KURT HARRIS " EMPORER OF MY BABY'S HEART"... THE MUSIC PLAYS.. OH THE TRUMPETS START... I'M THE EMPEROR... OF MY BABYS HEART.... NOT SURE IF THAT'S THE RIGHT LYRICS, COS I'M ALWAYS SINGING THE ABOVE IN A PUB SINGER STYLEE..KEV.

on holiday in Dawlish Warren,Devon way, found a Gloria Jones LP in a charity shop around '78, album..Come go with me. NOTTM FOREST

don't know what the fuss is all about, does'nt matter does it.BTW have you seen the photos of the Attic nite on the front page? WHAT LOVELY CURTAINS , WONDER WHERE THE FABRIC'S FROM?

nice one Mark ,keep it going!!!!. request for Exits "under the streetlamp"?,,KEV

really like this thread, but methinks Rarestags might be going round the houses( and indeed avenues and alleyways) to make another point?

hi, a none soul record i've always liked for the lyrical content is Ken Dodds awesome toon "Happiness". Sing along now...... A penis,a penis, the greatest thing that i possess, I thank the Lord that i possess, More than my share of a penis.. i thank you......i'm here all week

Pete, it's an Attic spin at the moment, big toon for Dean. although its been "known " for a while,,Kev.

picked up my copy of "NO TIME FOR YOU" for pennies, best underated dancer they made IMHO,,Kev.

Youv'e got first hand experience of this , we're just starting out. Maybe we're not on the radar yet!!! see you on saturday nite,where i'm sure this subject will raise its head,,but lets rise above it over a few beers!!,,KEV.

if it's any help Winnie ,i still clap,when the mood takes me,regardless of who's around.But you're right,that sense of knowing or belonging is evident when the clappers start,,Kev.

Really enjoyed D Everard, specially Honey + bees, Grover Mitchell,Gracie Darnell. Didn't know the Tommy Hunt acetate though,,, Btw,, great to hear Towana + Total Destruction......Kev.

nowt wrong with a bit of competition,is there? It's a difficult one though, on one hand there maybe too many nites on, but if there were only two on a month within 30 miles,we'd be moanin( funny bunch are'nt we!!) . Maybe numbers might be down, cos of that Christmas thingy coming up,,saving up and that...one more thing nobody has a right to "claim a date" for a soul nite but surely no-one double books a nite on purpose to p**s off another venue,,THATS NOT ON!!

FIVE CROWNS...JUST A PART OF LIFE NOTHING EXPENSIVE HERE,BUT ALL GREAT SOUNDS..KEV.

PICKED ONE UP RECENTLY FOR £9.00, GIVING IT SOME PLAYS AT ATTIC.

first allnighter 74 at Wigan, but into the scene courtesy of influence from Tats Taylor while both at school.Remember him telling me at school to go to our local record shop (Daynes + Whites) , to get a copy of Jerry Butler " moody woman" that was in the bargain bin. I'd got no money so i "borrowed" the money from schoolmates, went after school to get a copy, must have been around '73.of course ive had a break as well ,but all in all 32 years.

just to keep this going,,,,,, in the early days( pre Wigan) , when t'Torch n t'Wheel were on, wasn't nearly everything played only a few years old?( shock,horror,,newie,,modern even?). Discuss away.............Kev.

Good way to spend a fiver, great tune , if you've got the "ears"

Blatant hi-jack alert!! Mark hope you bring it to Attic on 4th,,love it,,,Kev.

hi Martyn , do you know " i hurt on the other side" or "you'll always be in style" by Sidney Barnes,,much better IMHO,,Kev.

hi, love Edward Hamilton, nice midtempo. Been played at The Attic by an enterprising DJ (Dean) Does it ever get played out?....Kev.

hi,thought i'd put my bit in on this old debate. Northern is basically 60's, or at least it's roots are (debate that!) The Torch ,Wheel, Cats, etc,,played virtually new releases of the time (newies?),that have now become standard classics. Carstairs played at the Mecca wasn't more then 2 years old when played by Levine, but as they say ,you had to be there.

Hi Tony, this is one of mine and probably most peeps pet talking points at a nite out. IMO,Nites are more crowd driven than ever, crowds know what they want to hear. But in the early days to a certain extent, you got wot you got cos the DJ said so!!!. There's loads of nites on, so lots of "competition". Some dj's may think they have a reputation to lose, so much as they might want to play other stuff, it might not fit that nite/crowd. Maybe taking a risk with sounds is the way forward, just like the old days!!! After all where would the scene be without the risk takers,,,,Kev.
