Watched the rather excellent 'Standing in the shadows of Motown' the other night, fully expecting our man Choker to get a mention, but nowt! I know the Funk Brothers were the Funk Brothers etc and Choker Campbell and his band had been around since the dawn of time and ended up at Motown. However beyond that I'm a little hazy on the subject. Any more info from CC experts warmly welcomed.

Agreed. He may have worn a dress and sandals at Woodstock, but that's the better version.

Way I see it, it's a question of everything in moderation.

Not sure mate. Wondering if this thread might go better in 'Look at Your Box' section?

I'm sure he'd be glad to fill you in when he's back from his hols.

Yeah he is a bit isn't he? Always looked so good for his age as well. Not quite as svelte as this pic with me in the 100, few year's back ... -
Picked up a couple of bits blind at a record fare not so long back. One was a KAPP demo (can't remember artist or title) but looked the part. Other was by the Sandpipers. Both were appalling.

I heard he had a bunch of acetates he dj'd with or something. Jon may know more ...

Bloody hell mate! Nearly fell off me chair when I saw this old story at the top of the list. You the man for those lyrical decipherings.. Was another one I was thinking of the other day .. Ah it'll come back to me. Great tho' and post # 3 on this thread is the second funniest thing I've ever read on here!

yes yes yes ... Full thingy was Whistle Test - Blackburn Allnighter doc; "It is it's a feeling, can't really put it in to words, just that nothing else grips yer heart like soul music does". Yep time for a 'Friday Pos Bump' I fancied ..
-
Yes .. "Nothing else grips yer heart like soul music does". Remember it well.
-
Yeah it's kinda big .. This thread's where it's at for sure. Just been in 'Proper Soulies' .. What with that and other miz threads, oh dear oh dear .. No, looking at the Vontastics and Eddie Holland earlier on ebay and the excitement of pondering whether either or both should join the collection, gets the old collecting adrenaline juices going. So to speak. That and for reasons already stated, proves there's no future in being downbeat.

What a great post! This was what I was talking about Win.

I'm aware of the negatives of the scene that have been expressed in many recent threads. However, yes the music generally is enough to keep me feeling upbeat. Knowing that whatever venue I choose to go to, there's a good chance I can have a dance and be with like-minded friendly souls. A few beers, maybe come away with some vinyl - that's enough for me to want to keep my hand in indefinitely.

Yes yes yes. We need a shot in the arm of some niceness, I fancy.
