    Wow hot or what ? Thats got to be up there with the best niters ever held at Nuneaton co op ? Gonna live in my memory for a long time DJ's delivered , dancers responded , incredible, I'm knackered, thank you.
  1. Hi again Mark just received latest soul up north magazine there's a advert in there says this one is the last niter , top of this page says penultimate? Can you clarify please . Martin.
  2. Got a full on day, my footy team to watch & a soul night to call in on , I'll be there about 11ish please let me in ! I have been attending since you started as a soul night ! Many thanks to you Mark & all your supporting acts down the years , Mark always says bring a clean top , one's no good I normally get through three ! As the man says see you at the go go , & as Frank Elson used to say back in the day keep the friendship!
  3. Personally i regard northern soul as a retro scene , a hip happening scene it ain't, stopped being that decades ago surely, just a way of having a laugh, I'm in my 65th year & I'm lucky enought to be fit & when I go out I celebrate that fact . Rare/deep soul now that's a different matter , Doris Duke 'I don't care anymore ' boy oh boy anyone that's ever had their heart broken try & keep it together whilst listening to that !
  4. Ktf means to me a protection of civil rights . I remember being shocked & moved to drop a few tears when Martin Luther king jnr was assassinated , I was appalled at Muhammad Ally's treatment , & disgusted at appartide. I didn't understand what John Carlos & Tommie Smith were doing at Mexico. But when I started reading blues & soul circa 71 & Dave Godin's column then the penny dropped, the clenched fist , keep the faith , keep on keeping on ,right on brothers & sisters, this was a message to soul artists , we love your music, your soul reachers our soul , carry on your struggle for equality. AND WE WILL KEEP THE FAITH FOREVER .
  5. Hi pal contact Roger Banks (on here ) he gets a lot of Canadian sides , getting more & desirable with collectors me thinks
  6. I've just retired too, had enough of this rat race. No way can I afford to buy rare soul soul 45's . I'm amazed at the prices people are prepared to pay for none essential items in these troubled times. I do pick up the odd original 60/ 70's Lp , but with record shops & fairs shut not so often. Bought 2 off Roger Banks recently , but even these are going up in price beyond my reach, finally acquired Dave Godin's deep soul treasures vol. 4& 5 , oh that 'Detroit my home town' from Rob Moss record compilation, regards to all hope to see yous out about in the near future , Martin.
  7. One xmas prezzie sorted
  8. Hi mate that version is on a Kent cd from 1996 called CHESS CLUB RHYTHM & SOUL so it could be one of those tracks recovered from master tapes? Not sure if it was issued on 7inch vinyl .
  9. Oh no if things are'nt bad enough , so long gorgeous lady , for me a perfect soul voice .
  10. Sorry can.t help replying wot a double sided bargain !!

    Thanks to Trev & the team for a great nite , Mick J did his job as resident ,set the standard for guests to follow, nice to see Kev in form & not lost his sense of humour, & adding some gritty r&b tunes to his set, take another bow Avril you were awesome, great set of tunes played from the heart, not from a fat wallet , you keep on keeping on. Hope to see all again soon but who knows when ? Take care , Martin. x

  20. Without trying to bump the price up any one like to guess how much its gonna go for ? M- too . Should put a couple of quid on my 70tys press anyhow !
  21. Maybe tis a boot but to get one back in the day one would have been deep entrenched in the 'scene '.
