I saw Ian at Soul Essence, he sells records there. Had a good chat with him. He still loves the music but has quite a lot of other interests now. Col.

Let me know what you think of this - Always nice to here what people think - so all comments welcomed good or bad! And it wont change my opinion one bit Its just perfect mid tempo. Perfect.

Its on Midland International & you can pick it up for about £15

Cheers for posting your tracks Biggray Soul Heaven

Thanks Brett, Had thought Greatstone was not going to be. Had it in my head it was mainly RnB Obviously wrong on my part Col.

..........and that from a bloke who requires a minimum of 3 square metres dance space all around him Here's another mid tempo track, that in my opinion ......err rocks! But, Lets hope Shane & Darcy can get their heads around it.

Edited, dunno what went wrong

Cheers for replies Girf & Lindsay. Shane.......I'm shocked, almost speechless! Hopefully, that other 'quality' moderator Dan will cancel out your comments. Col

After being in & out of northern, modern & crossover I currently find its mid-tempo stuff that floats my boat. Sample tune attached. Are there are any clubs playing this, or any individual DJs championing the cause? Or am I stuck in this groove alone? Col

Not an expert here, but I don't think the majority of tunes go for silly money. I put 4 up on e-bay recently & none of them made book price.

Intruders - Win Place Or Shower Is it rude to laugh at your own jokes? or Towel Of Power - This Time Its Real

Hadn't played this for a bit Time to funk up those suds

Thats a nice track But, Bath Time Soul, not complete without Lynn Vernado - Wash and Wear Love!

As a teenager mid 70s I went to a place called the Walton Hop in Surrey. You may recall the name as it was infamously mentioned at the trial of Johnathon King (ex Radio 1 DJ, record producer & paedophile). Fortunately I don't remember him but I know others that do. Anyway thats where I first came across northern soul dancing. One of the other characters at the Walton Hop was a lad called Jimmy Percy. He sort of introduced me to northern soul & then went off & found fame & fortune with Sham 69. Funny old world innit?

Yes please, had a few problems converting AIFF to mp3 last night. Thought I had fixed it, obviously not.

Said before, bt maybe worth mentioning again. "A dancers ability varies in inverse proportion to the size of his record collection"

Mickey Mouse concerto gets my vote.

Its defo by a well known black artist & that artist is still around today. Lets see if Moldie will give us a bit of a clue tonight.........

Think that was all banned circa 1984

I'm shocked that you haven't got it. Sit so well with all that over stuff in your box

Alas no Andy. I'm advised its covered up which I find difficult to believe. The singers voice is almost recognisable, but not quite!

Someone with a sense of humour

Nice bit of '70s? What do you think of this? Col.

Steve, this is not going to be any fun unless you go back to being argumentative. Col

Yes the floor is full at oldies nights with dazed & confused people, unfortunately most of them are looking for the cloak-room.
