Got it on Wand, as you say, Great Tune for not a lot T

It's been said many times, but it's still true Talent and Commercial success are not the same thing, ATB Tony

Here We Go Again-Jay & The Techniques. Quite a tune for the money T

The kind that makes you fall on your ar*e.... Oh, yeah. See what you mean. T

I cannot remember it being used at all before '74. I seem to recall it being mentioned in (possibly) one of the Black Music write ups, after that- it was every f*ckin where Tony

Well, You would !!! ATB T

Don't really get where you're coming from here, I cited the Lovemasters as a great cheap record-yes it has been around for ages-the Del Larks for example has probably been known a lot longer. However, I find it to be a sad commentary on the current state of affairs that just because somebody has decided that it's worthy of play it will "Go Big". Unfortunately, you are probably correct-it ain't always what's being played, it's who's playing it. Regards Tony

I am really liking this Salmon. Trust you're bringing it to Heywood- Could be tempted at the right price T

Just to confuse 'em " I Ain't Going Nowhere" Tony

Any one got the full lyrics to this ?? T

They buggered up "Lucky Lucky me" in a similar fashion.

Yep, it definitely Lacks ATB Tony

Well, I reckon it's all about individual taste. 3 of us appear to have some OK. Same rules apply. Pushing & Pulling-Lovemasters Tear Stained Face-Don Varner T

I'm in the minority so far.. T

Following a conversation I had earlier. Just suppose, you didn't know the relative values and you were hearing them for the first time, side by side You're Good enough For Me- Spyder Turner Job Opening- Del Larks You can only buy 1. Which one would you choose.?? Tony

I reckon we'll have to face it. There will never be a resolution. As long as people can buy the big tunes for pennies they will continue to put on, imo, substandard events to cash in on the nostalgia scene. As I pointed out in another thread in one weekend alone there were 92 do's, often 3 or 4 within half an hour or so of each other,was each one so much better than the other that it just had to go ahead ?? If that was whittled down to the places that had, for want of a better word, integrity. would Joe Punter have been worse off.?? Could he not dance, drink, meet mates??-chances are he'd meet more of 'em. Might hear the odd one or two things he didn't know, but liked. As well as hearing some he knew but didn't like. Most of us who voted recently said that we like to hear a mixture of sounds. As I said, the Cash In merchants have a lot to answer for. ATB Tony

And the reason they can't do that in a venue that plays originals, is ??? What Russ is driving at-I think- is that the scene has been devalued by so many venues being able to get their hands on so many of the big tunes that have been booted, it's no longer Special. There are enough DJ's out there with the real deal to cater for this market, why do folk want to water it down, just because they can?? Too many in it for a fast buck Box of Pressings Cheap room Sh*t System £5 on the door 50+ in nice bit of pocket money. ATB Tony

It was late. I was tired. And there is a bit of a similarity. T

Aren't you glad I told you that. Titled as "Land of Broken Hearts" ATB T

Now I think about it Scratch mine. T

Looks like Lou Rawls-Breaking My Back to me. ATB Tony

Just had this conversation with Salmon. Also, instro of "Get Out of My heart" Good ole major Bill eh?? Oh, tony short for Anthony.. P first letter of last name.. simples T

Happy to shut this down now if it's run its course. ( next one "only 104 doo's coming soon ) Tony PS Where's the button gone ??

Think I'm with you on this one Joan-certainly in the dimished ego dept . I can see what is meant by if you want to know-go. But looking over past play lists helps to give you a feel of the night in question and whether it's up your street or not. Furthermore, if you don't know half of what's listed-chances are they're originals ATB Tony

Came out a few times did it not- I have it on the flip of the wonderful Love & War -Lee Rogers ATB Tony
