  1. Ral Donner - Don't let it slip away Williams & Watson - Too late James Bounty - Prove yourself a lady Dean Parrish - I'm on my way
  2. Rufus Lumley - I'm standing
  3. Got into Northern around 1983 and have been in there with both feet since. Interesting topic though, then and now thing . Now.......I drive a sensible car of Germanic persuasion. Designed to get me there & back in comfort, safely. Then......I drove an S reg Chrysler Avenger, that was designed to overheat and play up constantly. Tinny sounds from shitty cassette player. Now.......I may need some 'assistance' to make it through the night. Then......We stayed to the end and drove back from afar on youth and vitality alone.
  4. Would still like to see a proper film about the history of Motown. Samuel L Jackson perfect for the role of Harvey Fuqua. Any way you want, any way you want , any way you want!
  5. Got sent a great CD for my birthday the other day. Many fine tracks etc. One that stood out for me was, Delroy Wilson ~ I want justice. Top tune
  6. Was just gonna say George Pepp Hairy knuckles for a chick
  7. Lyrics similar to that Gerri Granger c/u Ady plays - Why can't it be tonight.
  8. Have a listen to the flip of this if it's the same as the US issue, it's a treat. All about LSD
  9. What I want to know is why Jon brought this thread back to life after being dormant for a year? Something not quite right about NS dance lessons imo. Think I know what it is that troubles me about them. If it is possible to teach someone how to dance NS style, then they're being fast tracked and in doing so missing out on the discovery experience. Nationally speaking the rare soul fan is in a minority, but if you love the music, it should move you. In through the ears and out through the legs.
  10. Holy moly, £25 for a pressing! Remember Rob Smith - £1.50 worn!
  11. I know we know a Stardust copies' only worth a tenner. But I wonder if it'd fetch anymore than that, bearing in mind the above And the Pyramid boot going for £70 on ebay etc. Think someone should give it a go
  12. Ooh you'll get slated for that on here Gene. I think it's great, got one on Decca
  13. Wise words You're another (along with Baz) that should be in this flick mate, looking younger than your 31 years and you're a good dancer
  14. You could be in it mate, with your youthful look How's yer dancin'?
  15. They had scouts at 100 last Sat. They were after young looking dancers. My mate tried to schmooze on of them
  16. Joe Hinton - You gotta have love (BACKBEAT). Under a tenner and simply fantastic. Great dancer
  17. Had over a dozen items going through then. After losing a mint Capitol, Nancy Wilson for four quid, to some dude in Germany. Thought it wise to use Joanne's ID to put a £40 bid on that LP, which I thought was reasonable. But was surprised when it didn't fetch more. Took my eye off the ball see. Not with Timi though. Paid my £800 tax bill that month. Glad I've still got the LP.
  18. Strewth! No sod wanted my Something Bad LP the other week, my bird was the high bidder
  19. Good call and a great record. Was given a UK issue of this for my birthday yesterday. Which was nice What about the Tops - Baby I need your loving. Would be a sensational discovery. Sometimes played as an ender at 100.
  20. Bit of a tough one this. Mate of mine desperate to know (if poss title and artist). Track is soul, maybe slightly R&B esq. Below is all we know thus far. Any other info from soul doc Chalky or anyone else who knows owt about it, would be walmly received. It's a Butch spin, but Dargey played it a couple of times at Deep Funk. All I know is that the chorus bit repeats the line, "Yes... yes I know" a few times and there's a rolling, grinding sort of piano-led riff in it... top tune, though. > ---------- > From: Alpha Group > Sent: Wednesday, August 10, 2005 2:41 pm > To: Gosden, Nigel > Subject: that track? > > Hey Dude, > > What was the name of the track you wanted me to ask about?

  21. Went with Marv, gotta say. Marvin liked to distance himself from other male solo artists at Motown, did it to Jimmy Ruffin too. In record sales though he outsold the Temptaions, Four Tops, Smokey Robinson & the Miracles. Was 2nd only to the Supremes. Rare soul is where it's at imo. But to spare a thought for a commercial soul act ... Marvin.
  22. They sound great. Not that many people go to the trouble of ordering specialist strides. How much?
  23. Getting somewhere near back on topic for a cotton pickin' moment. Have you seen the size of Levine (Jon's pic post#18) these days Saw him at 100 few year's back and although he's always been a bit of a chunk, he was nowhere near that size - orca!
  24. Too much gay sex on this site Where did you get that quote from with the signature, from the threads thread? Karen C's right about your avatar, top totty Gwen Stefani
