Did you get either from Iain Stewart? Only ask as I remember him acquiring one around that time. Iain was fantastic at acquiring records, but rubbish at hanging onto them.

Thanks to all for positive comments. Loads of suggestions/ammo for CD. Karen, regret life no longer a bowl of cherries, will PM you over w/end. Thanks again. Col.

I think you may find that its your eye sight thats 20/20

Check out the bags on my home page

Mine would have to be a T shirt with a high content of lycra, sad to say that was only last year.

Thats funny?

I've heard it does for most of Kent.

Now thats a quality tune. Would be in my top 10. Sadly don't know "Billy Eckstine - I wonder why"..........sound file pls

The best northern soul record of all time to dance to is James Fountain - Seven Day Lover After 30 odd years of loving it, still 'sounds' fresh as a daisy (..eh?) Would sound good to me in either the oldies or modern room. You can stomp to it, shuffle to it, whatever..... Soulful vocals, manic beat, acrobatic breaks. There is no better.....unless you know different.

I work with a couple of guys who have consistently either refused or been unable to get their head around rare/northern soul. They have now discovered and are in awe of Amy Winehouse which is a good thing. But still they are unable to relate her music to the tracks I play at work. So, I'm going to do a CD comp for them. I haven't as yet titled it, but it will probably be called either 'The Amy Wineshose Experience' or Wake up & Smell The Coffee' So far I'm up to: Bobby Bland - Aint Nothin' You Can Do Baby Washington - Let Love Go By Etta James - 7 Day Fool Darrel Banks - No One Blinder Care to add.... Cheers Col.

I haven't heard Frank Wilson played out for approx 2 years. So, in my book its not overplayed.

It was me.

Try and get hod of an Inter City Soul Club patch .............you had to be there

By a stroke of pure co-incidence, I find myself currently secretary of the 'Dedicated Soul Club' Pls send me £50 (in used notes) immedietely to validate your membership.....

Great tunes, but I sense a certain bit of indecision here.

Quality reply

Bisley now has a modern room. I can tell you it was kicking in there saturday night. Tim Brown was on top form, superb crossover set - as good as you'll get at Soul Essence or anywhere else. He then went into the main room & played both 'oldies' & 'newies'. In ans to your question - "how many of the people who attend Bisley attend 100 Club?" I'd say less than 5%. Bisley regulars don't do the 100 club & 100 club regulars don't do Bisley. In general. Col.

Does anybody have contact details for Chris Brown - Jazz Funk DJ Pls PM me, I'd be grateful. Col.

78 track players for me & steam powered i-pods.

Yes, its nice when that happens. Although I'm currently trying to get in tune with my grand-children. The Donald McCollum link from Blake is still broken. Can somebody fix pls. Its well worth hearing. Thanks.

Yep, although its not playing, but I can see its Terry McCollum. Best new release of the year for me. Went down well in Aldershot last month & I'm going to give it a spin saturday at Bisley. Perfect. Col. Sean, fair chance I'll see at Soul Essence. Roger, cheers for the pod cast, will give it a whirl.....

You & me both.

Yeah, thats the sort of thing I was looking for. Its good to have a bit of a change now & then

Thanks for that. I've heard the Stormy track loads of time, but never made the connection.
