  1. I always liked Clive Dunn's take on Out On The Floor.
  2. Brilliant venue and brilliant location. Is it still being used for the Boy George story?

    Wasn't there a Holly St James - That's Not Love on Soul Fox?
  4. I'm not being funny or anything, just making an observation. But there are so many of you guys on here complaining regularly about eBay, I do wonder why you bother with it? Seems to me like it provides a villains' charter. Long gone are the days when I would be paying the sort of money the Sensations fetches, but why on earth would anyone in the name of sanity wish to part with several hundred pounds (or more) to complete strangers for goods they have never seen and clearly cannot always on the other side of the planet? I'm not saying anybody deserves to get ripped off - far from it. I just don' tknow why you endorse this eBay thing. Seems they always win and their customers frequently get the bums rush. There must be a better mousetrap, surely? Best

    My brother was a regular at the Ricky Tick Windsor. I remember one regret was that he missed a new American act called Jimi Hendrix and took a girl out on a date instead. His mates raved for weeks about "this black yank playing guitar behind his head". I don't know whether they used to play the stuff at the Ricky Tick but he used to like the Blue Beat and Ska stuff as much as the soul. He used to sit me on the steps in our living room and part my hair into a Steve Marriott style - I must have been 5 or 6 years old. I seem to recall feeling embarrassed but liked the attention. Our old man used to refer to it as "more like arseole music more than soul music". Funny what you remember when you're a kid.

    Indicative current price please for an issue - ta!
  23. Only rode in them - Tina F was the one with a dad in the motor trade and a bundle of Ford keys. Best she got were Mk II Cortinas - worst we had was a Vauxhall Victor which a couple of her jazz-funk mates liberated from the Octagon multi-storey in High Wycombe. Flipping thing packed up just west of Reading. We rolled up outside a pub in the village of Theale which the locals helpfully assisted us with a push into the car park. We had a couple in the pub, made our excuses that we were waiing for her old man to come out, laid low and then went on the hunt for a MkII. Sweet.
  24. Blimey Russ! I'll stick with me album version in that case. I prefer the other suggestions for sure. LOL
