Is There Any Northern Soul Nights On This Weekend In Glasgow
Nothing this weekend.Most soul nights are ALL on the last Saturday of the month.Pineapple soul is generally the 2nd Saturday of the month in Greenock but wasn't on this month but is having a night on 23rd of this month I think a charity night in support of a regular. 1st sat of month ad lib in Glasgow,third sat of the month liquor shack in shawlands.every 2nd month sowl bowl is on in the west end on the last sat of of the month.my personal favourite is pineapple soul in Greenock which always has records iv never heard before and has a really friendly vibe.also southside soul and blacktracking on alternate last sat of the month and I think magic roundabout in Bellshill on last sat of the month.also blackfriers and devine both in Glasgow and also last sat of the month.Hope this is of some help to you in the future.i believe there are a couple more soul nights in Glasgow . all the best. geo.

Detroit 67 - £3 in "the works"
Both his books are now in fop at £3 each or both for £5. You should be wearing a mask getting them for that price. I think the " uninformed" broadcaster may have his finger on a pulse somewhere, what with the Detroit movie coming out. Looking forward to his next book which is a bit of a first for me regarding non fiction. I did get the Little Richard biography recently if anyone is keen on paying the ebay price for it.lol Geo

Stompers vs Bangers. What's the difference?
Just to be pedantic,generally in scotland we call sausages sausages .the sausages most british people call bangers we call links..... This is due to our invention of square sliced sausages. Folk will travel miles for the best square slice.... Next week What scots deep fry and eat....! A roll on sausage and potatoe scone with an egg is bangin A top uptempo tune is a stomper Geo

News: Young Soul Rebels - Book Review
After giving up on getting the cheaper version decided to splash out to celebrate my first northern record purchase on wed with the book. finished it yesterday and as someone not from the scene Finally there is an explanation of the schism on the scene that isn't just a description of mecca versus Wigan but a well explained description of oldies upfront etc. I also found it refreshing that the seventies were truly depicted regarding the randomness of violence that seems to be getting airbrushed from some misty eyed memories of the era. I found one typo and the first mention of one of my favourite books of all time album sulphate. I have started flicking through it already looking for info to memorise so although I can never agree with the author on the best football team in Scotland I will be enjoying this book for a long time and no one will be getting a borrow..

Northern/Rare soul cassettes give away
cant pm as just joined but I would be delighted to take some of these. my car is pre war and takes cassettes and as I drive an hour each way for work I would love some new sounds as I have got about 20 comp cds on my phone and finding it hard to get ones with unknown tunes to me. geo
