James bought some records out of a school bus, and Uwe brings in a few non-English language things. We discuss whether these records are antiques, or just old. James breaks a loved and loathed record live on air! On purpose! (Don't worry, it was worn out and going to the trash anyway). It's another 2 hour radio dance party of 60s soul, R&B, and Mod tunes, all on 45 rpm vinyl! Originally broadcast May 21, 2023 Willie Mitchell / That Driving Beat Johnny Thunder / Groovy Two Shoes Eddie Holman / What About Me Mary Wells / Ain't It the Truth Harriette Blake / Turn Around Boy Alvin Cash & ..read more

Originally Broadcast on April 16, 2023 We veered a little outside of our usual lane of Northern Soul and R&B in this episode to include some ska, pop, rock, funk, crossover, psych, jazz, and a weird Kentucky psych/funk/country rarity by "Daniel". Listen to us struggle to not giggle like teenagers playing a song called "Ain't No Big Thing (But It's Growing)" right out there on the FCC-regulated airwaves!

Originally Broadcast March 12, 2023 James dug up a lot of new British Beat, Garage rock, and other Mod-friendly rockers lately he wanted to feature, so Uwe dug some of that kind of stuff out of his record vault and we did a whole show of it. We usually scatter a little of that kind of thing throughout the Northern Soul, 1960s R&B, and similar stuff we concentrate on in most episodes, but this time we let it mostly take over. We feature tunes by The Creation, The Small Faces, The Surprise Package, Zoot Money, The Liverpool Set (from Canada?), Liverpool Five (mostly from London ..read more
