    I think It's great to see the young uns getting into it. 

    It would be a waste if it died out with all us older bods. And it's also testament to how good the scene is (not to mention the music) to still be going strong after 40+ years. 

    IMO Lev has done more than anyone to promote it to the next generation. 

    And I also think it's healthy that the next generation have their own spin on it and do it their way, rather than just mirroring what had been done before. 

    I take my hat off to the girl... 

    Totally agree!

    Really shocked when I learned on Facebook of Winnie's passing. First got to know him back in the days of KTF forum, These Old Shoes and the Brighton Sunday alldayers. Last saw him at Cleethorpes last year when we chatted and exchanged grandad experiences. Such a nice bloke and I think, fair to say, one of the most respected faces on the NS scene.

    Deepest sympathies to all his family - R.I.P. Winston

    thanks we have allways tried to play a good mix of atb  but most seem to want just northern 

     

    I know what you mean Lawrence! I, personally, would always prefer to hear atb but it seems a lot of the folks that go out nowadays only want to hear classic oldies and not interested in hearing anything else 😪

    Watch this on silence and I wouldn’t have believed they were dancing to Epitome of Sound, the guy in the middle especially.

    Don’t get me wrong they got the moves but they aren’t dancing, just doing tricks.  There used to be a time and a place to do the spins and tricks in a record but now it is all the way through and totally out of rhythm to the record in question. 

    I know its a dance comp but give me a proper dancer with good footwork who does the tricks and spins in the breaks and appropriate places or preferably just one with classy footwork  

    As I said great at the tricks as are a lot but they ain ‘t dancing anymore. 

    So right Chalky, couldn't agree more! Some of the acrobatics are totally out of context with the music. That's why I always like watching the best shufflers where it's all about the foot work and usually in time with the music 😉

    I’ve had that same experience in Florida on the three occasions I’ve been there looking, not allot about I’m afraid, If you can get to Fort Lauderdale you will start to find more, quite a few places to look there 

    buena suerte Señor

    I looked there a few years ago Mal. I found and visited only one record shop and guess what there sat boldly on the counter was a John Manship guide! null

    Same record on Wilkerr on a 12 although Butch has a very rare 7.

    Cheers Chalky :thumbup:

    The one on Willkerr I think you are referring to is titled "Keep Me Dancing" by True image - feel free to correct me if I'm wrong :yes:. Same song but inferior to the Ike Strong version (IMHO)!

    Yes I think it was Richard at last days of Wigan.  It was also a massive record for him, and others, at Clifton Hall. It was one of those modern anthems for me back then. I don’t think it’s rare but it doesn’t come up often - I don’t yhink you’ll get one for less than £200.

    Youre calling out some good records Stubbsy.

    Cheers mate :thumbup:

    Speaking of modern anthem it reminds me a lot of Curtis "How Can I tell Her"!

    Just had a look on Popsike - last genuine one went for £335 May last year. Before then varies in price so would imagine you're right about the not get one for less than £200. Strikes me that it's one of those that, although not massively expensive in the bigger scheme of things, will be a hard on to find.

    Bloody hell, there's one on Popsike that is clearly described a carver and someone forked out £60 for it :ohmy:

    this may well be my track of the year, if you can find a copy buy it......................

    Lapsley - Operator (DJ Kose's extended disco version)

     

    Recently discovered this - 2 years late!

    Great tune - white label demos only it appears. One or two now for sale on Discogs but quite expensive!
