My mate, Ped, aka "Johnny two shirts" hates it when the DJ talks over the track. So l do the promos and requests, deds, etc quickly in between. Keep 'em dancin'.

Sad. I only played a birthday shout-out for her last week (10th.) We are reaching the end of an era... a wonderful musical era.😥

Mili Vanilli on Soul Train comes to mind. (The scandal of lip sync.)

Will they be live on TOTP? (Joke) Now, just discussing, as we're too busy dancing when we're out. Live gigs is where the money isso l guess most popular genres will likely abstain? To me only the NS genre can do this as the 60s stuff we love is past performing be it age or passing and it's the 45s we love. This vid is pretty new. lf you fancy a go at it just visit one of the many apps online, put in a few lyrics and a genre and see what comes out. Then all you need is a NS sounding name...Solomon & the Berks? (No offence) Peter Kay would have a ball with this. Tin hat is firmly in place. 🤣

As teenagers early 70s we were learning to dance to amazing soul records whose titles we could only guess and could only hear at the do. We copied the moves off the best. We didn't have alcohol to caress. We were hungry for dancing. Nowadays we still attend the soul nights, indeed dj-ing when asked, but now nights are fewer. And there's alcohol to distract. My knees are beginning to moan at me when l crouch to fill the woodburner affecting dancing. Any record you could wish to hear is on youtube or internet radio shows, of which I do two. Covid and lockdown certainly changed the social world. The Northern Soul movie ten years ago sparked a revival with a new generation but, as with us in the 70s, they are now couples moving on with their lives. Ktf... the music will last forever coz it's amazing. There's always someone with amazing energy who will save it. AM

I seem to remember the movie Northern Soul 2014 regenerating the scene and helping create Wigan young souls up at Highfield. A whole new generation of hungry, record searching, dancing younghearts... a way of life. We are lucky...ktf

At least you knew about it. Dozy me, full of the joys of Art at St Martins, totally missed the opportunity and I was in the West End for 4 years 1990-94. I'll get to 100 club one day. Anyway, thanks for a great post. Really enjoyed it.

Great news. I have many tales re record deliveries from left on step (some) then nicked to pushed through open window dropping 2.5m onto floor after just missing crystal vase on window sill, slotted under adjacent shared ginnel door (ready for stepping on) and slotted into the gap between door and casing in full view of passers by. And to the wrong neighbour never to be seen again. Ah never mind. Not a 2g 7" rarity thankfully. 🎶💃🕺
