Crikey - I remember Just Pants in Worcester! used to get me Brutus shirts and trousers in there! Colin

I'm with you on that Paul - would love to hear an mp3. Must be 20 years since I heard that track! Anyone? Please? Colin

Just had a thought - was the B side of Sonny Warner another dancer? Or is my mind playing the same old tricks....

It was Sonny Warner I was thinking of - thanks all!

Ok, I admit it; three decades of abuse are taking their toll. Always had a problem with short term memory loss, but now things are getting worse. There was a track popular in the latter days of the Wheel. It was on Chess, Checker or Cadet. Male vocalist. Something to do with bell bottoms? Can anyone name that tune? I can't think of it for the life of me, but I recall it was a corker.... Thanks! Colin

Thought he was OK at Birmingham last year, but surprised he was coming back so soon.

Thanks!

I remember that! I copied the words from Dave's "Lyric Turn On Of The Fortnight"! Then wrote them in a lurve letter to me girlfriend. She dumped me the very next week. Fortunately, soon after, Dave also feaured the Ad Libs, Nothing Worse Than Being Alone! It's mad the things that stick in your brain ain't it?

Are there any tickets left?

I'm pretty sure that I've heard the track more than once on various promo's. It was certainly in a movie score - Paul Newman film rings a bell. Someone will correct me or confirm, I'm sure. Levine or Curtis used to play it as last record in the Highland Room.

Is this the girl from Finland?

Just had a thought - does anybody have any interest in doing a deep soul CD swap.......

Sold mine for 25 quid in 1981! Ouch

My brother in law was spinning soul in local clubs during the Wheel days. He covered up a lot of his records like Clifford Curry, Johnny Taylor, Johnny Wyatt etc. Why? Because at that time they were not yet deleted. You could pop into your local woolies and order them.... IF you knew the title and artist.

Agree. And even at the time it was slightly silly.

Does anyone have a good quality mp3 they could post please? Need to convince girlfriend of the gorgeousness of this record before spending this much

Has anyone got a good quality MP3 of Just loving you? Please thanks!

First time I heard it was at Va Va (I think) which would have made it pre - Wigan

Records were also covered up to put Soussan off the scent for a few weeks!

What's your current or all fave? (MP3's welcome and appreciated) Currently for me it's Eddie Holman's I'm not gonna give up Incidentally, I've never really been sure how to define deep soul. I know these genres are fluid and it's all a matter of taste, but any thoughts? For example, would some of the Dells ballads do it for you? Always Together, for me, is a sublime piece of work with a gut wrenching vocal; deep enough to be labeled deep? Best Colin

Love it!

Hi All Just wondered what the going rate is for a nice clean copy of "Just Loving You" - Zodiac? There is definitely a hole in my collection that only Ruby can fill! Best Colin

Whata bunch of wimps! The Orlons, Towanda Barnes, Vel-Vets.... Too fast???!!! When you'd popped a dozen Dexies, these tunes were mid-tempo floaters!

Back around '74 I accidentally had Radio 2 on in the car. Swear to God I heard Yvonne Baker on the Jimmy Young show. Nearly gave me a heart attack! Found out next day it had just got a London issue. Twenty years later I was gobsmacked to hear Saphires "Gotta Have Your Love" on the Brian Mathew show (nice surpise I guess). My brother in law reckons Rosko played lots of goodies, but Jess and James "Move" stopped him in his tracks one Saturday lunchtime. I was reading another thread and it just set me thinking, what's the biggest soulful suprise you've ever heard while listening to mainstream (not specialist) radio?

Soon after the London issue came out, I heard Jimmy Young on R2 playing Yvonne Baker! True... Hmmmm.... idea for a thread.....
