That what he said mate, Christine Cooper…

Heard Carl wiilingham play this a few years ago, first time i'd heard it since Wigan. One from me - The Sweet - Broken Heart Attack

Can't wait!

Me too, the whole night revolved around Searlings spot. Great memories

Yeah but that one's an original reissue…………..

So the part of the criticism of Stafford was that some of the music was white pop? Whats the feeling on this now? I never went but as I learnt about what was played probably 10 years later, thats not the impression I got

Could people please stop posting shit like this, then I could pretend its not actually happening………………...

Absolutely, KevH slapped my wrist about 10 years ago and told me to always play my b-sides Still getting round to it, I'm going through my collection, playing both sides and recording them to iTunes (where the b-side is good enough ) only up to G at the moment but got loads of examples I could list. Probably the worst example I can think of is that I had a copy of Jimmy Mack (only a soul galore pressing) for 30 years and never played Go On……….

"This is my point of view and I am right"…...

Absolutely dire, one of the worse things I've ever seen

Great article BTW

Ive still got the mag, is it really 22 years ago?…..

Just when I thought things couldn't get any worse………. oh lord, why hast thou forsaken us?

Someone call Tony Robinson & time team

Well deserved Ady - nice one

I've no idea, I never heard anything they said and still don't (very often)

If Ady doesn't mind

You must have had a sheltered life Phil, coming from a pit town council estate, we swore a lot at school and even more after starting work at the pit aged 16, the girls/women didn't swear that much though and you restricted your language round them. Tattoos - loads of my mates had them, starting from around the age of 15. I wanted to but wimped out (been glad I did ever since) Ear piercing definitely as well, had mine done at 16/17 (left ear only) I reckon the use of "cheers" is a more recent thing though

Soz to nit pick on your nit picking mate but was in common use up North at the time…… deffo!

You ought to see FB mate……...

A couple of observations on this article: "If northern soul makes a comeback with this film it will probably be spectacular and brief." "Many young people I’ve talked to describe their frustrations with the mainstream EDM scene in the same way we talked about the disco and nightclub circuits of the Seventies: stale, commercialised, samey and exploitative." ……oh the irony

Occasionally? He's the most consistently over priced seller I've ever seen - Ive no idea how he sells anything

I was thinking that, as you say with very limited screenings surely 95% of people who see it are those already in the know. Cant see many casual cinema goers just turning up
