Guest Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 Don't stop me...I'm on a roll. In my humblest of opinion there are 2 records that over the last couple of years have gained reputations under different banners. Firstly in the RARE category, LOVE SLAVE-THE ANTELLECS and in the HYPED cat. SISTER JAMES-NINO TEMPO. Neither one ever pulls many onto the floor and both are tricky to dance to. Any others?

I see the Antellects get some stick on here but whenever I hear this played I see a full floor usually Aadmittedly it's not the best record ever played on the scene but it's far form the worst...IMHO. Now Stister James I'm in complete agreement with you Kev, complete and utter shite...again IMO I'd also put Eddie Bishop Call Me up there with it too.
Guest Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 I find love slave hard to dance to, but love the record, not heard it out much recently either

Thought Eddie Bishop was just a great oldie. Don't hear it played out much these days though. Dunno about the north, but gonna put that right next year, eh Chalks

Dunno about the north, but gonna put that right next year, eh Chalks Hear EB at practically every venue that plays oldies. Heard two or three times this weekend. You won't hear it at Lifeline though Ian

Boogaloo Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 Ivy Jo - I can feel the pain. A brilliant piece of Detroit magic and everybody says they love it but you could play a game of 5 a side in the space left on the floor whenever it's played. Regards Warren Boogaloo
Chalky Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 Eddie Bishop...surely a floor filling monster? Maybe but I hate the record

Mace Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 agree with you Mace (for once ) add Larry trider, Dean Barlow and Oxford Nights to the list Please don't agree with me Chalks it makes me nervous no end.
Chalky Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 L Trider..should be L Try-harder.........much harder... Every copy (IMHO ) should be taken, along with Dean Barlow, up two flights, go along to the third window from the right, open it and throw the lot out the f*****

AWESOME,BRILLIANT DETROIT. BUT SHOULD ONLY BE PLAYED IN THE PRIVACY OF YOUR OWN HOME. SHOULD BE SAVOURED. (or at a venue with no dance floor, don`t laugh-I`ve done a spot at a venue with no dance floor.)
pow wow mik Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 ==== disagree with the antellects.. packed the floor at keele the other week cant comment on sister james I love Antallects, but then I always seem to prefer the quirkier northern tracks though, which are always the ones that divide opinion. IT seemed to go down well at Lifeline. Eddie Bishop gets my vote too. Shite Kenny G version of an already cheesy track, just what the doctor ordered . While I'm here, this new thread format's a bit crap, it's a right hassle to read all the posts now
Guest Baz Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 . While I'm here, this new thread format's a bit crap, it's a right hassle to read all the posts now Mik have a read of this https://www.soul-source.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=22249 Should sort your prob out
Guest Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 (edited) Antellects is a great track IMO. As for the worst floorfiller, it would have to be Richard Berry. Always gets people dancing but I cringe when I hear it! Bow bu bu bow, bubba bow babowbabow AAAAARRRRGGGGHHHH! Shoot me....now. Edited December 28, 2005 by recordwanted
Guest Matt Male Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 Worst floorfiller of recent times? Joey De Lorenzo - Wake up to the sunshine girl :angry: what an absolute nightmare record and i'm in an obvious minority as i stand watching a packed floor in disbelief... Matt

Guest Brian Ellis Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 Eddie Bishop...surely a floor filling monster? Please tell me what's soulful about Eddie Bishop's Call Me ??????? And who's claiming the plaudits for first spinning this? Brian

Always gets people dancing but I cringe when I hear it! Bow bu bu bow, bubba bow babowbabow AAAAARRRRGGGGHHHH! Shoot me....now. If they were played back to back, I think I'd stay out on the floor though. Ps, I've even got a suitcase full of kisses too!
Simsy Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 Please tell me what's soulful about Eddie Bishop's Call Me ??????? Brian The Sax I haven't heard it out for yonks. But surely in-offensive filler between uptempo numbers maybe ...?

jonbuck Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 Don't stop me...I'm on a roll. Any others? from day's gone bye "The Flasher - Mistrua" - "Papa Oh Mow Mow - Sharonettes" & "Cochise - Paul Humphrey" JB [ well The Flasher was OK ....Where did the name Mistrua come from Kev ???? ]
Guest Netspeaky Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 from day's gone bye "The Flasher - Mistrua" - "Papa Oh Mow Mow - Sharonettes" & "Cochise - Paul Humphrey" JB [ well The Flasher was OK ....Where did the name Mistrua come from Kev ???? ] The Sharonettes was the biggest tune to bounce the Casino dance floor, but no one will own up to the fact for good REASON. No disagreeing I have tapes from 73 through to the Close, and the hand clapping stomping drowns out the track every time it was played, like no other, believe me.
Martyn Pitt Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 Worst floor filler ever without question - Frank Wilson - Do I Love You Out and out pop record. Antellects pure class, and not difficult to dance to, even at my advanced years. Martyn

Sister James with the Antellects in the same paragraph...words fail me
Guest Netspeaky Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 (edited) Chalky I collect RARE records but I have to disagree I don't like Antellects, and RARE don't make it a good record either, although if it's RARE and good all the better. Edited December 28, 2005 by Netspeaky

Who said rare makes it a good record? I hear many records played cause of the rarity rather than the quality. I push the cheaper underplayed as much as anyone. Neither did I say the Antellects is good,. I said it's far from the worst record on the scene and cannot understand why it gets so much stick when you consider some of the dross played. If one came along cheap I take it you wouldn't be interested

I wasn't actually having a go at you over if it's rare it's good, it was just a throw away comment to make a point about rare records. Edited December 28, 2005 by Netspeaky

John Parker Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 worst records -- got to be the dreadful Brothers----- Ace Spectrum------lou lawton------ all worse than The Snake------ YAK
Reg Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 Vanguards...awful and that rubbish Patience Valentine thing......
Guest Baz Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 lou lawton his other one is a top notch dancer, had a good floor responce to it at the cowboys nighter https://www.soulclub.org/stream/Lou_Lawton_...or_My_Baby).ram but nick knack is utter shite
Chalky Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 Vanguards...awful and that rubbish Patience Valentine thing...... Vanguards which one? Good Times is superb...overplayed maybe but pure class, great vocals.
Reg Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 Vanguards which one? Good Times is superb...overplayed maybe but pure class, great vocals. That one, really don't like it, never have.....horses for courses and all that
Guest Baz Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 Vanguards which one? Good Times is superb...overplayed maybe but pure class, great vocals. never been really overly keen on it myself, got a couple of there other ones quite like them, dont think they would ever be ones for the 'dance floor' though.
jonbuck Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 The Sharonettes was the biggest tune to bounce the Casino dance floor, and the hand clapping . I find that hard to belive for " Papa Oh Mow Mow " especially if you listen to it now, But I was there from 73, So I know it to be true.... But the Instrumental of The Sharonettes version of "Going To A Go Go" now that was Good, & Still sounds good....Don't forget @ Wigan they Clapped to anything, Maybe it was to make an average tune sound better.... I remember when Billy Butler was on live @ Wigan there was Hand Clapping through most of his performance, I must admit most of it was Slow Handclapping, because he was below average.... JB
