MrsWoodsrules Posted December 17, 2011 Posted December 17, 2011 Another one, I make no apologies for this one though, Donna Summer's I Feel love, original 12", not least cos it takes me back to the Ritz all dayers, fabulous tunage, ground breaking & way ahead of it's time in it's day. Aid. 1

Billywhizz Posted December 17, 2011 Posted December 17, 2011 I love Rain. I like Boogie Man Orchestra as well. Rain used to sound brilliant at Wigan with all the clapping. pete rain my wake up call so sad cheers billy
Guest ashleysoul Posted December 17, 2011 Posted December 17, 2011 Native new yorker is fantastic . I still play it out now. Nowt wrong with disco, aslong as it's the right kind. As far as I'm concerned the caretaker are borderline disco. Brilliant stuff!
Guest ashleysoul Posted December 17, 2011 Posted December 17, 2011 Oh and I adore rain as well. Didn't know what it was, I'd always heard it on the 'this england' doc and got Pete to identify it. One of my favourite tunes!
macca Posted December 17, 2011 Posted December 17, 2011 bill brandon & lorraine johnson in this list? tremendous record, then & now. I still love the poppies there's a pain in my heart & he's got real love. there, that's got that off me chest. :-9 1
Guest crick Posted December 17, 2011 Posted December 17, 2011 yeh i luv the native new yorker disco mix,check it out
Guest allnightandy Posted December 17, 2011 Posted December 17, 2011 Got to admit I really enjoyed that, good version too, except the kazoo right at the end I bought a white label demo . From the states only to find it's the vocal on both sides. lol
Guest ashleysoul Posted December 17, 2011 Posted December 17, 2011 Oh and ' inside out' by odyssey is wicked, and 'going back to my roots'......wicked wicked group!
jimmy clitheroe Posted December 17, 2011 Posted December 17, 2011 Afternoon of The Rhino - I Still Like It
Timbob Posted December 17, 2011 Posted December 17, 2011 third time round soon everythings gonna be alright, remember getting my copy and wearing the grooves out
Guest giant Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Rain sounds great even today ' but never gets played 'probably because its not rare. got a copy on Canadian London in m- condition which i have tried to sell ' but no one wants it.
Pete S Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Afternoon of The Rhino - I Still Like It Absolutely brilliant instrumental!
Guest jkw Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Was Alan Rhodes for definite, then Russ, then everyone else, Rhodesy also first to play Colored Man Searling then Alan, I sold mine to Alan, that came from John Anderson along with Dawn Baby's gone away (ABC) via Ginger I think...
Pete S Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Searling then Alan, I sold mine to Alan, that came from John Anderson along with Dawn Baby's gone away (ABC) via Ginger I think... Searling was the only one I ever heard play Dawn.
Guest jkw Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Searling was the only one I ever heard play Dawn. 7 Dwarfs for sure went to Alan - Dawn was still c/u as Lori Burton, can't remember who got it... -John
Patto Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Also remember loving stomping to The Baja Marimba Band--Along comes mary,NOW that one never ever gets airplay now or does it.Would love to get my orig copy of the 7 dwarfs back if anyone has on for sale by the way.Will put want up i think after xmas
Tony A Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 The joker went wild,love it Still got one in my boxes, somewhere.
Zed1 Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 And another one - massive at Wigan circa 77 then slagged as 'pop music'...... shame really as I like it and would love to hear it played out again.
Guest MBarrett Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Again and Again by Judith Durham. Beautiful string arrangement, great vocal, love it. Man she has a voice ! I really like The carnival is over by the Seekers Beautiful lady , , , wonderful person . . . voice of an angel . . . Great taste guys!! MB
Guest Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Also remember loving stomping to The Baja Marimba Band--Along comes mary,NOW that one never ever gets airplay now or does it.Would love to get my orig copy of the 7 dwarfs back if anyone has on for sale by the way.Will put want up i think after xmas Last record i played the first time i did a spot at the 100club you don't forget these things !!

Guest Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Brilliant instrumental, I play that one quite a lot here at home. Picture sleeve is cool Pete.
Guest Perception Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Used to have this , belting record imho Don't know why anyone should feel guilty for liking "Let Me Be Your Full Time Groover"!! Wigan stormer then never played anywhere else!!!
Guest giant Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Afternoon of The Rhino - I Still Like It yep just love it
macca Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Bill Brandon & Lorraine Johnson was massive at Cleethorpes, Peterborough and St.Ives in 1975/6.
macca Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Third Time Around, another great 70s tune, not quite sure why anyone should be embarrassed for liking it, then or now.
Guest allnightandy Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Don't know why anyone should feel guilty for liking "Let Me Be Your Full Time Groover"!! Wigan stormer then never played anywhere else!!! That's what i mean Because of the commercialisation of our scene at the time nearly everything played at that time seems to be consigned to history ! even with all the crap , there was still a lot of good sounds in there !
Paul Byford 1 Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 Lady Lady Lady..Boogie Man Orchestra!! Not embarrassing at all..Great Tune. Underated.
Tomangoes Posted December 20, 2011 Posted December 20, 2011 Sorry, but Tim Tam is one record too far to admit liking, even a little bit. It caused more harm than good and along with the others like it, helped kill the scene as I had known it. Of course that's only my opinion.................. Ed

But played as a joke in the first place to be honest.
grant Posted December 20, 2011 Posted December 20, 2011 7 Dwarfs for sure went to Alan - Dawn was still c/u as Lori Burton, can't remember who got it... -John Lori Burton & The Sherries? Loved it

Guest lambrettanik Posted December 20, 2011 Posted December 20, 2011 there were a few crossover (northern/disco) at the time here are a couple that i won't confess to owning https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Bvb5gx4f-M&feature=related and this one I hope this is the original version ! native new yorker-yep ive got that too along with sylvester-do you wanna funk-aaah can you just smell that cheese???-disco cheese-like artificial cheese-to much wont do you any good,but tastes great in the right situation
Guest turntableterra Posted December 21, 2011 Posted December 21, 2011 you got the power, gail winters. never hear it out but a good tune. 2 quid back in the day. as for teddy vann, i remember when i could dance to it LOL...........NOWT WRONG WITH TIM TAM TOO!
Guest Mrs M Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 I have to say I am not embarrassed about any records I like. I think it's great that we all have our own taste and opimions on what we like and don't like. I have never shyed away from saying a tune is not for me despite who plays it me and how the majority love it. It would be a boring scene if we all had identical taste. I have however been subjected to the critical outbursts of my friends on several occasions for my minority dislikes of a record... Bloody bullies, bless em lol
Jim G Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 Gary Lewis "my hearts symphony" even bought a copy this year on UK Liberty!
Boogaloo Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 Bill Brandon & Lorraine Johnson - "Let Me Be Your Full Time Groover" is a brilliant tune and probably just right for reactivation. Must be in my top 10. Now "9 times out of ten" is in a league of its own but still love it.
