I'll have an "E" please Bob :o))) (poor taste I know, but I'm sure Bob is resting in peace now) Stage name Gaye, family name Gay ;o) x

Very good ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Of course you can !! Do you know which one is Johnny Mick ?

Oh yeah!!! I didn't spot him earlier !! He gets everywhere, the jammy bugger, I've got photo's of the upstairs dancefloor, and he's on them too!! No sign of Sue though .... she was probably talking someone's head off in a corner

Being really girly here , but Betty Wright's Afro was superb!!! Cockney Steve eat your heart out

He was awesome singing the Work Song Usually the audience can sing the song word for word, not this time but I could It was sooooo cool. Wasn't keen on his silly head thing, but his voice more than made up for the reject balaclava

Betty Wright was " Wright On !! " :thumbsup:

He hasn't changed Barry, he still loves to show case his dance moves (& we love him for it) He's on soulsource, I'll be seeing him next week at the Hilton, so I'll tell him about this thread, if he doesn't see it before

Which one is Johnny ? I've spotted Mick, Vernon, Bosy (Bradford one) but for the life of me can't make out Johnny?

Wow! My boss is called Jody, we call him Mr Tickle, as when he's had a drink his hands wander. He's now married, but I reckon the above description is still apt for him

It's my favourite clip so far, I didn't want it to end Pmsl at Dave telling Alex to blow his horn

Cheers Barry, you are the answer to my prayers ok, I know that's the other Shine On but I couldn't really quote the "Joy" Shine On to you (a bit too saucy for soul sauce source) Many thanks x P.S I'm not really dancing round the room to it as I type this post

Merry Christmas Lawrence & all at the Harold Club !!! Have a fab night & see you all in the new year Lots of love & christmas pudding Ali xxx

:thumbsup: I can't remember all them blooming whistles down there, not knocking it though, as I had one just can't remember blowing it at Bradford. Great footage (again), makes me go all tingly

Barry, I know I should know it, but what's the track at the end, 6.08 in, female vocalist. Great footage, but it may be better if you leave it in darkness x

I was in awe of Kathy Kirby at Bradford Queens Hall, she frightened the life out of me also For me, Kathy Kirby was the best female dancer of all time If Kathy ever reads this Come on lady, put on your dancing shoes again, and show us how it's done Ali (Age 18) xx

The documentary was about "Northern Soul", not "Rare Soul", granted the two intertwine at times, but for me, the two are different and as much as I like stroking some-ones chin, I also like stepping back in time. A documentary/film on Rare Soul would not cut the mustard with the masses (blimey they'll even struggle with the "Northern Soul" concept) Surely the whole beauty of the Rare scene, is just that, it's rare, so keep it hidden I say

The silly thing is I quite enjoyed listening to The Snake, it's not a tune that I hear anymore, and it took me back to when I first heard it, a mod club called Cloud Nine in Manchester in 1985 at the tender age of 16. I didn't mind listening to any of the tunes played tonight (in the comfort of my own home) as they all mean't something to me somewhere down my Timeline

As well as your posts making complete sense to me that made me howl just as much as PW's leaving your teeth at the door comment :lol:

I was rushing my post somewhat, whilst multi-tasking, cheese savoury in the gob, iphone in hand, eye on the clock. I couldn't afford to be late back from lunch as well, blimey, I'd already blamed my poor time-keeping on Northern Soul my boss would throw the book at me had I tried to use it again ..... in the same day Thankfully, you & others have elaborated on my lunchtime rant and got the message across much clearer

Haven't read the whole of the thread so not sure if people are, or aren't getting their knickers in a twist, but I was late for work this morning because I watched it, was is worth it?? Hell yes!!! I thought PW came over extremely well & I howled at his false teeth comment (still chuckling when I think about it) I'm certainly not going to lose sleep over it, mock it, or dissect it. My life's too short Well done BBC !! Ali x ps it was great apologising to my boss for my lateness, blamed it on Northern Soul, something I've never owned up to before especially on a Monday morning ;o) Right, better sign off, I have some time to make up x
