My God I cannot believe how confused you all are!

Stompin is The Champion/Bill Black type of music.

So is the sun,Ton of dynamite et al is Lolllopin'

Distinct difference and never confuse em on the dance floor - do so at your peril! (Especially at our age)

With regards to the term STOMPER that was invented creatively by us lot to distiguish between the likes of Moses Smith Vs The Jewels.

I suspect that raw energy = stomper

Cheers

I think JALM was by Johnny Williams on Bashie.

Paul

Well done everyone!

Had to laff at the post about it being played and possibly clearing the floor - that's the one reason i would hold on to the tune!

A lot of the best tunes are the original floor clearers!

Paul

Put it in ya diary.

To all the detractors of the IL project to bring these artists to the screen try this little trick:

A) Bang on any of the DVD's,turn the sound off,and watch the energy in the performers.

I have always been a fan of any artist that puts energy into a tune (which you can do at 18 or 81 don't forget!) I personally reckon this quality is what sets NS apart - it covers slow as well as fast tunes but they ALL got energy!

By lip reading see if you can guess any of the tunes (sounds hard but if someone gives you a jumbled list of all the tunes/artists on the DVD you might well be surprised.) When either by knowledge/luck/elimination you hit on a right answer THEN turn the sound on and you will realise it's the artists we're looking at and their input - this time around I'm afraid the music is secondary.

We're lucky to have a chance to see even what these artists look like,never mind how they have weathered the storm of life.

Unless you can backdrop etc the same as you did 30+ yrs ago I'm afraid your criticism should be kept to yourself.

Was La Beat the original release?

Is it my ears or does the La Beat copy have a very slight dip about 2-3 secs in.Always wondered if this had something to do with the Palmer release?

Paul

Unfortunately not .......

The Nuremberg Rallies (officially Reichsparteitag , meaning national party convention ) was the annual rally of the NSDAP

( Nazi Party ) in the years 1923 to 1938 in Germany , especially after Hitler's rise to power in 1933 , They were large propaganda events by the state . The Reichsparteitage were held annually at the Nazi party rally grounds in Nuremberg from 1933 to 1938 and are thus usually referred to in English as the Nuremberg Rallies . .........

After 1933 , the rallies were held in the first half of September , under the label of Reichsparteitage des deutschen Volkes ( "National Congress of the Party of the German People ") , which was meant to symbolize the solidarity between the German people and the Nazi Party . This point was further emphasized by the yearly growing number of participants , which finally reached over half a million from all sections of the party , the army and the state .......

My TIC reply was in respect of Paul S asking how a venue can be advertised , i.e. " Bigger than the Nuremberg Rallies " ........

Is the flip Soul Meetin' on the orig? Was under the impression reissue had a different flip - could well be wrong though.

Me and my family have several copies of Lester Tipton's record and we got them from Lester Tipton. Lester was my uncle and he would have been floored knowing that his record was going for so much money.

He got murdered in the 80's and that was such a bad time for me and my family because he was such a wonderful man and he brought so much joy to our lives and I still miss him to this day.

Your Uncle has given us a lot of joy on the dance floor over the years - nice to hear from you (albeit with that sad news)

Paul

Funny how Marvin Jones got renamed and Derek never did,might be an image thing.

I guess he was positioned.

Paul

I always thought I was an Ok dancer, but one night at a casino anniversary my mates pushed me on the stage (go on Smivee you can win it go on) I thought if I win how will I get that stereo system home on the train.

It was strange listening to the music from on the stage, all the faces peering at and you couldn't tell at first what the record was it was so echoey.

Anyway I came second or third to Vernon, shown up or what

The records 2 out of the 3 were Eula Cooper Let Our Love Grow and Johnny Taylor Friday Night.

Those two are toughies on the floor at the best of times.Well done, admire your courage.

Paul

Phil Coulter who co wrote all Kenny's hits wrote most BCR hits, 2 Eurovision winners and Cliff's congratulations.

He also (don't let the Credibility Police know) had a hugh record on the Northern Scene in 1976 with Good Thing Going evidence attached (ignore the spelling mistake in the name)

One of my all time fave instrumentals.That tune has class.Can't choose between PC and Al de Lory as to which is the most underplayed tune on the planet.

Listen up, when they eventually get sorted out on Mars the real info coming back won't be they have water it will be that they've been playin' Al de Lory all along!

Paul

Thomas gave us the light.

Henry gave us the car.

Levi gave us................. a starting point.

Thanks

Paul

Good & Cheap - the magic mixture! Don't know where you live but I believe a trip to a specialist shop where they have loads of tunes and a deck or two is worth every penny.

Thing to remember is that we all have different tastes and you will find your groove on a mission like that,where I am sure you will find more than enough willing people to guide you.

You have started with an awesome base with that CD.

Good Luck

Paul

Well I'll tell ya somethin' if I had realised they had corned beef sandwiches??? at the back of that record room I wouldn't have wasted any of my hard earned on them stupid vinyl 7" things at that "The" Wigan Casino!!

If I had come back from Wigan dressed like POG (after sneakin' off there anyway) my Old Man wouldn't have wasted his time on a good bollik*n he would have taken the easier route and rang some people in white coats and had me institutionalised!!

Paul

Mickey Valvano was involved in producing Motown acetates so ya never know who's had their mitts on it!!

Paul

Been thinking about this acetate and it has raised a question for me - perhaps somebody can assist.

Do people have other Motown acetates to compare the general style/layout as I am intrigued by this Att B G Jnr.

Does this stand for:

Attendance/Attention?

The reason I ask this is because B G Jnr was apparently responsible for scrapping the orig press and i don't understand if a) he was in attendance how it got to a press before he scrapped it

b)if it was attention BG Jr did it get delayed getting to him(allowing the press to continue) on purpose to strenghten Frank Wilsons' hand in some sort of negotiating tactic.

Anyone with any info appreciated.

Thanks

Paul

Slightly off track but seem to recall somebody introducing another version of 'Stick By Me Baby' as Herman Hitson at Brid last year - have we any clues about this one? - sounded good to me.

Paul

Black???

So they say! Explanatory thread on here somewhere.

Paul

MVP's???

Paul

It all fits into place now.That's what Bush needs 700billion for!!!

Hey the act runs to 451 pages.Has anyone checked the smallprint where it says F**k Wall St someone's got a studio acetate of Frank Wilson!
