Incidentally, Cashman, "Supergirl" - Graham Bonney's a crackin' record. I commend your good taste!

Another top record and one that used to regularly fill the floor at Accy Disco back in '67.

"Supergirl" was one of my favourites. Graham Bonney was very popular in Gemany in the late 60s early 70s. He had one hit there I remember called "Siebenmeilenstieffel"

Good grief, haven't thought about the Twisted Wheel for years! - used to get down there when I shared a flat in Manchester - never will I forget the night I was chatted up by this gorgeous creature in a Beatles-type suit, who offered to run me home - had a sports car!!! - got back, nobody else around the flat, thought "This is my lucky day" - then SHE took her jacket off! I honestly hadn't realised - short haircut, looked masculine, etc. She was very nice about it, though!

Don't remember the Torch in Stoke - but didn't move there until much later and didn't start going out down there until about 1970 or so - used to go to the 007 club and various other joints. The attraction at the 007 was not so much the music as their compere who was a great comedian, and of course the lads used to go to see the strippers!

I only went down the wheel half a doz times, the Oasis, Flamingo as well. In Manchester, there was a great mod shop I used to buy gear from, but cant think of its name, it was down a side street accross from Lewises dept store. Harry Fentons was pretty good too. Thanks, Wynonie & Cashman, for your definitions on N. S.

Soul Deep was great. I even postponed my trip to the pub for it! Can't wait for the Sam Cooke story next week. The Velvet Satins, Kurt Harris - crackin' records from the Wigan Casino era. Remember Tony Clarke's "The Entertainer"? A pre-Northern soul record...in fact, yet another floorfiller from Accy Disco 1967!

Also, nice to see some of the often-forgotten rhythm & blues pioneers getting some exposure in Soul Deep...Louis Jordan, Ruth Brown, Big Joe Turner. Pity they didn't mention Wynonie Harris, but you can't have everything!
