Hi all my first post and i gotta say this is the best laugh ive had in ages!!

Although not my first post I haven't been on as often as I used to be and this thread is fantastic ... I do like it when people have a go at Mr K Roberts ... maybe he got the initials mixed up and he thought they were referring to "KRC" and not "KFC" :unsure:

What's the C stand for Mandy?. Somebody mentioned the other day on the Rochadale thread that he was a consultant, maybe that's it :huh:

Consultant on what I dont quite know, maybe chicken :thumbsup:

very misleading and anyone who claims to have invented Northern soul was lying.

It just happend when certain types of records got played in clubs. it just got given a term after all these clubs that started playing same type or songs. unless people think differently

Hi Rob,

Yes I think it was, blimey the memories, looking through a load of rubbish i have stashed under the bed last week, found a boxing day special ticket( pale blue), 1983, price £1.50 for trotters, Kev Roberts, Dave Evison, and i think it may have been Gary Rushbrook, dont know if you went to this one Rob, but I can remember it being stacked out.

Never Missed 'em, great venue.

I dont think Kev was trying to claim he invented Northern Soul.

He just struggled to get 'Brand Leader' in there.

The basic problem is that when folk try to make a living out of an art form they either end up doing it in a way which supports the art form or has a parasitical relationship with it. It seems to me that a lot of people view KR as being in the latter category. I don't think that's true, but his personal PR is very bad.

What's actually the highest number of views of a topic (Excluding those looney tunes in freebasing !!!) This monster I created appears to be averaging nearly 80 views an hour, every hour over the past 48 hours.

Remind me again who it was who started SSCDT? :lol:

Wouldn't mind betting the most views would have Kev Roberts or Ian Levine in the title, or as the subject matter :shades: Dayo's thread about a track we all liked had about 400 replies I think, that must be up there as well :D

Hi David ....

Wore the ubiquitous moustache, from Stainforth - perhaps he was on the door at the Thorne White Hart when Dad was doing that with Gary Welsh rather than the Windmill?

Besides, I thought you only needed Sue on the door in those days?!

Dad trying to keep his fring out his eyes and you doing your best Barnbrough version of Magnum PI (with just a hint of Terry McDermott)?

Moffat must have been later at the back room of the White Hart.

I can confirm that the 'Doorman' at the Windmill was "Shelagh Payne & Susan Burton".

More than enough for any man!

Thanks Sean. I'll pass on your regards, warmest wishes to all. I'll be 'home' on the 27th-28th, and by co-incidence Mum, Dad and soon to be 18 year old sister Harriet will be visiting me down here in Suffolk this weekend.

Dad will be angling for a trip to the local Wetherspoons, he's not too keen on Southern beer prices in the normal pubs. Landlords around the county accustomed to the Yorkshire battle cry of "How much!?!?!"

And don't get him started on the price of the pool table....

All this from a man who deliberatley bids for records he's got and doesn't want on ebay, simply because he hates the idea of someone getting a record undervalued.

I think he's taking some sort of Knight's Templar vow to protect soul records from going cheap.
