better-not great, but better. It's OK for a Fiver or so. Tony

Monday Sounds - Van Mccoy Day
It's on Sussex, should be around £20 or so- well worth getting and playing out ATB Tony

No Smoking.... Problems Problems
Maybe so,but then your stuck with what to do with all these ex smokers living longer, where's the money gonna come from to keep us in our dotage?? Government should give all us "lepers" gold clocks-we pay tax on everything,all our NI contributions and then when it's time for us to collect-----we're DEAD! What about all the money the NHS spends on alcohol related ilnesses etc. I don't know anybody who smoked all night then went and attacked a nurse. When was the last time somebody who'd been smoking all night, got behind the wheel of a car and wiped someones family out?????? All things in moderation, it aint beyond the wit of man to have designated areas with proper climate controls for us to enjoy the odd Stick of Death. Tony
