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....

I'm glad someone was there way back then, who agrees about the Sharonettes. Some other floorfillers from that period "JOE 90" who the hell played that, I'M ON FIRE by 1000 Volts, Casino one week, charts the following.

Yea but Russ never played it as 5000 Volts!!!! He played it as "Black is Black 75 by The Tamiko's" & the Instrumental at that....otherwise Tina Charles could have been a Northern Soul Star....

If I remember rightly Tina Charles did have something played, one of her early numbers, a Biddu production.

Could be "Now Is The Time" same as Jimmy James & The Vagabonds

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

At last, someone else who doesn't like Frank Wilson's Do I love you. Sounds like a pop record to me too, think the hype that this record's created is more to do with the venue it was first played at & the era it was played in.

Mark

I like the music of Jim Reeves & Matt Munro a lot more, honest.

I really am all alone in loving Dean Barlow arent I? Although I do agree it's not a tune for the northern scene, but great on the mod scene

This is correct. I have a vague recollection that John Manship championed something on UK CBS by her but the title evades my failing brain blush.gif

Some of the floor fillers at Capitol coming in for some stick here. Antellects and TC and the Bricklayers meant poor old Trickester only had the stage to dance on as the floor was shoulder to shoulder.

As for Joey Di Lorenzo (fantastic Northern Soul record, who says they have to have soul?). For creating that buzzing atmosphere of a room full of people all clapping in time to a beat of a great dancing tune. There was none better IMO.

As for ones I dont like that fill floors (leaving aside the uber-dreadful Professionals - T.W.I.L.Y) I cant stand 'Crook his little finger', or 'Quicksand', yet whenever I hear them played the whole room seems to disagree with me.
