My Fave re- activations heard this year Soul Notes--Don't make me beg Chris Morgan--Who am i Bronzettes--Beggin Truetones---Hes got nerve Jesse fisher---Your not loving a beginner Incidently BARNEY nice call on the HONEY TOWNSEND,always sounds great loud

Hi Guys Just gave the flip of Flirtations Nothing But A Heartache a spin.Track is HOW CAN YOU TELL ME.This is a fantastic storming Old Skool dancer and would have suited the Big Venues.Was wondering if it did indeed get any action back in the day .

Gareth That is identicle to my copy mate which i have always been led to believe is the original U.S 45 release,unless anyone knows otherwise

Typical luck for me.Waded through some great suggestions in the cheapies thread,picked a fave front runner,offered 4 times what Bri Pinch struggled months to sell his for,and it now vanishes from trace. Still after a JO ANN GARRET--WHATCH BEEN DOING--DUO Anyone please

No problem Dave,were cool,mistaken identity happens all the time on this crazy scene,i don't recognise myself sometimes

Thanks for your brill selections Adam,Yes mate i did finally get the CL BLAST and a SHIRLEY WAHLS.These Cheapies are great but what happens if you love loads of them same old funds problem.Just put my first target up in sales--JO ANN GARRET--WHATCHA BEEN DOING.Don't suppose you got one at all?

What was it that the great Bill Shankley said about football FOOTBALLS NOT A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH, ITS MORE IMPORTANT THAN THAT Substitute A NORTHERN SOUL NIGHT OUT inplace of FOOTBALL OF course it made a difference the unwashed masses are desperately jealous of our scene. It made us individuals and set us up perfectly do deal with all lifes crapness, theres an answer to everything while your listening to Soul music

HI people Some great tips from the thead i started in the Look in The box section thanks everyone.Anyway the leading contender is JO ANN GARRETT---WATCHA BEEN DOING--DUO anyone out there with one to sell around the £30-£40 mark pm me please

Don't need direction mate just a bit of inspiration and advice from the Top people on here.Most of the tunes they have mentioned i know or have had and parted with over the years but some of them i ain't heard and are fantastic and are much better than most of the overplayed casino rejects we are spoon fed at lots of venues.I don't know you Dave maybe your easier to understand in real life

Thanks Sepia,Got the Lee Rogers-Troubles massive late 90s record,nice tip on the Tina Britt checking out the others.On the whole everyones tips are top notch thanks to everyone for their time

Thanks Grant,Like the FIRST GRADE,very garage soul but nice tempo,The Bands of Gold is a bit Blue-eyed poppie for my taste right tempo though

Hey thanks a lot Matt plenty there for me to check out appreciate it mate.Gonna be a late night

HI guys looking to top up my box with a few credit crunching busters.Looking for uptempo Northern with an R&B edge costing less than £50.Do any of you have any closely guarded secrets that you are willing to let out of the bag.Recommendations appreciated Thanks--Patto

Thanks for your reply to my Question Ian.BRILL story mate great to know the tale i heard was true.Been said many times but your's is the book that needs to be written

Question from me for IAN DEWHIRST.One of my fave late casino spins was WILBUR WALTON--24 HOURS OF LONELINESS.I once heard that IAN discovered this in a Sheffield junk shop circa 1978, is this true?

Fantastic track great dancer,just the kind of record that needs to be played out more.Would never part with mine along with another great Way Out release by the Soul Notes--Don't Make Me Beg

Think the breakthrough 1003 is on an orange label,and the later 1004 release is red.First books at £200,second £75.Me i have and would go for the very very similar W.F.B on the nice looking California Gold label and save a wedge

A very well written,tongue in cheek,but thought provoking post Jocko.Oh by the way also TRUE

Hi Guys,love reading these type of threads.I missed out on the Casino but over the years i have seen out most of the great dancers you have all mentioned.However i have never knowingly met or seen the Legendary Frank Booper.Are there any posted photos of him or tube clips with him in just to put an image to the name i keep hearing about

Must appologise Vaultofsouler i have just found out i've been talking bollocks ,the edited version i have is on a white label carver i picked up at keele many moons ago and i think it was lifted from a C D don't know which.The BOOT label one i've been going on about sounds like its the PP version which is slightly different to the Roulette one as i'm sure you know.There is a long 8 mins plus alt version posted on you tube.Think i should just stick to my Roulette issue and be happy with its short brilliance,don't like 12' never have.But thanks for replys and sorry for any confusion on my part my heads a shed on sunday nights in fact most nights these days

Thats not the same thing at all mate,The 12' has a very long too long intrumental section,while this edited version has a shorter one followed by an extra verse

Thanks for that mate,interesting so the only example of this longer edit on vinyl is the Boot label disc,shame its not legit and can't get spun out think it improves on the shorter 45 version which ends too soon.Interesting series of records on the BOOT label i recall them appearing around early 90s think another one had the Detroit Prophets on it.Back to E.S.P does the longer version appear on any CDs

Hi guys Big old fave of mine--MY BABY'S GOT E S P---FOUR BELOW ZERO. I have an original Roulette copy,i also picked up a re-issue some years back on the BOOT label.This re-issue has a longer version of the track with an extra verse.Where does this come from is it the PP label version or an album cut Thanks in advance--PATTO

Nice one Debbie you've made this Soulie blush.Don't know weather to feel pleased for your partner or sorry for him especially if everything has to be done at 100MPH

I Think the principle of ender tracks is a VERY traditional and important element of a nighter.Its an emotional come down and closure of the night.You have had all night to dance to the uptempo stormers and there is no better way to leave than a slow dance to a spine- tingling slab of soul Think the casinos 3 before 8 are perfection and will never be beaten,but if i have to choose alternatives i think i'll go for Carl Carlton---You Can't stop a Man in love Betty Lavette---Almost Bessie banks ---Go Now much better than sex,that can wait till sunday afternoon
