sister dawn Posted September 18, 2005 Posted September 18, 2005 >>>NORTHERN SOUL HOLY GRAIL!!!!<<<< Cor that's tempting
tone5446 Posted September 18, 2005 Posted September 18, 2005 So its a shit record and the seller must be from another planet, but I'm sure there weren't that many of us who rushed off the floor at Casino complaining about it. I'm afraid our musical memeories sometimes get clouded in the light of how we feel about those Wigan pop records now. I do seem to remember the floor was still packed for Gary Lewis, Keith, Brian Hyland, Nosmo King, Lorraine Silver and the rest, as much as it was for all the "proper" northern sounds that were played. Tony
Craig W Posted September 18, 2005 Posted September 18, 2005 (edited) Yes it is a totally shit record. I know someone who is into the heavy rock music shite and everytime I see him he constantly sings Footsee to me and drives me bozonkers. I tell him to f*** off and he says "Well its Northern Soul ay it" I have to admit I have a copy of the US Roulette Chosen Few vocal version. Edited September 18, 2005 by CRAIG W

Tony Did I say it was a shit record.... Never went the Casino...I'm too young..... My post was a reference to the 'Holy Grail' description. Whatever anybodies views on the 'quality' of this particular record/version...it has never been, and never will be Holy Grail material.... In my opinion anyway.... Edited September 18, 2005 by Mace

Supercorsa Posted September 19, 2005 Posted September 19, 2005 Surely this is the holy grail! >> You Know You Want It! <<
Gene-r Posted September 19, 2005 Posted September 19, 2005 Probably more like "Monty Python and the Holy Grail"! Have to say, I did pester my mum to buy me Footsee on its release (she gave me the 50p to buy it) - but then, I was only 10 years old!
