He is a bloody good singer live ! Is there any earlier relationship with the Temptations ? Rob

We love both sides, just a titbit of trivia. When David Ruffin and Eddie Kendrick came over on the Temptations tour in 1991 they introduced the rest of the group with them and Nate Evans was a Temp, it caused quite a stir amoungst the folks that night in Donny ! Rob & Karen

We spent ages looking for Mr Smith and drew blanks all round, a real mystery man, on the subject of ask or Axe Bobby thurstons classic "just ask me" will never sound the same when you listen to it again now "just AXE me, Just AXE me baby, why don't cha just Axe me, just AXE me baby" I'd buy you a hatchet, just say the word, don't use a chainsaw you'll look like a nerd I want you to Axe me, "just AXE me, Just AXE me baby, why don't cha just Axe me, just AXE me baby" or something like that Rob

Melvin Davis told us a great tale about his band The Jaywalkers melvin Davis, Steve Mancha, Lyman & David Ruffin. Driving back from a gig in upsate Michigan and finding a Roller Coaster on a farm in the middle of nowhere, a farmer had build a great big F**k off wooden roller coaster in an atemp to become the new disneyland or Coney island in Mich. They all had consumed copulous amounts of illegal substances and got on the coaster--6 hours later they are still on it after riding it constantly, they just couldn't get out of the carriages and the more they tried the more they laughed and it set off again causing them to laugh more ! He tells it really well, and there's 3 BIG LEGENDS involved as well ! Rob & karen

Harry, i think you're gonna have to change the name BUT how about York Railway Soul Night (or summat ) formally known as York Soul Train. Rob

Best of luck Max I'm always sad to see an "instatution" like Max's shop shut. Have a great retirement and sit down and start writing that book ! I'm waiting for the chapter(s) where you first met Neil Rushton Take care Rob & karen

I'm on "auto-delete" what have I been missing !!

There is nowt like a bit of Bribery and corruption mate

Lets have a photo Harry

Which one is it John ? the paper label or blue plastic type east or west coast ?? rob

Giving this one last shot and we'll put it to bed "Thou shall name thy Soul Night after a record thy hast just purchased and which is slightly cool just remember to put thy post code on the flyer so the rest of us know where it is"

Hi Dave just put the record in my box for Germany (70s room), but on the subject of Barry White what about his Downey label outing as LEE BARRY "I don't need it" a nice cheapie and great dancer ! Now get back to work , the railway needs you Rob & Karen

Thou shall NEVER run another soul night in someone else's venue once it has closed Thou shall search for an obscure venue with a 15,000 square foot dance floor in a town no one has ever heard of before.

And on the Sabeth thy shall rest whilst working out how to post such a video, forsoothe the digital camera afore mentioned spewed forth a still photograph and we encloseth said photograph below for the perusall of Soul Source members to cast their eyes upon the said Moderator "Cunnie" having un-holy convultions and throwing himself down in front of the false God Erroll in the Parish of Kiverton Park.

looks like you are liking this thread, some great replies I'll add another myself "Thy shall not enter dancing competitions if you can't F**king dance and if doing so when the good lord taps you on the shoulder to get off the floor, thy should leave. NOT keep standing there with the good dancers otherwise thy will be made to look a prat"

I can tell you lot only go to the "Church of Northern soul" keep em coming

Let's have a little fun with this one. Many of us got into the scene 30 odd years ago and we adhered to an un-written code of conduct that applied and was rarely spoken about. These "rules" or "commandments" are what bind us together inexplicably. The scene is "fluid" it ebbs and flows and like the tides and no one can control it (although there have been many King Canute's who have tried over the years !). What would be your idea of "The ten Commandments of Northern Soul"? Let's each add one or two and we'll get them listed at the end of the thread For what it's worth here's my starter "Thou shall not play Bootleg records when DJing" Rob

Just had a cheque through this morning for £5 from a Mrs C Jarvis, no address or letter to send poster to etc can't work it out from PMs either although there are 2 orders outstanding from original post ?? HELP !! Rob

Poster A 60s Impressions Poster B O'Jays 50th tour Poster C Melvin Davis (Middle Pic) (Left side) (Right Side)

looks like a good cause, we'll try and help and do what we can. When they put the marker on Darrel Banks grave in Detroit it generated a lot of good publicity for lesser known Black Soul artist in general and it got loads of press, especially with the Uk involvement. Rob & Karen

Ive got pictures.......

Not even thinking about that Tats, but can you remember the Guy we bumped into in the same town who sent us to the black hairdressers supply shop. Her uncle had the store before her and handed over the keys when he went on 25 year stretch at Uncle Sams pleasure for armed robbery. We walked in to be looked at as if we had just landed from Mars (it was your "shell suit" period tats)- We asked if this used to be the oldies record mart, she said "yes 6 years ago". "Do you know where he's moved to ?" "Jacksonville state penentiory" "No records then ?" "Only these under the counter" we looked and it was mainly 70s/80s stuff including around 10 copies of Mark IV "If you can't tell me something good about my baby" Brite lite 7" at 50 cents each (Around £220-£250 at the time) RESULT ! Viva the LaBeat Boys !!!

dave's on here, but i bet he can't remember a lot of them himself I,m useless at lyrics myself, but can remember titles ! Rob
