The Poets I've Got Two Hearts played? I don't know one way or another, but I'm surprised (the boss, who went, didn't know it when I got it). A wondrous record either way. Dx

Northern Soul was and is a very broad church that can only really be defined as 'records that were/are played at venues that label themselves northern soul clubs'... Within that wide range are an extensive selection of once big, but utter sh*te pieces of vinyl of all colours and creeds, but at some point enough people must've thought that every one of them was good enough/danceable enough to become popular - 'sh*te yesterday, sh*te today, sh*te tomorrow'. The question is whether people are honest enough to admit a] their tastes change, b] we were all divs when we were young pups and c] it's easy to get swept up in the moment out on the floor, especially when you've necked half of Riker's monthly output. As for Do I Love You - I can tell you for a fact that Frank was embarrased by it and thought his voice was appalling and the production crap, coz he told us personally when we were ferrying him up to Blackpool. Dx

Frank Wilson was from LA

St Germain do some great stuff. Dx

Don't think this chap has been mentioned (you could do a whole CD of the different vocals he's done to this tune)...

Unless I've missed it, nobody's mentioned this... Or on the moddy/club side... ...Or : ) ...Or ...Or

Yes I remember the muscles on Jon Buck : ) Dx

The price of scrap aluminium nowadays you'll be quids in Pete! Dx

This goes beyond Good-Bad-Ugly to be genius...

Strangely, when Pete's dad died and we were sorting out his box of old army cap badges, mess cutlery etc in the bottom of the box we found one of these patches - Pete can't remember ever owning it and always hated patches (maybe someone gave it him and he chucked it out but Norman snaffled it as he was a right hoarder when it came to things like old bearings, mercury switches, bits of clocks, radio valves - and evidently northern soul patches).

The Good = Walk In My Shoes by the Magnificent Men The Bad = Walk In My Shoes by Gary Glenn The Ugly = Walk In My Shoes by Billie Davis

Really? It didn't turn up until about 86 as far as I remember (was it not the 86 anniversary single - maybe even 87, I forget). Dx

Good to know that some people still have no sense of humour...

Was a VERY big record for a while. Dx

Dreadful record with excellent credentials...

"Smokey the bear would pull out all his hair if he could see this heart of mine" For me about the best written set of lyrics is Joanna Garrett's 'Whole New Plan' - if you listen there's no repetition and it all rhymes beautifully with no filling. Dx

Gotta be Robert Parker's 'I Caught You In A Lie' - 'You said he was your cousin, but I found out that he wasn't'. Dx

It's All Over - Charles Mann on ABC

As I'm sure everyone knows, the album is stuffed with good stuff - Keep on Climbing's great - like Just Walk in My Shoes too (got spins at Wigan, but never stormed it). Dx

Got a fair amount of plays at Bradford courtesy of Pat Brady. Dx

This was played early on at the Wheel and on the mod scene I'm told. Dx

That'll give you a cheery ride home : ) Wonderous record though. Dx

Any Day Now. Dx

Bird Walking was booted/released as the Emanons Orchestra. Dx
