I like that one too In a Julian Covey kind of way

Emperors a decent stab but brings to mind Willie Mason ' Why' - once you've heard Nat Hall nothing else will do

Not heard that version before - doesn't have the sheer power of the DG version but cool al the same. Surprised you don't like it Martyn, could imagine it being one of your spins

That makes sense, I can it well imagine at at mod do's

Great stuff, thanks

100% with you here - love it, and think it sounds just as good at home. Repetitive and musically simple yes, but raw and exciting. Thanks for the US info though Robb - very interesting

All good info, thanks, and interesting to get a US perspective. Solid gold party record, can imagine it going down well in the States where other stuff we play wouldn't necessarily. Out of interest what other tunes are 'overplayed' over there?

Been hammering this one recently, much to the annoyance of other members of the household Got me thinking, the first DJ I remember spinning it was Dave Rimmer (probably 12-15 years ago at a guess) but was it big previous to that and I had just missed it? Stafford? 100 Club? Torch?! Info appreciated Cheers, Chris.

Can't beat 'Do you love me just a little. honey' from the 'Dynamite' LP for my money. No 45 though as far as I know

Was at Roger Banks' 40th birthday do at the TBI Nottingham a few years ago and seem to recall him being given one as a present, presumably folks having had a whip round. Wonder if he managed to get it home in one piece

I was going to mention this one as well - a proper lost treasure, one of my favourite 45's full stop. Also love 'Show Place' from around the same time - banging tune

Hi Mark, Notice Chuck H still for sale from Steve Jeffries as below - will cost you three and a half big ones though https://www.rarenorthernsoul.com/Search/chuck+holiday/ Cheers, Chris.

Lovely, wish I had the £££'s (or $$$'s)

Was Larry Wu a Morecambe spin for Richard?

Dean, what big modern tunes do you remember from Morecambe? Pretty much what you would have heard at say Stafford around the same time or different?

What were the big tunes? Interested in hearing about northern and modern - seems to have been a good mix of both

Brilliant, thanks Jordi - great shots. Too young to have gone to Wigan myself so always interested to see photos - much appreciated

Great photo Jordi, any more you can post up?

Couple more new favourites from me - both recent Colin Curtis spins (check his excellent podcasts if soulful house your bag):-

Couple from Mark R at Cleethorpes in June that I've been hammering ever since, neither 'new tunes' exactly but new versions this year - love 'em both:-

Ten front room floorfillers for me - love them all:- Bobby Taylor - Don't be afraid Kim Weston - A thrill a moment The Originals - Don't stop now Four Tops - Can't seem to get you out of my mind Marvin Gaye - Come get to this Jr Walker - What does it take Stevie Wonder - If you really love me Barbara McNair - Forget you ever met me baby Martha & The Vandellas - Love guess who Dynamic Superiors - One Nighter

I did a colour photocopy of this Art Tatum sleeve a while back and put it in a nice chrome frame which looks the business in my home office. Couldn't believe what a good quality copy you could do on the cheap - colours are a lot brighter than the version I have copied below and it really does look great.
