Great news. I have many tales re record deliveries from left on step (some) then nicked to pushed through open window dropping 2.5m onto floor after just missing crystal vase on window sill, slotted under adjacent shared ginnel door (ready for stepping on) and slotted into the gap between door and casing in full view of passers by. And to the wrong neighbour never to be seen again. Ah never mind. Not a 2g 7" rarity thankfully.

Some may ask... Shouldn't it be in London above The Soul City shop? (lf it's still there.)

A record played at home usually sounds unrecognisable from the same monster sound at a do. That's a major reason to go to a do. Clapping togetherness too. Where's the scene going? Up and down as previously l guess. A gap to refresh your saturated listening buds. There'll always be the dancing. At Wigan we all faced the stage and could see the cool moves of others in front and ,over time, put these moves into your own dancing. There was no beer at Wigan. I guess clubs need the cash from the £3.90 a pint but that might be a factor to consider when people choose to leave their nests? Fingers crossed there are enough clubs survive to put on a do in the future. I'm off to a do 2nite at Worsley Mesnes where Russ is on verses the young-uns. Sounds fun. Ktf

It just ain't soul bro. Soz.

It isn't easy to prize folk out of their post-covid comfy couches these days. Good luck though. From my mate's observation at the Royal Albert many of the crowd where new to northern. Fingers crossed.

Thanks.

I've not seen it on lp. My mate's got it on 7". I believe there was a prob with boots a few years ago? On tv about it?

Eccentric northern soul. US new compilation. Had a quick listen and it's sound. My guess there's an interesting story about its creation?

I'm sure he sang it at the 1st anniversary niter '74.

On the stage, Russ slapped 'em on, Richard gave the spiel. Explains the routes our heros have taken since?
