March 6, 200619 yr I know it's not sport, but I was on the big dipper at Skeg and they played Four Tops 'Can't seem to get you out of my mind'. It was brilliant !

March 7, 200619 yr Once heard some northern soul stompers booming out from the kitchen of the restaurant at terminal one at Manchester airport.......... ....quite sporting of them ,I thought!
March 7, 200619 yr Couple of weeks back - daughter's party at Chicago's, played The Fascinations - Girls are out to get you.
March 7, 200619 yr As a Manchester United fan, I made my first visit to the JJB Stadium last night, not only did they play Marlena Shaw at the final whistle (just after United pinched a lucky victory) they also played Al Wilsons "The Snake" at half-time Can any Latics fans out there tell us of any other tunes played at the JJB? It does confirm my belief that Wigan has to be regarded as the UK capital of soul

March 7, 200619 yr Walking around Ayia Napia, killing time waiting for the airport connection, when shingaling , deafeningly loud, came on from a bar across the road. My wife & I just looked at each other & burst out laughing & went over straight away to invesitgate. Mystery solved. A few lads from Leeds had taken over the sound system at the complex & were playing their C.D.s Needless to say, starved of soul music for two weeks,thats where we spent the last few hours. Regards Ada

Andy not over the tannoy but years ago whilst tramping around rumania we stumbled upon a bar in a remote town with a juke box, among the rumanian faves and one of the only "western" records on it was "and get away" by the esquires
