Pete S

You just don't understand...

I remember getting his emidisc list off him in the back bar but can't relate that person to the one who's on the Stafford video

It wasn't released in the UK until 1979

Larry Santos...you got me where you want me

I'm trying not to snap and go off on one with this guy but he is f*cking annoying, he was saying yesterday that Little Milton is a poor performer because he keeps moving the mic away from his mouth and it sort of ruins it for him, he should thank his lucky stars there's a bit of footage of the bloke! He wouldn't have it that Spiral Starecase wasn't spelt Staircase, loads of other irritating comments, I think I'll just ban him.

Look at the comments on here, this guy keeps moaning, I've spelt names wrong, singers don't hold the microphone properly, the picture quality is no good, can some please add a comment telling him he's completely wrong about the Edwin Starr spelling and he is clueless? Cos I'm sick of having to reply to his comments. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzeSMYLO7zM#rNr0aztV1Eg

You seem to think everyone knew him. I didn't.

Do you get the screen up with a play button in the middle? Should just start playing when you click it...other than that, I've no idea, thats all I get on my screen

yeah there's a guy in a black bomber jacket, wearing a black leather cap, obviously never been there before in his life...but those two nights were a bit like that, they had done a show of hands poll asking whether to let the cameras in and it was a resounding no, but they came in anyway, most people actually hung around the sides of the dancefloor so the cream of the dancers so to speak were never filmed. Having said that, in part 2 which I'll post up in a minute, there is some tremendous footage of Pete Ricketts from Dudley, what a dancer he was

Part 1 (n.b. this is just up really to see the inside of the Casino again..part 2 has better footage)

I can't see anything either! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ExyUn12x0k

Can anyone see the clip? I can't! Something going on behind the scenes - I see there's a new button at the bottom 'new clip'

This one is pretty good compared to the others - not so patronising

Northern Soul - A splendidly dressed toff Crossover - A spotty, baseball cap wearing chav Modern - A scruffy tramp who smells of sick

I don't like the girl backing vocalists on Edwin's version, thats the main reason

No words necessary

Purposely posted to All About The Soul - if this doesn't bring a lump to the throat then nothing will.

he did have another soul 45 Rich...can't remember the title at the moment but it crops up regularly. It's also on Warner Bros

I put that up last week, it's from The Word, 1993

According to my 'rare soul dvd list' (available from me, free) it's Arts file - early 90's overview from the bbc, actually a fairly intelligent look at the scene

I know, I was just 'acting' nearly all these reports are the same, they are clueless - I've got a couple that are accurate, one from the BBC circa 1990, I'll dig it out

Thanks, that makes it all worthwhile
