And I thought that you were more a fan of Bury black pudding

Quantrells - Cant let you break my heart/show me the game of love - two great sides from legendary penman George Macgregor who believe it or not now specialises in sausage making honest! Surface marks VG+ 75 https://arcticsoul.net/sales65/quantrells.wma Do I get free sausages if I buy this one?

Mr Bicknell's played this one at New Century recently

Mmm, it's all clear now where your cat gets it from

I worry about you Steve

I'm gonna stick up for Steve here because I think that some of you have got him completely wrong. As he keeps saying thoughout the post, EACH TO THEIR OWN! He may not like this kind of event personally but he knows some people do. Steve has been on the scene for 25 years , and maybe because his circumstances differ to some of yours, he doesn't always want to go out and hear records he's heard thousands of times over the last 20 years. Perhaps when some of you returnees have been back for a couple of years you'll get sick of hearing the Northern Soul top 500 and change direction. But that's up to you. I'm not sure I get you anyway? I could class myself as a returnee, having been on the scene on and off for 20 years, a bit Like Chrissieo-having been in crap relationships had children etc and only really dipped in and out from around 1992 - 2004 when I started going out again more regularly (but still sometimes only once a month or so..) . But I still avoid the Northern Soul nostalgia nights because I wanna hear something NEW. That's the whole point of music isn't it? Do chart music fans want to lsiten to the hits of 1994 for the rest of their lives? Probably not, so why should we (who, obviously have better taste because we like soul music to start with...) do similar? And after you've finished dissing Steve, maybe you should meet him sometime, you wouldn't meet a nicer chap, more dedicated to this scene of ours than anybody else on this forum and not elitist in any way

I've been to Glastonbury a couple of times, including the year it rained for 4 days but still had a great time. However, I was nearly 10 years younger and alcohol does help when you're covered in mud from head to toe! And the toilets! I really don't want to talk about them-your average lav at your average soul club would suit her majesty in comparison. But a great laugh nevertheless-and, if the experience was combined with a bit of soul music, I'd give it a go, I mean could camping in a field really be worse than a chalet at Prestatyn?

Anybody remember Chris Carr from Manchester, a Morecambe regular? He's not so well at the moment and I told him Morecambe was being discussed on here so he asked me to see if anybody remembered him. If you don't remember his name, you may remember his get up....headband, no top, shorts...and it was always wise to keep your distance from him on the dancefloor if you wanted to avoid serious injury from one of his mad spins. He sometimes comes down to the Mint Lounge in Manchester and not a night goes by without him mentioning Morecambe Pier.

Ah, I bet you got up tho didn't ya? If I'd known you liked it I'd have let you have my copy-unfortunately I gave it to Chris Carr a couple of months ago as he said it reminded him of trips to space

KIngs' Hall....

Ah, didn't read your bit about instrumentals-good point as most are crap and/or not soul music (IMO of course, this is a democracy..) OkayI'll go for Gentlemen and their Lady-Like her ( both the vocal and the instrumental versions..).

Astral Trip- Mystic Moods.....ooh that's nasty :angry:

Steve, but you said you'd leave me your copy of the Casualeers?

You're a lover not a fighter aren't you Shane....

Ken, he's in Canada and he doesn't have the time to check out this forum-he sends the list to his subscribers, Mike puts it on here and he either sells em or he doesn't. When he's back over here he, occasionally, sells stuff at venues. I keep an eye out for him because he asks me to-plus there's an email address on there if you want to ask him owt. Maybe you do know him-he used to go to the 100 club regularly with Mr Bicknell before he buggered off to Canada.

I've told him, didn't jump when I played it tho so can't understand why the soundfile. If anybody wants another soundfile just PM me and I'll get one for you

I haven't met him but he calls people c**ts a lot on here too...so sounds like a nice chap

I've listened to this and it's not for anybody who owns more than a couple or Wigan Cds and a copy of the Big Wheel of Motown To be honest Russ's show on GMR is better..not so much the music (well the music is slightly better) , but mainly the good old giggle you get listening to it guessing how many times he can mention the Casino in one sentence. Mark Bicknell's show's the best IMO But hey, each to their own

Readers wives?? LOL Thank goodness you didn't say Northern Soul readers' husbands...now that would be scary!! Ron from Sheffield posing in just a beer towel...

And if you've got bad eyes then you may not notice When you do the Soul source with a cat called Otis....

As long as your "mate" doesn't add any more verses....then I'm not offended......yet But not so sure what to make of: Joe Orton likes to shave them smooth Doo wop and country boy, f"ck that rare groove Things you learn about people

What's happened to ktf download...it's been closed for maintenance for 4-6 hours for the last 3 weeks??

Love that Ann Caudell one. I've got this on at the moment...

The tempatation to reverse over him before I drove off was hard to resist! And I won't tell you what I said to him or Mike'll tell me off
