Always stopped off at Sandbach on the way home from the Cassie Club. Guess what as soon as went back onto the M6 south we got pulled over by the Cheshire Police. Strip searched & had the seats of the car taken apart every week. On the plus side we all eventually got invited to their annual Christmas Party :-)) Keep the Faith & Keep On Keeping On. Tiv.

I remember buying Gene Latter's "sign on the dotted line" from the Bell Street shop & buying some records at ADC before buying direct from "Record Corner" in London. Still have an "ADC" record bag in my collection!!! I know the Cloud Nine set up had some quality British soul singles. Can't remember which way round they were but one collected doubles - demo & issue copy of each record. Did he live in Dawley? When Cloud Nine broke up there was a sale of records at an house in Donnington. Dottie Cambridge "Cry your eyes out" went from there. I don't remember a connection with Paul Cowdrey's "Solid Gold" set up. Paul ran Peartree Promotions entertainments agency from Shrewsbury; From which most of the main Shropshire DJ's at the time gained bookings. I think Pete Smith was the exception to this. Anybody remember two soul girls from Wellington circa 70/74 - Kathy & Lorraine?? Tiv, "Keep the faith & keep on keeping on"

Yep that's where i broke my arm!!

Is this the same one that I remember being in a side street, Bell Street I think? Tiv, Keep the Faith and Keep On Keeping On.

Hi Ade, I still have a lot of these flyers; Billed as "The greatest little soul club in the land". Remember someone spilling beer on the dance floor at Dawley, & me going for a piss-baller. Nursed a broken arm for weeks afterwards!!! Tiv. Keep the faith & keep on keeping on.

Hi, It was the late great Tony Petherbridge who ran the Whitchurch dayers, as part of his Northern Soul Club. If i remember his was the first club to use the terminology "Northern Soul" as a club. Still have my membership & badge along with the legendary '74 alldayer badge. Prior to that he ran soul nights at the Beefeater - later the Raven - at Prees Heath just outside whitchurch. Sadly missed. KTF & Keep On Keeping On, Tiv

Saddened to hear about the loss of dear Levi. The golden voice of my generation. Made even more sombre after Just returning from Detroit where I had the privilage of paying homage at the gravesides of many of the lost Motown stars including bandmates Lawrence Payton & Obi Benson.
