The Obscure Sub-Genres Of The Soul Spectrum
Go on then I'll have a stab at some.. Northern Soul = Much maligned term nowadays, but, basically an umbrella to include the best tunes from a multitude of sources. Popcorn= Shyte, a term to describe barrell scraping to find Nothern Soul when it doesn't work. Tittyshaker-- Over 50 geezer in a vest trying to dance like he did 30+ years ago New Breed- " Mod" music, usually championed by "mods" who were punks until they saw Quadrophenia. Crossover= ????? Who Knows. Hope that helps Tony

Help Identifying A Track - Detroit?
Don't know that version-but it should sound familiar... it's from the Opera "Carmen" and it's called Habanera ATB Tony

Well, yes and no.. Criticism can be useful, so long as it's not just a nasty dig or that the critic has an agenda.... Tony

Too Many Venues
Yep, that's the one that gets up my arras-a lot-why are nights considered less valid than allnighters?? There is more than one allnighter that is an Oldies fest, just as there is more than one Soul night that is anything but.... Tony

Wedding Tracks?
Not really northen but, one that always brings a lump to my throat and the merest glisten of a teardrop to my rheumy old eyes because it reminds me of my own wedding day in so many subtle ways. Carl Douglas Kung Fu Fighting !!! T

On Today's Soul/nighter Scene
Bigger than ever ?? Kinda doubt that.. at it's peak in mid 70's-Wigan-Cleethorpes- etc on a WEEKLY basis. Any road back to the music, as all have said before too much division nowadays in styles R&B, Crossover,oldies.. whatever... back to basics say I.. just select the best each "genre " has to offer and call it Northern Soul.

Some Records That Will Never Be Listed In A Price Guide?
My opinion, and for me only, things like this date stamps, radio station stamps only add to the authenticity and don't mind seeing that at all. Names etc written on the labels do bug me a bit, but so long as it's playable, not that much. I reckon it depends on why you buy 'em- I buy to play 'em, not to look at. ATB Tony

Dj's I Wanna Hear Out More At Allnighters
Slight clean of me glasses needed-didn't see the All nighter bit So it that case, what's a decent time slot at an allnighter then now that Time release spansules are a rarity. T

Dj's I Wanna Hear Out More At Allnighters
Now this is the second post that has mentioned decent timings--Are you really saying that Clubs book DJ's and then give them the Sh*t times--I don't get that one. At Heywood, best times are between 10.30 and 12.30 I can assure you that spots in that time slot Steve ALWAYS earmarks for the Guests. ATB tony
