Happy times, no worries apart from how to get too the next nighter Steve Yeah I know Steve, Massive at one time, but shunned now as much as, if not more than the Snake which was one of the biggest back in the day. Times change eh? Edited February 2, 2015 by Northern Soul UK 1
Winsford Soul Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 The soul police and keyboard warriors now dictate what's acceptable unfortunately Steve 2

Winsford Soul Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Anybody know it's history Northern Soul wise ? A Wigan "pop" choon ? Chris. It was played at the casino in about 77. Not sure by who though. It really was a massive tune at the time.much loved by the ladies. Steve
Stateside Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 I can honestly say I've never heard it before, until I just Youtubed it and I hope I never hear it again. Kev
Soulstu Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Bloody hell - Muriel Day, Tim Tam, Wombat, The Snapper by the Montons (????)!!!!!!! Somebody remind me, why did I get into northern soul?!!!

Steve Hey these things happen. Think of the very early days of the Mecca, PJ Proby Niki Hoekey, can't think of a duffer at The Torch but I'm sure there was one
22ndsoul Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 (edited) Remember going to an all dayer at the Top Rank in Sheffield in 1978,the light's came on and the DJ announced that the record he was about to play had just cost him £50,you could hear the intake of breath in the room.Sure enough it was Muriel Day.

Harry Crosby Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 I've heard a lot worse than this! Honest question Pete, don`t these have solid centres, like other british stuff?? don`t shoot me I know nothing about british stuff but would like to know.

Mellorful Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Did anybody dance ? It didnt get me on the dance floor, but about a dozen folk were giving it there all and enjoying it. Tim Tam and the Turn ons sounds like R&R to my ears but then again Little Richard get down periodically gets a spin so I guess the boundaries get a bit blurred. Its not my type of tune but I was knocked back on my request - Mel Wynn = stop sign; a lot of great records spun by the guest DJ's but to forget to put Mel Wynn in the box is almost unforgivable.
Wiggyflat Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 I had a pressing of Tim Tam and it was in the discogs pile about to be listed.I thought this will never sell in this day and age.Sure enough 2 days later...In the post.I am really worried for the buyers sanity that in 2014 he bought a pressing of Tim Tam for 13 pounds.
Wiggyflat Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Btw original Page Ones came with and without solid centres. 2
Harry Crosby Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Btw original Page Ones came with and without solid centres. Thanks very much for that

soulfulmick Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 I would have wanted her in person for £50.00! You would have to pay me more than £50 to play it
Pete S Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Honest question Pete, don`t these have solid centres, like other british stuff?? don`t shoot me I know nothing about british stuff but would like to know. I've never seen one of these with a solid centre Harry, or a push out centre, not saying there aren't any but most of the labels pressed by the Mercury/Philips/Polydor group which this was a part of started using jukebox centres for everything around that time 1
Pete S Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 My red issue doesnt have a solid centre Harry Never had one of those.
Pete S Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 This was a 4 week wonder really, was there every time it was played, it was played twice on the first night, second time it packed the floor, then Keith Minshull played it the next few weeks but stopped not long after. From what I remember, Keith was the only dj to play it.

Winsford Soul Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 First Wigan play March 1978 Cheers Pete. I bow to your superior knowledge. I remembered it getting played but just wasn't sure about the year or by who Steve

Zed1 Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Give me Muriel Day, Tim-Tam and the tampons or even the Snake in preference to this...... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cARPXpHYCE 2

We were taking about another track I played but I can`t remember which Hi Steve Think it was Sissie Houston - Bring him back? A forgotten class tune. I really enjoyed the set you played including several big tunes and underplayed numbers like Sam Ward and Major Harris. Atb Stu
