Interesting show again Chris, Shrine 45's for £1.50, if only we knew then what we know now

Top Quality as usual Pat, see you soon.

Totally agree, I sometimes think that people sometimes don't fully appreciate what a great utility this is. Whether they are selling 45's, looking for wants, looking for somewhere to go, or just keeping up with what's going on. I know I certainly have made use of this site over the years and appreciate the hard work that goes into keeping it running and up to date, so here's to you Mike

Richard Searling, top of the list

Yes, I've got Andy down on the list, 2 votes now

Second mention for these, not the sort of outstanding contribution I had in mind though

What about Dave Rimmer - outstanding point of reference with his website - https://www.soulfulkindamusic.net/ Also he must have travelled thousands of miles to DJ and promote the Northern scene, a great guy all round, definitely gets my vote.

Great post Ian, spot on

Trust you vote noted

Fair point, didn't realise it had been done before, however people's opinion change as time passes, and it's good to be looking at the positive side of the soul scene.

The top 3 so far John Anderson, Richard Searling, Ady Croasdell

Looking forward to Arthur's set at Lifeline, without doubt it will be awesome.

:lol:

Good point

Some very interesting nominees, all of which are well worthy of a mention, keep them coming folks

You're right about the top 4 so far, early days though

Let's not forget the ladies, Jumpin' Joan, Val Palmer, Jo Wallace etc.

If you could gave an outstanding contribution award to someone on the soul scene, who would it be and why? There are many people who are worthy of a mention, here's just a few names that spring to mind for the nominees, John Manship - Butch - Soul Sam Mainly because of their dedication and enthusiasm for the music, also they have kept this scene going for many years, even through the lean periods, when a lot of people thought the soul scene was dead and buried. I'm sure the list will go on and on, I could think of at least another dozen or so people who are worthy of mention, however it would be interesting to know your thoughts.

Exceptional dancers or what

One of my favourite oldies Carms, great double sider, like your choice

Martha Reeves - Jnr Walker - Marv Johnson - late 80's in Wolverhampton Edwin Starr at the Casino late 70's Dells at Trentham still got the photos Precisions, Ray Pollard, Volumes at Prestatyn Gene Chandler at Stafford

Disagree, it's not a cop out, if you know what a bootleg is you don't really need an answer to what an original is and to what to play at a venue, just my opinion.
