Herbie Williams - The Lover Who Loves You Not
Incredible record one of the best ever.Always been an ambition of mine to dance to this one more time since the last time i did when searling was spinning it in the early 80s.Heard that Phil Dick had got a copy and went to a Dewesbury Town hall night last year hoping to realise my ambition.Frustratingly got a phone call about half an hour before Phil's last spot to go home daughter not well. Heart dropped when i checked the plylists on here to see that he played the masterpiece and i missed it.Those late casino playlists have never been surpassed with Court Davis,Deadbeats,Damon Fox,William Powell,Nurons,Herman Hitson,Marvelous Ray.Oh what i would give to hear all those in a set one more time.

Still Dancing Through The Pain
Good advice Billy gonna make it to more venues this year and just stick to my limits .You are a fine example to us all never off the floor and you still got it.Think the problem is we all remember the days when you could really go for it without any pain and all around you were spinners,stompers,shufflers,and acrobats.

Still Dancing Through The Pain
These last couple of years has seen me carrying a few injuries that have really stopped me enjoying my dancing.I wouldn't say i was a great dancer but we all like to be able to move freely so we can strut what we think are our best moves.As a result i haven't really attended that many events this year to i don't really enjoy sitting down most of the night.However i don't think i am on my own here as i have noticed that as we all get older people who used to dance all night now just get up for their fave records.Also lots of people i know say they are dancing through grittred teath with back pain ,knees gone ,hernias,hip pain etc etc.Who else out there is jumping onto the floor knowing they will not be able to move in the morning at what range of injuries are we coping with

Ty Karim
Thanks for your Info John and yours also Daz.Don't really want to get into the Soul Police Playable /Unplayable thing.Prefere always to own and play originals US or UK.records but there are many examples like this where tracks get there first UK issue on complimentary singles and reissue labels.Never been able to understand why if they are legit some people look down on them getting played.Always loved the Ty Karim track by the way and in fact prefere it to Larry Atkins

Ty Karim

Ty Karim
Bit confused about this version of the Lary atkins Stormer.I think the Ty Karim Track was prev Unissued but then released on a controversial EBONY label.I have this on a Lowton Anniversary single,is this a legit issue and therefore playable out as the first UK press Any info thanks--PATTO

Maxine Brown Mystery Track
Thanks for the replies guys. Yes i think it could have been the Melba moore track i remember sounds right with the spoken intro lasting long enough to raise eyebrows before a great philly beat kicked in with a powerful vocal.Thank Ian for me please Pete was it the man himself who was spinning the track that night?Also Arkwright thanks for Seems Youve Forsaken My Love--one of Maxine Browns finest records.Another fuzzy nighter moment cleared up off to get me a copy now.

Maxine Brown Mystery Track
HI Guys Got talking to a mate last week about the fantastic Maxine Brown and her brill recordings.We both went through our faves but it brought me back to a mystery track thats been bugging me for years. During one of the early years Stoke Kings Hall Togetherness Nighters around 98/99 the usual classics were being played and the place was buzzing.Then out of the blue a track came on that didn't quite fit into the stompers being played and it took everyone by surprise. It was e female vocal which started slow almost spoken vocals for 30 seconds before breaking out into a great dance tempo which brought the dancers back to life.When it was over the DJ who i think could have been Dave Evison Called it as Maxine Brown. All these years later i have not heard the same track played out and i have listened to all the maxine tracks i can find.Starting to think this was one of those escape from reality moments we all have from time to time mid allnighter.LONG LONG shot but can anyone on here offer any suggestion as to what the track can be or can you remember the event the track did stop people in there tracks and you recall them moments. Regards and happy christmas PATTO

Wigan Casino
Spot on Matt.Searlings late casino 60s plays were the dominant sounds of early stafford and were in my opinion the best playlist ever on the scene.Equally Richards late casino 70s plays were hugely influential on great venues such as Clifton Hall.In fact Richard Searling was God during this period

Ain't No Soul Best Version?
That Demo copy of the Corvairs that you put up Roger is the one most commonly seen.Mine is an issue is it harder than the demo to get does anyone know. I have to agree with the majority major is the one for me but love the Corvairs played out loud.Never liked RPs can't get past the falsetto vocal
-
Ain't No Soul Best Version?
Major Lance--Ain't No Soul Left In These Old shoes.This is of course the standard version of this classic track.But is it the best in your opinions which ones do you prefere.Me i own two ---Majors Okeh classic and the pounding version by the Corvairs on Columbia.By the way my corvairs copy is an issue is this rare as all others i have seen for sale are demos PATTO
