I used to play this regularly at the Sheridans allniters, but never really took off back then. i have an issue and a demo. I'll see which is best and put the lesser condition one up for sale. Phil

RIP Pete.

Hinckley ?

I meant 4 was Bradford Queens Hall and 5 Bensons. Can't count

I think 3 is Bradford Queens Hall and 4 may be Bensons?

Blimey! I sold one for £40 earlier this year.

Nah. Just sooner

Ruby Andrews - Just Loving You I've had 25 count boxes on this twice

If my memory serves correctly you are right. Was pretty massive though by 1980

never backwards at coming forwards was Mr Lawson

The "only" positive thing I can say is that the venue looked a lot like the casino. particularly the "This England" bits

Excellent! Remember them at the time, think I've still got Issue 1 somewhere. In which I'm proud to feature in two of the charts - "Best Downers" and "People Who Know Nothing About Records" Quality!

I agree. I used to play this at Bradford Bensons Bier keller soul nights back as early as 1984 and have played it from time to time ever since. Just because a record is now in vogue doesn't mean it isn't / wasn't known or played before.

I agree. In short - Northern Soul!

The recent (well many years now) trend of promoting sub-genres has been a very negative thing IMO, and has been nothing but divisive. As Barry said bitd it was all just Northern.Northen Soul is a genre whther some people like it or not. Yes it is (or more probably was) a dance scene but it was always a genre too. As in whenever asked what music I was into I would, and still do, proudly say Northern Soul. Phil

Anything on this weekend? Phil

Its a buyers market. You sold your records for what someone was willing to pay, and you must have been happy with the deal or you wouldn't have done it. There are people out there with the funds to part with whatever it takes to get the record that they want. I myself have on occasion paid over the odds for tunes I really, really wanted and I'm not the only one.
