FOUR xmas niter Dec 79, 4th oldies anniv Feb 80, 7th Anniv (80) & 5th oldies anniv feb 81 IAN

Al Williams - LaBeat Alexander Patton - UK Capitol they'd do me nicely, Ian

is my memory fading , or did i really hear 'Best of my love' by The Emotions at St Ives ? also, when was the last time you heard Phyllis Hyman ' You know how to love me' ? or back with the 60's tunes, 'Esperanto' ? Ian

I only have one Contempo release....... Hung up on your love, absoltely no problem playing it at a venue. one of my all time faves. Ian

I think it's a great idea! Debbie x

I think of Northern Soul as more of a success It's kept us all interested for many years! Debbie x

I bet this game would sell! Debbie x

In my local village at Woodhall Spa, i saw a poster up for........................Northern Soul Disco with live cover's band, ticket price £10 I could not tear it down quick enough! I doubt very much that they would of been playing record's Debbie x

I did go to a Soul night many year's ago, where they were playing records, but when another dj walked in with a laptop & c.d's.............i walked out Debbie x

Yes Ian, i did play from a laptop and CD's, but it was'nt a soul night, it was a private new yrs eve party............ I seem to remember getting bums off seats too

visit Grosvenor rooms. you'll hear it

The Deadbeats - No Second Chance And it's one of my fav tunes (I could not think of my ex as the one i loved , i was glad to see the back of him) Debbie x

This is only my opinion.............. But i would say no to c.d's Debbie x

Gerri Thomas - look what i got Ian

I find it amazing that a lot/most of these tunes listed in the thread have been played loads in the past year at venues we've been to. 2 of the above are a good example. Wayne fontana - Monaco ballroom Sapphires - Grosvenor last week ( i played it) I also heard 'soul step' not too long ago but can't remember exactly where as a side note, many folk say the oldies scene plays the same tired old tunes. . . . obvioulsy not the case if this thread is anything to go by

yes Tony, Clyde, my eyes aint workin, tis early

crikey. as a 'hobby' drummer and a fan of the early sticksmen. who was the best is pretty personal. yes Earl Young is up there, but so is Bernard Purdie and Clive Stubblefield (James Brown). they put the 'groove' into the soul/RnB recordings . good thread, IAN

Hi, I used to have a website selling goods & people did buy from it If you can build the website yourself?, it does work out alot cheaper plus it pays to purchase the name for it, so no one else can use your name, that was a bit exspensive, but within about a few months or so.....it had paid for itself Depending on what you want to sell?, you could try setting up one of those free website's, to keep the cost's down & see how it goes?.........But i think it's worth giving it ago Please feel free to contact me with any questions about this. All the best, Debbie x

Because there has been so much interest in clothing, i have started another thread on this subject, so it give's Paul a chance to stick to his original posting Thank you, Debbie x

I have been known to swing my tassles at the odd Soul night! On my wedding day, i have told Ian my partner that i will be dressed as Betty Page, i love the Burlesque thing! Perhaps that's another reason i like the circle skirts.........i like a tight pulled in waist & when you spin, you flash your knickers! Debbie x

blimey, hear these on a monthly basis... Bunny sigler, new yrs eve, Lou Pride, last saturday

hahahahahahahhaaaaaaaa

Thank you ever so much Jim that's very kind of you Debbie x
