Barry

Here's a few from me right now:

Tavasco - 'Love's Trying To Get A Hold Of Me'

Invisible Mans Band - 'Really Wanna See You'

Bobby Jonz -'Thought You Were Loving Me'

I've posted some old listings from the basement at Bradford on here in the past and I was wondering if anyone on here took a copy of them at all, as the copies on my pc appear to have been eaten?

I'm looking for the large end of year listing from 1990/91 if possible, it's about 4/5 pages long.

Cheers

About £600+ I shouldn't wonder...

Oh well.

does it play frank wilson?

No, but it shakes it's head and explodes if you play Coffee's - 'Casanova'.

I remember having an LP ('Modern Times' was it?) at the time with it on, it'll be about somewhere, it was a cracking comp.

Anyone have a track-listing?

did anybody on here win a nodding buster seen as your all such avid watchers of pog.

I won the rarer 'Nodding Russ' as it happens.

Just been flicking through the threads and been transported back to Rotherham sometime upon hearing this beautiful slab of jazzy, summery soul - and now I want it - how much should I be expecting to part with?

The Nodding Buster Tombola topped off the full Northern surrealism of it all. Genius.

Shouldn't we have some perspective?

While Stockport has got a mention:

IMO the girls looked no more or less embarrassing than any other wearer of circle skirts. I thought you was of the 'wear what you like' school of thought Dawn?

You see I loved the fcs and pastie look - that was a soulie bird to me.

I keep reading posts tinged with embarassment and apology!?

Why?

You know what you are, where you're from, how deep it runs - don't you?

Who exactly are you worried about?

Paul O'Grady's target audience maybe (which it appears is a great deal of this board)?

Use much of that in Warrington do they Barry

Nice avatar BTW but prefered no 3

It's called 'irony' Cunnie.

And I'm sticking with No.2 son.

(No.2's have always been close to my heart)

Really don't believe its about being positive or negative, just accuracy.

This show didn't have it.

In a documentary maybe, this was The Paul O'Grady Show.

Again, apologies if this is a repeat post but isn't this just an odd idea?

i agree with you Dawn, too much negativity on this site, no one ever says anything positive about anything

That's a bit negative innit mate?

Hadnt noticed Barry, but have just posted my views on the series in a new topic in Freebasing. I LOVE it!

Check it out, it's lifted my head up and pointed it telly side all week.

Oh yes Barry, "Stockport Alfie" doncha know

Cheers Paul

Well bugger me, you live and learn.

How much would I pay for the 'That's When I need You' boot these days?:

It was possibly my first purchase (three for a quid) at an all nighter and has since, as they do, disappeared.

(Sorry for hi jacking your thread mate)

also noticed its filmed in stockport

I didn't realise Alfie was from Stockport.

HUH ?

It's NYC street talk for 'I agree with your view'!

No TV show or film would be able to show Northern Soul in all it's true colours because it means so many different things to so many people you would not be able to get the true essence of soul onto film. No matter how it was portrayed to a few people it would be wrong because it is not how they see it or feel it and that is the main problem, we all see it as something different. Soul is a feeling and that is something that can not be shown the passion can not be caught on camera no matter how good the actor. So lets all be mates again and stop ribbing people for doing what felt right to them. If the world was full of peps who all felt and thought the same imagine having to stand outside the same venue as everyone else begging to be let in to have just a minute on the dance floor we would all be much sadder people than we are now.

Love you all you make my life brighter but without the music life would be a darker place xXx

WORD!!

That's all very good, but me Mam loved it.

Has anyone else noticed the music on the adverts for 'Sunshine'?

The first three guitar notes as the clip starts are the exact opening guitar notes of Alfie Davidson's 'LISB'.

A perfect SS thread to POG's reminiscences.

It could not have been done in any other manner than the manner within which it was done, surely you must be able to see that?

If you were embarrassed by it, then you're not cut of the right cloth yet, if you felt that you were being portrayed as uncool, then you probably are.

I actually think it was quite a ground-breaking piece given the studio audience, demographic etc.

Me Mam text me, as she had to put up with my addled state after Wigan - and she loved it.

Which surely, was the point.
