New to me as is the flip! Ed

Fall in love surely has to be in most 'dancers' top 10. Bobby RIP, you inspired a generation into getting out on the floor. Ed

I can just about pick out one or two 'mumbles' that could be lend a hand or something like that by the backing singers. If anybody can hear more, and clearly, I'm jealous! Must be the worst choice of title from all the words mentioned, and its an ABC production!. One thing for sure if it was 'booted' it would not be titled 'lend a hand' Ed

And for a soulful twist........Look out for Roberta Flacks version! Appropriate lyrics in the Trump Era. What goes around, eh? "Compared To What" Love the lie and lie the love Hangin' on, with a push and shove Possession is the motivation That is hangin' up the God-damn nation Looks like we always end up in a rut (everybody now!) Tryin' to make it real - compared to what? Slaughterhouse is killin' hogs Twisted children killin' frogs Poor dumb rednecks rollin' logs Tired old ladies kissin' dogs Hate the human, love that stinking mutt (I can't stand it!) Try to make it real - compared to what? The President, he's got his war Folks don't know just what it's for Nobody gives us rhyme or reason Have one doubt, they call it treason We're chicken-feathers, all without one gut (God damn it!) Tryin' to make it real - compared to what? (Sock it to me, now) Church on Sunday, sleep and nod Tryin' to duck the wrath of God Preacher's fillin' us with fright Tryin' to tell us what he thinks is right He really got to be some kind of nut (I can't use it!) Tryin' to make it real - compared to what? Where's that bee and where's that honey? Where's my God and where's my money Unreal values, crass distortion Unwed mothers need abortion Kind of brings to mind ol' young King Tut (He did it now) Tried to make it real - compared to what?!

I always thought this was actually miss-labled! I'd also love to know at what point exactly Lend A hand is mentioned in the Bobby Hutton classic. Ed

Are there actually any 'top rarities' where there is only the one copy? A millionaire could not afford to buy the top 500 rarities............probably. What recession? Ed

String vest's back in then................ Ed

Just like our music, this alcoholic beverage is not everyone's 'cup of tea'........ Ed

The only one liner chat up line you will need........ Seasons greetings. Ed

Cleethorpes Winter Gardens 1976, and a month before my 15th Birthday......................went along with the bigger boys. Massive Massive Massive - Flirtations - Little Darling. At least 3 or 4 plays during the night. Accompanied by Jeanette Harper, Rain, and Blanche Carter. Of course as a young un, the poppy tunes were always the easiest to remember! Ed

Never heard this played outside my stax comp LP............back in the day. Ed

Where's the talc? Not much beer spilt on that Dancefloor:) Ed

You learn something everyday don't you! Never knew 'toast to the lady' was actually by 'Frank'............So glad I met him, shook his hand, and said thank you! What a talent indeed. Ed

Interesting how each aspect of why 'the Northern Soul scene is what it is' gets the microscope treatment, and its more predictable due to circumstance than unique due to the product. Somehow spoils the concept that it was just a series of unintentional coincidences that brought it all together! I'm sure they are right, and I am wrong, but I prefer my theory. KTF Ed

https://www.discogs.com/Arthur-Willis-And-The-Soulful-Dynamics-The-Hurting-Is-Over/release/4435927 works for me.......... Hope this link is allowed:) Ed

Saw it in New York and it was packed..................A good show. As with all stories, with time they get 'fuzzy' so don't take it too literally. Always t shirts and cd's to buy at the end, but you wont find any rare stuff! Ed

This record has served its purpose.........fool me once etc. Gary Lewis and his fan daby dozi playboys filled the dancefloor's as well, but it's not in many folks top 15,000 now.......... Stick to the formula and you can't go wrong, stray a little and expect the unexpected. It was once estimated that there are 27,000 acceptable toon's to pick from and still be an 'ok kinda guy'......... Give or take a few, that's about 26,500 underplayed 'acceptable' toon's that would not cause grief!! Stick to the right side of town! Ed

I hope this is a success.....and it goes national and international! If anybody can define why this scene is what it is.............spread the word..............and ensure it continues for years to come. Ed
