Patto

A change from me here with a 70s tune.Great social commentary in the lyrics that are still relevent today.Had this on 9 chains demo for a while not heard it played out for many years

Here you go 27.35 Fantastic stuff

Never heard it till my time in the 80s Martyn so dont know the score but it would surprise me if it did get a Wigan Spin.The tempo and style was a step away from the traditional Northern sound an 80s vibe like so many stafford oldies that dont get accepted by todays scene.There is a fantastic clip on you tube of crazy Baz playing it out at a venue in the 80s ill see if i can track it down.

Couple of old Stafford moovers from me today two that always got under my skin right through to my jiggly bone

Love it great tune an overlooked one.Thought it was a new tune to my ears but somehow it sempt familiar.Then i noticed it appeared on one of the early goldmine CDs in the Cmon n dance series so i think thats where i heard it.Never heard it played out though so think your onto a winner there Ian.Great looking label.

Another infectious slab of Dancefloor dynamite..Still a cheapie but getting a big following and demand is growing.

Think ive posted this before in the distant past but this underplayed and very hard to get Northern stormer realy needs more exposure.

Thanks Fred Im a Donny lad so was interested to know where venue was.See your point now about the pre Northern Soul tag era . Some loverley British originals there mate.Got a couple of them myself.Always enjoy your playlists Patto

Hi Fred Where was the venue mate and what do you mean by No Northern

OH YESSSS

Yep Brill record Rick got one myself. Always followed by Geater Davis-- My Love Is So strong for you.Two similar tracks that sound great played loud.

Cheers Ian. I have played it out once and afterwards was thanked by a couple of old Stafford goers that said they had not heard it since Guy H played it back in the day.It fetches a fair old price these days and has appeared in a Manship auction.Mine is Demo which is easier to find than the stock copy. By the way love that Duke Turner on your You tube channel new one to me top tune

One from me tonight a big fave of mine and an awesome Stafford spin

Well Done Bruv you cracked the upload link and you couldnt have picked a better tune to do it with

There has been previous similar threads about this and this is what i wrote back then As we are all aware many different types of music have been played on the scene over the years.Not all by Black artists and many not very soulful.This is why despite the commercialised exploitation i still prefere to call it a NORTHERN soul scene.This is because the Northern Scene is first and foremost a dance scene and no matter how old we get and how knackered we feel its all about hearing those first couple of bars of a tune that create an uncontollable urge to get on the dancefloor. Over the years ive heard many records being described as non soul pop stomper shite.But the same records have the power to make grown men and women cry,throw themselves round the dancefloor, and sing every word.So if a record can bring about these emotional reactions it must surley have some Soul content.

Another one surprisingly hard to find for a cheapie .Mines a nice yellow demo.One told by an old torcher that it got lots of spins there and always went down well.Never heard anyone else play it out.The flip is an awsome dancer also.

Another Northern all time classic from the Torch era.Took me an age to find a nice genuine original.Loads of lookalike boots out there.

Its Certainly a stomper mate elements of So Is The Sun --World column.
