    RIP Billy. Bring The Family Back still sounds as good today as it did the first time I heard it.
  2. Low in value, high in quality. My fave Stephanie Mills track. Personally I always play the 12"
  3. The O'Jays is also on A Cellar Full of Soul CD compiled by Richard Searling https://www.amazon.co.uk/Cellar-Full-Soul-Various/dp/B0000247SA

    Dobie Gray? Destiny, Charger, Inferno, Goldmine 7s, Outta Sight, others?
  5. Has it ever been released on a CD?
  6. Not odd really since it featured in an Adidas advert a few years ago with David Beckham in it.

    Rose Batiste "Hit and Run". The best record Motown never made
  8. That is hilarious
  9. Surely there is such a thing as northern soul artists. Eddie Holman, JJ Barnes and Lorraine Chandler for example?
  10. Alexander O'Neal surely.

    So was I. I can only remember bits of it. It was my stag weekend.

    Thanks Gene. Very sad to hear this. Really nice guy. RIP Toby.

    Is this Winston's mate, who used to go to The Dome, Scenesville, These Old Shoes and other London dos over 10 years ago?
  14. I think you’re about 10-15 years too late in posting that. There’s plenty of house DJ’s dj’ing from a USB stick that present new music and are creative. The format is irrelevant to that surely. In my opinion, it’s more difficult to become a very good DJ than it is to build arecord collection. Sure, you can pick up the basics quickly, but not become somebody who people enjoy listening to time after time. There’s plenty of people with good record collections on the northern soul scene that are quite boring DJ’s.
  15. Which Valarie Simpson track was it?

    RIP Maurice. The brains and driving force behind one the greatest soul bands of all time. Excellent live performers too. I saw them at Wembley Arena in 1988. I can't seem to be able to embed the you tube clip but below is a link to "That's The Way Of The World" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vIIZydXDqg

    It must be the same Chris Brown. Excellent DJ
  18. After all that typing, you've added it to the wrong thread Russ
  19. I read in the Look In Your Box forum that Mario Biondi has had plays out recently at a northern do. FFS!
  20. What about that Bob Sinclar rubbish? It's always been a broad church, with the occasional novelty record making it. As the years go by and music gets more diverse, I guess it's inevitable that the boundaries get stretched. I'm all for it providing the records are of a high quality. Unfortunately, some of the popular tunes are not.
  21. No the press with the big hole credits LesMcCann on the flip Value is £5?
  22. Excellent. Thanks Dave. Bretby was the first allnighter I started going to north of London. I was still in my 20s at the time. I thought I wouldn't know a record and it would be all obscure independent releases. On my first visit there, I was pleasantly surprised to hear Ann Nesby, Mary J. Blige, Blackstreet, Incognito, Maxwell, Maze amongst a load of stuff I wasn't familiar with.
  23. Mine are in the garage and not difficult to get at. I'll try to take a look over the weekend. It may have got a mention but I don't recall any fanfare.
  24. Really? I was buying loads of LPs at the time and thought I had my finger on the pulse but don't recall this at all. I was buying Willie Clayton, Miles Jaye, By All Means, Regina Belle, David Peaston, Will Downing, Adeva, Alyson Williams, Tashan, Betty Wright, Chanelle, Maze, etc. There was loads of fantastic new releases to concentrate on. Mind you, I wasn't going out to dos. Being a young lad in Kent, there wasn't anything going on about from live shows in London.
  25. I had no idea. I haven't seen Paul for a while. What a wonderful thing to do. All the best to Paul!
