Not a celebrity but recently read the boxer Carl Froch's autobiography and in it he says his dad got nicked a couple of times for pinching cars to get to 'Northern Soul do's' in the Midlands back in the 70's.
To mark the NHS’s 70th birthday on 5th July, they’re asking the public to submit their favourite health service songs.
To get involved, tweet your song suggestion with #SongsForTheNHS
To start the ball rolling;
I Need You. Shane Martin.
I Don't Need No Doctor Ray Charles.
The Next In Line. Hoagy Lands
I think that was more to do with the timeline of the tunes at Wigan rather than it not actually being played there at all, always under the impression it was a late Wigan spin.
Now, how much action did that alley see over the years? That's without mentioning the fire escape the bouncers would open and charge a pound to let you in through!
I Think the Detroit Emeralds appeared more than once, seem to remember them playing late 70's, the above poster has the allnighter starting at 2.am with only 3 regular (one being Kev who left in 75?) Djs named, putting it towards the beginning.
All the factors being checked could be produced, but there's probably only three people who now have the ability to check those factors, JM and the owners of the two copies!
He's not doubting that the copy is an original, he's taking dimensions from that one so if a counterfeit appears he could check materix numbers (distance between) weight, thickness etc and could then confirm it as such.
Was the copy on the video the copy Kenny Burrel owned?
If so I recal him saying on you tube somewhere that he played his copy out all the time when he had it, and no doubt he would have been asked to play it everytime he dj'd, yet JM described it as Mint minus?
