Something for the weekend


I used to have a regular feature on my old blog called “Boogie Friday” and I’ve been trying to stay away from the soul and dance music end of things here because, well, you know, been there and done that. But the weather has been so lovely this week I’m feeling a spring in my loafers and want to knock the maudlin nostalgia on the head for a day and DANCE.

These are all English records anyway, so I’m still on message. I did post “London Town” on my old blog many moons ago but it’s worth a second go.

    Yeah I enjoyed Linx, sadly when i checked the collection on my computer I could not find a single track so I will have to sort that out, because I was sure I had a few hanging around.
    As for Hi-Tension my first real Girlfriend was into them and so I had to get on board and here I am so many years later and I still play British Hustle, Hi Tension and occasionally Funky collector, Light of the world will always be Time, and The Rah Band the name rings a bell but i am buggered if I can find a tune in my head.
