Supercorsa

During the eighties (scooter runs) and in one case more recently, I bought some records on the Sound of Soul (SOS) label. Anyway since then I've wondered how many releases there were on the label, I think there were 10 (not too sure tho'). Anyway the ones I have are as follows: SOS 001 Beverly Ann - He's Comin' Home b/w Dynatones - Fife Piper SOS 002 The Vibrations - Cause Your Mine b/w Count Five - Psychotic Reaction SOS 003 Major Lance - You Don't Want Me No More b/w Matt Parsons Orchestra - Boogaloo Investigator SOS 004 Bobby Paris - I Walked Away b/w Carnaby - Jump And Dance SOS 005 The Majestics - I Love Her So Much (it hurts me) b/w Bobby Paris - Night Owl SOS 006 Dee Dee Sharp - What Kind Of Lady b/w Derek + Ray - Interplay SOS 007 Delcos - Arabia b/w Present - Many's The Slip SOS 008 Greg Perry - It Takes Heart b/w Alfie Davison - Love Is A Serious Business SOS 009 ???????????? SOS 010 Mr Charles - I Don't Need No Doctor b/w N.F. Porter - Keep On Keeping On Does anybody know what was on SOS 009 (if indeed there was a SOS 009)? I have been told by people that it was either, The Chandlers or Lew Kirton, but nothing for certain. This is just one of those things that has bugged me for some years! Also if anybody has a copy, would they sell it? Can anybody help me, please?

I picked up a UK released Stax album from a car boot a few years ago now for a £1. Its called: Stax Northern Disco Sounds (STXB 3002) The tracks on it are as follows: Side 1 At Last by The Temprees Happy by William Bell Wade In The Water by Little Sonny Friday Night by Johnnie Taylor There's Gonna Be A Showdown by Rance Allen Free For All by Mel & Tim Side 2 You Need A Friend Like Mine by Annette Thomas Oh La De Da by The Staple Singers Bet You I Win by Little Milton That's The Story Of My Life by Major Lance Chains Of Love by Jimmy Hughes The Right Track by Jones & Blumberg Medicine Bend by Margie Joseph It dates from 1975 and there's sleevenotes from Ian Dewhirst on it. There's also a mention for the album 'Stax Southern Disco Sounds', which I've never seen. I won't ask the value of my album because firstly I'm not selling it and secondly I wasn't ripped off for a Quid! One last thing has anybody ever been to a Northern Disco?

I was just wondering, what attracts people to a venue/do for the first time? Is it the advertised DJ's? Do the Flyers that you see at every Do work? Is it from actual reviews on sites and in magazines? Or is it just the good old fashioned 'word of mouth'? Like I said, I was just sitting here wondering (might get some tips if ever I put a do on, LOL!).

Thanks for all the suggestions. Now all I've got to do is hide my shopping list from the wife! LOL!

Hello to everybody, don't know why I haven't used this site before. I've been glancing at just a few of the posts on this site and can't help but notice the wide and varied opinions of people on Northern Soul (very interesting). Anyway could anybody recommend any Northern tunes for between £10 -£20? It's just that I've recently started buying records again (even tho' I can't really afford to!) and I'd like to buy a few good tunes, but I'm reluctant to spend money blindly. You know what it's like you go in a record shop with money burning a hole in your pocket, so you ending up buying anything, get it home and wish you'd bought something else. So I'm after some suggestions. I don't care if they are reissues. I'd like to say money's no object, but with a wife and 3 kids I can't. I've only got about 250 - 300 soul singles and I feel like I haven't even scratched the surface yet. Like I said any help and recommendations would be appreciated.
