Playing boots in the 21st Century...
Yes the night is to enjoy yourself!! and for me it is the combination of the music and what label it is on . This is the only music that I have loved since I was 12. And as a collector as well it is important to me to get the original if I can afford it. I'm not saying anyone else has to agree with me we all like different things. I wouldn't like to go for a nice meal and ask for a decent single grape shiraz and be served a house red . Since my 2 strokes I have forgotten so much about the music that it is like a new learning curve for me again but that's the way life is. Hope this helps Regards Mick

Start of Soul Events after Lockdown
My thoughts are the same. Due to health problems until I either know that the virus has gone away or I have had a vaccine I can't see me going to a niter for a long long time. Hopefully things will return to normal and I will be able to go to a niter again. The thought of knowing that I have already been to my last one is too much to contemplate

Playing boots in the 21st Century...
Off the top of my head i can't think of the labels but I bet if we were stood outside a niter chatting away we would. And at a niter it matters what its played on otherwise someone can buy 100 bootlegs and play things that someone else has took years to collect and it's that passion that matters

I can imagine the chin strokers naming 2 or 3 different labels like we do stood outside a niter freezing our tits off

Ha. Just streamed it through my tv and sound bar. Can certainly hear a deep grumbling noise. Would never in a million years known what it was.

The Greatest Dancer
I watched it with my son Kevin as after reading what people had put we never dreamed it could be that bad. But we were crying with laughter. It certainly made a grey Sunday morning a lot brighter. We are now saying that we like rare soul music to people and have no idea what northern soul is. Never mind KTF this was more WTF

These ever get a legit release?
I found my Mac Staten for 50p at a car boot sale in 1989 when it was still covered up as Bobby Angela 😁

Poll: Version Battle Look Into My Heart
When I suggested this to Mike I had been listening to some old cassettes and after listening to both it was almost a 50 50 vote but I just prefer Ree Flores although I would like to have either copy in my box

The Ideals Go Gorilla
Hi can anyone she'd any light on this unusual label release. As you can see mine is the one with label scan on discogs. But with a bit of care I have managed to peel the tape off which was covering the label. And it is credited to the ideals and music by the outlaws. Which I haven't seen on either of the label releases. I was just curious if it was just a local release before it got onto the US billboard charts and was released on Cortland and Satellite (different mix). Many thanks Mick

Competition - Northern Soul Alldayer Lp
For me it has to be the Leicester oddfellows alldayer may bank holiday 2019 as although I have been on the scene since 1980 I was asked to do a spot at my favourite venue.. I loved every minute of it and it was a big tick off my bucket list.😁 Greedy mick
