  1. furry muff ...
  2. A very well thought out post there! So an NS track with an unquestionably danceable beat and soulful vocal and that is crap is it? How did/does Tony Galla ever get plays.. What of Joey Delernzo??
  3. Read Pete's reply. He made the point I was going to. Page 1!
  4. Chalky said there are plenty of records folk would rather re-energise than this. That said there are plenty of records that are way crappier than wrong side of town, which in my opinion and plenty of others if they were honest, is a good record.
  5. I've got a feeling there's a rounder more heartier clap in the North than here in the flaky South.
  6. If I could go back to my optimum clapping time, it would be at the Fleet in 85' and Freddie Chavez would be the coolest clapper, closely followed by Jerry Williams. I'm just glad I was there when clapping was still with the majority. Simsy's Proposed NS Decade Clapometer; 1977 - 98% 1987 - 78% 1997 - 58% 2007 - 38% Save our claps, keep the fist ..
  7. Anything that raises clapping awareness is a good thing Len. We'll never get the old days back, but lest we forget..
  8. I was going to say Jean Carter - I wanna know on DECCA, but it's on there! One off Decca acetates on YouTube, whatever next!
  9. Wow my old clapping thread, I'd forgotten about this.. Reading the posts it seems that we're (mostly) still keen on clapping during a record. Though the reality still seems to be - that bloke over there starts it earnestly, then half a dozen or so others join in until it fizzles out. In the old days there were hundreds of us clapping in unison and that is what made the hair on the back of your hair etc..
  10. Being a soft Southerner and save for the beloved 100 Club, you have to head North for good music. There sure ain't no recognised 'Southern Soul' term/scene.. One of my faves was the Prestatyn trip a few years back. Saturday night only, lets head on up and see the Hesitations original line up! Only it wasn't the original line up, one was dead, one was a woman. After a brief kip in the car, we fecked off home. Things we do for soul?
  11. Merry Christmas to the Soul Source Team and all of our Members.
  12. Collections usually never come easy, same for all of us. I'd rather have an insurance payout and no records than no records and no payout though.
  13. Sorry to hear this. Just been reading this as a result
  14. It's a fact if I may quote Ian Levine. JRB passed away sadly.
  15. Edit. Nothing pos to say, say nowt.
  16. lol, nah, never the case mate. What a great set opener btw.
  17. Ah right. I won't say 'back in the day', but I thought you meant 70's. Top jocks those two the Bob, as you say sir.
  18. You might wanna sell that to me if you're not sure who it's by.
  19. Shifty?
  20. I think Gareth said it was/is Universal.
  21. 85 in cash and a pint at Bisley next week? Above secured my copy from a Soul Sourcer March 2012.
  22. Or possibly not and no reply, cough. Listed at 'VG' for a hundred and forty quid, I'll pass.
  23. Just seen Nige double post ..
  24. If you're searching on line mate, it's on 'Southern City' Do have a copy, but not too pro on parting with it, sorry.
