Whats Your Favourite Soul Concert Ever?
Edwin Starr,first time I saw him at Tiffanies Durdham Down, Bristol 1975, and Kings Hall Stoke when he sang acapella due to backing tape problems late 90's, and sadly the last time I saw him....Junior Walker 1977(8)? at Tiffanies Newport, when my faith in God was restored, having had to miss the Wigan performance due to "fund shortages", and coming across his pending performance in my "hometown" by pure quirk of fate (poster displayed in shop window)!Sam Dees,at the Canal Tavern Thorne late 80's,(awesome) and the Funk Brothers at the Manchester Apollo, a few years ago, all very special and memorable occasions that made the hair on the back of my neck stand up................. and made me feel both very humble and moreover grateful for being there!

What's Been Your Favourite Venue Of 2009 ?
For too numerous reasons to mention, particularly more recently, my Soulcial life has been temporarily curtailed, however I must say that the two venues to" float my boat" 2009 were namely Burnley, and Lifeline

Detroit Sleeves?
Hi Richard, I'm quite certain I've a similar stamped sleeve within my own collection, along with a personal greeting slip of similar design, although I was of the opinion that the relevance of such was purely on personal lines rather than commercially aimed.....I may however stand corrected?

Christmas Help For A Mate Of All Of Ours
Pete, There are some superb people on this site, who disclaim credit for their thoughtfulness and sincerity, for which this world would be a much better place if multiplied! Credit to you for recognising John's plight, whom I hold in very high regard and without realising the seriousness of his personal situation to such degree! I hope that your kind request has sufficient effect and has the desired outcome, so have replied accordingly....Best wishes wilxy

Dee And Flo, And The Dee-Ettes-This Or That-Dee Wolf Prod Inc
Acquired a copy today, from Des Parker and whilst he gave me some info with regard the vocals, and Dee Edwards etc. and having heard an (IMHO) inferior version, by a duet who've now slipped my mind (he also told me who the duet were, but alas I'm going senile ) Can anyone give me any information on the Dee Wolf Prod Inc label, and moreover its original whereabouts etc. TIA wilxy

Its Hard To Impress A Woman If You Don't Know Her
Ged, tell him to cut to the chaste, and insist he's an OVO guy, and would a 7 inch version of the snake do for starters, would also suggest he wears a hard hat and gumshield in case of a negative response

A few come to mind......Cochise- Paul Humphrey, Green door-Wynder K. Frogg, Witchunt-Dezro orchestra......OK in their day....but embarrassingly cringeworthy in wilxyworld nowadays

No Recent Northern Discovery Would Have Cut It At Wc
Great thread Russ, with some equally valued and respected input, and whilst individually many of the titles suggested are mouthwatering in their own right, rewind 35 years or so, and the mind boggles .Appreciating the playlists back then contained both good and some bad on the ear tuneage.....IMHO a "fly on the wall" back in time session would be the best way to gauge such rightful "debate" ...... best wilxy
