Fantastic mate, thank you

https://planetrecords.podbean.com/2009/06/22/old-new-known-unknown-northern/ I only really wanted to post these up using refosoul but it's still down so instead it's just a short podcast containing a few unknowns, lesser knowns, a couple of acetates and goodness knows what else. I don't know how many of these are well known, I'm sure some will be, a few definitely are, see if you can guess any. I'll do a track list soon as I have a second, probably be tomorrow morning. There's some really early stuff here as well as the usual mid 60's and I think one 70's too. The first track is a really great crossover track, and it's rare for me to utter those words :-)

You just need to glue it right on the edge of the record to hold it together

Maybe there'll be a new one in there!

In the thread about records you just don't get, Tony says he prefers The Moody Blues "Go Now" to Bessie Banks version; so do I, by a mile, but I wonder if anyone had listened to Georgie Fame's version of Sitting In The Park? I really like Billy Stewart, and his version is fantastic, but I think Georgie Fame's version is even better if thats possible. Am I deluded or does anyone else think so?

Thing is though, Jamaica Ska by Byron Lee (The Ska Kings) is actually a copy of Come On And Stop - and it's great!

I love the Rare Pleasure record but I remember it from when it came out and it was classed as 'disco'!

I don't know because I like loads of 70's records but I just class them as Northern Soul, things like Towaway Zone, Tell me Why, I'm Your Pimp, Anderson Brothers, Will Collins, Sexy Sugar Plum, Billy Woods, Stanley Woodruff, you know those records that were played side by side with the 60's ones when they were new releases etc. But if you ask for something in say the last 20 years I wouldn't be able to even quote a title for you. I think because the sound became so different to that which I liked, I couldn't follow it.

In reverse order 3: 2: 1: there you go

I think it fits into both genres. I love it, but this may be sacrilige, I prefer the version by Brother To Brother as that was the first one I ever heard.

The Dells - Stay in my corner is one. The aformentioned Bessie Banks is another. Can't stand Chain-Chain-Chain-Chain of Fools either.

HDH leave the rest behind

Is refosoul not working yet? Or the icons just not showing up?

Sorry to hijack this thread but it's the only one that will alow me to post! How do you start a new topic in any section? I've got nothing saying 'add topic'. I can add a reply to an existing thread.

Depends who you buy it off - 350/400 off me when I've got it...

Steve - thats a legal reissue - however, they made an incredible cock up and somehow managed to release the backing track without the vocal. So the vocal version never did come out on a pressing - it might have done in the last couple of years, but not back then.

His first solo stuff was on Philips actually...

Preben I asked exactly the same question 2 weeks ago, have a search for it, it's all explained there.

== Thanks Jim, made my day that has

Quite possibly Mick!

I'm trying to put together a Little Anthony podcast but just can't find a recording of this fantastic track anywhere - can anyone help please? many thanks pete
