  1. It has been mooted but not my area, I'll try and find out
  2. The Larry Banks lyrics to Blowing Up My Mind and Moving Too Slow are bizarre but brilliant
  3. And one of the group, the lead I think has the lovely Priscilla Page as a sister.
  4. I played it once or twice in the late 80s from master tape, it was thought to be unissued and Tim got a copy of my master tape which is why he thought it was unissued. I didn't stick with it as I didn't like it that much. Great to know it was Miles and William Powell. All I need is a Scan now. LOL
  5. I think I played it off a master tape acetate first

  8. Has anybody got a copy? I could do with a scan and a soundfile of the flip-Shake That Thing Ta Ady
  9. Solid Smokes for me please Dave

    I can't think of any doo wop, they may mean R&B or early soul vocal groups who sounded like the Drifters?

    100 Club was. We had to miss all those last ever Wigan nighters LOL

    No books remotely nailed it but articles and essays like Chalky's and others have covered parts of it very well. There's certainly been enough Wigan analysis so I think you're on fertile ground.

    I heard some of them used deodorant too!
  14. That rape scene was ridiculous; actually this makes Soul Boy seem well researched
  15. Whoops this is outta date already, I knew there was someone I hadn't told; bollox
  16. No Change of Hours - 100 Club Allnighter Sat 1st Nov 2014 updated View full article
  17. Article updated by site After a lot of toing and froing we're finally back to our usual 11pm-6am hours The club have promised not to mess us about again and have also let us have the original Oct 31st date I wanted instead of Nov 7th. The October Xfire is a week earlier too so the new dates are 100 Club all nighters 11pm-6am except for September 36th anniversary which is 10pm-6am Jan 24th March 7th, April 18th May 30th July 11th Aug 22nd Sept 26th Oct 31st Dec 5th Xmas Party Dec 17th 9pm-2am Cleethorpes Weekender June 12-14th Xfire Easter Sunday April 5th and October 10th Seizure there Ady I'm afraid we've had another last minute change forced on us by the 100 Club. They booked a prestigious rock act in late last week without consulting me and expected me to move the all nighter to Friday or another week in November. Yet again my blood ran cold and after a couple of days of persuasion I've managed to negotiate it to be on the same night but the hours will be 12.30-7am. We only lose half an hour but it is a more inconvenient starting time so I will put the price down to a tenner again and when the rush starts at 12.30 we can get everybody in very quickly with no coins to worry about. For those who meet up in the Blue Posts, remember that shuts at 11pm so the Green Man on Berwick Street may be better with last orders at 12, it's 2 minutes from the club but you shouldn't have too long to wait to get down the stairs. Many apologies, it was mainly down to an inexperienced booker who didn't realise the importance of the nighters, particularly for the long distance travelers who pre-book trains and hotels. It won't happen again. Ady PS The flyer times are obviously incorrect now.
  18. Mick used to play that I thought? Not one I dig; much prefer the vocal.
  19. From CD KEND 347 15. AIN’T NO LOVE LOST - PATTI JO (Curtis Mayfield) Arranged by Richard Tufo. Produced by Curtis Mayfield. Scepter 12366 (1972) Patti Jo came from Nashville to Chicago at the tender age of 16 to record four enchanting sides with Curtis Mayfield around the time he was developing artists for his Curtom label and production company. Subtle and sensuous Chicago soul from Curtis’ productive Superfly period, this was her first release; the follow-up appeared on Wand. Patti had a CD released out of Nashville in the mid-90s, so presumably returned to her roots after the Chicago sojourn.
  20. That's bonkers, it wasn't released in the US apart from a handful of demos, I can't remotely see how it would come out in Jamaica on Wand
  21. My sources tell me it was Pete Tilsley from Stockport and he broke his arm. Sounds about right
  22. but someone did it at the Torch didn't they? I remember our mob dancing in a circle at the Harborough all nighter and taking turns to do a solo in the middle, frequently followed by an affectionate kick up the arse
  23. There was a lot of traffic between Az and L A Dave. Eddie & Ernie and Hadley Murrell in particular. Mel Alexander would know about Zeke, he was involved in some of those labels
  24. In a twist to the tale, it might be out in the first half of next year but not on Kent. I'll post on here when I know for definite
