Nastily overlaid track , the original sequence knocks that into a cocked hat , might not be "Norvern Soul" enough for the blinkered souls on here but it's classy and no mistake ...

Quick heads-up as to one to avoid ... "I.S.S." One word ... Garbage ...

The type of venues using dated cliched NS bullsh*t like KTF etc , etc ... !

Just finished bingeing on "The Tunnel" , fabulous Anglo-French drama series.

Looks just the same as the "World Championship" at Blackpool ... apart from the fact that the tune and dancing are way better ...

Perhaps the "Soul Staatssicherheit" should also get in touch with the 'Official Norvern Soul Dance Academy" to prevent any possibility of classes being offered in this perverted exhibitionism.

Used to love watching Les Parren and Carole Drinkwater from St Neots/Brampton cutting a rug at St Ives ... Methinks it's about time the "Soul Gestapo" got together and published the definitive set of "Northern Soul Do's and Don'ts" so that the rest of us know exactly what's acceptable ...

According to Discogs , Yes. Under "Sham-Ettes"

A major part of the 'scene' as I remember when getting into it was it's distance from what was 'mainstream'. That mystique and almost secret society feel , queuing up outside clubs waiting for the pissed up casanovas to bugger off at midnight so we could take over until dawn. Now it's been thrust firmly into the spotlight on every mainstream platform that mystique is forever dead , and sadly those pissed up casanovas seem to make up the majority of 'fans' these days , certainly in the soul night department anyway. I just hope 'our scene' survives until the latest bandwagon jumpers get bored and disappear back to whence they came , sooner than later. That way I might get my mojo back and start venturing out again , but for the present there's little appeal unfortunately.

Male/Female/Group ? Fast/Slow ? 60s/70s/80s ?

Women scorned and all that ...

They never trolled me ... they just got arsey and blocked me ... saved me hitting the button ...

Just started on the long-awaited series "Masters of the Air"

Quite fitting considering the joke that it's become over recent years ...

Another series off to a good start ... "Death and Other Details".

Link dead ...

Just stumbled across "Santa Clarita Diet" , instantly hooked , it's a hoot ...

"Criminal Record" ... Half way through episode two but struggling to stay awake tbh ...

Another that I waited too long to watch ticked off the list. "Stand Up Guys" with outstanding performances by Christopher Walken , Al Pacino and Alan Arkin.

Not quite sure why I've waited 36 years to see it , but what a fantastic film "Rain Man" is . Best thing I've watched in years.

Just snuggling down to watch "Race for Glory: Audi vs Lancia" and I'm greeted with 'Ann Peebles - 99 Lbs' booming out over the opening credits ... nice start ...

It's like an all night version of "whiskers on kittens" from a previous era ...

As it's aimed at the Twat-tok generation I guess they'll be pottering about to Terry Callier - Look At Me Now ...
