Hi all, yeah Archie is the killer diller. Wan't there another version by (not sure of all the group name) someone and the criminal element (all cons), seem to remember on the radio in the 80's maybe martyn collins or louie martin chiltern soul show. NO JUST FOUND IT ON YOU TUBE I TALK SHITE .... Ill just go back in my darkened room and perform an act of frightfulness on meself......

Sounds cool.

Yes mate remember you djing, a top niter, think I said as much when i spoke to you at my first DKF when Andy Dyson was on. also some bird next to our lot she had nipples like sand castles Not that I could have done much about it.....and my mate sayin bet shes got a chuff like a wizards sleeve. took me all nite to work that one out.

Feccin brill harpo.... this is what i mean when youre with real deal soul folk the best times are just around the corner. Heres to many more projects mate, to undertake a project such as that, a certain plane of consciousness needs to be attained. That story has made me piss myself brilliant.

always used to quote the words in I think Bill Withers tune "the good folk jus gettin up in the mornin when the bad folk are jus comin home" man i loved being bad..... still do. Anton top spot at Bishops wood mate first time I'd heard you dj.

Second that mate.

WOW, THE DOGS B******S OF A THREAD TRUE SOUL HISTORY LESSON, VERY INTRESTING. RESPECT.

Hi Dave Baggies used to make em so no got those out my system. What do I base my Judgement on coolwise don't know really just feel it was/ is. Read the Catacombs threads to me that would have been cool to have been there at that time. Just good to get veiws on thread

Excellent mate

Nobody's stressed mate i just posted a veiw for others to comment. which is whats occuring If we all agreed this site would be boring. Enjoy the Conspiracy

Yeah and I would be stayin in every friggin weekend!!!!!! listening to Aled friggin Jones!!!!

Hi guys never got to the Cats but well remember being at the Howard Mallet in Cambridge when a coach load from the Cats came down, boy could those guys dance. the memory has stayed with me since must av been 73-74 ish. The Mallet badge (dinner plate) had sold out think the cost was 75p all embroidered to go on ya blazer, the Cats visitors were offering £5 plus to sell, i never sold mine but a fiver was a lot then. Best Kimbo... Love the old stories.

Thats it in a nut ......ya love it and need to express when the toon hits Right on!!

Hi Mark,down at the Embankment. Not a prob people wanting to go to classes as such, in their own rite. but being at a niter when the promoters asked if we the fans wanted the camera's in and everyone giving the soulfist and saying No keep it underground. This now just smaks to me of footsie or wigans ovation it cheapens things. Just my veiw we all have em. You were only after the birds mate with the latin styleeeee.

Hi mate think your reading me wrongly. Not got any prop with people getting into the music enjoying themselves. thats what its about. Its just in my area a local dance class is cashing in so you may have people that will turn up with just the dance class and not as say you and I, heard music we liked followed it and discoverd the dancing/ lifestyle/ clothing that goes with it as it should be, thats life thats exciting. I just think that having the last week line dancing this week the Phillydog aint my sort of people. If someone is into soul be it 30 odd years or 2 weeks makes no odds to me thats good you are a soulie. Its a dance class that takes that special thing away from something I hold close to my heart. Hope that clears things up. Best Kimbo

See you at the hokey cokey then

Wouldn't knock anyone getting into our scene, but on the coat tails of Duffy "Northern Soul dancing lessons" are being offered at the sort of places that previously did line dancing. This is taking the piss and degrading a cool scene and your local soul do will have a load of twats doing the hokey cokey on the floor with no intresst in the scene I dispair.

The guy front right in the glasses that has got to be weasel from nuneaton. Buzzard niters wer ace. as are Jons photos now gotta be one of the best collections ..... Martin from crewe, loads of the real deal soul folk. makes me very proud that I have spend over half my life in the Best company ever. kimbo.

R.I.P. you're in soul heaven mate for sure. Vince, Sue, Kimbo, Lisa, Northants crew. Will have dance for you tonite fella, respect.

Hi mate did the rowing club hold niters? remember going to souls nite in the 80's but never new that.

THE FISH SONG BY NEW CREATION DUFF TITLE BLINDER OF A TOON.

Bloody hell I was there too if it was the nite Andy dyson was djing. If our paths cross again will shake ya hand.

Hi Kev you may well know Mel Nichols from that time, The george wilby, Nags head wollaston, Shades. I'm from Irchester. Did you know wilkie and crew from corby. Hoping to get to Letchworth at some point also made it to Bisley about a year ago. There a lot happening in this area still, also it has never got the credit it was due in the early years. this site is excellent ,a pleasure to hook up with a proper blocker! Best Kimbo.,

Hi mate, I think Karl Boddington May be able to help ya. Cheers mate Kimbo. S Source name look for Boddington. Or Catriona maybe also.

Hi mate, yep used to work with Richard Ekins who used to be on the door Blockers and Dubes not heard that for a good few year. The Half way house, thats not the red house think glenn Bellamy used to dj there. What part of Northants were you from.
