Me & the missus are thinking of attending a weekender and as I haven't been to one since the late seventies I'm not sure which one would best suit our taste in music. We go to a few local events that play mostly northern/motown/club classics etc so that sort of play list would be ideal. I'm not into the rare & underplayed stuff, and want to mostly hear sounds we might know so any advice would be welcomed. I live in Doncaster but willing to travel for a good event. ! Thanks Neal

Hi Rob, I have one of these, it may be a couple of days before I can find it and confirm the condition if your still looking by then ? Neal.

Yes, leeds, leeds,Leeds better known as " marching on together" was the flip side to leeds United 1972 FA cup final song. Nice one les reed.

Would have been about 1975 when some of the older lads started to play some northern at the youth club I went to. Also had an older brother who was into the four tops/temptations/sam cooke so it was one step further for me into the northern arena. Then started to go to the local working mens club every Tuesday with a bunch of mates which played mainly northern and got to know the tunes Happy days !! Neal

If that's what you wanted - Frankie beverly Nothing can Compare to you - Velvet satins Pretty much some up why I love this music ! Neal.

Sent a valuable 45 to a buyer in Germany recently and using the royal mail tracker it was showing in Lochowo which is in central Poland, then it went further into Poland to another depot at Strickow and twice more between these 2 places. ( good job I packaged it up robustly ) Royal mail said they couldn't help until it is over a month but I sent an email to German delivery partner . They replied and record got to destination 2 days later only for it to be undelivered and held !! Buyer finally got the record 3 weeks later and all ok thank god Royal mail were frigging useless.

Most I've paid was a tenner for Frankie beverly if that's what you wanted on sassy in 1977 at lilleshall near the Welsh border where the England team used to train ( I was there on a weeks table tennis coaching ) Found the lad I bought it off and his mates rummaging through our rooms the next day looking for it ( got sent home early for what happened to them ) Still got the record and in great condition Neal

Ha ha, love it !

I'm from Donny but only a bairn in the 60s but the attic changed names a few times in the 70s and was known as the club where the best music was played. There were others that played more Mod & club stuff like the Top Rank and in the late seventies the " outlook " and " kings head " had soul nights . My top donny northern club ( apart from Toll-bar youthie ) was the Bentley comrades club where I heard the latest tunes and cut my teeth on the dance floor. Still can't remember who the DJ was but bought most of my records there ! Neal

Hi there, Could I have : Esther Phillips poets Brenda & tabulations concept nine thanks Neal
