Northern Soul...

[Lie-in King]

...at the Proms - I know there are a few fans of the genre here & since Lynne introduced me to it, I count myself as one, though I'm still (& guess will always be) muddling through...

Anyway, if anyone's interested, it's on this evening - BBC2, 19:45 > 21:15 & I'll be watching with interest :-)

Togo - I’ll re-post without swerving the perpetually offended/sensitive.

I loved-it - so much so I’m watching it again.

Deskdiary - You can trick the computer's language censorship, but not a Moderator's, it seems.

[Deskdiary]

Indeed AH. I posted my deleted comment at about 10pm so just assumed there’d be adults on the board who wouldn’t get upset about me using a naughty word to describe how great the performance was.

Clearly I was wrong.

Deskdiary - // ndeed AH. I posted my deleted comment at about 10pm so just assumed there’d be adults on the board who wouldn’t get upset about me using a naughty word to describe how great the performance was. //

That needs the presumption that it will not still be visible at 10am, when it can be read by minors, and clearly that presumption is false.

That would suggest the reason for the removal of the post.

Since discussion of removed posts is frowned upon, I will be making no further comment on the subject.

Hopefully we can all leave it at that.

Not going to comment on the performance, andy, now it's been broadcast? Made you look a fool.

[Deskdiary]

Behave AH, do you honestly believe children are on this site?

If you do, I have some magic beans to sell to you if you’re interested.

[Deskdiary]

Anyway…

Ignoring AH’s diversions, to those that took the trouble to watch it, I thought it was brilliant.

[Barsel]

I have watched it and I'm glad they included a few of my favourites.
I've loved Motown from the very start and some of Northern Soul fits in with that
I'll post my particular favourite.

[Lie-in King]

I'm just happy that my nudge about the programme was successful & that folk enjoyed a superb concert :-)

Anyone that watched without at least a smile & a foot tapping must have a heart of stone.

Night all, sleep well :-)

Brilliant singing!

Thanks again L-i-K. It was a great show. I have also recorded it and will certainly enjoy watching again.

Not Northern Soul, but if this doesn't get you shaking your maracas, nothing will. :0)

[Countrylover]

I'm back (Lottie). I find nothern soul very boring. But the orchestra behind it made it so much better and I watched some of it.

It didn't figure in my younger days at all obviously loved by many though.

[Countrylover]

Has the site owner disappeared? I've tried emailing about coming back as MissT to no avail. There were those I see that expected I was back in disguise. That would never happen!

Hi Lottie, nice to see you. Welcome back.

[ladybirder]

Wow Lottie good to see you back again. Hope all is well with you and yours.

[Countrylover]

Thanks both. Not in a good way at present. Major health issues. But just wanted those I get on well with to know. There are those on here I missed which include both of you.

[ladybirder]

Thank you Lottie. xx

[naomi24]

LiK, just watched it. What a fabulous party! Such talent too! Great stuff! Thank you so much for posting it.

I told my husband he’ll be tested on his dance steps and rhythm co-ordination later … but all has fallen strangely silent. Can’t think where he might have gone…..
