If I'm reading it right, you would be there 3 weeks out of every 4?? Tony

You're easily pleased What about R.W. and I.L. djing?? TP

Err. The Snake or Do I fcuking Love You Coat Got Gone Tony

Hijacking the thread regarding linking sounds to venues for a minute, as, historically all the "top" venues were weekly events it makes it that bit easier to name where you first heard something. Anyway the point is this,if somebody had the 'nads to start a weekly event nowadays, with the scene being on a much more "global" scale, would you go???? Answers on the back of a £20 note, if you please. Tony

Oh Yeah Levi Stubbs, one of the most distinctive voices ever. Once saw an interview where he was asked-- Why, as one the most famous voices on Motown, he never went solo???? His answer--It's all about Respect and Friendship. Class. Tony

Bloody Hell. I've bought all mine from him Tony

If funds are limited and you can't live without it, buy a cd, and then buy some cheap ORIGINAL vinyl. There's still 1000's out there yet to have their day. I thank you Tony(Miser)

Fcukin' Awesome--Both sides, Paul-(soul45s on here) had one for sale so he's the man. Over to you mate Tony

Cloud 9 The Temptations Side 1 Norman Whitfield doing what Norman Whitfield does Side 2 Every one a gem What's Going On 'Nuff Said The Show Must Go On Sam Dees All in All Earth, Wind & Fire, Fantasy, Serpentine Fire, well ott Black Bach Lamont Dozier Superfly Curtis Mayfield, what a blaxploitation soundtrack should be. Songs in the Key of Life Stevie Wonder All ones that I keep coming back to. Tony

Hmmmm. Silent handclaps ! Oh no sorry, that's Saudi Tony

OK then I'll give it a spin on Sunday, Down In The Cellar. (Blatent plug or what?) Tony

Coooo you sure? Seems a bit steep. Saw one in not so clever nick for £25, so reckoned about £50-6oish, still WTF do I know Tony

This is an absolute true fact! It used to open a dormant part of my brain -------and had me talking crap ALL NIGHT Tony

Now we's talkin! I gave somebody a flyer for one of our local night's. What's Classic Club Soul?? he asked. Any of the above young Man Cheers Tony

Eeeee Dear,My youth club days must pre-date most of yours, certainly pre decimal, Although there's nowt wrong with any so far mentioned, I'm talking more about the stuff commonly called Disco Soul (Oh Dear) from before we knew or indeed had heard about Northern,stuff like Breakin Down The Walls Of Heartache Eeny Meeny Freedom Train 634-5789 I Got What it Takes(Part 1 & Part 2 and three if we have time) Karate Boogaloo and more Motown than you could shake your stick at I Thank You Tony

Bit dear that for nail varnish remover Tony

No record is too common for this theme. we are talking real yoof club classics here. Shotgun wedding I Can't Turn You loose People Dance To The Music Ride Your Pony and there's more Tony

Picking up from the thread about What If Motown had bombed, well just recently been digging out and buying the more common stuff for a coupla Hand bag nights and re hearing stuff like I spy Mr. pitiful Soothe Me Harlem Shuffle Rescue Me etc etc reminds me how good this stuff was, and why we decided to dig a bit deeper Cheers Tony

Surely not the only one on here to know Carlos(Carl Wong). His Mam and Dad owned a bakery on the corner of West Park St and Phoebe St in Salford, where we used to fill up on warm mini Hovis at penny ha'penny each. Later moved to Cadishead,where me and Rick met up with him again and started going to The Carlton in Warrington ( Now there IS a forgotten Club). Cheers Tony

Ta, any idea on value?? Tony

Carlos, a very nice Half Chinese Lad who was a good mate of mine and Ricky's from when we was Babes in arms in Salford. Had a good record collection, bought a lot from a certain Mr Soussan, had one of the first copies of Paul Anka, labels removed at source so as not to identify it,. Not seen for years, believed to be now living in San Francisco. Next Question Please. Tony

Hi all Just picked up Now that I found You -Penny on Kelton. Think it's been played, but anybody know owt?? Ta Tony

Sorry for slipping the thread a bit. Gangsters and Nightlife is another story entirely. Or is It???? Tony

Deffo, and also a song of course, The Boy's Are Back In Town-Thin Lizzy is an allegedly thinly veiled "trbute" Tony

Could be very interesting. but if you expanded it into a history of the Club Scene in Manchester .which from the early sixties onwards had "nightlife" to rival London, so much so that Krays fancied a bit, but they got sent home by the Quality Street Gang (must be a film in that somewhere). The Clubs and "characters" are legendary, I know it's been tried before, but not in detail. Go for it lad. Tony
