Rodders22 Posted December 20, 2013 Author Share Posted December 20, 2013 Hey" thanks everyone,so many great tracks you have mentioned on the thread.New a lot but a few had escaped me,I've played TRY ME by SYL JOHNSON at one of the alldayers and heard Carms play it out; great track Kev Farley mentions by THE SPELLBINDERS which is a great double header with the top draw CHAIN REACTION on the other side, also like his other choice in TALKIN; BOUT JONES by BOBBY JONES which needs to be played. I hadn't heard THATS WAS THE WHISKY TALKIN by RONNIE FORTE before but I'll have to look out for it.THE DIPLOMATS AND DRAKE & theEN-SOLIDS our what's it about..,GREAT UNDERPLAYED NORTHERN SOUL. Thanks again Rod Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

John May Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I would love to hear more lesser known tracks at top 500 nights, but most underplayed / Rare soul enthusiasts won't go a long to their local oldies night & hound the promoters & DJ's to play something different, So by default it's all top 500. Not a critisism more an observation. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
