Byrney There's no need for that...........can't the moderators do something about post such as this Cheers Martyn

Frank Butler-The Love I Need JV

This has been posted before (can't remember who by sorry) & I loved it,went straight on the wants list & that nice Swifty bloke pointed out there was one on Flynny's sales page........so I'm now the proud owner of a Frank Butler-The Love I Need JV

Alan I think Kev Cane was one of there groupies Cheers Martyn

Kev New to me & not one I'd rush to buy but loved the backing vocals,smooth with a capital S Cheers Martyn

H Have aliens abducted you........R n B indeed Proper tune Cheers Martyn

Swifty I'm now a proud owner of a copy of Frank Butler,thanks matey Cheers Martyn

Kev Think I've got a demo of that Cheers Martyn

Swifty Forgot myself,vocal to Green Onions.........well a little bit Cheers Martyn Edit.......just checked my evil-bay wants......Frank Butler

Swifty Love this,had my 77 copy since Wigan & have always thought it's never had the plays it deserved? So when you sell your demo cheap having paid lots more for it (your usual business model ),give me a nod Cheers Martyn

Does anyone ever used the full term "Wigan Casino Northern Soul"? Haven't times changed,always used to shit myself when there was a knock at the door thinking it was squad now it'll be Trading Standards Cheers Martyn

Tony Clarke-(They Call Me) A Wrong Man MS

Dave Impossible to pick just one out my collection but here's a tune all young/new soulies should know imo.Has everything,great soulful vocals,brilliant lyrics but one of the most important things is it shows that everything that is played isn't 100 m.p.h which is often a misconception. Tony Clarke-(They Call Me) A Wrong Man MS

The point I was trying to make earlier in the thread isn't what I think I am I know what I am but it's what others think I am,the majority of people whether on or off the scene when the term "northern soul" is used have an initial view of me that is far away from the actual reality.So a term I was proud to use for most of my life (don't forget for many of those years been associated with the term was universally disapproved of) doesn't now describe me,so why would I use it?Like I said earlier I'm not saying I'm right & the majority says I'm not.So if a stranger asked out the blue what I was into I wouldn't use the term "northern soul" for fear of misleading them..........I'd probably have to go into some long drawn out explanation that would bore the arse off them,bit like I do on here Cheers Martyn

Noggin Never been booted as far as I know but who knows these days? My Kent copy has "Good Luck" (which is a great side on it's own)on the other side & if I remember rightly that came out on another Kent release under the title "New Love"???? No idea of price on the President release but Kent copies used to be £15-ish but books at £50 now which I thinks a well steep?Copy on e-bay for $9.99 Cheers Martyn

The Yella-Belly Mafia have spoken Cheers Martyn

Gary Give away price on Lovables,brilliant girlie dancer Cheers Martyn

I don't have a problem been in the minority & really I think me & the smaller crowd of my ilk are keeping the faith (not a massive fan of the saying) more then most but what I've been trying to say all be it not very well is I now don't fit into the perceived view of "northern soul" The fact that the general perception by most isn't right I can't do anything about,so I'll just jolly along doing what I do & let the majority get on with what they are doing Cheers Martyn

Jim Great call Derek is a must to be talked to,still see him from time to time & he's an encyclopedia of info with a lot of it written down on scraps of paper,lists from the year dot,photos etc. Knowing I was from Hull he gave a record that that was made of the speeches from the opening of the Humber Bridge.......picture sleeve of course Cheers Martyn

Pete Not enough RCA issues Great sets from all,would love to get over to one of these.........one day Cheers Martyn

Jaco I'm one of the dissenters & I think you make some great points,some are correct for me some aren't.My comments weren't made lightly & aren't just a grumpy owld git's moan(like most of my comments on here are ).I desperately want to feel I belong & have tried to hang on as long as possible but as the things I've taken for granted about the "northern scene" forever seem not to matter these days or even worse frowned upon or ridiculed.I feel as if I have very little in common with the majority of the "northern scene" so by definition doesn't that make me something else???I'm sad I even feel that way & take no pleasure in my comments but that's how I see things these days. I'll still be out most weekends doing what I do........I'll just have to think of a new name for what I am(no suggestions you lot ),just what the scene needs another "Pigeon-hole" Cheers Martyn

Up to quite recently I would have shouted it from the rooftops proudly but I think of late what the majority think "northern soul" is/means & what I think it is/means are becoming two very different things.Not saying I'm right,maybe I'm a dinosaur still wanting to hear new music like it's always been?So as I'm in the minority maybe I'm something else now????

Spot Have you been trying to get your "Spencers" on again Cheers Martyn

Look forward to the end product. Couple of names not mentioned yet might be worth getting in touch with........Barrie Waddington & Craig Butler. Cheers Martyn

Daz Without a doubt there's room for another film/films exploring other aspects of the scene,I look forward to them Cheers Martyn
