PM me your number and I'll pass it on to Joolz.........also PM me your facebook details and I'll link you to.a friend of mine who is one of the greatest experts on Northen Soul in Scotland.......he is constantly promoting Northern Soul nights and he has a song library that is unsurpassed.

Even by merely friending him on facebook.....you can trawl his news feed and create a massive play list from youtube. I know a bar owner in CM that would most likely be up for promoting a night once a month or so.......you know the strength of NS as much as I do........if word got out that there was a circuit starting in CM it wouldn't be long before people started flying in for it.

I think the Pattaya "do" is scheduled to last for a long week-end. There are more details on t'internet if you care to trawl for them. Possibly search Northern soul in the Pattaya forum and you may get a hit regarding it.

I hope to go down possibly for the oldies session. Don't know if Keb Darge is coming in but his partner in crime Guy is supposed to be up for it.

Wouldn't you just know it, the Australian national is on the same week-end!!! The two soul nights in the Southern Hemisphere and they have been scheduled for the same week-end. You could write the script for it could you?

What clubs did you used to go to? I caught the end of the Torch, Va Va's, Samantha's, Wigan etc.

Kind regards

Mac

totally on the same page once word got out people would travel to hear the sounds that they danced too as well as the unbelievable sounds that can easiyt be heard on you tube

on the pattaya gig just saw speedy fi aberdeen was asking about dates theres a ghost fi the auld wigan days

best music on the planet and the best atmospheres

keb and guy are scheduled for the friday and sat vinyl only and keb is doing a rockabilly on the sun

went to wigan from 78 to closure sometimes in the back o a transit with about 18 bodies in the back

a nightmare drive back to scotland

clouds all nighters with sterling evison etc were dynamite almost rivalling wigan for atmosphere and sterling was at the top of his powers though stll dislike country girl good northern dancer but still hate the lyrics

aberdeen all nighters and the dundee boys were superb dancers

Whereabouts is the Bamboo bar in Sansai, as I live up that way and will pop in and have a chat. By your moniker you're either a DCFC or Florist fan, and if so are you from that part of the country and if so did you go to the Brit club down by the river on a Friday night?

Does anyone still collect the original records?

aye i,m still collecting tough my recent buys are stuck in japan

soul -source .co.uk is the best and most honest site for buying and in depth knowledge and discussion on mainly Northern but anything quality soul orientated

havent got a scooby what DCFC or Florist but does simpson graig and gemmel murdoch mcneil and clark,johnstone,wallace chalmers auld and lennox mean anything to you

need to find a good bar that can make space for a dance

check out pattaya soul club and i went to wigan casino on facebook for sounds put in by northern people also robbigcity on you tube

cheers

Aye, wee Archie Gemmel played for both Derby County FC and Notts Florist, or is that the first Scottish team to win the European cup?

I've started buying records again a few years ago, after selling up years earlier. Though my records are still in europe, and I usually have them sent to a friends house, who holds them until I get back. I had to do this after losing a copy of Love runs out, Willie Hutch. A rather expensive loss.

Yes also a member on soul-source, quite the font of N.soul orientated knowledge. Also good the read some of the articles in Yesterdays forum.

For further information about the soul week events in Pattaya, just google siamsoulagogo and you will get a run down of the DJ's and the programme.

seems to be some interest in northern in cm.

Need a bar with a good dance floor would be ideal,but also a placeto listen to quality sounds and maybe discuss would also be good

introduce the people who dont know this type of music is always exciting

its good to see the new blood featuring in the yet to be releleased film northern soul and the excitement they feel in discovering NS..

For the nostalgics amongst us

i went to wigan casino face book page has daily listening of records

also the pattaya soul club page

soul -source and its links has for the more in depth

willi hutch when love runs out class sound
