50 Shades

Hi, looking for Goldmine cd Northern Soul at Ritz Brighouse in new or close condition, as it’s a present. PM for reply thanks Kev.

Mine arrived today, nice quality tee’s. Fathers Day pressie sorted. cheers Kev.

PM sent

Look out for the James Conwell (Exits) Album (if you can get a decent copy), it's bloody awesome. Shoeshine Boy, Sundown & Gotta have money on the lp along with other Exits numbers not on 45's Just seen it's an original post from 2006 - Derrrrrrrrrr!!! Cheers Kev.

Sent Pm regards Kev.

Why the confusion, anyone that bought the sealed LP with 7" will have the right reissue copy. Scratched matrix.

Sent PM. regards Kev.

I wonder how it went down at the catacombs, as to me it would have been a record ahead of it's time in the early 70's with that kind of arrangement, perhaps this was the reason it was never released when it was originally recorded, it just did'nt fit with the musical style of 60's motown. It's a fantastic 'summer' song, I love it.

Seems to be an explanation on discogs. Whether that would make it right I would not know, not being a TM collector.

Only saw 1 live soul act 2015, but it was a blinder - Ann Sexton, Wilton, November. The DJ spots were top draw as well, not yer usual Same old Same old.

First time in 10 years not spending Christmas & New Year in Tenerife, oh well I'll get over it tomorrow, so wish a Feliz Navidad y feliz año nuevo to each and everyone.

Just thought I would post this local paper review of the recent Wilton gig, hope that's ok with anyone that's mentioned. Just to add the reviewer is a local author/historian, so not your typical gig reviewer. Lastly, yeah it was all he says and probably more, Kev.

18 Years - Eeh ba gum ... That's Champion

On a lighter note, I don't recall anyone in the film dancing in Calipers ?

Great names indeed Kev, (although not quite upto 80's standards). Been reading through some of it, some reflective and apt quotes on Cilla Black. Also liked the comment from a club goer about the club expanding the floor space to capitalise on the growing popularity of merseybeat, and in doing so killed the cellar club atmosphere, so he and probably many others switched to the smaller cavern club.

Some interesting info on this webpage, https://www.rickresource.com/irondoorclub/irondoorclub.html seems more R & R to RnB Like the bit at the bottom about a 12hr All Night gig in 1961.

A personal favourite is - The Isleys, my love is your love tammi & marvin - oh how I'd miss you - understated class early Temps - pre david ruffin, I think - I want a love I can see - great vocal

You really can't trust a man, who pretends he's a woman, has an unkept beard and worse of all buys a large book on Northern Soul.

Wondered that myself so checked the flyer, ( in their words not mine ) You get .... Drum roll ...., a glass of fizz, get to sit near the stage and a pizza to share ... presumably with the digital DJ, cos he won't be doing owt else !

Just a bunch of fellas from the poor side of town Under the streetlamp is the happiness we found In a neighbourhood where most every things rundown So all we've got to make it to the brighter side of town

Mr Blobby was in reference to another post about a custard factory - I always thought Mr Blobby and Custard went together, never mind, I thought it was funny Anyhow Good luck to all involved (especially the money men/women) if there is anything that is making good bucks today it's entertainment. ( your own clothing line though, will be the kiss of death )

Surprised no ones thought of hiring Columbo to solve this mystery

Me too, especially if Mr Blobby is promoting it. Gimmicks, Glitterballs and NS sounds like a hoot .... .... for folk who won't give a Txss.

Am sure it's obvious but if you are looking on a tablet make sure screen lock is on and view right way round. Better still, see next post !
