Northern Exile Jan 2022 6:31pm, 18 Jan 2022 8,407 posts	0 Northern Exile I'm all over the place today. Just came across a track I haven't heard for years, it's time to open the door to the "broad church" if you know what I mean. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKfoYvbiR3Y

Dai Bank Jan 2022 3:18pm, 24 Jan 2022 5,637 posts	0 Dai Bank Out on a cycle ride with my mate Graham last week and we were passed by another rider with music blaring from a speaker. That's a bit of "Norther Soul" says Graham who promptly told me of his dance competition wins at Wigan Casino back in the day. He reckoned a good dancing night was a 4 to 6 t-shirt changes while a poor night only saw 2 changes. I've been riding with this chap for about 8 years and he continually stuns me with his tales of life experiences. i have printed off the play list for our next ride so he can let me know his thoughts and hope to add a few new selections. Love the Chicano soul above.
Red Squirrel Jan 2022 4:16pm, 24 Jan 2022 22,212 posts	0 Red Squirrel Just popping in to say hello. I'm in the library without headphones, so can't listen. Internet at my flat has been very sporadic; I've just about given up on it. Next time I'm animal-sitting for friends, I'll try to finish listening to everything I've missed. I've lost the thread of posting to the big 100. It's still in the back of my mind tho' and I will get to it.
