  1. Aye ockers, I am still stuck on this sad merry go round they call Soul Music. How are you mate? Rick Webb and Lew Kirton were another two.
  2. Kenny Carpenter - 'I've Got To Find Her' has done me.
  3. The back end of Bits 'n' Pieces 'KORA' always does me as well.
  4. Great tear ducts think alike ay VV?
  5. The first time I heard 'Departure' by EWF, I proper filled up - a very odd but beautiful little instumental.
  6. Am I the only one who finds this very odd?
  7. I'd forgotten just how good this is.
  8. What you could have bought with the same money, makes the purchase a little silly in my eyes.
  9. Forget it, I'm thinking of Mark IV.
  10. Who was it that FBZ became after a name change? I have records by them but can't remember - mid 80's???
  11. 'Dazzle' yeah, Lynsey Weskers (Kiss) duo weren't they Jerry.
  12. I've done it again haven't I? 'All Our Yesterdays' please. :fool:
  13. Kev Edwards, Bad Ass, Fergie, Ray Rose, Soul Sam amongst others on the decks, so a real mixed bag was always on offer - this venue kind of broached your normal soul venue's approach to what could be played to a crowd I think. Sam Dees (twice), Leroy Hutson, Benny Latimore, Jo Armstead, Shirley Jones, Willie Clayton, Candyce McCord, Omar Chandler, Willie Clayton, Ronnie McNeir, Billy Griffin, The Three Degrees, Keni Stevens, Fifth Of Heaven, Northbeat, Alison Limerick were just some of the acts that performed at this little roof-top venue in Warrington.
  14. Is it me or does the sleeve photo on the re-issue look like it has been smartened up some?
  15. I still have my strips of Wigan floorboard - it was one length but the coppers made me snap it in two as I was trying to thread it through the window on the train one morning after a Maximes nighter.
  16. I don't think he's being obtuse - 'Modern Soul' was coined for the Northern Scene to describe a particular form of it and therefore a straight interpretation of the term, without prior knowledge of why it was coined doesn't hold water with people that were on the scene at that time. I think.
  17. Modern, to me, is late 70's/early 80's stuff, as the term was coined on our scene specifically to explain stuff played at nighters from that era at that time. If I was pushed, the purist in me would like to say mainly independant stuff but you can't leave played all nighter records by major recording artists like Keni Burke, Norman Connors, The Pockets and the like out of the discussion. If I see 'Modern Soul' I immediately think of the above - although no doubt it will mean different things to differnet people.

  19. Although quite entertaining for a while, this is now getting a little like hard work - pm each other lads.
  20. Thanks Rachel. Very nice....but hardly a knee trembler is it?!
  21. Couls someone post a sound file of this? Thanks
  22. I stopped bidding for the Timeless Legend at $850 - glad I spotted this thread on here now.
  23. I'm wellin' up.
  24. Kenny Shepherd - 'What Difference Does It Make'
