I love your positive approach Russ - Infectious!....Now go and sit next to Alison, and I'll take a photo of your smiles. ........Oh, and on your way out, could you turn the light out mate? All the best, Len P.s - Your post number 15..."It was a pop up Casino thing I think".......came across so 'dead pan' (being as I know you) it had me in stitches - It was all 'matter of fact'

Cracking idea - and that money could go to folk who do join in.......wow - you could make a living from posting! I get your serious point though Pete Len

Nowadays some people simply don't reply if something's been dealt with. I.e - If you tell someone you have a want of theirs, but in the meantime they get one / Or you want a record that's on a list, but in the meantime it has been sold.......In their defence, I suppose they would be replying a to a lot of people, so it could take to much time. I do see it as rude (if the time isn't an issue) but I'm old fashioned - At the same time, I realise times have changed, and it's not 'the done thing' anymore for some people.......It still takes me a good while to deal with this issue though....... Please reply someone...................anyone............... All the best, Len

I do love Sandy Williams, but have to say Barbara Lewis is my fave. I guess most are of that opinion. All the best, Len

Yes there is, but this is the 'different' version, and that's all that matters All the best, Len P.s - It's not R 'n' B

I love it, and play it out from time to time - I'd say there would be some demand for it. ......but what do I know? All the best, Len

Ahem - Yes, sorry about that Len

......That's a very good question.....um......um......Yes - I can see (hear) that 'Ike and Tina Turner - Dust My Broom' has Soul, but I don't like it - so it must be a 'bad record with soul' 'Shouty Soul' All the best, Len

....Only because I don't want others to miss out - It's my 'gift to the world' Len

.....and they would have a point - Woof! Len

I don't know what I mean now! Len

You got it! ........Obviously all what I have written is just my opinion......that just happens to be correct All the best, Len P.s - Post Number 312 - Best post of the thread See ya tomorrow.......but surely that's it now......

Oh no, no, no that's perfectly ok, 70's and Modern Soul is absolutely fine - It's that word 'Soul' you see, and I have to say in ref to post 304 (Labeat) 'R'n'B edged Northern' or as I call it 'Soulful R 'n' B' is also welcome at soul events - because it's soulful. There is a difference between the two tunes I posted earlier - 'The Trends' and 'That other one' All the best, Len

Why is O.V.O so important?......... Len

You dance how the h*ll you like 'young man' Yes you did dance to most of the tunes I played, and I am a little surprised at some of the tunes you have posted up - That's not a dig, just my observation because of this. Whether you like em or not though, doesn't come into it - It's whether they should be included at soul events. Answer - No All the best, Len

Antidote for you! Get well soon! All the best, Len 'THE DYNAMICS - I NEED YOUR LOVE' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eC7qmek_xKw

Original post from Dave Ward - My last all-nighter was 1985, so forgive me if I'm off the mark here, R&B to me was cool, not Northern Soul dance music, but cool. Why is there this hatred towards R&B now ? I've seen photo's of people wearing anti-R&B T-shirts ? Is it something todays DJ's are pushing, that offends people. A couple of examples I could hear or look up on YTube, would help me understand. ......So Dave, has 'all of the above' helped you understand?........at all........ All the best, Len

Not if I have anything to do with it matey All the best, Len

Hi Jocko, I meant 'I'm Gone'.......away from the computer, as it seems real life was happening just outside my front door........I must have forgot it would make no sense! But back to 'this'.......'I'm Gone' IS Northern Soul - WITH BELLS ON!.........(Ahem.......just so ya know) All the best, Len

I'm gone. Len

.....Just left the room again, and I noticed that my whole road has been blocked off, with three fire engines, and loads of Police out there. So I nipped out to have a word with the Plod, and it seems a murder has taken place (allegedly) and a whole house has been set on fire, and put out.......whilst I was here 'chatting' on Soul-source......"I didn't see or hear anything your honour because I was on Soul-source"....... .......Blimey....... I kid you not - You will see it on the news tomorrow. All the best, Len

Can you see me?! .....I've just been on the phone - Yes, out of the room! Len

No they're not mate, just the one is (The Trends) ....Just so you know Ouch!.....Ok I asked for that kick All the best, Len

This could go on forever! - I love 'Bobby Bland - Shoes' ......and back full circle to my very first post......."If it ain't soul, it ain't soul" I think it's great that 'you lot' get it so wrong.......or is it me that does?.......In any case - it's what makes us all tick! All the best. Len

That is a unique record that fitted so well when first played, and was very 'left field'. It has stood the test of time, and I still think it's pretty unique. All the best, Len
