TheBigO

and thats the unissued track by the way, ta guys!

Hi all, anyone got Guys old Lord Thunder - Chaos Instru on an MP3? My daughters just erased the tape with it on!!!! ta very much

Darryl Hall, local comp winner in Philly with the Temptones, major star in the 80's.

Yes he did Steve and Ady, will look in my boxes of mags etc in the shed as I think I still have it there, will PM you if I emerge with said article in hand mate.

Got mine last week and its on subscription so its out there as they say

Plopping Andy, does this mean it's shite?????

Top toon! Me and just about all of us around letchworth/Stevenage brought it off Soul Bowl at the time of release for £10 a copy, think Jacko may have one for sale so if he's reading this maybe he'll drop you a PM to confirm. Ah those were the days, this and Timeless Legend all for under £20! Strangely Gavin I never got a copy of the Wind Chymes which I too wanted at the time. Now these are the sort of things that should be being re-played and like everyone else happy memories of Stafford with this one.

Now thats shuffling Have always had a soft spot for Jazzy toons but tend to lean towards the more Mod style of Jazz (think Kents excellent Mo Mod Jazz series) and have always loved Jazz dancers since seeing the old films of the 30's of the brothers that really blew me away! The old hoofers in 'The Cotton Club' movie deserve a mention (cause God knows I am younger than them and cant move half as well as they do and they're in their 70's!!) Used to frequent a Jazz club in Minnapolis when I was out there crate digging, just a small backroom event, but man those guys and gals could move. Agree with Paul-S in that I am influenced by all things also, soulful grooves across all genres, so nice to see this getting a mention here.

Notice Winnie there wasn't a shirt change in sight, not even one!!!! That would have ruled you and me out mate for a start. FWIW I thought it was good and love Duffy's voice. Pickles spot on as usual

Having been behind a deck with you Jo, oooh er!, I am glad you cant remember the words to songs because if my memory and bleeding eardrums serve correct your voice is a pleasure thats best heard from behind 2ft of double glazing!!! lol

Fab track Jo! Defo Levi so maybe David was going to sing lead and never did? Any truth you've uncovered a track in tribute to your good sef 'Thanks for the mammeries?' lol

Chins up Dave! We think its hanging out with that Ginger one too much thats had this effect on you. Hoping you are back on your feet and visitng us here in the South with tht witty Northern banter soon. All the best - The North Herts 6T's Mafia crew

Merry Christmas everyone! T'is the season to be jolly, where we can all put the politics and backstabbing of the past year behind us and unite in a joyful celebration. With that in mind your regular, minus TheBigO for reasons that will become oh so clear!, DJ's from 'The Community Soul Project' bring you there own special message for you to enjoy this Xmas. Ladies and gentlemen of Soul-Source, I give you Steve Guanori; Sean Chapman; Soul Sam and Taffy - the 4 Gits Of Soul - get down! https://www.elfyourself.com/?id=1683390445 Wishing each and everyone a very Merry Xmas and a peaceful and joyous New Year. TheBigO

Is it wrong to ask if you could pop around the house tonight in that outfit Pickes??? Janes out from 8pm

The Spinners also did 'What More ...' unissued track that got released on a vinyl lp in the late 80s

Having attended Little Reg's book launch last night (and what a fantastic night it was, more of that on another posting I am sure) I was somewhat shocked, as were all in attendence, when the Little man, during his speech, 'outed' himself and that other Hemel Godlike DJ Dr Pickles He casually threw into the speech the following statement: So Dr Pickles said to me sit back and relax Reg, your about to get the ride of your life!' Well, to say we were all in awe of his candid admission would be an understatement. The way that the Dr just grinned and smiled his approval only added to the feeling of a special moment we were all witnessing - only broken by the mutterings of the lovely Lou who pointed out that she was still waiting for her ride of a lifetime from the good Dr!!! Reg and Dr Pickles we salute you Genius

Got her after returning from Little Reg's book signing, and how great was she! Been listening to her stuff for a few months now and she is superb, very soulful and with a feel to her voice that few have, very soulful and very emotive. Top woman! Right up there with Ray Lamontagne for sheer class.

Ah yes, he swaying in the wind adding that something extra to the dancing!!! I remember well one of my mates 'indulging' in the charms of a female behind the curtains on the main stage whilst his missus was chatting with Mr Farley not 2 feet away on the decks! Loads of great memories of Morecombe and as has been stated not really given the praise it deserved as it was ceratainly THE venue for 3 years. Mr Gibbons has video tape that would be great to see after all these years as many of the old Firm have now gone sadly. I'll try and scan my pics in, those that I have, and post sometime soon on here.

Not the one I brought back though Taff as you now have that!!! Yep, he had more than 25 as I saw the box some years back whilst going thru the racks. I have a feeling there are quite a lot of these out there.

does this mean we all have to sit around a table and discuss what we think of the merits and the retrospective ramblings of the author? I only ask because if Reg is going to speak about the book we are going to need a lunch, then dinner and probably breakfast after he's finished going on!!!! Reg, sent you an email to follow up on mate

Oi Taff, Reg says you have mine and MrsO tickets for the launch on the 23rd Nov, drop me a text and confirm please.

Mischief you are a genius! Short, damm short but a genius none the less

Sod that Pickles, thats my bloody Plinston posters on your walls!!!! lol. Spoken with Reg tonight and he is CHUFFED so get out there and order it boys and girls

I too DJed at the late great Morecombe allnighters and what a nighter it was, IMHO one of the greats of the 80s and kept the scene going along with the 100 Club, Stafford, Leighton Buzzard, Clifton Hall etc. Where is Shaun now??? I know he took video of the event so that would be good to see after all these years. Top toons as well from Lenny Welch's 'You Picked a Fine Time' and Moody & The Deltas ex Sam Cooke C/U 'Come Clap Your Hands' to Luther etc, ah happy days!
