My Dear Heart - Shawn Robinson.

ah yes - I have "Sweet Memories" of that Tanner bloke.!!!!

Look here - massive list. https://www.whosampled.com/

Benny Curtis - "Qwerty Hearts"

Anything by The Monitors

Always loved Blackpool Casino at The Peasure Beach - remember dancing to G Davis & R Tyler played by Baz Stanton - had some great friday nights there.

There used to be one in our local park !!

The emergence of the "beat ballad" - 60s R&B being played - most of the good stomper tunes had been discovered & played before 1980.

Championed these 2 CDs many a time on here - IMO the best "Northern" comps ever to have been released. Worth getting for the unreleased Sharon Scott tracks alone - one of the reasons CDs should be allowed to be played at venues !!

Great tune - as is "Aint Gonna Make It Easy" by Mr Lewis.

Too Darn Soulful - Morris Chestnut I'm Catching On - Betty Lloyd If You & I Had Never Met - Magic Night & of course the aforementioned Wanted & Needed - Gwen Owens

Think it was actually bought for the other side - it's better.

"OTO" Original threads only !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No - it was Esther Phillips - "Catch Me I'm Falling"

Possibly my favourite record of the year & if we all lived by the OVO ethos we would never get to hear such gems as this - which would be just plain wrong !! BTW Ian - when did you get your download of this? If I got mine before you is my download more original? & I can produce documentary evidence if necessary .

"Love You Baby" - Eddie Parker on Ashford is acceptable. "Love You Baby" - Eddie Parker on Googa Mooga - acceptable or not ?

"The Hokey Cokey", "Auld Lang Syne" & not forgetting "Dancing Queen" by Abba are tunes that fill dancefloors worldwide !!!

Think Frank Wilson has seen more "Spencer's Action" than any other tune ever played - even gets played at Student Gigs - my son told me !!!

In the not so distant future a certain record by Frank Wilson may be leaving these shores - but it will not be the last time people dance to this tune at a venue near you - a copy/bootleg/re-issue/cassette/ DAT/Laptop/Minidisc/Memory Stick/Acetate or even an 8 track of "Do I Love You" will fill dance floors many more times than any "quality original £10 cheapie - that should be played "ever will. - FACT !!

Always been a "Harris" fan myself - have to look out for them "Hamilton's"

It's actually how many are in the venue - how many people there are on the dancefloor & how many people are enjoying themselves - that's what counts - because that is what realistically keeps the scene going. Matrix numbers & runout grooves never got people on a dancefloor - think you will find the sound coming out of the speakers ultimately does that.

Jackey Beavers - "I Need My Baby" & Carla Thomas - "I Play For Keeps"
