Gaz Slightly off topic sorry? I agree there's so much info/stories out there that never get told?Couldn't we put together some sort of questionnaire that would tease some of those hidden facts out into the light?The trick would be to get the right questions of course..........so I'll leave that to others who actually think about things other then records & beer Cheers Martyn

Emmm piggie bank been raided David.......think you are getting far too much pocket money Great record in great nick......I'm jealous Cheers Martyn

Kev beat me to it Cheers Martyn

Dave The "Up Front" ones........sorry that's another thread Cheers Martyn

Kev That's a first if Neil could a word in Cheers Martyn

Such a shock,Joe was a proper soul man. Condolences to all his family & friends. Martyn & Lynn

Nev Definitely liquid in the veins today...........but of the Stella variety Cheers Martyn

Agree with Dave,not a lot wrong with it but it's a bit "Nice" for me,I'm more of a Kindly Shepherds kinda guy. Melody Kings-He's Alright is my fave Gospel tune at the moment. Cheers Martyn

Pete Without a doubt they are all northern tunes to me,even Ral Donner The point I was trying to make was all sorts of genres make up "Northern" & it's no different today. Cheers Martyn

So Pete if it was advertised as Northern Soul night you would expect to hear? NF Porter-Keep on keeping on........funk Sergio Mendes-Love Music.........Latin Peggy March-If You Loved Me.....white pop The Crow-Your Autumn Of Tomorrow.....rock Ral Donner-Don't Let Him Slip Away.....just shit The scenes has always played different stuff why should it be different now. Up Front for me means places/dj's that are trying to play something other then the main tunes that have been hammered over the years.This means the music evolves over the years & has fazes where a certain type of tune will have it's day,at the moment it's the funkier tunes a few years back it had an R n B feel. I want to hear new stuff & I'll decide if I think it's "Northern" & I don't need anyone to tell me if it is or it isn't? Cheers Martyn

Ian There must be a book in there surely Cheers Martyn

Ian Can you remember any of the prices you either bought them for or sold them for please? I understand that might be asking too much after 40 years Cheers Martyn

Ian WOW!! What a list. £2,500 =23,291.73 in today's money Calculator is here if you want to have a play.......... https://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/bills/article-1633409/Historic-inflation-calculator-value-money-changed-1900.html Cheers Martyn

Ebonistic – Is it good to you – Scream.........record of the night for me,sounded brilliant out loud. Cheers Martyn

Ian Wasn't the reason it never made cult status like it should have was because it was booted before it had a chance to achieve the heights it should have at The Mecca??? Great to see people showing interest in it a bit more these days,maybe one of those that slipped through the net first time round might come back & become the monster it deserves to be. One of the few tunes I think the inst is as good as the vocal? Cheers Martyn

Can anyone help please.............. Did anyone pick my legs up a couple of years back I seem to have mislaid mine?Got up to dance last night & lasted 3/4 of a record as these things I've got at the moment that stop my arse dragging on the floor(no comments please ) aren't mine because they don't do as they are told?? Cheers Martyn

I'll watch this with great anticipation......let the blood bath begin Can't wait for Pete's comments on some of the tunes suggested My first helpful suggestion would be "none top 500 tunes" Cheers Martyn

Just missing "pissed" at the end of his excuse for bad photo Cheers Martyn

The inst B side of Contemplations is brilliant imo. Cheers Martyn

Neil I'm in Pete's gang with this & I was at Cleggy when Maxine was on & I wasn't spellbound I'm afraid. Cheers Martyn

When I was a lad it was said that he appeared at The Vikings pub in Goole or is this just an urban myth? Cheers Martyn
