  1. WHAT THE .......? Sounding a little Giles Brandreth-like in Countdown's dictionary corner there Christian mate! Like i said......... GIVE YOUR HEAD A SHAKE!!
  2. First time i heard this it was Pat Brady who was playing it ......... 15 years ago or more. (now that's scary!) But Butch did play it though a few years back. FANTASTIC RECORD!!! And anyone saying this is lack lustre easy listening needs to give their head a shake! Pure Dynamite ......... end of!! Loads, Joan PS: Kenny Burrell plays it all the time - he's got Carl Fortnums old copy. And i believe he paid a good few thousand for it ........
  3. DEFINITELY GONNA BE THERE!!! CAN'T WAIT. SEE YA SATURDAY.......x
  4. Hi Lenny, It's on PRODIGAL sweetie, just thought i'd mention it........ Hope you're well x
  5. Hi Lenny, Yes, like my friend Hippo said, it's definitely Softouch on Prodigal. A subsidgery of Motown would you believe? FANTASTIC RECORD!! Have given this the odd spin or two myself the past few years. Only about £20 ...... ( just watch me get shot down in flames any minute for that valuation..)!! Well that's what it used to go for ........ Hope you are well anyway sweetie.....x
  6. TOP TOOON!!!!!!! Only released on 12" and as someone said before there are 3 other tracks on it. Gotta disagree with them all being good though. There's only one any good ....... IMO anyway!! I'd say £20 is very cheap - as you don't see it come up for sale very often. I paid £4 for mine ...... it was a good few years ago mind. ANYWAY GOOD LUCK IN GETTING ONE ....... QUICKLY AND CHEAPLY!! loads, Joan
  7. A hard one this......... but i suppose it has to be....... FIESTAS - THINK SMART - OLD TOWN Not the rarest record i know, but i grew up with this record and always dreamed of having one........ one day!! and now i have - always feel a bit proud when i play it! FEEL I GOTTA SAY SOMETHING ABOUT MR. OCONNORS FAVOURITE - PATTI LABELLE ......... YOU SAY IT'S BEEN 7 YEARS SINCE YOU PLAYED IT - WELL I HAVEN'T PLAYED IT SINCE THAT 'SOMEWHAT' CRAZY WEEKEND ............ I DAREN'T !!!!!!!!!!!! ps: Wasn't that the weekend we all went to the beach..... And Pete nearly got his hand bitten off by a crab??
  8. A good friend of ours sent us a record as a wedding present. And of course he used Royal Mail as the means of getting it to us. Well, the postman knocked and i went to answer the door...... JUST IN TIME TO SEE HIM BENDING IT NEARLY IN HALF TO GET IT TO FIT THROUGH THE LETTER BOX!!!!!!!!! ...... ?????????? !!! Loads, Joan
  9. Cheers mate! If you remember, and have a minute, can you dig it out ? Much appreciated! Loads, Joan Bet Danny still looks 15!!
  10. Thought i'd give it a go!! Anybody got any knowledge of Dave Warr? He shared a flat in Caledonian Rd, London with Danny Everard approx 15-20 years ago. (WOW......NOW THAT IS SCARY!!) From Cornwall originally, me thinks. Last i heard he'd moved down to Bournemouth ? with Sue. But i could be (and usually am) very wrong!! If anybody's in contact with him can they tell him i was asking after him please? And maybe ask him to get in touch? Would be top to know what he's been up to all these years. 20 years is a long time - and you don't half meet some people during that time....... some good and some not so good!! Dave is no.1 on my good list. Loads, Joan
  11. TOP RECORD!! ALWAYS PLAY THIS IN MY SPOT. IT'S ON 'LUAU' AND AS FOR PRICE - I HAVEN'T GOT A CLUE!! GOT MINE AT STAFFORD FOR £15 BUT THE WAY PRICES ARE AT THE MINUTE......??? GOOD LUCK - HOPE YOU GET ONE SOON (& CHEAP!!) LOADS, JOAN
  12. Does anybody out there remember LEICESTER ODFELLOWS allniter?? I can't believe the amount of people that look at me like i've lost the plot when i ask if they went there!! Ok ..... lost the plot years ago ..... but this was a MASSIVE NITER & can't understand why nobody ever mentions it!
  13. I didn't think Eddie Parker was too bad at Stafford - definitely a LOT better than he was at Gt. Yarmouth!!! Lorraine Chandler was certainly outstanding! Gotta say one of the best nighter's i've ever been to that one! and didn't he sing THE INSPIRATIONS - YOUR WISH IS MY COMMAND that night? and yes i remember Danny and co on stage!! Not too sure how good they sounded but definitely 10/10 for sheer entertainment!!
  14. WAS ALSO RELEASED ON RED ATLANTIC. That's what my copy's on. Probably a bit harder to get than on Cotillion. But what a top record .... Always give this a spin when i do a spot. FANTASTIC!! Good luck in getting one!
  15. "WHAT YOU GONNA DO ABOUT LOVE" Is, without doubt, THE best tune he recorded. Loads, Joan x

  22. And i felt it just wouldn't be right to let today pass without saying just a few words about this unforgetable man. MR. FRANK JACKSON As some of you will already know, it was the funeral of Frank Jackson today. And i felt it just wouldn't be right to let today pass without saying just a few words about this unforgetable man. Frank Jackson, has got to be one of the most humble, respected, dedicated, enthusiastic, kind,loved and most knowledgeable people this scene will ever know! His pure passion for soul music, the way he carried himself as a man, the way he so completely loved his wife Maureen and son Frankie and genuinely cared about those who were blessed with having him as a friend, will never be matched or equaled. He was one on his own....one fantastic guy! So wether you were lucky enough to know Frank Jackson or not is irrelevant. This man helped make the soul scene what it is today.... AND FOR THAT WE ARE ALL TRULY GRATEFUL!! Way to go Frank! Love you and miss you loads, Joan,Tony and all your many,many friends xxxxxxxxxxx Ps: Be sure to give that Lawson fella loads!!

  24. STAFFORD RANGERS FOOTBALL CLUB, STAFFORD. Last Friday night we travelled down to Stafford to a soul nite run by a very good friend of ours, Shute. We thought it would be a good night but instead it was an ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC NIGHT!! The music was incredible with Shute doing a TOP SPOT playing the likes of Eddie Daye & Four Bars (Shrine)- Guess who loves you - which i hadn't heard played in years and sounded mega!! And with the immense stature of the brilliant CARL WILLINGHAM as the guest the 3B's Soul trio couldn't lose! Haven't got a clue what 3B's stands for but it should be THE BIGGEST, THE BEST, THE B***OCKS!!! THIS SOUL NITE IS GONNA PUT STAFFORD BACK WHERE IT SHOULD BE - ON TOP!!! Well done lads..... See ya next month!! Loads, Joan xxx
  25. PETER HODGKINSON - "BIG HODGE" - A SAD, SAD DAY As a lot of you will already know, Peter Hodgkinson from Crewe, better known to everybody as "BIG HODGE", died last Thursday in hospital. His funeral is being held tomorrow, Thursday 19th August at Crewe Crematorium at 2pm. I'm sure i can speak for everyone when i say what a truly nice guy Hodge was. A big guy, for sure, in every sense of the word. His sheer love for life, for his wife and family, for the music and soul scene that was so important to him, and for those of us lucky enough to be his friends, will never be equalled. He will be surely missed. I would just like to say to his wife and family that our hearts and prayers are with you all.... now and always. Lots of Love and God Bless, Joan xxx
