Guest stewartfishcake Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 Stewart Always though Gwen & Ray was a brilliant tune. Fat Man At The Go Go is Butch Baker which is also a good dance tune. What about It's Too Late - Bobby Goldsboro - yuck..... Mick
Guest stewartfishcake Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 Yep your right Mick Bobby Goldsboro' CRAPP................, But i still quite like "Under My Thumb"-Wayne Gibson.......

Guest Gogs Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 I'm starting to feel ashamed as i have a lot of the records listed in this thread, BUT then again these are the sounds that got me started into this scene so maybe not

Soulsider Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 (edited) Would be happy to hear any of those played "Who you Gonna' turn to - Bunny Sigler" I think you mean "Benny Sigler" on Phil-LA Soul. Old Searling spin if I remember correctly. Edited February 26, 2010 by soulsider
Guest martyn Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 "Who you Gonna' turn to - Bunny Sigler" I think you mean "Benny Sigler" on Phil-LA Soul. Old Searling spin if I remember correctly. Havent heard it for years , always thought it was a cover up
Guest Gogs Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 "Who you Gonna' turn to - Bunny Sigler" I think you mean "Benny Sigler" on Phil-LA Soul. Old Searling spin if I remember correctly. been looking for a copy of this, turns out the one i had was a re-issue/boot, love this tune
Ian Parker Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 is my memory fading , or did i really hear 'Best of my love' by The Emotions at St Ives ? also, when was the last time you heard Phyllis Hyman ' You know how to love me' ? or back with the 60's tunes, 'Esperanto' ? Ian
Wiggyflat Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 Records You've Not Heard Out For Over 30yrs.....And Never Likely To... A 1974 WIGAN HORROR ... JOE 90... https://www.youtube.c...h?v=n02MMLOiM40 Just made me think...Joe 90 was a term of derision at my school for someone with NHS specks on. They were usually kept in place with a plaster in the corner......as in look at him he looks like Joe 90.If you were at Wigan and wore the specks and it came on .........pity you. What comes around though as all the young kids are wearing them and want to look like Joe 90.I'm a bit perplexed with the current kids look of looking like Frank Elson, the flat cap and beard.They are looking old before they are old!. The only things they will have to do when they are old is to have a smelly hallway, get up at 6 oclock and walk the yorkshire terrier for a paper and claim the pension.
Wiggyflat Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 Wasn't Condition Red the theme tune to 'Man About The House'? No that was the Hawksworth Big Band...the track is called up to date and was composed by Johnny Hawksworth..Don't think it was ever played though I wouldn't be suprised if it was !!. Anybody remember a track called Mal...a euro type of thing.I remember a red label with a pirate on it for some reason.
Wiggyflat Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 Another one Chapter 3 -I'll never be the same again Barry St John-My man (a uk decca thing) Frantic Escape-Escape From Cuba Seth Martin-Look At Me (Page1) Detours-A whole lot of lovin (CBS) Twiggy-Beautiful Dreamer (Ember dire.......) This has got my mind ticking
Missing Link Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 Anybody remember a track called Mal...a euro type of thing. That was 'Mal' by Martin Stevens on Pirate (a French Canadian record from Quebec). Also around at the time was 'Lindbergh II' by Toulouse, another Canadian record.
Guest martyn Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 That was 'Mal' by Martin Stevens on Pirate (a French Canadian record from Quebec). Also around at the time was 'Lindbergh II' by Toulouse, another Canadian record. Mal Covered up at St Ives as New York Vibrations - Mike Post , very early 76...............................Had forgoten all about the Toulouse record untill you mentioned the name

Ian Parker Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 heard a belter on Radio 2 today..... NINA SIMONE - MY BABY JUST CARES FOR ME remember vividly hearing this at a peterboro niter in the early 80's
Guest martyn Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 heard a belter on Radio 2 today..... NINA SIMONE - MY BABY JUST CARES FOR ME remember vividly hearing this at a peterboro niter in the early 80's Tony Worot used to play it at The Fleet
Missing Link Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 heard a belter on Radio 2 today..... NINA SIMONE - MY BABY JUST CARES FOR ME remember vividly hearing this at a peterboro niter in the early 80's This used to be a big sound at the 6Ts nights in London (forerunner of the 100 club) in the late 70s, early 80s - it was a bit too slow to be 'Northern' at that time. I guess someone at Peterboro' maybe heard it there?

I guess someone at Peterboro' maybe heard it there? Correct . We ( the Bedford crowd ) used to go to West Hampstead where we first heard it . Tony had the bottle to play it at Peterborough & it took off big style there
Platters 81 Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 i been checkin' the tunes mentioned.....i reckon i like 75% of 'em........Bobby Goldsboro....BURILLLL!.....great vocal intro and voice......for years i thought Bobby Sansom on Sublime was him.....(it wasnt was it?)...
Wiggyflat Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 Mal Covered up at St Ives as New York Vibrations - Mike Post , very early 76...............................Had forgoten all about the Toulouse record untill you mentioned the name Wasn't S.O.S All We Need Is Time For Love Canadian as well. Had a few copies on the orange label.Great record but not heard it out.Timmy Thomas-Whats Bothering Me.(never hear that either).The Flirtations-Hold On To Me Babe on Polydor,Flora Wilson-Dancing On A Daydream,Boz Scaggs-You Make It So Hard To Say No,Lorelei-S.T.O.P.....
Wiganer1 Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 Hiya.....Really don't think that the above track has got the slightest with Northern Soul!! ===\ brian rae played this at a niter once and cleared the floor with it!
Pete S Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 Another one Chapter 3 -I'll never be the same again Barry St John-My man (a uk decca thing) Frantic Escape-Escape From Cuba Seth Martin-Look At Me (Page1) Detours-A whole lot of lovin (CBS) Twiggy-Beautiful Dreamer (Ember dire.......) This has got my mind ticking Barry St John - no such track on decca, might have been a cover up or the 'other' Columbia single. Escape From Cuba is by The High & The Mighty who are in fact, The reflections. Twiggy is Beautiful Dreams. brilliant track.
