One hundred mile an hourer off the top of me head. The great Tommy Tate - You taught me how to love
I'll do mine via drip feed - or japanese torture. lol
In terms of timescales you are being very broad - Mecca through to the early 80's, yet very specific and prescriptive in terms of venues. Just for clarity you are referring to Cleethorpes era 1 (Mary Chapman) and era 2 (Steve Croft) in terms of niters and time scales?
You have posted some decent tunes to get things started.
But surely a legitimate release is a legitmate release? If a record company releases a record in the states and then releases it over here it's still original and playable as OV. I'm no serious collector and haven't bought stuff for years so I'll happily concede that I'm a prat but surely the above stance is over the top.

Put some 80's pics up quite a while ago now - mainly from Crofty's niters at the Winter Gardens - there might have been a few from Clifton Hall too. Worth a look if you've not seen em.
Under Peters99 albums.
Nice one Simon.
You always make me smile.
Seriously though you've some nice records mate. I will concede to not being a great fan of HDaT - as i said I do like the title of the record though.
Best
Peter - err, I mean Nice!
Ah. I thought it was a poncy wheel brace.
Anyway, at least my ignorance has bumped the thread. Come on someone - buy it now, it's cheap, in smashing condition and will enhance your vinyl playing experience ten fold.
I've tried but I can't remember. I can remember me mates back in the day were into proper shite - Black Power, Barnaby Bye that Mickey Mouse shit thing. I pride myself on the fact that as a new boy on the soul block I even knew that those records were crap. I do remember having a stomp to So Is The Sun at Derby Assembly rooms all niter and the whole floor was bouncing. I probably knew then that I'd stick around for a bit of bouncy bouncy!
Thanks everyone.
I've had my say which is fine - some may agree or some disagree, which is fine too. I shall now leave this thread - and the other one (after I've picked up any replies) to sunnier and more interesting threads on our great site.
