    Merry Christmas to all and to all a very merry Christmas and happy new year.

    Poor choice of words there. Just ‘Dave Rimmer off grid’ or sim might work better?

    Sad news Phil Shields long term member of Soul Source has passed away. His family were with him and he went peacefully. Phil had a great taste in music and was a resident DJ here at the Benn Hall Rugby allnighter. Rest in peace Phil.

    Might work better if they stuck to Wigans Ovation, or Nosmo King or sim, but not Ray. Don’t aim that high and balls it all up. Seeing Ray Pollard perform the Drifter live at the 100 Club made the hairs on the back of the neck stand up and we whooped with joy hearing his brilliant soaring soulful voice hit those high notes. Attempting to emulate such is beyond presumptuous and frankly quite wrong.

    Thanks for sharing. Takes me back.. We were more at risk of cancer from smoking back then as far more did then than do now. Talc usage at venues has declined over the years I’m sure. I’d be more concerned about the sugar in your tea than talc particles tbh..

    It really is, it’s got everything!

    Eighty seven hundred quid for VG! Geez. Does Soul Sam still have a copy?

    Well we are all entitled to our opinions. Thought some might have a more open minded approach, but I suppose folk get set in their ways and it’s oh so easy to jump on the bandwagon, sigh. To my mind and ear, it had a good intro, a good beat and great backing vocals. Chummy out front wouldn’t look out of place at the Kings Hall in his loafers, chinos & singlet. Yet it was awful, embarrassing, even the man from del monte had a say. Next time there’s someone crossover dirge being discussed, I’ll think of this thread.

    Unbearable? Embarrassing? I don’t see that as reasonable comment regarding this track. As has already been stated, it’s tons better than some of the Emporers new funk shite I’ve heard played out. Few band wagon jumpers on this thread.

    Bloody heathens! lol

    I only recently heard this on the radio. With its Javells sounding intro, my ears pricked up. I have to say I like it. They’re a UK outfit who’ve been around for a few years with quite a few releases. This for me has that Winehouse Rehab impact and I’d be interested to hear your thoughts.

    When she was younger, my dear wife thought Lipstick Traces by the O’Jays was “lipstick Tracey”

    VG+ copy sold last month just over a grand. Bit of a bargain. Always thought it was a money sound.

    Scarcely seen. Even less so is the ‘kids edit’. Same track, but with children singing along. Interested to know more on this version.

    My favourite group and my favourite track, lead by Paul Williams. Never been 100% that he killed himself. Talk of foul play. Sad loss of a tortured soul.

    Get well soon Mark. Regards Simsy.

    Yet to be mentioned is the fantastic Rita & the Tiaras - Out of your life c/u. Along with Chuck Jackson & Jean Carter, these would be my top three.

    On the flip side of ‘what’s your name’ by Don & Juan on BIGTOP is this 1961 Groover - Chicken Necks (or ‘chicken hex’ as my little lad used to say).

    Shocked and saddened to hear this news today. R.I.P Carl.
  23. Simsy
    I know the Montclairs is 69, but always thought of as a modern sound. A few more killers I’ll never own..
  24. Simsy
    Yup aware of that. Shrine release not the sort of thing that could be played out and may serve to increase the value of my Jet Set copy. Happy days.

    Little bit surprised to see the inclusion of Barbara Long, as WCIL wasn’t on Shrine.
