  3. just to qualify your comments can I ask if you are financially involved with the film ?
  4. no real wish to remove this thread so ask can you drop the "next event promotion" type posts along with the duplicate in your face flyers can use the event guide comments for that sort of thing best just use this forum for after the event playlists posts thanks mike
  5. have just edited your post the use of offensive language/images etc on here can damage the site in various ways terms of use do cover this ask that in future you drop doing such thanks mike
  6. yep google being the guy...
  7. some background and news of a new version shows up here... Speaking on behalf of the group, Jodi told Tribune Entertainment: “We also wanted a song that promoted the Bahamas, a song that would bring more tourists here. This song Bahama Islands actually came from a song called “Sun Sand and Sea” back in 1975, which was written by my dad’s friend Kirk Carey.” #She said the song was improved with new music, and rewritten with new lyrics and lots of harmony. #“Back in 1975 there was only one radio station so the song did not get that much promotion as it should. Also Kirk’s band that recorded the song, came to an end shortly after releasing it,” said Jodi. https://www.tribune242.com/news/2013/apr/03/sisters-hope-take-talent-global/
  8. the trick with offtopic is that its no hassle if its just the odd comment/one liner now and again once start getting posts following like the above it quickly becomes a pain no real wish to delete posts etc so help us out and use your head when posting will reopen shortly cheers mike
  9. yep I saw that today is the official release date what try and do with soul junction and similar releases is cause we get a bit of duplication from 2 or 3 or more members inc myself is treat any pre-release "teaser" sort of news as a forum post and then treat the actual day of the release news as a more formal item that way avoids too much duplication etc imo cheers mike
  10. hassle with clip and images sorted /source/cms-records/junction/august-heat.mp3

Soul Junctions latest addition to the wide world of quality soul releases August Heat You And Me/Hooked On You SJ 524 This month sees a great double sider Soul Junction 45 released from the group August Heat "You and Me" is the leading track but for my monday morning ears "Hooked on You" is the necessary side You can listen to both sides here.... https://www.soul-source.co.uk/uploads-soul/junction/august-heat.mp3 Available via your usual suspects or via Soul Junctions own online shop http://www.souljunctionrecords.co.uk/buydirect.html Hats off to Soul Junction for yet another stand up release Here's the official blurb.... Press Release: August Heat You And Me/Hooked On You SJ 524 Release Date: Monday September 9th 2013 The August Heat Band, hail from the small town of Bristol near Opelousas, in the state of Louisiana. The main core of the August Heat band consist of the gospel trained lead soprano vocalist Eltonez Salton otherwise affectionately known as “Cookie”. Veteran lead guitarist, background vocalist, and the August Heat album project producer, John Kent Pierre-Auguste. Who more frequently uses the abbreviated name of Kent August. Along with bass guitarist Ronny Sonnier, drummer Michael “Joe Monk” Caesar and keyboardist Tony Lea. On the “Closer” album project additional keyboard parts were provided by local musician and studio engineer Michael Lockett. Who also recorded and mixed the entire album at his Lockdown studio in Lafayette, La. The “Closer” album project began in 2010 and was a further two years in the making. It is from this excellent album that we at Soul Junction have taken the delightful mid-tempo offering “You And Me” backed with the more up-tempo dancer “Hooked On You” for our next 45 release. In doing so, we hope to introduce the great sound of the August Heat Band to the appreciation of a greater worldwide audience. Here’s to a successful future, August Heat.

  19. This is the day three post for the Day Three - Northern Soul - An Illustrated History Competition Please read this article for full details on the book release and this competition thread and how it works https://www.soul-source.co.uk/articles/soul-news/northern-soul-an-illustrated-history-out-now-competition-r2774 Acclaimed photographer and director Elaine Constantine has brought the movement to life in her film Northern Soul - and that film was the starting point for this book, Northern Soul: An Illustrated History. However, what started out as a project largely comprising of Constantine's stunning on-set photography, featuring her young, talented cast and highly authentic production, has turned into a unique illustrated history of Northern Soul. In its final form, the beautiful new photography holds the book together thematically, but its real depth lies in the material from the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s that Elaine and Gareth have researched and pulled together. The idea is that each day we offer a draw for one copy of the just released Northern Soul - An Illustrated History Competition To be entered in this draw .... all members have to do is each day like the relevant competition post eg this one today this is now day 3 day 1s winner was member jkw if he can drop me a pm - will get the 1st book off to him after the weekend day 2s winner was member pete s if he can drop me a pm - will get the 2nd book off to him after the weekend to enter just "like" this post and you are automatically in todays draw last day so last chance Easy ... just like away
