The Ben E King version is excellent - big tune at Burnley Bank Hall Miners in the early 80s.

List Of All The Songs Copied By 60S Bands To Make Their Names
Epic replied to Sceneman's topic in All About the SOUL
The Rolling Stones "It's All Over Now" written by Bobby & Shirley Womack & first recorded by The Valentinos must be one of the most successful cover tunes - it was Mick & the boys first number one !!! -

PM'd you -
One of the last "traditional" Northern tunes played by CC at The Mecca & what a corker of a record it is !!! Does it ever get played these days or is everybody still talking about the girl across the street ?

Is it the "unreleased" one on the Anthology CD https://www.play.com/Music/CD/4-/11554946/The-Motown-Anthology/Product.html
-
......................... when these new releases become scarce in a few years time - that is when people will be bothered. A bit like the 70s when you could buy Ujima, Bill Brandon, Corey Blake etc. for less than a quid as new releases.

Bobby Womack ????

Bob Sinclair & Two Step in one post !!! That would be a poser for Room 101. It's called Two Step because of the distance you go from your chair..... in case you get a little tired !!!
-
Two Step is music that should be played on a radio show, on your sound system at home or maybe in the car. It was never intended to be danced to !!!
-
So sad - thankyou for the music Mel - "She'll Come Running Back" is one of THE records for me - RIP sir.

The Highland Room ceased playing rare & Northern Soul at least 2 years before these records were played !!!!
-
The problem with all this is that everything "good, bad or indifferent" always gravitates to Wigan Casino. It was a club which lasted 8 years in a scene which spans over 40 years. My take is that Wigan 73-74 was still heavily influenced by The Torch & Blackpool Mecca - the "golden" era for Northern Soul IMHO. 1975-1979 the scene had then ceased to be underground & "the beat" took over - lots of what I thought unacceptable tunes being played. Last 2 years of Wigan Richard managed to drag it back from "the abyss" & some great records were indeed played there.
-
It's all just soul music to me - too many tags put on the music. Lots of fantastic soul music being released today - why is there a need of a 30 year void before it is appreciated !!
