It's past its best imo. Not enough good music that I haven't heard before to keep me enthusiastic about it.

Hidden bonus track on the NW Weekender CD too, eh Sean!

With respect, this "correct" mix is a load of old bollocks. The CD version on Don't Look Back is fantastic and is always the version I've heard out. It's available for a tenner and the rest of the CD is great too. That's all you need.

It wasn't that great. But PA's to backing tracks never are.

I saw Sam sing LFYB and Fragile, Handle with Care at King's Hall Stoke about 8 years ago.

Shit! So mine's a boot after all.....

Well, it's the much better side I suppose. Wish I bought more in the mid 80s now. I must dig out from the division 2 box.

I got mine free when I bought some other stuff from a fella in Southend over 20 years ago. How much is it worth these days?

A few of my faves are: Chapter 8 - Stronger Love Perri - I'm The One Mini Curry - 100% Body - Middle of the Night Amy Keys - Someone's Gonna Fall In Love Steven Dante - Love Follows Willie Clayton - Your Sweetness

I don't know it Martin. Any chance you could put it up please?

Personally, I think "You're Lying" still sounds great - love the intro. Most of the stuff, particularly his solo records, are pop.

I think BW is kinda an acquired taste. I never used to like him. The first song of his I heard was Harry Hippy and I thought it was rubbish (still do!). However, I've really grown to appreciate his talents and the sheer volume of great songs he's given us. One of the all time greats for sure. One that hasn't been mentioned yet is "Cant'cha Hear The Children Calling" on MCA. Haven't got a clip to put up unfortunately.

Simon, why not just put the tracklisting up on the forum mate?

There's lots of good Salsoul CDs. In fact, there's been a recent series released by a UK label (forgotton the name - sorry) and compiled by Ian Dewhirst. Salsoul: the Best of Salsoul Records is a good start and only costs £5 at the most.

As Stuart said, familiar songs are good to get people interested. When I first got into the music I liked hearing the originals of "Tainted Love", "He Was Really Saying Something" and "Move On Up". I suppose these days it would be originals of songs that have been sampled recently.

Yep, it has sleevenotes, pictures, etc.

If it had a good modern room, then it might be a goer.

Quite right. "You're A Part Of Me" LP from 1988 is also excellent.

Quite right - beautiful song. I wouldn't say it's too slow for the dancefloor at all.

I've got quite a few Philly white demo doubles. If anyone fancies a swap, please send me a pm.

"No More Tear Stained Make Up". Not a dancer but one of their finest moments imo. Beautiful lyrics from Smokey Robinson.

Pleased to hear it.

Great record. I used to love this.

Stewart Ames - Oh Angelina

Al Wilson - Fifty Fifty Five Special - Every Now and Then Luther - Follow My Love Aretha Franklin - It Only Happens (When I Look At You) Strutt - Said You Didn't Love Him Younghearts - You're Not Here With Me
