Guest mellytee Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 Hey Im all for that but you seem so angry and pissed off about it; oh and superior to us mere mortals
Guest in town Mikey Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 Tony Clayton was the guest? and me(came a bit later as we were pulled by Gloucesters finest ds on the way into town..no result) thought Leons cousin ran it? Steve Best clapping ever was at the Major Lance all-dayer at Hanley costant louder and louder "Soul Clapping" what an atmosphere ,i think i sent the tape to Wiganer 1 maybe he could put it up on here? Sorry Steve. Memory fuddled in the mists of time. Tony Clayton does stir some memories.

Wiggyflat Posted November 17, 2011 Posted November 17, 2011 Maximum clappage of the male and female variety https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KY1QkFKWJiw Hitting the mid eighties on this.
Guest gordon russell Posted November 17, 2011 Posted November 17, 2011 (edited) HI ALL And a big hand for Mr Clap?.There is only a few real great NORTHERN SOUL RECORDS that it does not matter who you are! it's like chocolate irresistible and infectious to doing a double hand clap, Miss LL a massive ALL-NIGHTER HAND CLAPPER DAVE Edited November 17, 2011 by gordon russell
Irish Spinner Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 (edited) Well i use to give the odd clap back in the day but havent done it for years !!!! I thought untill listing to one of my all time favoret tunes i realised i still give it a couple of claps one with the first clap in the tune and the second on the fifth clap in the tune .Then i realised the claping continued through the record with a grt pice of saxphone coming on clap 100 in all ther around 150 give or take a few claps .I was quite gob smacked on how many there where during this cracking track . I have herd it played out three times this year first at the 100 club then at Burnley and lastley by the main man himself Karl Herd in the rare room at Radders a few months ago .

KevH Posted December 3, 2011 Posted December 3, 2011 Clappage is the friendly gunfire of the soul scene. 1
Davenpete Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 There are the 'claps' and simply clapping along - they are different things. Even in the later days when I was a pup in the early 80s I remember coming home with my hands actually bruised (plus joggers nipple and durophet vertigo of course). Dx 1
Guest BabyBoyAndMyLass Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 The claps are ace (as said not just clapping along), adding drama and atmosphere as does foot stamping. Clapping a good DJ spin is also ace! Imo.
