Wigan Casino
This was when the scene went really underground, the privilaged few were let know by word of mouth etc that the casino was still going strong, to passer-bys the place looked closed,but inside the place was rocking,it was sad on the last night as the curtain came down 23/09/85 .

Richard Searling
Richard definitely got the best deal, William Powell always goes for a few grand when it comes up for sale,i was never a big fan of Z.Z & Co and Larry Houston is easy to come by. My personal favourite Searling/Anderson discoveries are Cecil Washington,Court Davis and Judy Hughes.

Richard Searling
Damon Fox and William Powell were first spun by Soul Sam i believe, covered up respectively as Don Parker and Bobby Jason. Sam swapped these two to Searling for Z.Z and Co. - Getting Ready For The Getdown and Larry Houston - Lets spend some time together.

Northern Soul's Fastest 45's
The Radiants - Hold On, Jackie Wilson - Higher And Higher, i find those two very tricky to dance to.

Soulboy - The Movie. You've Seen It So . .
My friends and myself went to see it, on monday in Newcastle,it was a sell-out,roughly 250-300 people there,we all thought it was good, the soundtrack was great,the only complaint was the ridiculous dance off at the end.

Smash
Larry Clinton,Court Davis,Cecil Washington,Moses Dillard,Little Ann etc etc, Frank Wilson was overrated from the off, those records i have mentioned are far superior to anything dicovered in the last twenty years.

This record is still a million times better than the dross dished out by plebs like Frank Wilson and George Lemons,the average soul fan back in the day when this was first played had more knowledge and better taste than the average soul fan nowadays,some of the crap i hear at events wouldn't have got near a turn table in Searlings hey day at the Casino 1978-1981.

Can someone tell me the words at the intro of The Sweet " Broken Heart Attack " what comes immediately after ' When you left me' i still can't understand it and i have loved this track for 30 years.

Soul Source Top 100 Northern Classics Published End Of June 2010
No doubt Frank Wilson will make it onto the list, purely because of the rarity of the disc and certainly not because of soul content.

I also have a question regarding this record, 'Why Is It So Crap'?

Hi, i know this album (Sweetest Piece Of The Pie) is getting harder to find, can anyone let me know how much this album goes for, thank you.- Nicky Newarkers
I already have it on CD, Dave..how much would you charge to knock one up.- Nicky Newarkers
Cheers, EBay is very strange indeed, i was after a copy of The Parliaments 'Don't Be Sore At Me' one copy went for £56, the very next day i got one for £11, both were identical Revilot issues in excellent condition.- Nicky Newarkers
Was Nicky Newarkers 'Woman' ever bootlegged, there is one on EBay approaching £400, i was wondering if an alternative was available, thanks.- Should You Clean Before Selling ?
Thank you for your advice, i followed your instructions to the letter, and yes my copy of Frank Wilson does actually sound better.- Aaarrgghhh! Wombat Im Gettin' On Life?
Wombat still destroys Frank Wilson, surely the most sickly sweet soul? record of all time,imagine Frank Wilson discovered in its thousands on Ric-Tic...it wouldnt get nowhere near anyones personal top 100.- Joe 90
Talking of Ron Grainer i am not scared to say i like 'When Love Grows Cold' by him.- Moron
Has it been booted? because there are other copies available for as low as $4.99- Tricky To Dance To
Nate Evans - This Time With Feeling.- So What's A Stormer ?
I totally agree, stunning vocals with lyrics to compliment " You got it, a natural personality, and when you hold my hand i feel like Superman " slightly better than Do I Love You. - Bobby Thurston 'sweetest Piece'
