Well the newies places are gonna have to start covering up their best stuff to keep it a secret. Maybe the newies deejays will have to drop Frank Wilson on through their sets to catch the oldie infiltrators out who will then be frogmarched to the door by the newies fans in lab coats.

Okay you can have one mid tempo newie..........Your Love It Won Me Over-Cookie Scott on Orr..

Name them!!! Come on Upfront Newies Venues that play uptempo sixties/seventies to the dancefloor without ballads or mid tempo in the middle.

I think you misunderstood (I was taking the piss out of both sides newies/and oldies see the Tardis .....!!).I was asking for a list of uptempo northern soul newies that the Stoke crowd/oldies would accept.Re the above list. SPOT ON......but they have taken the best and nothing less..keep serving them up like this and there would be no problems. Every newies event in the Uk would be rammed with old fans listening to new sounds.

And a newies fan at the same time who has just discovered a rare acetate recorded in Detroit toilet with the same tempo as the funeral march

Hang on ..........Ive a picture of an oldies fan about to get on to the new coach to Wigan so he can discover new tunes like the above. Does evolution mean they will be digging Shep I'm Sittin in around 2040.....

Yeah but those deejays..Roberts/Levine/Chris King/Dewhirst/Searling had an understanding of what could be played and what couldn't and quality control (for the most part) was high. They understood what the kids that visited those venues wanted.They wanted uptempo danceable soul based on the Tamla Motown beat.Maybe it should be a return of back to basics and the drawing board.I think the oldies crowd would accept new sounds. Maybe not ten in a set but they would. What they wont accept are ten newies that are substandard and played just because they are rare or unreleased.Look at the Magic Touch (a great unreleased danceable record that became a classic and was played as a newie) that would go down a storm at any event.Joe Jama (another great danceable record that will become a northern soul anthem).I'm sorry but you can't talk about oldies/newies without picking examples.Oldies fans are perceived as prehistoric dinosaurs living off DILY and newies are tarred with they listen to any old new crap as long as its rare even if its a ballad.Can anyone list a load of newies that are uptempo and have a good production?

But what you have to realise is that a lot of the new stuff are old rejects that werent good enough to play out at the time and are being played out because they are rare.There's thousands of great soul records out there that are cheap/never been played/rare that are good records.A lot of it is to do with deejays who are playing to impress other deejays and not the most important people on the scene.....the paying punters/dancers.No wonder people who like oldies turn up to a night where newies are played and never return.Lady In Green....thank god it's so rare and places are ovo.It's a bad northern soul record.It might be a great doowop record but a northern soul record for dancing to I don't think so.When do newies become oldies?

Maybe this lot should be called in to sort everyone out https://www.kevinhealy.co.uk/the_soul_police.html

Or you could wear white on your scooter......(not on my GP though wouldn't last 5 minutes)

Here we go................trousers for your lambretta.

he could always wear trousers like these on his lambretta

theres this footage only a small clip though https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=di02cko2SMM

Now this a club I would attend.... a night of newly discovered uptempo northern soul dancers. I bet slowies are an end record as well and not halfway through a set.Are there any clubs that have a similar music policy?.Its either a night of worn out oldies or a night of midtempo/r&b/slowies and obscurities.Where is the middle ground?

Found this on youtube can't wait for it to be uncovered any ideas?

Any chance of a tape of any of these...Ive just signed up for some northern soul dance classes and Sharon told me to bring some tunes.

Is this record any good?, Is it dancer or a ballad?.Heard about it at Sharons Dance classes...I have just learnt the Mecca shuffle to Time by Edwin Starr.

Is That Long Enough For You- Seventies dancefloor perfection

Didnt Adey appear on some daytime TV programme about decorating and how to store his records......I remember someone telling me this once.

https://www.popsike.com/Heavy-Sound-100-Detroit-Sounds-Of-Friction-Im-Leaving/380136722981.html here we go.........a national marketplace.

As I said £241 it went for.Didn't see any frantic bidding. Didn't go for 300, 500 600 or the over a thousand mark I have heard.Maybe the hype has overtaken the value as I would have expected at least £500 for a vg on a supposed over £1k record.........who is fooling who.??E bay is a national marketplace and this rec ord doesnt even get a poxy £300 bid even in good condition.
