Ermie___Ed.mp3 Whilst having a sort out - came accross this... Can anyone please help fill in the details.. like Track title, label, value etc.... Thanks in anticipation

I guessed as much ... but have a copy of the "venue" recording on the way at leaset... - It is such an affliction to have "expensive" tastes..... lol Why is it that (nearly) all the stuff that has grabbed me by the short and curlies in recent years, turns out to be mega bucks?? Is it some kind of conspiracy??

bump

Call on Me - The Dynells - Atco ...... at the time it epitomised all the facets of Northern Soul for me.... thought I would never get one... because I had a £30 limit on record spends at the time..

Hi Can anyone help with an MP3 of Martha Jean Love - Hes My Old Time Lover... please? Muchos' Gracias Al

Found out recently that the owner of the old pier has set up a petition to try get support for its restoration - If you want to help give the guy a chance to get a response please sign up here... https://petitions.pm.gov.uk/victoriapier/ Thanks - ps John - Yes the Stormy Winters was in the wrong section......

Yep.. remember the North Wales/Deeside ones... Still have my membership card in its little black plastic holder somewhere...... Good idea - discounted entry to clubs that had signed up... Sure it would work again today...

In the words of Roy Wright .... "Hook, Line & Sinker".... Took the bait... and caught your attention?? - Isn't that what its all about?? - a last minute shout for this venue got you lot looking didnt it......

Sue, the only venues I remember in Bangor itself (apart from the Castle & Tech) were the Old Library Hall behind the main city post office, and the Community centre at the lower (pier) end of town, close to Kwik save and John Owen cycle shop... They were occassional Soul nights - I know that John Bunny & Graham Thomas ran the Library ones - but don't remember who did the community centre ones.... As for Wil... the name rings a bell but can't place a face...... Was hoping someone on here may remember John Leach from Bangor - emigrated to Australia I think - he was a Soulie from the area about that time... always wondered how he got on in OZ and if he's picked it back up again - was a great dancer.... Nostalgia - Nostalgia...........

Got an excellent copy about to go in a job lot sale ..... PM me with an offer if you like - cheers Al

The Bangor Dayers were in the dining room at the Castle Hotel, by the Cathedral - we often met up there before getting on the coach to Wigan. There were also a few good dayers held at the Bangor Technical college (still have the posters) - DJ's were Brian Rae, Dave Evison, Soul Sam, Russ, local lads - Les, Royston, John Bunny, Graham, Gaz and Benny etc...Manys a time we would do Wigan Oldies on the Friday - Back to Bangor Castle for a dayer - then the coach /train back to Wigan Saturday... Where did we get the energy?? The Venue in Rhyl was the Queens Hotel If I remember correctly - not to be confused with the Queens Hotel on the Hill in Colwyn Bay where one or two Soul nights ran... not far from the hotel 70 degrees up the road where we went to 1 or 2 as well ... Is it me or was there lots more going on back then?? Also remember the soul crowd taking over the basement at Plas Coch nightclub a few times too - where Jimmy James & The Vagabonds, The Real Thing and others appreared... Gilbert Gillan in the main room was a closet soulie i reckon.. Anyone remember the record shop at the bottom end of Bangor high st..... bought a few goodies from there....

Thinks its cached to an old link Mike - the new one is... https://www.soul-lover.co.uk/forums/ndex.php Cheers Al

Yep Remember the live acts here well - Major Lance at Xmas, Junior Walker etc... was a fab venue and often packed to the rafters.... Remember Ginger and co doing spots as well as the Wigan names of the day - Searling - Russ, Sam etc... fond fond memories for the NW crowd in particular... always bloody cold to start though... in a very sorry state these days... the guy who owns it reportedly paid around £125k for it and wants to restore it - council won't cough up enough support and the repair bill is climbing with the tide and rust every year - last I heard its looking at the thick end of £3m.... shame.. would be good to give it one more go.. some pics from those days here www.soulbeat.co.uk - Gallery section

Know this Version by Etta James... https://www.soulclub.org/stream/Etta_James_...Poo_Pah_Doo.ram and I Think there is another by Ike & Tina Turner.... plus few others that escape me right now.. sorry

Has anyone here got Kenny Burrell's or George Rouse's contact numbers please??? If so could you PM me with it - Thanks

Chuck Troys Call On You Sock & Soul a blast from the very distant past....... Colwyn Bay - Dixieland all-nighters for me... cheers
