  1. Were great days (late 70s - early 80s). Some great dancers about then (in both rooms). Always wished it would go wrong & speed up, now that would be worth seeing Always liked the dancefloor at Clifton Hall in my home town of Rotherham but i'm no expert on the topic as i dance like my avatar
  2. Nottingham Palais had a great floor in the main hall but the revolving floor in the Jazz Funk room stole the show. Got on it at 1 side of the room & finished up at the other side. Some great emotive dancers in there as well, not your normal run of the mill jumped up acrobats I know, i'll get mi coat
  3. That's the short version. Here's the full lengh version. Boy meets girl, boy gets girl, boy gets LaBeat demo, girl divorces boy, boy has to sell LaBeat demo to pay off girl....This Won't Change
  4. I wish
  5. If i was selling mine (i'm not before you ask) i'd be looking for at least 120 in cash or 150 in trades, like everyone say's you just don't see em any more. Got told once that a follow up was recorded called Busting The Pusherman on the same label in a picture cover, also told it was a bag of shite. Any info
  6. Ha, Crofty bought it off me many years ago in Lincoln, took me bloody years to get another copy. Just to satisfy my curiosity what's it going for now?
  7. Quality Bob. Don't you f*****g dare go scaring us with that retirement talk again ya hear.
  8. A wire brush & a bottle of domestos works quite well. Also a good cure for piles
  9. Surgical spirit from a chemists is as good as owt else & only costs a few pence. Also good for getting marker pen off labels if your'e careful. Like Stuart say's though, don't go near an acetate with it. Only a downright idiot would do that.
  10. Welcome to an exclusive club Maria, only 3 members up to now, you, me & John Manship! Pretty cool eh. Seriously though, still waiting for the soundclip of Madeline's version of Help Yourself. Anyone got one to post up?
  11. Agreed. Either that or a bit of self justice. Speaking from experience here as i had my collection stolen from home (nothing else took) in the early 80s. Still haven't found out who it was but if i ever do i wouldn't think twice about sorting them out 1 way or another....
  12. Shirley's is the classic version we all know but i think Madeline's version has more guts as Matt & John point out. Imagine hearing them both for the 1st time, gotta go for Madeline's. Going slightly off topic i know but is anyone familiar with Madeline Bell's version of Jimmy James's Help Yourself that she recorded on Philips? Absoulety brilliant version IMO & i cant believe that it don't get played out. Just wish i knew how to post soundclips up but i'm sure someone out there could put it up, you got it Kenny?
  13. Rumor has it that 3 of the demolition crew walked out of the building shortly before demolition with boxes full of unreleased acetates. Local police are on the lookout for Mr Manship, Mr Brown & Mr Moerer
  14. How much?
  15. Martin Barnfather's a big name innit? loads of letters in that (some good anagrams too)
  16. Now you've mentioned Jazz Funk how about "Dancing in outer space - Atmosfear? The dirtiest bassline you'll ever hear, Love it...
  17. Was just about to say Starvue. Nice to see Lattimore getting so many mentions, really like "Goodbye Heartache" by him, not really rare groove though, more 80s boogie. Nice to see you mention Barbara Lynn's You make me so hot Tez, great tune. Been listening to Willie Fisher - "Put your lovin on me" a lot recently, so under rated...
  18. Bill Withers - Harlem...
  19. Another one here. Will he ever learn.... https://cgi.ebay.com/RARERECORD-by-the-AD-L...1QQcmdZViewItem
  20. Couldn't agree more Pete. They play far too much Northern at em
  21. Not much difference really (apart from the price) just a longer break in the middle. Seem to go for 12s though with things like that as the sound quality is far better. Only problem is they're bloody heavy when DJ'ing Talking about DJ'ing we're thinking of doing a one off Clifton Hall tribute night at Bar 10 later in the year so how ya fixed for coming down & doing a spot for us? Know you've got the sounds, be good to have a good jam & re-live a few memories, might even ask Mr Mannion to come along as well. BTW Adrian does the door & helps us with the equipment so the links are there. Fancy it? Lata, Mart...
  22. Know you work in Sheffield Darren so try Cool Wax records in Orchard Square (ask for Coxy, other kids in there aint that clued up). It's where i got mine from & it's been repressed on Nervous since then. If they're no help Robbie Grants e mail addy is mailto:robgrant@blueyonder.co.uk & his phone no is 01324 634478. Finally if you have no Joi, (sorry for the pun!) come to our next Modernism on Sat Feb 4th & i might find summat to swap for mine if you need it that badly & at least you'll get to hear it BTW ya still got that King Tutt 12"
  23. So this is where the northern scene is heading is it? Might be some jobs going for DJ'ing spots. Go & stand in that queue behind Mr Levine
  24. Was great upstairs at Tiffanys in the early 80s (room called treetops i think). Seen Summertime 12s on orange NIA & gold NIA labels (mine's orange) but didn't realise it came out of Kenya. The 7" versions good but the 12" knocks spots off it. Just out of curiousity how much do you want for it?
