Chalky, I can’t praise you highly enough for this show . Stafford and this was some of my peak Nighter times . The 60s newies scene was instrumental in the development of soul music evolution. this programme was like an education..I loved every second of it . Going to listen again …. Thanks and keep up the good work 🙏🙌

great story...thanks for sharing....

Over 100 records for only £200 including standard postage & packing These are a good slice of funk but also a decent chunk of Northern with a few R&B and Latin tracks All US originals. Condition are all VG+ and NM. I have played them all over the years and checked them recently. Wide range of labels (including) ABC King MGM RCA Minit St Lawrence including many niche original US funk labels Artists include Ruby Andrews, The Tams, Impressions, Marva Josie etc. Brilliant value - it's a bargain pack. Only one pack - so when it's gone it is gone.. NOTE: This offer is standard postage , so If you want next day insured P&P - add £22 quid.

Fontella Bass....Leaving the choice for you..

been checking this out...wonderful summer listening. cheers

I collected the Big Wheel label (clue is in the username )...have only two of them on white demos...

Just read this thread....40 + miles walk for a nighter...that is a great little story - Respect!

fair enough....just came over a bit of "who are ya?" 😉 👍

the guy is just asking for help with a cover photo for now...hopefully people continue to try to help.. I guess time will tell on the content and quality of the book, or the some of those questions may be answered when the publicity for the books emerges....

fantastic article...great read!

Looked pretty decent on this clip...from the show

I've got tickets for this one too Steve and Lamont Dozier in our favourite venue :-) . Hope to see you there.

Apologies if posted but first I've seen n this...should be a great gig..

I went to a couple of live act events that year....may have been the other..but I had logged these photos as Ric Tic revue..perhaps someone else can help identify the artists and event then..cheers

pretty sure it was - only time I saw them live...

Found an old album of pics recently...pretty sure these were from Hinckley Ric Tic Review... Enjoy!

I'm heading down from Edinburgh to this one...too good an opportunity to miss...frankly, he could sit in a chair and chat all night I wouldn't care...will be magic to hear him whatever he does..

isn't that one of the wonders of London though...sometimes, the music options are just world class!...Mavis was superb....and Union Chapel returns out to be an outstanding venue.... loved it!

need one ticket for tomorrow's Union Chapel Mavis Staples Gig..Two of us travelling from Edinburgh - and through a long story - we only have one ticket..Does any kind soul out there, have a spare ticket? Any help would be greatly appreciated Cheers

Hope this is OK, here's a link to my sale of a few old skool Northern Magazines for sale..from late 70s and early/mid 80s Including an original copy of Pete Lawson's "Current State of Norther Soul" article in Jock O'Connor's "Jock's view of Soul" mag..and a couple of early "Shades of Soul" mags eBay sale of a few Northern Soul Mags from late 70s/Mid 80s PM me if you want any details.. Cheers!

Thanks for this summary - really important points.... well worth highlighting this

it's a reissue - says so in the description....

Chalky, thanks for that wonderful read...You've actually covered my era in Soul..I missed the Casino..was a little but young, and didn't make it..so my starting time was events such as Rotherham, Hinckley etc...I remember the Ric Tic Revue so well - still have some pictures...Stafford was tops for me. We used to drive down from Edinburgh every two weeks - sometimes bus, usually car. The buzz and excitement of the "new" music at the time was thrilling. Shouts was the Scottish "Stafford" I guess...great set of local DJ's ...An honourable mention needs to go to their forerunner, the Glenrothes (Thornton) nighters ran by the Walls brothers..they kept soul alive in Scotland until the Shotts nighters came around. It came full circle for me recently when I went to the recent Thorley event in Crew "spirit: all nighter...again, lots of good music...keep on writing ! magic stuff!
