Seems to be a well talked about topic at the moment, I don't know anything really so perhaps you could post up a few tunes, don't think I could take a whole night of it tho Lenny

Yeah saw that mate, will wait to see what this site turns up cheers Lenny

Jnr Walker--Shake And Fingerpop--TMG 529 Must be at least EX and have original centre As always all "how much you want to pay" emails ignored Price with pm please, ta very much Lenny

For me it's probably due to the fact that I grew up in a house listening to Jackie Wilson, Ray Charles, The Drifters, Ben E King etc, all late 50s recordings, then when I started going to the clubs Stax/Motown had just started to make it's mark, so a natural progression for me, Lenny

I think Andy Dennison on here (dennisoul) has a contact number with him L

I have a Marv Johnson lp "I'll Pick a Rose For My Rose" on Regal Starline but is a Tamla Motown label, great album as well, 50pence from a charity shop years ago Lenny

Butch had one in his sales box at t'100 club a couple of weeks ago Lenny

Brilliant!

Lucky beggar! Lenny

MARY LOVE relisted due to timewasters Lenny

Just another little bump up

Agreed, it's not for the want of telling them either, I've emailed them dozens of times without any reply and even Pete wrote to them about the Kenny Burrell item but you get no reply or apology, the last time I emailed I told them they were just a load of spaced out hippies far to much up their own arses with prog rock and punk ... ...but for daft some reason I keep buying it..

Perhaps Andy....sorry Ady can offer help and put us out of our misery!

Just got this month's issue and believe it or not has a feature on northern soul, the usual shite but look out for a new guy on the scene who is pictured with Sam Dees his name is ANDY Croasdell , they just can't get anything soul wise right in that mag can they? Lenny

Fascinating stuff this...keep em coming Lenny

And me...a test pressing.. Lenny

A little bump Lenny

Interesting post...and I might add that in the short time on the NS scene I have to say that the Dundee crowd are still very loyal and travel all over Scotland and England to this day. Also the info about Alan Gorrie was interesting as well, in the 60ts here in Edinburgh he used to come down and perform in a band called Dream Police, Julian Covey's A Little Bit Hurt was their showpiece for what I can remember. Lenny

Got this on here recently (thanks Brad!), does anyone else rate this?, I think it's a fecking belter! will post up after this Lenny

Possibly a contender along with George Flemmons as the worst soul record ever made?, perhaps KR can do a northern soul WORST 500 book, these two would be Nos one and two! Lenny

I got £25 for my copy on Ebore a couple of years ago Pete, can't really think why I sold it...wish I hadn't now Lenny

We used to have fantastic all dayers on a Sunday at a club called McGoos here in Edinburgh, around 1966 we had JJ and Geno on that year, JJ was massive at the club and you simply could not move in the place when he was on, we are talking about a converted (large) cinema here, the thing that sticks out in my mind that day was Ain't Love Good, Ain't No Big Thing and to top it off Red Red Wine ended a day never to be forgotten by me. Geno simply tore the roof off the place with a non stop barrage of soul covers and a few of his own songs, of course back then you only got 45 -60 minutes and he crammed his set into a blistering finale with Que Sera...ahh those were the days my friend!....and to top this he is appearing at the Edinburgh Festival this year so might have to dig my Hand Clapping etc etc albums out! Just as a matter of interest does anyone know what is on the site of the old Flamingo Club in London? Lenny
