Nowt Changes
I made exactly that point here Steve /Norther...ene-t77448.html Oldies were confined to the collection, until M's came along. But with 40+ years under our belts, I do feel there's room for healthy 'lookbacks' - but the bedrock of the scene should still aim to be progressive (as we always knew it to be). Sean

Bobby Thurston - Very Last Drop
Too much of the hard stuff Jock. If you can show me a US demo... I'll show you my tank top! Sean

Lou Pride Intrumental Track
He has more than one of most things!

Bobby Thurston - Very Last Drop
Well remembered Barry. Always a last hour spin for yours truly. Never was a US 45 of this. Sean

The Uncoverers
That's whats amazing isn't it Paul. Nobody did! Pat played it for months as 'Brother Louis Brown' and had everyone guessing (certainly at Clifton Hall 1980). Then again, how many Northern Soul Nighter goers, at the time, ever really listened to Wilson Pickett? Sean

Ever Missed A Venue Or Event?
Me too. Great pic Steve. Sean

The Uncoverers
Curiously, from the same stash, I uncovered Richards, Sandy Linzer cover up - Reuben Howell "Can't Stop A Man In Love". Became convinced that the Top DJ's only shopped at bargain basement stores for their rarities - and then I made a career of it! Sean

The Uncoverers
Worry ye not Paul. I uncovered it. Bought the LP in Fox's in Doncaster and was gobsmacked to find the Top nighter sound on the LP. But not as gobsmacked as Pat was when I played it an hour before he came on - uncovered! Sean

The Ovations-til I Find Some Way-xl
Lovely Double Sider, Chris! I'd guess... Orange copy £15 - £20 Blue / Green copy, probably £25 - £30 Sean

Viola Wills Rip
Yes Paul, also on the other mix its the A side, with the flip being "Some Other Day". Catalogue number is 609 whereas the other is 103. 609 is the better version IMO. Sean

Walter Jackson
You and me both. One of all time favourite records. Truly magnificent! Sean

Best Northern Tune
Not sure what you mean by this. Do you mean Jeff Perry "Love Don't Come No Stronger"? If so, that particular 45 was played as a new release (i.e. when it was 'Modern') and then 'sneaked its way' into becoming 'Northern'. Are you sure the thread title isn't the wrong way around? Sean
-
Viola Wills Rip
Have two different recordings of this. Both on seperate GoodEar rnumbers. "Lost Without The Love Of My Guy" was perhaps my favourite track by Viola.... along with "I Got Love" and the storming "You're Out Of My Mind" RIP Viola Wills. Sean Hampsey

My copy is the original Bell Sound acetate, with "The Forgotten Man" on the flipside (also sung in Italian). Sean

Foreign Language Northern
Long Gone Gene! It was the 'with cheese' variety after all!
-
Mississipi Po' Boy - K. Lipsey
Lovely isn't it! I played the recorded track on Soul Discovery radio, last October. K. Lipsey has been an intern at Malaco, working with the awesome George Jackson. Real Deal Soul Artist! Thank you for the clip. Sean

Foreign Language Northern
I have Jimmy Radcliffe "Long After Tonight Is All Over" sung by Jimmy in Italian! Also (incredibly) have the Temptations singing in Italian "The Way You Do The Things You Do" on Italian TM 45. Both came with free garlic bread! Sean
