@paul5619 Just checking some old tunes ve to say Dance, Dance, Dance has to be up ther with the best Wigan tunes - but when I saw a message from someone who rembesr Crokk cricket club I thought wow double bonus. Im from Howden-le-wear, who are you?
A great sound from yesteryear,shame they aint so good now.Im on the dancefloor spinning and dancing to this gem........ok my imagination is,sciatica and northern soul just dont go together.
Wow! Good to see so many positive comments to this song. Just a little correction, The lead singers name is Arnold Davis (my dad) not Johnson. Also, the group had a mini reunion in Amityville this past weekend. There a chance they may do a revival in the near future! Curious to know larrybndc's real name. I haven't been to Amityville since 86 but we probably crossed paths as kids. My mom was good friends with Lillian???
@fmgroup100 please say hello to your dad for me I was in a group called the Imaginations and lived in Wantagh we use to see your dad at the wantagh bowling alley and me and bobby bloom use to go to some of the rehearsals in amityville
This group came from my hometown of Amityville, NY. Ollie Johnson, Peppy DuBois (brother of Jane't Dubois - Willona from "Good Times") Junior Love, who every one called "Slick", Arnold Johnson and Jimmie Johnson and Mike Furr who weren't in the group at the same time. I used to watch their rehearsals when I was 7-8 years old because they practiced in our basement and on the patio... at the time, Jeanette (birth name) was my step-mom.

Those were the days Wigan days !!!
