Guest isis Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 Can't say I have, tho' my Mum was a HUGE fan. Used to wait for me to come home with my latest records/tapes and thought Brenda Holloway had the best voice she'd ever heard, cried to "The Drifter" and sang along to everything else. I am in the process of "indoctrinating" my 20 year old niece though...seems she has an ear (hates August & Deneen, loves Brothers Of Soul).

Mak Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 (edited) I remember way back in the early 80's , a young lad who was still at school but doing his own window cleaning bussiness at the weekends came to clean my windows . I had not played any Northern for years it was all laid under my bed and in the loft.This perticular Sunday morning i decided drag it out and play some old bits , there was a loud knock on my window and the young lad shouted with a massive grin on his face ''Whats that music your playing '' . The rest is history . He is a very good friend to one or two on here , Byrney and Mark from Leeds . his name is Paul Wain(Wainey from Derby) ,he still loves his soul to this day .
