    Generally most of the scenes "anthems" or "floorfillers" have been booted or re-issued. If you were to play a record like Billy Prophet or The Anderson Brothers (& neither of them were originals) would it affect the amount of people dancing to them? Or would they be too busy running to the decks to check their authenticity? I guarantee that everybody on this forum has at some stage danced to a record in "non-original" format.

    How would the scene cope with a policy adopted back in the days of Wigan & Mecca. Once a record was booted or re-issued it was no longer played at major venues - this was of course before "oldies nights" at Wigan.

    Can see all sides of the argument- however if I was booking a top "name" Dj I would not expect him to play such "overplayed" tunes that they had been booted in the first place. After all the "500" records I am talking about are not what I would expect a "Top DJ" to play. If he can only fill the floor with the "same old" - even if on original he's not IMHO, worth hiring.

    Lucky old Mike - whoever he is!!
  5. As per usual the chemical side of things had to be mentioned. Of course Russ informed the nation that the attendees were all fuelled on "Lucozade" - Priceless!!

    Came out on Parallel records in America - big spin for Colin C @ The Mecca.

    Think you will find it is Sidney Thomas "Look Let's Make Love" - NOT Ronnie Love
  8. Why is their a lot of West Midland avatars on here at the moment?
  9. What can I say Pete? - your post "It's Great!!!"
  10. Think we all may argue at what order these records should be listed - indeed there are lots of records I own or have heard that don't even make it into the book. In fairness they probably represent the 500 most played/best dancefloor reaction tunes of the last 30 odd years. Like everybody else I have my likes & my dislikes in there - that would always be the case in a project like this.
  11. Nine Times Out Of Ten it probably would have missed you!!!

    Interesting opinions on this. Agree with Pete about Dean Courtney & Bobby Hebb - they are just perfect soul records - 2 of the best records ever played on the northern scene. The Len Barry version has a "cool - laidback" feel in the vocals - can imagine him just stood in the studio with an open neck shirt on & just going for it as if he was singing in a nightclub. Like it.
  13. There are plenty of soul nights in & around the Blackpool area already with prices ranging from - FREE - £3.00 - £6.00 admission. I don't think any of them are full to the rafters - & to be honest "live acts" are not everyones cup of tea.

  18. Always puzzled me why people have to make such grand announcements when leaving the forum. If & when I decide to go I will do just that - no fuss & certainly no announcement. Had quite a few people on here who have said things "I'll never post again" - Don't want to be a part of this anymore" etc. etc. Then after a couple of weeks the old "Frank Sinatra" syndrome kicks in - "Hey guys I'm back" Then these people have a grand reunion & welcoming back thread - "Oh how we've missed you" Just does not sit well with me people.
  19. Good on ya for trying something different - not the usual same old,same old. I know practically all the tunes in your list & most hit the spot for me - & ALL of them are better than the truly awful Benny Troy.
  20. Sorry I always thought the guidance on any thread is usually taken by one of the early postings - usually find that post 1 is the best place to start.
  21. I give up too . Just what part of your thread says "Legitimate US reissue labels" Write what you mean FFS
  22. Old Mecca spin for Colin C - Interesting version of Quick Change Artist on the flip
  23. Clear as f**king mud - mate
