  1. Eat 4 shredded wheat and you too can dance till dawn……………….. Yet another low point, how much more can a person take
  2. She's pretty good I reckon
  3. My advice? Don't think you have to wear a uniform to be a part of it, you don't. Just dress like any other 20 year old. Vinyl wise, the scene is built on original records and there are plenty of cheaper end ones to get your teeth into for a start, plus some good reissue labels like kent. Don't buy any of those shite modern bootlegs that are all over ebay. Find a local venue that suits you and get out and enjoy yourself, thats what its all about - don't take it too seriously BUT take time to learn the way of things. All the best with it
  4. I'm with Bazza, isn't it a slightly different version on the advert?
  5. Never seen him, is he still selling on there? Alan is the only record seller I'm aware of in recent years on the market
  6. He hasn't sold anything for 30p in the last 6 years mate, £2 yes but 30p no…..
  7. I first heard it on a tape in the early 80s ( see my post in the "Er Youth" thread ) can't recall ever hearing it played out though
  8. I'm with you mate
  9. These are from the early 80s, still got the tapes & play em in the car occasionally.
  10. Easy one for me, the Four Perfections live at Radcliffe… just magic
  11. Fabulous playlist, could you find a better one..? I doubt it
  12. please end this thread…………...
  13. I reckon that would have been slightly later, can't remember such things being played in late 79 and I didn't go in 1980
  14. You're probably right but I'm Not built This Way is probably one of the least forgotten records I can think of so it seems strange to post it in a thread about forgotten records. BTW giving your opinions is what this is all about, don't take offence
  15. Hardly a forgotten record is it?
  16. No its not
  17. The world's full of idiots…………..both buyers and sellers. Makes you want to pack in and leave em to it
  18. Robb thats a bit unfair, if it hadn't been for us in the UK the vast majority of this music would have been unheard, unrecognised and lost in the mists of time. Fair enough, there might be some in the US who collect and love the records but surely in the grand scheme of things they are a small part of the world wide exposure that the music has had due to the Uk soul scene?
  19. Exactly, many people returned in the 90s or later with no knowledge of the records that were played after the mid-70s. Nearly 20 years later and most of them are still unaware……. apologies though - don't want to deflect the thread. We've been around that tree enough times in the past
  20. And me, nothing to be embarrassed about
  21. The soundtrack of my time at Wigan, scandalous that most of these records have been neglected by the oldies scene over the last 20 years - I'd love have a night out with the records played based on this period
  22. I'll be saving the whole lot somewhere as a definitive list of what was played at Wigan. Sterling work Pete
  23. I bet no one else has had their membership card stolen by a burglar Mine was blue BTW, still got the blues & soul with the page cut out… 1978
  24. I'd like to hear that story mate
  25. He's kept that quiet for nearly 40 years
