BBC1 Our Lives - Soul Boy - Northern Soul Related Documentary
What a little gem. Both the programme and Little Anthony . Take my hat off to his mentor as well, lovely relationship they had built. Love the scene in the shop where his care-worker had found a postcard with the meaning of the name Anthony and is reading it to him , while Anthony looks like he’s dropped a handful of bombers and is taking no notice , he just wants to dance . Long may Little Anthony rule, and hope those new shoes see many a floor over the years to come. Well done everyone who helped make that lovely short film .

COMPLETE WIGAN CASINO ENTRY TICKET
Nope - maybe not Sir . But it would be good to see a pic .. then others may get an idea of what we are talking about and I know there’s a couple of other old Soulies on here that may make you an offer . I always asked if I could have my other half back .. even if it was put aside and given back later on .. only worked once .

Memrobillia Wanted !!
Got stuff lying in draws / tins / under the bed or in the loft ? I know only too well that some would find it impossible to let go of the memories and items that make up our past. But if your not that attached or find that now is the time to let things go ... then I’m a long time collector of everything Soul related. Be it flyers / patches / posters / membership cards / entry tickets ... whatever it is , it could be turned into money . Also if you are a collector yourself, I have lots of doubles and spares to swap , so please ask away . Mainly into 70’s - 80’s early Northern Soul memrobillia, but anything considered . stevegods@hotmail.co.uk Or PM on here . Happy Easter to all and stay safe 🙏

Can’t get more Soul than Frankie
Daved , Not sure where you bought your Jill Scott tickets from, as mine where £47 for the Friday .. from Ticketmaster .. never buy from secondary sites like Seatwave, StubHub and viagogo ... all of them are a rip off , so stay away !! Stanley Clarke - Cameo - Soul ll Soul added to the Saturday at Innervisions . with more to come . Also camping at LoveSupreme again this year . Always a great little festival with some great acts and The Roots playing this year. Friday night DJ spot in the tent is always a great Soul night.

Can’t get more Soul than Frankie
First time over here for 12 years and I saw that gig at the 02 indigo and remember it like it was yesterday. He may well be 73 but this man won’t disappoint. Bought my tickets today and with seeing Jill Scott the night before at the Indigo it proves to be a very soulful weekend. It may just be your last chance to get see him. “ Joy and Pain “

Northern Soul Pool Party??
SlipKnot - now there’s a change from Northern Len ... did you wear a mask and get in the Mosh pit ... Went to see Norman Connors - with Lonnie Liston Smith and should have been Ronnie Laws at the Indigo on Friday night - very poor ... although the Starship Orchestra where good and Lonnie held his own .. all getting old I guess . There was a guy there I nearly decked as he kept tokin on a Vape right in front of us .. and never stopped talking all the way through the gig ..
