Didn't work for me either. Anyone think that Billy is just after the 1000 posts award? Paul

Yeh Jethro was also on it for certain.

If you have a look at for sale/wants section, the thread "Northern soul DVDs" in Dvd No. 3 Pete Smith has it for sale, it was called "Out On The Floor" I think that was the one. Paul

"Kipper" Rimmer from Newton Le Willows and Anne Rogers from Standish/Shevington, were difinitely in it. There were some "auditions on one of the weekday sessions at the Casino, I think it was on a Wednesday night. Little did anyone know what an attrocity it would become. After Tony Blackburn on TOTP introduced them "performing a new dance called the Footsee" many of the dancers stayed away from the allnighters.

Andre Crouch & the Disciples "Christian People" was an early Wigan spin I seem to remember. Paul

Didn't it jump anyway?

I thought it sounded a bit different, Somewhere I have a Barbara Lewis album with it on(also "someday we're gonna love again"), havn't played it for years. Didn't someone mention the Capitols version on here a few weeks ago? Also it was good to see the Teen Turbans on After Hours 3. Not the most soulful sound but a good happy singalonga dex type track!

In the last series, in one episode it was northern instrumentals. They played Sliced Tomatoes, Bok To Bach and the Spy. Last night they also played Barbara Lewis "Hello Stranger" Linda Jones(I think) "Hypnotised" and I was racking my brains at the instrumental they played, which I hadn't heard for years and I'm sure it was "Trampoline" Spencer Daivis Group.

Always loved the Brown Bombers track from when it was played by the Soul Spinners 4, local djs at Burscough Football Club in about 73. Also the Hamond Bros & Maggie was billed as Soul Over Easy. I know it came out on UK london in about 74/75. was it on USLe Cam, same as the Edie Robin vocal "There Must Be A Love Somewhere". By the way, was this a legit release? Paul

This is where I have a distinct advantage over you lot, I have a copy in a nice shade of light blue

In 1970, At the grand old age of 12 I sneeked out of Boys Brigade to go to the disco down the road. The first record I remember dancing to was "Third Finger Left Hand" Martha Reeves

"Yourself in a corner"!

Nightwatch is worse that I remembered. When I was Djing in Plymouth in about 79 a mate had payed loads of money for it at Yate & I refused to play it for him. I stuck to my reissues and boots of far better sounds. Could be another thread playing reissues & boots rather than nightwatch! err, perhaps we shouldn't go there Paul

Manys the Slip was definately a Levine Play. At first when he brought it back from the states he was claiming it was the vocal to Bok To Back

That was one when played at Wigan that I hated as much as Gay Lewis & the Playboys. For some strange reason though I didn't mind Tommy Sands "The Statue". I wonder if it was because Statue is just a dance tune and the others are Love songs with a dance beat

Didn't they do a version of "My Sugar Baby" Paul

Also, wasn't he lead singer with the High Keyes of "Livin' a lie" fame

Sorry I was a bit slow with a reply there Paul

Wakefield sun "trypt on love" or some such thing. Talking of crap, wasn't the nightwatch "lips to your heart" a Yate sound? I only went once and wasn't particularly impressed. Paul

When we find the winner with the best suggestion can we sing "Freeze a Jolly Good Fellow"

I don't know why because I was always led to believe that ALL sounds were discovered by Russ Winstanleys uncle.

Dean Parish Determniation possibly. Reminds me of Mr Ms

Next we'll be playing Elvis Parsley.

If presley has a place in the "modern" soul scene then I don't think I'll bother. I have heard all the crap abouth the sounds played now are more soulful than in the Wigan era. I think there is such a lot of selective "right on soulfulness" that it can make a mockerey of enjoyment of a scene that consists of a love of predominantly soulful dance sounds. Paul
