  1. The internet has certainly fuelled the epidemic. Some of the prices I see are beyond loopy. Anyway.
  2. Thanks Ken. Can’t find my card, but it’s somewhere. Thought it was before 1975 when I was there but memory is gone.
  3. That’s the one, right next to the pleasure beach.
  4. Can’t answer your question but can add to your list. Blackpool Casino. I remember it as quite a big venue with a deejay on a stage playing what became known as Northern Soul. Outside was a helter-skelter which is still there. Unless memory has slipped. I still have the membership card if anyone wants to see it.
  5. Paul Riser, Homer Banks, Carl Hampton. No wonder this is a great song. RIP Randy Brown.
  6. Roberta recorded two great ballads which went mainstream. RIP.
  7. Jerry Butler RIP
  8. This is how I remember it. Prior to 18th September 1965 it was at Brazennose Street. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twisted_Wheel_Club
  9. “I Thank You” was one of my first introductions to Soul Music. Sam and Dave Prater left a catalogue of songs which can only described as essential. Their “Soothe Me” was the penultimate song played by Pete Roberts in the revitalised Twisted Wheel building before it was demolished. Sam Moore RIP.
  10. This obituary appeared in the Los Angeles Times. https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/latimes/name/william-jackson-obituary?id=53117239 Is he the June Jackson who recorded on Musette Records? ”You’re Welcome”
  11. Don’t give up on it. Geeselad. You will love it as much as I do. Northern Soul, Deep soul, Beat Ballads. The Rocketeers, Paul Kelly, Little Beaver, The Moovers. Collectors such as Jeff Lemlich and Ken Shipley. Not to mention Henry Stone.
  12. One of my favourite Soul documentaries featuring Clarke, Reid, Pearsall and Hoss. Plus artists Helene Smith and Betty Wright and others. Great stuff from Eccentric Soul.
  13. This cd is worth buying because it contains much off his excellent catalogue. Very popular artist in the USA. Brenton Wood RIP.
