I witnessed the donnelly purchase from jev of marsha gee 'baby I need you'. Was that Tunstall or early Wigan.

I tend to think this was a tad later than tunstall--more Va Va's I think.

Could be wrong(probably am :lol: ).

There will be loads of discussions like this I bet over the next few months :g::)

Gonna be nightmare :D:D

MB already posted that in post #193

That's either out and out cheating or you're not paying attention.

PAY ATTENTION AT THE BACK THERE! :g:

Slapped legs and an early bath for you son :)

THE 2009 TORCH REUNION

RYAN HALL TUNTSALL STOKE ON TRENT

OCT 24TH2pm to 6 & 7pm to 12

Email

MalcBurton@yahoo.co.uk & PaulDonnellyBP@aol.com

all those that have reserved tickets have been sent an email requesting payment this evening, if you have reserved and you have not received an email from PaulDonnellyBP@aol.com ref Torch Reuinon tkt payment request please contact me ASAP

The Ticket is a two-part ticket which has a perforation that will enable us to keep part when you enter with the remainder being an exact replica of the original Torch membership card for you to keep.

Please note if payment is not received within 28 day from the date of this email then we will presume you no longer require the tickets reserved and will offer elsewhere, The venue is compact however very atmospheric (just like it used to be) with a capacity of just under 300, we expect to sell out my 1st week in March.

For those that want to Malc, Jez and I will be near the infamous Torch Plaque at 1300hrs Post Code ST6 5AL for funny handshakes and the odd photo before setting off at 1345hours fort the 1st Music session 2pm till 6pm.

Although the tickets suggest 7-30 re-open we will in fact be opening up again for 7pm for another session of Hose Street memories.

Thanks for you support

Malc, Jez and PD

I'm going doo wallie Tappo

Thinking of old forgetten Torch stuff to play on the 24th and Van Mccoy soul improvisations entered my head...now how did it go. Looked through my racks, nah can't find it.

Can't really remember how it went if I'm honest but for some bizare reason I sort of thought it might be the inst to "a love you can depend on" does me search on You Tube and hey presto....

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CILFncxDWHQ

Now this is where it gets really complicated, the first few bars and you know the feeling , nodding head, tapping feet "yeah I remember this now" but hang on it aint the inst to " a love you can depend on" and according to a google it was a 1975 RELEASE...bollocks I heard this at the Torch, or did I?

Any way what was the Van McCoy Track that was the inst to Brenda and the Tabulations guys? :huh:

thanks for the Bump Jocko wink.gif , and yes we will have a great time mate. We're leaving the events page alone as you quite rightly pointed out its takin the piss which is why we purposely have been posting record memories in the ALL OUR YESTERDAYS for all to enjoy as believe it or not there are some records which some folk have never heard before

Tell you a little story...

Yesterday I received a phone call from soul music supporter who is 27 year old Spaniard.

His father moved to Spain in the mid 70's to marry a Spanish lady. He told me that his father always used to get HIS soul out when the bar they owned wasn't busy and often told tales about this club he went to as a teenager in Stoke on Trent called the Torch.

His Father passed away three years ago and he asked me if he and girlfriend could represent his dad at the Reunion as he knows he would have attended.

He also asked if the music links we were posting were indicative of the type of stuff that will be played at the reunion as he had only heard a handful of them, infact he's asked me to source Johnny Jones -Purple haze for him as he loved it, so my dear friend by us having some fun sharing our memories HAS in fact spread the faith just a little bit more..

Ps Jocko, have you got a sound file of Gerry and Paul - The Cat Walk you could post up for us...long time no hear? :P

PD

Okay my heartstrings are dully tugged.... but I repeat its Friday and I am grumpy and this was an easy target.

Believe it or not I think I may actually have it at home, god knows why, if so will post it on Sunday in the 6ts soul thread, just so I do not get tricked into another bump here..........

I don't think it was--but someone is gonna come out and say i bought the fcker there at the Torch so....
