[Benji]

[Guest]

Well that should fill the dancefloor with Heart attack victims!!

[Guest Trevski]

Not keen on that one, hope it doesn't become a biggie!

[Guest]

I second that!!....its one of those W.T.F.H.I.T.S ? tunes.

[Guest]

I think its GREAT listened to it a few times and its def a grower i'd risk a heart attack dancing to it

[Margo]

JUST A BAG OF RUBBISH

SID

[Makemvinyl]

6ts southern soul

Memphis based and ok

imo

but not worth 1500 dollars or whatever it cost.

[Guest]

Sounded like a 60's garage tune rather than anything else. One for the mod scene rather than the northern scene i'd have thought.

Wouldn't give it house room myself.

sounds like a great record to me ! loads of balls and very different ! obviously a rare item !

I bet there is a garage tune on the flip?

[pikeys dog]

There's a Garage tune on both sides.

The vocal is so bad it makes me cringe to listen to it.

[Supercorsa]

Doesn't do anything for me I'm afraid.

[Prophonics 2029]

Sounds like Slade on acid, cum!on Noddy .

What I'm intrigued about is twofold....

Firstly.... how many people will begin "big this up" just because this "top UK DJ" starts playing it out.... and have even changed their opinion of it just because it's this DJ in question (who )....

Or secondly.... who will have the audacity to approach said DJ to suggest how "shite" this actually is .... thus promoting the old "rare don't mean quality" chestnut ....

Just a thought ....

p.s forgot to say it's a "platter of shite" to my ears ....

Don't do nothing for me either !!

[Guest topcatnumpty1]

I must be missing something---it may be rare and expensive but it ain,t a soul record or even a Northern soul record (if you get my drift) how can it compare with the likes of --My Proposal,Sweet Memories etc.

Just my opinion

Gonna watch Hull City win against Watford again!!!

Wonder if the "Top UK DJ" has read any of the posts on here about his new find!

In my experience most "Top UK DJs" with a few very notable exceptions dont have much in the way of taste anyway and just play what the others play or what some dealer tells them they "need" to have!

Chris.

ps, its shite by the way.

Oh PLEASE let it be me!!!

[Ady Potts]

To me this sounds just like early Creedence Clearwater Revival when they used to sing under The Golliwogs name, but only not as good. Sounds like a white singer ? or most likely Tex-Mex ?

Sorry Steve mate, I think this Top U.K. d.j. should go back to college, or perhaps get a better adviser

As they used to say on Juke Box Jury...Hit or a miss ?

[Guest Trevski]

This just proves my theory about the current trend for more uptempo stuff at venues at the moment. Fine for oldies do's but for more upfront venues there simply isn't enough quality new uptempo stuff to find. If Wigan resorted to playing cr*p to satisfy the demand for uptempo, given the ease and wealth of stuff to be found back then, what chance have you got now? I wondered how long it would be before the cr*p surfaced to fill the tempo demand, looks like it's started!

[Albert Petit]

Absolutly agree....great tune for a punk 6ts garage party....but no for a cool allnighter, cannot imagine a top UK djs spinning this kind of...****.

well I'm all for hearing uptempo records at all-nighters, not the plodders and crossover no one dances to you hear at some venues come 4am and therefore sending everyone either to sleep bored or home!!! There's plenty of uptempo and dancers without having to resort to lounge music.

Known about this record and heard it, and the other side some time ago.

[Chalky]

one went the night before for $655

[Ceejay]

Love uptempo but really don't like this one. The vocals and music just didn't gel somehow.

Sounded pretty bad quality too and in a word was just too 'messy'!!!

And me! The point I was trying to make is that there isn't enough quality uptempo tunes to sustain a full nighter, without either A/Playing the same ones all the time cos there isn't enough new stuff or B/ Resorting to sub-standard tunes because they fit the bill.

Nothing against uptempo tunes whatsoever, I just think you can't deny midtempo- and quality '70's in a night either. Take T& the D's for example, hardly uptempo but a great tune! A good DJ should be able to blend the tempo's within a spot to keep all happy. I don't want an entire hour of plodders or an hour of crossover either, but nor do I want an entire night of banging uptempo. Never had it before, Wigan, Stafford etc all played a cross section of tempo's and usualy all within a DJ's one hour slot. Keeps it interesting and all the better for it IMHO. Too much of one type of tempo, I switch off completely and wander off outside! I know it's a terrible thing to say, but tunes DO tend to sound all the same if there is nothing to stand out or differentiate between. A whole spot of gritty, male vocal, uptempo, I cant tell one from t'other! It like light and shade, makes things stand out when they are contrasted or complimented by something different.

I personally think there are enough uptempo and mid to uptempo dancers to sustain a nighter (and to vary a set) without resorting to mid tempo plodders and 70's crossover no one can dance to, which as good as they may be, serve no purpose other than to satisfy the anoraks and chin strokers who have non intention of dancing and to bring everyone else down!!

What I'm basically saying is the mid tempo and lounge music served up by some dj's and some venues have the same effect on the dancefloor as the so called shite uptempo/dasncers as some of you call it. All-nighters, well soul nights of any kind, are about the dancefloor and the dancers at the end of the day.

The record that started this topic might be totally different at minue 2 or even 4. And to say it ain't northern well many records I hear when out I wouldn't call northern but it's all down to individual taste.

Also the above record apparently filled the floor at the last Lifeline so I'm told, wasn't there to witness as I'd been busy falling of trailers at work The dancefloor rules

Doesn't do anything for me I'm afraid.

Nope,nor me would'nt want it taking up space

Spot on. It's all over the place. That driving tinny back beat is really annoying, is it a guitar all the way through? Not sure it's too fast, just a bit strange and disjointed.

Sounds fine to dance to speedwise, think the last 10 seconds are a bit messy, but other than that, a dancer would probably like it.

Winnie :-)

you got to be joking

Glad we agree Matt.........but I'll be watching to see if you dance to it if someone plays it at the next Nuneaton

Agree with you trevski,however look at the tunes the LEGEND keeps turnig up...........quality or what?

[Md Records]

Turned this one down fairly recently at a much, much lower price. I try and look for the positive in all records, and although this has a little "something" in places, overall it's very disjointed with little structure, I can't see many people singing this to themselves on the way home from an Allnighter. As far as it being "massive" it doesn't deserve it, there are, in my opinion, far , far better examples of this style of "Northern" waiting to get spun.

No prob Tel, it's not the best record I've heard, but it's certainly not the worst

It certainly won't be in my place box mate. Even if i'd just payed £1k for it...

playing devils advocate......there's countless established northern tracks that are messy and all over the place, strange and disjointed.....often the appeal is they aren't perfect. I wouldn't say the Mustangs is all over the place, it sounds pretty consistent to me.

[Dylan]

so who was the top DJ that baught it then ?

Think were singing the same song, just in a different language! Uptempo and midtempo in a set... That's what I said! Quality uptempo-fine by me! I don't want plodders either, Ok the odd one, I mean like Kae Williams for example. Pretty slow really or say George Freeman, but only when mixed in with other tempo's to give dancers a break! I can't stand the sets of 70's lounge stuff as you call it, killed the floor at the Wilton on more than one occaision Just don't think the record in question is of sufficient quality to become the 'next big thing' "Rainy Day' it aint!

[Geordiejohnson]

dear me, not soul... just utter crap

I AGREE WITH THE SONG YOU'RE BOTH SINGING!!! LOVE THE TERMS 'PLODDERS' AND 'LOUNGE MUSIC' AND HAVE TO SAY THEY'RE BOTH PERFECT DESCRIPTIONS ALTHOUGH I PREFER THE TERM SHITE!!!

ALSO, CAN'T AGREE MORE ABOUT THE WILTON. ONLY BEEN THE ONCE AND IT WAS WRIST SLASHING STUFF TO SAY THE LEAST AND WILL NEVER GO THERE AGAIN.

ALSO CHALKY, COULDN'T AGREE MORE WITH YOUR COMMENT ABOUT THE ANORAKS. WISH I'D BEAT YOU TO IT MATE!!

[Soulgrit]

Doesn't do anything for me I'm afraid.

Not for me either, the backing sound's familier, 60's pop. just because it's fast 60's does'nt mean it's good.
