Ok for reference, I've had PM's confirming it was first played and broken by Dave Abbott and Sean Haydon, who both hammered it simultaneously to bring it to the attention of the wider scene. Thanks for the interest and contributions.

Thanks for the details, I've been told George Mahood or Adam lever were possibly the first in the UK to play/ own it, can anyone confirm? I know Ian wright covered it as the children of the night.

Willie Dale- let your light shine; who discovered this? Any additional information on the artist? I had a suggestion he's white😁. Not so sure myself. Found this from the Athens re issue, but who was the friend from Manchester? The Willie Dale 45 was discovered about 7 years ago. A good friend on the scene in Manchester won the first copy from ebay after which a few of us chased up the seller getting some of the (roughly) 5 or copies of the record ever to surface. What was a $500 record when it was unknown is now a $4000 after the Neo and Northern Soul scenes got hold of it. But less about the history what about the record, I could not fit this into any one genre; it is funk, soul, psyche and garage and rolled into one and one of the best discoveries in the last 15 years. Beyond essential

Thanks I thought I remembered a thread, I did search but struggled
-
Apologies if done before, but why do so many records on black ABC, USA, have gold paint dabbed on them? I assume it was some kind of method to denote old stock and cut out sales tax? But where, by who, I've come across loads over the years.

Rather excellent, thank you

Lost my voice this week but found it again now, it was hiding in the back yard! 🤣 Anyhow I won't be bellowing but I will be belting out a wide cross section of tunes tomorrow at the cygnet. Get thee sen down!

poor by the sound of it. It must be appealing to the much lauded youth market! What it needs is a young blonde girl to promote it!
-
I think that sums it up. The whole site is prehistoric but I fear any progressive challenges will have no benefit.
-
Anyone else having problems listing items, send me to some new search tool rather than just allowing me to list. Frustrating!

A real one off with a distinctive voice, that no-one could emulated.

That was my general point really, regarding, the term cultural appropriation is so rife for abuse.
-
Fair points, I haven't read him and I'm well ready to accept it's a lazy metaphor on my part.
-
It depends how much you want to dig really, is it cultural appropriation when a black picks up a guitar, an instrument invented by Caucasians? Marist theory has a funny way of making it's own rule up, don't you think? 🤔

I don't think anyone has any opposition to the punters at BSC, it's much more about the methods adopted by it's promotors and the message they've sent to the wider worl. The arrogance, ignorance and conceit.

Apologies folk it was pat Lewis s, not t Johnnie Mae! See below, brought a tear to my eye
-
Much deserved for George. I've searched but I saw a great clip of George, another parliaments group member and Johnnie Mae Mathews doing an accapella Heart trouble. Can anyone else share please?

Been looking ahead to the event and thinking what to play. The guys at ftmntc have always been supportive and encouraged me to try out fresh tunes. It's great that I've been able to take these sounds and establish them elsewhere, particularly at the gathering where many have become firm favourites with the dancers. Expect to hear many of these now established sounds along with some new and interesting tunes that I believe will become established over the next year at the gathering.
