Fantastic record - used to own one of these in the 80's. Price has really crept up. Pete

I really didn't like the 60's newies mafia sound - Keb and Guy. Don't tell anyone but I used to refer to them as Guy Dustbin and Keb Garbage!

I guess only some of them were known by the "northern" soul scene at the time. Perhaps random things that dj's became aware of. I'm not aware of anyone talking about the US garage scene back in the day. Not many people would argue with Keb. LOL

It is an interesting point. Never a fan of this sort of stuff, it has nothing to do with soul music. Its just a frenetic beat that was lapped up by the 95% of the all niter scene back then who were off their heads on amphetamines - they'd dance to anything. Orroible stuff - the records not the drug, and probably in good company with other rubbish which was played such as this

It has some nice lyrics and I always liked it. It is a bit formulaic and plonk plonk. Was a big record at Clifton Hall and Cleethorpes Winter Gardens. Pete

Great photo's again chaps. I'm reviewing them whilst Ace is vigorously chewing his new toy far too close to my groin! Ouch!

It was all part of the paranoia. Having said that, we were involved in a car crash travelling back to Mablethorpe from Clifton Hall in Rotherham. Unfortunately the other car was being driven by the Chief Constable of Lincolnshire police. It seemed like half of the police force attended the accident and whilst being put into two ambulances the old bill were of the belief that we were off our heads and tried to interrogate us about where we got drugs from. We were sent to hospital for check ups and the old bill nicked us - m,e and my mate were in a hospital bed at the time, but were made to get out and go down to the nick We were then interrogated and bullied for about four hours until my mates dad turned up. My mate ended up with a permanently damaged leg and still has a limp. He sued the police and won damages. He also got a new nick name - Raspberry Ripple, Raspberry for short - cripple. Funny that. Pete

Was never scared at any all nighter. However, sitting in a cafe or motorway services was terrible. Paranoid as hell thinking everyone was looking at me and some of them were thew squad.

Just got mine - looks fab. Limited edition number 600.

Good post mate. P

Its all about political choices - and we know which party makes which choices. I really do despair at times, it saddens me so much, yet I remain resilient because there is a job to do, and my team achieve some great things. My new rescue dog Ace is proving to be great therapy, and great company.

Keep the faith Johnny!

Do yer like modern Mick?
