ImberBoy Posted February 12, 2007 Author Posted February 12, 2007 Ray Pollard - The Drifter Fookin makes me cry!
ImberBoy Posted February 12, 2007 Author Posted February 12, 2007 The Staple Singers Trippin on your love Slooooooooooooooooooow intro but the pace picks up to a finger snappin groove so I'm not sure if this qualifies as heart stopping speed? Now talking about intros that allow you to stick the kettle on, Terry Callier "I don't wanna see my self" allows you to cook a complete Sunday fookin roast before the dance floor explodes! So sadly this don't qualify either!

Guest Dan Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 loads of great slowies out there, slow to mid tempo stuff always my favourite. used to love dancing to That Other Place by Wade Flemons all those years ago. as matt says, Pyramid is not that slow once it gets going.

Jamie Thats because its shite compared to the Miracles version mate. BTW, I hear Leeds have just signed Anneka Rice. Apparently she likes a challenge
Guest Jamie Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 Thats because its shite compared to the Miracles version mate. BTW, I hear Leeds have just signed Anneka Rice. Apparently she likes a challenge You can sit on the fence if you like, Steve BTW, I have just developed a rare condition known as 'selective vision' and I'm unable to read the 2nd part of your post. Though knowing you as I do, I reckon it's bravado based on your recently acquired feeling of 'safety' in the Premiership. I'm sure it's hilairious none the less. Leeds on the 17th? Jamie
Dave Thorley Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 There have been shed loads of soulful steppers played on the northern scene, just needs to be the right place and a crowd that's up for it, eg Almeta Lattimore-These memories Epicenter feat Sandra Feva-Don't come round here no more
Guest Matt Male Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 Anyone know James Kirk - You better come home - Guyden? It's so slow i'm not sure if it's dancable. Cant do a soundfile sorry. Does anyone ever play this out?
Guest in town Mikey Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 They used to end the nights at Placemate 7 in Manchester with an old Twisted Wheel 'fave' from the Impressions. The name escapes me as usual. Maybe Dan could refresh it. Slow as a dirge, but oh so soulful.
pikeys dog Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 Jimmy Ricks - Oh What A Feeling - Festival gotta be the slowest mentioned so far.
Rich Buckley Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 Trends - Not Too Old To Cry on ABC Jerry Fuller - I Get Carried Away on Challenge Willie Wade - When Push Comes To Shove on Nite Life I'm sure there are lots! Rich

Guest SteveSnow Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 (edited) On saturday I thinned out the dancefloor pretty quickly with Kenny Lynch's Movin' Away....... :tomato2: .......way too slow for the busy feet of Southampon's finest! Edited February 12, 2007 by spin-doctor
Geoff Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 On saturday I thinned out the dancefloor pretty quickly with Kenny Lynch's Movin' Away....... .......way too slow for the busy feet of Southampon's finest! This was the ender at Walls Of Heartache last month, quite a few of us were gliding aroung to it, nice record. I love the Buddy Smith When You Lose The One You Love, played at Luton and TOS. Also Bobby Bennett's Alone With My Tears, great track. Personally like the Gil Bernal version of Poor Boy. However none of these are dead slow, you can still shuffle around to them. In my dim and distant youth slow soul records were played in clubs, almost deep soul, but you would get into a clinch with your girlfriend, maybe rock back and forth. Two that spring to mind are You'll Want Me Back by the Impressions and Such Is Love Such Is Life by the Miracles. It seems that dancing with a girl is rather frowned on nowadays.

But if they were genuinely "the finest" surely they'd be able to dance to any tempo?
