  1. Anyone have the above or heard of it, white group, dark red label. My brother had it in the 80's can't find a track of it on the net. I'm 100% on the title, 90% on the artist, possibly vondelles or similar, any help appreciated.
  2. Lot of opinions from folk on here who onna going out much anymore. I've had some great nights at venues over the north west and midlands over the last 18 months. Heard loads of fresh tunes and danced a lot. It's more social than it's been in the past, less clicky and there a better mix of male to female, Mr brother used to moan he felt he was at a gay disco in a soul night in the 80's. Some folk only want to hear their own definition of what NS is or can be, but as been pointed out before, it's not a genre, it's a dance music scene, and if its danced to it, it is NS! 60's Garage, funky soul, the stax sound and rhythm and blues all have heritage on the scene along with many other styles, their popularity has ebbed and flowed, some don't dig it. Sod em!
  3. Girlie power takes over the the effervescent horses nighter! Essential.
  4. Always something I've not heard before, always something fresh, just my favourite soul night.
  5. Some real class artists on that and that production!just wow.
  6. A very well put together piece. This venue has real heritage on the scene and deserves to be supported.
  7. can only see the red on discogs, last copy 800, in 2018.
  8. HBO, are usually on another level with the quality of output so looking forward to this
  9. Heard ted play a 'mountain of soul' at Keele, not sure if it's the same
  10. I'm not picking on Wigan, you make a fair point, some amazing records discovered there..
  11. I get it's all new to them, I loved oldies and the stuff Guy and Ion were playing when I first got into the scene. I still love oldies now, especially torch and wheel era. However I hated most of the poppy shite that was played at Wigan from the get go. I went, and still do, for music with bollox and an raw feel to it, not pop records or love boat music which is often what I hear associated with the 'apparently' burgeoning youth scene. I say apparently, because the clips I've seen frequently show the same handful of costumed actors dancing their (hands on!) hearts out, Surrounded by loads of pissed locals who possibly show at that venue every week for whatevers on. Now I may be way off the mark, I've not attended these events, but that's what it seems like to me.
  12. Very good point, the folk left on the scene, generally still are music focussed and obsessed, the youth version of the scene seems as happy to dance to Jimmy James or 'love don't come no stronger', as something rare, great and underplayed.
  13. Costume play acting, teddyfication. Let's face it there was always folk ready to blab about it, but now every new kid on the block has sommat to say. Kids searching for identity I can understand that, wanting to share it with all unsudary, I conna.
  14. Also Looking forward to hearing some Boss sounds in the back room courtesy of Mr Louca and the cold sweat crew.
  15. Nu soul sound of today? It's hey day was 20 years ago!
  16. First anniversary ahoy! Amazing live up representing a wife variety of genres, come and be faithful!
  17. Sadly many large venues have this policy now, at least it doesn't involve an app!
  18. Shaping up to be one of the best nighters this year. Quality line up, heritage venue with possibly the best sound system out there.
  19. Rob wrote quite an honest review of the artists career and I think he was spot on. I just played his hit, the guy probably only sings for 30 % of the record! However, I love IFAF, the package of his albeit limited vocals works well with the great instrumentation, and as a northern tune. The other artists you mention have great qualities but their own contextual reasons for rarity. They all do! It's should be a nuanced discussion with room for critical thoughts.
  20. Rob's points on the quality of the vocals are obviously relevant to the thread, as we speculate on if a record was actually released to the general public and why it my not have been. Comerciallity would have been the paramount factor!
  21. I've seen how good this site is with vague memories recollections before, always impressed. Thank you very much.
  22. It's bubby lamp guys, thanks for the help, now I need a copy! Thanks pal, it was indeed buddy!
  23. I'll check these, thanks I know this great tune but not the one Thanks but not the one
  24. Sorry to be so vague about this one. All the Lyrics I can recall are Tears come falling/ tumbling down my face Male vocal, quite raw sounding and possible early 64/65. Had it on a Stafford tape years ago, I've tried several songs with the that title to no avail. He bends the 'tears to sound 'te- he - he - ears, come falling down my face', I think Hope someone can help, thanks in advance.
