Apologies if this has been asked before, but what's the last record you hear before heading off home. What's your favourite finisher ? Would be interesting for promoters and soulies to respond. 

For me it's Spinners - For All We Know 

cheers , Dave 

 

 Never get tired of hearing this Classic played out as the last sound - Dean Parrish - I'm On My Way      

I've long thought that Dionne Warwick's "who is gonna love me" would make a good ender, it's a bit sad maybe and not rare but the lyrics certainly fit, always loved it

Who is gonna love me, ? Not you,
You will be gone.
And here I'll stay, all alone and
I'll just waste away,
Wondering who is gonna hold me
And keep me warm when I'm cold.
Who will I wake up for
Through all those lonely years?
No one to wake up for but
Sleep won't come to end these tears.
And who is gonna kiss me if you
Walk out the door?
There'll be no one new: not for me
'Cause my whole life, is you.
Darling, if you don't want to love me
There's just no use hanging on
For without your love
Everything is wrong.

 

Guess it depends on the mood you are trying to create. Personally, I always thought signing off a little downbeat with a bit of pathos might match well with

Ruby Andrews - Casanova

 

Although no one ever played out with it that I can remember.

 

heard this used as as a last record many times.

If I didn't know the rest of the lyrics I would have had that one booked for my funeral  😉

Just brilliant.

Capitol Soul Club always ended with Jimmy Ricks - Oh what a feeling- Festival. TUNE!!!!

Moody Blues - Go Now - tune that ended the Twisted Wheel all-nighters for a while in the 1960s. 

Always made me want to cry - just sounds so bloody sad! 

Eddie Kool would be nice, once in a while...

Did I sell you a copy years ago in Plymouth?

Paul(I was known as Jimmy back then!)

 

You did indeed sell me a copy of Eydie Gorme!!!   What a memory you have.  That copy now resides in a box in Mr Manships warehouse.

All the best mate, glad to hear you are still into northern and stuff.  Did you find many unusual sounds when you were travelling the world with RN?
