Makes sense now Don't know anything about Lola

Got to be a different Fluffy - ours definitely a bloke! Strange though, can't imagine two Fluffy Falana's, as such an unusual name Not the greatest singer in the world either but can't see the Cliff similarity Peter

Woah, what a tune - love this. Only just cottoned on to it recently, put off previously by dopey sounding artist / title Tuneless dirge or atmospheric magic?

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):-
