SHEFFSOUL

..take your pick of Bo Diddley cuts..played at the wheel , mojo etc..from '55

a mid seventies (74/75) spin was 'new jack theme'- Centuries...it was a Sheffield exclusive i think in that i only ever heard it played by John Vincent..not even the Casino had it..very fast and furious i seem to remember it was covered as the Gladiators 'that Miami sound'..

and his other ..testifyin'..remixed as 'Road to ruin' Earl Wright...

oh almost forgot...'Dress rehearsal' Van mcoy strings....and the original ( as spun at the casino in early 74) Footsee-sound of soul...there.. anyone wanna argue ?

DLA-'I need help'...stormin'....and i recently acquired 'the other side' 5 of a kind...i agree , there are hundreds..

i'll be heading to Charlotte for a while in a few weeks...any soul fans there..soul clubs..bars..clubs..live music etc...

i have the same...always thought it was orig as i bought it from Selecta late 73 i think..so must be an early boot and maybe on the scarce side?

..i had a copy late 70's..played it locally (Skegness)..didnt do much..

early to late 74 i have it on a tape from April ..interestingly KR is playing it..maybe Richards copy..took me a while to figure the artist/title and even longer to track a copy down..it goes on a bit..could stand a remix..

i remember Dean Parrish as a play late 73 early 74..i did post a topic asking when russ played DP as an ender..then i remember it became two last records..then finally 3 before 8...but i cant remember the dates to the chronology of the records..

have you got Run Baby -Dalton james and sutton..c/u as marshall bros..former richard spin...

bloody hell..remember all those..bullet was very popular but only for couple weeks..a russ spin..

ABKCO!!..no chance..if the Stones couldn't license their stuff thru Klein..

...do all the originals jump?..and if so were tone arms weighted when DJ's played them..I ask because i have somewhere a tape from Cleethorpes winter gdns 1975 i think ..Sam introduces the 45 as 'the only place thats got it' i assume he was the first DJ to own/play it and i cant remember it jumping on the tape..so was it a first press with weighted arm or second press?..just curious...

could explain away the mystery of half of Russ playlist from 1974

hmm...looks real...the text is clear..sim to Parkway....

white demo boot preferred..pms pls..

gotta be 73... 73 i'd say..jackie Moore was a great sound..selecta had loads for sale..

..great memories..off thread or not...

in actual fact..quite a few 'stopped going' after a remarkably short time..my first visits in early 74 i remember as being fantastic..with many Torch and a few Wheel boys..they were the first to desert..prob around/just after the first anniversary..whether it was age,or the soussan inst's, pop sounds..but they'd had enough..the scene was suddenly flooded with cheap mass produced badges (mostly ISC)..disco demand , soul galore..and when Tony Blackburn completely fluffed the northern soul intro on TOTP..the soul collection cringed!..personally i went most weeks up until 77 then missed a few..when i returned it seemed like a youth club..many of the old faces had disappeared..the records seemed to be more disco driven..and i thought all this for a 400 mile round trip?..f**k it!..i'm certain i had the best years of it..and packed it in before i had chance to resent it..as many have said..'you had to be there'..a completely different experience from todays scene..

cant remember Marsha gee being covered up..was a reg play at the casino..and VA_VA's before that..

well according to Levine..Midnight brew was covered up for approx 5 years..

yep..had John Bowie..thought it was great but not a floorfiller..

some great stuff!!!...but right clicked and didnt download?..how do i download it to my itunes?

has anyone a soundfile of 'there was a woman'?..
