Burndens Bogs Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 That song was always considered a bit of a joke amongst the Northern crowd at the time - a white bloke doing a Jagger/Richards song......... cack As far as commercial northern goes, they don't come much better than this imo - an old Chuck Wood song - eventually released on the same shitty record label as Wayne Gibson - http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=3nPajmK0P_k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burndens Bogs Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 (edited) Northern Soul nazi alert! Wonder how you'd go now with the adoption of the likes of Angie Stone and Duffy tracks in the northern scene? As black as the ace of......., surely? Call me old fashioned - but i just prefer soul music to be sung by a black person Although i must admit there have been 1 or 2 good 'uns by honkys R Dean Taylor,Dean Parrish,Larry Santos,Paul Anka etc - Edited December 7, 2008 by Burndens Bogs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought you were objecting to its commercial nature. I note you missed out Tony Blackburn (or should I say Lenny Gamble) from the white NS performers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burndens Bogs Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Didn't realise it was a skin colour thing. More like horses for courses Bolty - i just think black folk do soul music better than anyone else, but if it was punk i wanted to listen to, then no-one can beat the honkys and if for instance i wanted to listen bhangra music - Asians are probably unbeatable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
