I'll go with:

The Contours - Baby hit & run

The Isley Bros - Tell me it is just a rumour

as the biggest floor-fillers upstairs.

I can remember gettin an itchy scalp in Mr Ms & havin to retire to the ballroom.

Took me a while to venture on to the dancefloor in M's as it used to scare me sh*!less as a young kid, but I remember the first record I danced to in there was Ramsey Lewis' 'Wade in the Water' and the last tune I remember hearing in there was Sylvesters' 'You Make Me Feel Mighty Real'.

You Make Me Feel !! Was that played in M's ???

I asked Russ Winstanley a while back if it ever got played in the main hall and he said 100% No !!

It must have been towards the end because Sylvester didn't come out til 1978 and it was in the charts for months on end,

Pigbag also in M's thank god I'd stopped going

Anyway I started this thread almost 18 months ago,And the radio show it was first used to advertise is still going strong,

On this afternoon 3-5 Uk time 15.00 - 17.00 Gmt,

Michael Harvey (MickeyFish)is on with me today

I distinctly remember Sylverster being played maybe around 78/79. 100% as I thought it was a bit strange compared to the usual fare served up in there.I remember M's being totally empty. Sure it was one of those 'quiet nights' when the Casino was next to empty.There seemed to be a mass exodus at one point during the late 70's.
