'Spot-light On' Roger Banks
A man with great great knowledge and off the cuff too, much respect. Now heres a funny personal one, I had just moved back into my old village (Willington) having lived in Burton on Trent for a couple of years. Roger came to stop over for one night so round the pub/ hotel we go, having been away from Willington a generation of local lads had come of age and were of drinking age and a group of them were playing pool. Me and Roger put our 20p down and awaited our turn (winner stays on) so we are up against a couple of younger lads and not doing very well, "just a minute" said Roger and off he went, when he returned he had a condom in his hand and promptly shoved it down one of the pockets. Well stood there being stared at by the two guys looking for an explanation from me, i'am as bemused as they are until Roger lets out "its ok, its a safety shot" the entire pub pool players all cracked up with laughter. As time moved forward a lot of the guys used to ask whens your fuckin mad mate coming down again Gilly

Northern Soul records that should have been hits?
I think this is a rather good question, ( I also don't want to see our music being watered down and end up in the charts) but I always thought "You've been gone to long" Ann Sexton could of made it and if revamped would still have a chance Let me quickly add by her that is

JOHN POWNEY RIP - Funeral details
How sad, this guy has to be given the highest respect, he was way ahead in his game, it was he who put Guy Hennigan onto James Lately who in turn told me about it and because of that I got lucky. Have to say I only ever met him once. I remember Micky Cruise was always talking about him as was Tony Colby he must of influenced a lot of people in his reserved life style. Bless you John, it was the likes of he who made what we are today.

'Spot-light On' Nev Wherry
Yes indeed, Nev was a super human being, I remember at the Painted Lady alldayer one time my mate Kev Orton from Burton Upon Trent was flat out on the dance floor mainly due to the fact that The Mighty Bub was sat on him and Nev was mucking about trying to get Kevs trousers down, all good fun I guess
