Peter99 Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 I hate loads of stuff that has been played over the years - some of it would struggle to be defined as "Northern Soul" as is in the name of the thread. I would probably end up posting stuff that I've posted on similar threads and then you'll be on me like dogs! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

dthedrug Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Doug banks I just kept on dancing.....bad memories of the turgid beat ballads played on the eighties nineties... HI AL DOUG BANKS, I can understand if a record triggers of a personal issue, But as a record, I think you have it woefully wrong I really do! Over the years there have been some really awful records played and then there are the records that have crept onto the scene that belong more to celebrate a Chris Hill revival, what I class as forgotten DISCO, DOUG BANKS is a good example of early Chicago SOUL, it has a the right pace & tempo to make it powerful enough to dance to, and is a genuine rare find, It has also remains popular for many a year, and held a price when others are forgotten by many, the fact is the facts speak for themselves with this one, Also it was one of the first of it's type, and many would say it opened the door to many other great records, and indeed saved the scene at the time?

I was trawling Paul Schofield's collection at the time and this appeared out of the blue. I wasn't even over keen on the original but, hey, there was nothing much else popping up at the time......... ....you can put Al De Lory's "Right On" in a similar catergory..... Lenny Curtis was pretty cool though, although everyone wrote it off as being too dated at the time........

George G Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 As I am not part of the UK Northern Soul scene/heritage, I always wondered if "Pretty Boy" by Dora Hall and records by Anita Bryant and Patti Page were actually played in the clubs and how they are connected to NS. I started seeing NS want lists in the mid 1980s and DH was always the top record that made me and others of my peers scratch our heads. I don't know if this really fits the subject but can someone explain how these records fit the NS scene, if they really did or are they just a 'wind-up'?

I don't know if this really fits the subject but can someone explain how these records fit the NS scene, if they really did or are they just a 'wind-up'? I think Dora Hall had very minor plays. The Anita Bryant, I've never heard played out, but it would only be played as an "ender" anyway. As the person who was responsible for introducing the general public to this record, I take all the blame. Patti Page was definitely played as a cheaper alternative to the Teddy Randazzo version. But it's never about the artist, it's about what comes out of the grooves, otherwise Northern Soul would have no Dana Valery, Rufus Lumley etc. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

As I said in a previous post mate, it's all opinions. Don't like his more uptempo numbers but for me Donnie Elbert comes into his own on some great ballads. Being a ballad & deep soul lover i think "Can't Get Over Losing You" is f'kin' fabulous. What Can I Do Everything To Me Ohh Baby Baby are also great (IMO) Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
dthedrug Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Hi All lets have proper rubbish please, not stuff related to losing your sort, when she found out you had screwed her best mate, and this was our record, or any other mush OK! As for DONNIE ELBERT who had original ALL-NIGHTER plays at the SCENE CLUB, TILES, MOJO, NIGHT OWL, & THE TWISTED WHEEL CLUB, With the fantastic "a little piece of leather", Even the remake on All-Platinum, got a chart entry on London records in the UK, So to state an artist such as DONNIE ELBERT, is suitable for inclusion, please reconsider, as he had many recordings to his name, and the fact he was an artist that had records that started the rare soul scene, if you need real evidence to not include him, in your own time down load this record, In fact I will put it on the SOULSOURCE RECORD OF THE DAY, As it is another record that I can recommend to every one on SOULSOURCE regardless to what they are into today music wise?
