Read Karen's response after your post.

That dance should go down a storm in Bristol.

Look at the film clip to the new Chicken Run movie Levanna has uploaded to Tic Tok some nice spins and things at the end of the routine from the chicken. It will have some spitting feathers and clucking.

Great track, some nice midtempo tracks on the lp too including the one below.

Songwriters signed to contracts, producers and arrangers signed to Contracts, Artists and the musicians all signed to contracts , so I would assume they were left to make music and then the powers that be decided which tracks made it to singles then to the lp tracks. Does seem a lot of great tracks never made it to record but it would be cheaper to can any tracks that the production control thought not suitable for release than to take a punt and put them into production and incur the cost of pressing the records , distribution and promotion only to be left in the deletion bins. And we probably do not appreciate how many records were be released in Detroit on umpteen labels alone every week during the Motown golden years, the record buyers had a treasure trove of soul music to buy but only so much money to spend.

On the album below too. Otis Clay "The Onderful Masters" , vinyl lp.on Charly

Love the lyric to this one especially the line that goes - "Don't worry about the kids , I,ll treat em kind , after all half of them are mine ".

That ad was quite good, a play on Quadrophenia but tastefully done and no p?ss taking

I was never a great dancer but what I did was feel the music and as Pete says above it does transport you to another place for that 2 minutes or so. What we see today is over the top dramatics talc thrown about as though it is going out of fashion all for the camera , sad that it as come to this.

Sorry to say its the new line dancing, been watching a few videos of old nighters from the 80s 90s and the great dancers on there are few and far between but you could tell they all felt the music unlike the venues these learners will be attending, fake dancing, fake handshakes and stupid clothes.

Jackie Wilson and Lavern Baker " Think Twice " x version sounds like they had a gas in the studio and funny as f*?k Thought twice lol and decided not to upload.

Best place for it is the Motown Museum but I would not think the powers that be have much interest in a record they had no desire to release.

Northern Soul Dance Lessons Professional Teacher Of Dance. Maybe ?

It must be the most heard rare record ever made I could go in any local pub playing piped music and hear it every time I went in and i know it's time for a p*** when it comes on , i honestly do not see the point in wanting to own it.

He paid crazy money for it , holy grail record more like holy f**k not again.

This won,t change - Lester Tipton.

Yes we throw the turkey leftovers at the wall when we come in from Boxing Day football when our team has lost .

Thanks I will take that as a compliment I am 68 and never tried the stuff or heard of in darkest Yorkshire,

Impossible to answer , unless you are a fortune teller. But I am surprised that people think that there is going to be loads kids getting in to music that was mainly made In the 60s/70s the very thing about kids is they want something fresh and exciting. Would we have turned up at Wigan etc if it was full of 60 year olds. Kids might listen to the music on YouTube but that may be it and the format of vinyl will be of little significance to most. Even me as a long time buyer of records 50 years I have no interest in purchasing records anymore , CDs streaming is my format now. Obviously there is kids out there on the scene but they will be a minority. It would be nice though to get an opinion of the younger generation of supporters of the music but there does not seem to be many on here to get any feedback.

Probably be better starting a thread aimed at the teens up to about 30 years old not at the older generations who have been in to the music and scene for decades. Because if not it will be the same as most of your topics just go round in circles and get nowhere.

Been having a Clarence Carter season lately some great stuff amongst his body of work , this one is a favourite of mine .

Whenever life gets a little tough I always put this on for a bit of strength and Inspiration and it seems to work.

Great album , still sounds great today and relevant , Curtis was a genius , love this off the album -
