  1. Just like to ask what the track was after Magic Garden, didn't hear who it was singing it, does anyone know please?
  2. Great show with some tunes I knew and some I didn't. Thanks for uploading.
  3. Back in my leftwing days Lesley and I went on a march in London demanding that she be freed. Can't remember what date and year it was though.
  4. I think Warren did a Northern night at the Groucho earlier this year. He sent me an invitation text but I was going on holiday. I suppose the Groucho is classed as posh.
  5. One of my favourite records down the 100 Club, always gets me on the dance floor. Shame it might not come out on Kent bearing in mind that Ady's been playing it for quite a while.
  6. It was my first visit to the H&G, and it lived up to expectations. Great mix of music played, and good to see plenty of my friends from the north of England. Thanks to Dave Swift for his company and for getting us to and from the station to the pub, I'd probably still be blundering around downtown Doncaster as my navigational skills are not great.
  7. As far as I know it's either acetate or tape only. Ady plays it at the 100 Club and other venues he DJs at. Great dancer, slightly faster than the version by Willie Kendrick. Love to dance to this, hope it does come out soon, preferably on vinyl.
  8. I've just listened to this, really good, thanks for uploading. Is there any chance of this being available to download as I'd like it on my MP3 player?
  9. I'll listen to your podcast later but had to write to say I hope she makes a full recovery. As you say it's amazing what science can do now. Good luck to you both.
  10. There was a bit about this on Broadcasting House on Radio 4 this morning. The 3 talking heads reviewing the Sunday papers (Arlene Philips, Paul Mason, Bryony Gordon) discuss Northern Soul and the forthcoming movie. Listen on iPlayer from 54.21 and come to your own conclusion.
  11. Hi Al, hope you are well. Can you let me have some dates for R&B123 please? It's on Sundays isn't it? I'm listening to the first of the podcasts again as I type this, I'd certainly get off my backside for these. In many ways it reminds me of the clubs in London that were going when I returned to the soul scene in 2002. Even at a nighter now these would go down very well imo.
  12. Thanks for posting these Chalky, I'm downloading them now. I wish there were soul nights in London playing this type of material. Or maybe I'm living in the past.
  13. The only one that could be described as Northern Soul was the last one played, Foolish Girl, which Paul played because he knows I love it. Some lovely slow and medium paced tunes there, for me the best one played apart from the Tiarras was Leave Her Alone by Ray Jiminez. Don't give up DJing Paul, have a rethink please.
  14. Jolly good write up, from the heart. Hope you make it a regular night to visit.
  15. Can you play both sides when you're on at the 100 Club in December please Ted?
  16. Any chance of playing it tonight at SHS please Dave?
  17. I guess you mean the acetate that Andy Dyson plays, he announces it as Jimmy Sherman's My Heart's Wide Open.
  18. Was it Mike Cotton Sounds' version of Soul Serenade? Seems to ring a bell with me.
  19. As a regular attender of the 100 Club over the last few years I echo the sentiments Ady, keep looking and finding new soulful tunes. Records like the Demures, the Gerri Grainger cover up and Nancy Wilcox's He'll Be Leaving You are fantastic Northern Soul imo. And they are the only ones that immediately spring to mind this morning as I still am in recovery mode after Lifeline. There are so many great underplayed oldies, so do get a bit disappointed when you keep hearing the usual suspects in a set. I know they are great records but certainly some could do with a rest. I'm always asking more knowledgeable people what record is on now, e.g at Lifeline I asked and was told: this is the Young Brothers' What's Your Game; the Fabulous Peps' With These Eyes; and the Fabulous Apollos' Determination, etc. I'm probably the only Soul Source member who's not really familiar with them but with my memory what do you expect? I do understand that people want different things out of the soul scene and that's everybody's prerogative. I love the social side, meeting my friends and chewing the fat, but it's the music that makes the night. So utmost respect to the DJs finding the "new" soul sounds for us to enjoy.
  20. Sawdust Caesars: Original Mod Voices by Tony Beesley published by Days Like Tomorrow Books, price £19.99 plus P&P Sawdust Caesars: Original Mod Voices, which has just been published is a new book about Mods. This time it utilises the words of people who were Mods back in the day, at the start of this youth movement, and following it through to the present day. It sets the scene for the start of Mod back at the tail end of the 1950s with teenagers who were into Modern Jazz and were thus called Modernists. Quite a lot of the book focusses on the early and mid 60s which is right, that is what led to all that followed Modwise. The book's a long read and I've only just got into it but already it's bringing back many memories that had lain dormant. It covers various areas of the UK, goes on to Skinheads and the Mod revival of the late 70s and as I've said about right through to now. There is a mention of Northern Soul, but it's about Mods not soulies, although the two can be the same. As well as the words of Mods there are loads of pictures. A few years ago I wrote a short piece about the Scene club where I spent many a happy night and that has been included, although I have amended parts of it. There's even a couple of photos of me, but I look at them and ask myself where that bloke went. In fact a friend who used to attend nighters at the Scene with me didn't recognise me in the pictures, oh dear, have I really changed that much? I'd recommend it to anyone who's interested in Mods and their history. It can be obtained from the author at this website: http://www.tonybeesleymodworld.co.uk/

  22. A superb list of tunes. So sorry I couldn't make this one. Extremely frustrating when things clash.
  23. Don't often agree with Jocko's posts but he's right on the money with this. Just before seeing this thread I'd checked DR's site to look up Wade Flemons' discography. The work he's put into it is amazing. Thank you and well done.
  24. Sorry to read this. I don't know many of his tracks but I'm A Believer has always been a favourite of mine.
