Had to smile when I saw this thread & thought "Cluggy is not happy about Cleggy" :o))) I see where you're coming from Mark (Cluggy) & I'm sure everything will work out fine on the night. See you & everyone else (good or naughty lol) in lovely Cleethorpes for the 20th year anniversary !! Yippee!! Regards Ali x

Only saw them for a second, but it looked like the Supremes to me, or were they The Primettes then?

Incredible he was, & it amazed me even more how he did it so effortlessly, while sitting down in his comfy chair (alright it was a throne, but not very nice of me to say he did it so effortlessly while sitting on the throne) Most singers have to be standing up to belt it out, not King Solomon Will you tell Annette I said Hi x

Apologies Graham, I've just watched it for the second time tonight & he did slip one in :o) Regards Ali

I like that term .... ridiculously good !!! Sums it up in a nutshell ( gonna have to nick that term at some point in the future lol)

Pure Sex to me ;o) & Pure Stax to you guys :o) Can't recall any back drops? Plenty of fancy footwork, hip action, powerful vocals, & lots & lots of sweat ... Beautiful !!! (Right, I'm going to have to stop thinking, or writing about their performance lolol) What a great Friday night in with BBC4 !! Ali

Agree, The Big O documentary was excellent! and Oh my giddy aunt, Sam & Daves performance was jaw dropping .... Pure Sex!!! (I'm allowed to say that, it's after the watershed) I'm loving it all!!

Your middle paragraph made me smile as it reminds me of the first (& last time) I took my older sister to a Northern Soul do. It was early on in the night, & no one was dancing, then this one girl gets up & dances. My sister nudges me, & says "ooh look at her, she doesn't half love herself, dancing there on her own, look at her" (the girl didn't love herself as it happens, she was simply dancing to the music) I almost wet myself laughing, & explained to my sister that Soul folk do dance on their own (granted, I wouldn't have taken to that empty dancefloor like she did, but that's only cos I'm a shxt dancer lol) Regards Ali

Ow do Peter :o) Totally agree that INL was played & played back in the day (& rightly so!) & I was mad on it then, but I'm getting soft in my old age & prefer EM now .......... would still dance to them both now, but EM pulls at my heartstrings whereas INL pulls at my memories Ali x

I actually prefer "Everything Man". Both great records, without a doubt!! & I've worn many dancefloors out to "I need Love" but "Everything Man" has that little special something, well it does for me anyway :o)

Ain't got a clue, but I've done your ironing lolol
