Had some great nights in there when it first opened. Wick Barrett used to DJ when I used to go.

Listen to OKAY FM and BBC Radio Leeds Northern Soul And Motown Show regularly https://www.okayfm.co.uk/home.html https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0251zv7

Good one Twoshoes Junior Walker and his sax........never fails for me

Got to say that last night's slot on the one show was............ ...........as useful to the scene as a chocolate fireguard

Absolutely Andy Jackie Wilson at 30 and Levi Stubbs at 48 ?????????? Get out o' town .......top ten positions in my humble opinion. Junior Walker and Jackie Lee missing there for me as well ......and not even a mention of Jimmy Ruffin??

No problem mister.......I'm just one of those old fossils from the 60's......you know what we're like

Don't be silly sir cumference........just because some of the music wasn't to my taste doesn't mean to say that it wasn't a crackin' venue. There is no doubt whatsoever that some wonderful classics came from the Casino. Just think it's an age thing.....I started off late 60's on the soul scene so my "tastes" tend to be a little bit different to the younger ones who started going to the Casino around mid 70's.

Think that's the problem I have with these sort of tunes if I'm being honest......can't get my head round pop music being classed as any genre of soul music. But that's just my own personal take on it.....probably an age thing (and I'm mighty bl**dy old !! haha )

Wouldn't class it as either to be honest.....it's just pop music to me that

......oh and add that Gary Lewis (son of Jerry Lewis) ....^My Hearts Symphony".......words fail me

Bobby Goldsboro......"It's Too Late" ........ how the hell that is classed as soul music I'll never know. Tunes like this one was probably one of the reasons I didn't last long at Wigan. Thankfully, there was some excellent classics came out of the Casino but there sure as hell was some utter cr*p as well.....just my own humble opinion here

Just listened to that track Bazza, and yeah, like that just as much as the Marvin Gaye one. Can't believe I've never heard either one of these before because "All For You" has been one of my favourite instrumentals for years and years. Soul music......can one person EVER get to hear every single track out there in their lifetime???

.......to come across something you've not heard before. Never knew that Marvin Gaye had done this vocal version of Earl van Dykes *All For You"......one of my favourite instrumentals. Like it

Hated this but it was definitely a girlie tune.......

That's brilliant.....well done all
