Thanks for the link. A bit of a bummer really, as my TV recording finished at the end of Tainted Love so missed the DILY and the ending so thought I'd catch it on this, only to find it ends halfway through Tainted Love! Dam, I'll have to hang on in there now not knowing what I missed

Just listened to the 2nd half as I was out last night and what a way to start Sunday morning. A really enjoyable listen and a great tribute to some fine tunes done in a really professional way. Hats off to all involved. It must of been a great evening to all who were present at the Royal Albert Hall. Looking forward to seeing it when it becomes available and seeing the reaction of the audience. Good stuff

Only wish rat race or bari track was in the play list. Full orchestra blasting those out.....

Listening on the TV while I'm waiting to go to the local oldies night. The Drifter

One of the best soul cover bands out there must be Stax Of Soul. Not particularly NS but an aray of soul hits from Motown, Stax, Club Soul, Blues Brothers etc. Seen them a few times over the years and certainly get the audience moving to some great soul tunes. Been going for around 40 years now and always seem to sell out at most gigs they do. https://www.staxofsoul.co.uk/about

No mention of DILY or AOTR but looks worthy of a watch/listen https://www.bbc.co.uk/events/eq2z3d

Hope they enjoy the ride and still doing it in 50years time. And if they are, I wonder what they'll be saying about the "new breed" keeping the faith. Enjoy the music

Saw Chuck at the Great Yarmouth Weekender around 1990. A gent and a great singer/performer. R.I.P

Never used any substances at any soul night, nighter, dayer or weekender. Sometimes had an hours kip in a corner back in the day but never took anything to keep me awake for a week

A great snowy walk in the high Carneddau mountains in Snowdonia on Saturday.
