:dance: definately - think sleep is a waste of time anyways Karen

Prefer niters in the summer months - Great feel good factor travelling to venue on a summers eve - can take a breather outside (still warm) - dancing at 4.30 am with daylight appearing through curtains - but best of all when you leave it's daylight....... Dunno what age got to do with anything - I'm in my 40's ( you didn't hear that) dance quite a bit and have still have energy next day Think it's all in the mind meself...... Steve - won't spill the beans bout what you got upto when you were a wee lad.. see you at Middleton... is Tracey - Tony & Sharon going ? Karen

Wouldn't have a prob with this being played - course it's acceptable - it's what modern souls all about ain't it ............... Get fed up with people having tunnel vision on the soul scene Soon as I played it - heard it before - think it must have been at a mate's house - he's heavily into Modern... Good tune Col Karen

Took a long while for me to get a copy of this - finally managed to get it from a dealer in America who found it after searching through cases and cases they had in cellar - paid next to nothing for it - forced to sell it couple of years back. Looked out for it over last 6 months but not seen one - hope your lucky. Karen

Same person that produced the video ("The Northern Soul Story" 2001) Possibly the same person who wanted to interview women at Cleethorpes - for a female view on northern soul Ok then who is it ? Whoever they turn out to be - if this is for real they didn't have a true understanding of the scene and certainly didn't know what they were talking about - using the term "we" gives the impression others thought the same way Btw can't find anything on the video! Karen

Hanging a bit low there Joan....... Karen

Driving with windows down - cd player full on bringing "Bobby Guitar Wood - Its mighty nice to know" & "Little Johnny Hamilton - Oh how I love you" - to my ears makes me smile on a summer's day Karen

Most definately not to all three statements. To be honest never entered my head in the 30 yrs I've been involved with the music. Never pretend to be anything other than myself - always danced and still do by expressing my passion and feel for the music through dance - which comes from my heart and soul and nothing else. In answer to the question - never thought anyone on the scene pretended to be black and Northern soul has never been about pretending to be black. No way I could ever pretend to sing as though black - anyone heard my attempts at singing will verify that - I'm tone deaf Karen

My Daughters favourite - she's got to the age of 14, after living eating & breathing Northern since birth and she only likes 2 records - R L - Chills & Fever - has her own copy, and Tony & the Showmen - Try love (dosen't have a copy of that though) Soundclip if it works and ok with Mike.... Karen

They Say - Rodge Martin - Dot They Say you found a new baby - Susan Rewis - Columbia Love both version's danced a lot to Susan Rewis in past - not heard Rodge Martin version played out............ Can't put sound clips up at mo till further info from Mike - but can listen and compare Rodge Martin on J Manships and I put sound clip up of Susan Rewis on RSF under R & B section. What do you think...... Karen

Wish I had some spare cash I'd buy Joe Douglas - Crazy Things. Superb record. Karen

A couple more excellent tunes...... ..IMO Little Florine - Miss you so - Excello Sunny & the Sunliners - Trick bag - Tear Drop Karen

Forced to sell a couple of years back.. .. don't ask.... but getting them back or new ones slowly but surely This was my copy think I sold it for £120..... Karen

Did get a few spins at Holgate WMC York, when I ran it - also sometimes at Manhatten Harrogate. Great record & dancer Karen

Hi Juddy, a few of my fav's already mentioned and can highly recommend are: Merle Spears (amazing) - Barbara Lynne - Ray Agee - Peppermint Harris - Ted Taylor - Little John - Gwen Davis - Reatha Reese ( don't class as r n b but awesome). A few from me ............. Dolly Lyonn - Palm of your hand / Little Johnny Taylor - Zig Zag Lightning / Lenis guess - Working for my baby Karen

All in the mind Carole Seen you at 7.30 am shimmering on down, doing your stuff on the dance floor legs and arms fully co-ordinated See you a wk on Saturday (r u dressing up too) Kaz

Too right - very funny and clever defo (great clue) didn't help me though - noticed "Grass", but was unable to come up with anything on that one. Never guessed "Jesse James" - didn't sound anything like - but as you said Which J J ! Got "Falling Star", right although title wasn't that hard was it.......... How about another.... Karen

Think I remember who you are now, have good memories from the Talbot, small but very atmospheric - went to the Conservative too when you moved venues - fabulous dance floor, had good nites there too, just didn't seem to have the same feel. Corner cafe only went once or twice. Adey ran the corner cafe with Mick B didn't he? Sounds like Jinxy's ok - I'm glad, last time I saw him was at Melodies and he and Diane had split up. Karen

Need to clarify if this is Mr Bowman (TopsoulCat) - If so which one? Steve maybe.... Please put me out of my misery.... Hope not my v v soon to be, messing me about ex husband.......... Kaz

Hope the prob replying on post's sorted - and that colour thingy - can't have my loyalty to the "Chalkette" society questioned, can I.... Quit's. Kaz

Agree hate changing dancing shoes, last pair I could dance in the "floaty" style ken mentioned, can't managed that style at all in new shoes ( known as Lesbian shoes by some ) New shoes = new dance style Karen
