  1. This reminds me of The Dells "Your Song"? ">
  2. The Delfonics I Told You So The Delfonics-I Told You So I have never heard this track before today so I'm not too sure if this has ever been played on the Northernsoul scene? I think it reeks of northern with a slant towards the seventies but I would love to dance to this at a nighter, will any one play it? Would any one else dance to it? While we are on The Delfonics, has any one ever come across a version of The Delfonics doing "Gimme some lovin" ?
  3. I still stomp
  4. Boogaloo, can I ask the question another way please? Forget the physical price, how many of you have spent money you didn't have? Have you spent your train fare? Lunch money? Weeks wages? I watched my old mate Scotty from Doncaster spent two weeks dole money on a record knowing full well that for the next two weeks he was going to be cold and hungry! Frank Wilson, mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm cheque book collectors
  5. Dance your self dizzy or Sit back n listen? Forgetting the tempo for a moment, what are the trax that stop you dancing? The ones that make you stop just to hear the lyrics? Many of us have been moved by lyrics and the story, Ray Pollard - The Drifter made me weep when I first heard it. What gets you off the floor and into another zone?
  6. Benji, was machst du den Sommer Nighters ¼ber?
  7. Mega bargain!
  8. Rhino thanks for sending me it, I of course listened once then destroyed it so as not to infringe any copy right issues. Eddies as far as the value there is one on e-bay for £52.85
  9. Dedication and quality - big thank you Mike
  10. TEST
  11. I have set up a trust fund to enable my records to finish their education
  12. Barry you look like a Bond villain!
  13. Barry, its funny you should say that coz quite a few on the Northernsoul scene say that I look like a very short fat dumpy version of Tony Curtis? Or was that Collin Curtis? Going a little off topic now, sorry Barry, The persuaders theme was done by John Barry who in my opinion is a fookin god! The theme from a Midnight Cowboy and the 007 Theme (not to be confused with the James bond theme) are in my all time faves! Youtube them
  14. Bri, that's a good call on the "quirkiness" Keni Lewis does rather sound as if he has swallowed a pickled egg at the start of the track but that is part of the appeal. I did think there was a warp on the track when I first heard it, now I am convinced the fooker was doing pickled eggs.
  15. Is this any thing like what I experienced the day after visiting Akbar's Restaurant in Rotherham?
  16. Sorry mischief , didn't see you had Run Baby Run Love that record
  17. Can some one please send me a file of this so it can go onto a CD? SIMON CUERDEN'S E-MAIL
  18. Mark at the allnighters the balloon is very much full and it's a great big party one that's being bounced from venue to venue with no sign of bursting. You can get back to basics and as deep underground as you once did I'm sure mate. There is a fantastic swarm of nighter goers, who are easily the best giggles around. I am overwhelmed some times at the friendliness and the sheer celebration of fun that is present at the allnighters.
  19. I love the scene today and for me personally the only difference for me now is that I can't chuck my self about the dance floor as I once did. The passion and quality is more refined due to people having knowledge at their finger tips. I remember having a carrier bag full of C60 cassettes of Northernsoul and never knowing the artist or titles for years! We are all CD cover and Internet e-bay experts now and it is no longer the black arts or the realm of the DJ/Collector train spotters who did some times lord it up. I have never dropped out of the scene since I started and yes some times I get a little holier than thou when it comes down to the Wigan born again's who are stuck in a time warp musically and I do cringe when I meet the Soul night soulie who wouldn't dance to any thing other than Moses Smith: The Girl Across the Street. But we have a broad church now and an excellent choice of venues so you go where your particular comfort zone is. I will be active on this scene as long as we have venues like Middleton and as long as we still have pioneering DJ/Collectors who chip further down from the tip of the iceberg that we know as rare soul music. To quote Martyn Bird "One day I will hear another The Tomangoes" Soul Source plays its part on the soul scene, well certainly here in cyber space where I know I can hear a track last night and get some one like Pete Smith to give me the info on it instantly. We have a great thing going now, it's better than any decade, now is the time, I miss my youth but I would not go back for all the tea in China. Is Northern Soul More Popular than Ever? What's The Reason Behind lt?? Every one and any one can now enjoy It's within easy reach if you want and at arms length if you want.
  20. All of them including the times on German Scooter Runs dancing on grass in a field! I remember the floor at Canklow and how it used to seam to turn to ice? It was a hoot watching visitors go tits up every now and again! I am not a big fan of the Blackpool type sprung floor as when it's in full tilt it's like dancing on North Sea Fookin Ferries! I'll dance on just about any thing until Uncle Knob Head spills his drink!
  21. Mike has just sent me a set of steak knives.
