Gentlemen, I fear your comments with regards to JD are misguided...just give in to it...let the nagging beat, chopping guitar and bass-line breakdowns soak into your minds and feet...pure Northern...pure dance-floor dynamite! Go on, admit it...it's brilliant!

:boxing:  :hypocrite:

Now if I could juuuust squeeze a J.D. Bryant in there as well...hint hint!  :thumbsup:

Dave, thanks for posting your playlist but have you forgotten set 3 at the end, you played my request for the Allen Sisters at 5.50, sorry I always ask you to play that when you're over here at NYE. Great music, especially to hear the Prophets followed by Shirley Edwards, my 2 favourite Shrine records.

 

I know Wake Up To The Sunshine Girl is one that you either love or hate, I'm in the former camp, possibly because it was one of the first records that I knew when I first went to the Capital Soul Club back in 2002, start of a long and rewarding road of soul nights, but also because it's a great dance record and I can prove to myself that I can still dance to fast records these days despite being over the hill.

 

It was really good to see you and talk, looking forward to the next NYE allnighter.

Thanks Dave, someone asked me what the Chuck Flamingo one was and amazingly I could tell them. Any info on him, I've got a track by him on an old Sue LP (Doctor Soul) called A little bit of this (little bit of that)?

 

And I didn't realise that If You Ask Me was a different record from the Jerry Williams one.

Chuck had two 45s on Rojac...the one you have (also on UK Sue) and the one I played, which I personally associate with Gary Rushbrooke, as he used to play it upstairs at Stafford (no idea who was first onto it). Quite a few copies suffer from background noise/sound lo-fi, whilst others don't...not sure if it is two pressing runs or the poor ones came from the premature end of the stampers life and/or a batch of poor quality vinyl! There is also an incredibly rare GREEN vinyl copy which plays super clear as well! (He also recorded some earlier non-NS discs).
