I remember going back to a guys house in Skipton en-route to Burnley after Wigan Casino one Sunday.....and there prominent nailed to his wall was a pair of his old well worn dancing shoes!! with a sign depicting "Aint no Soul in these old Shoes"....a fitting epitaph to a legend! on the scene, unfortunately i never saw him live....but i chose Okehman as my moniker and it is is my salute to him and the classic label....see you at the All- Nighter party up there one day Major.
Better than the Kenny Bernard version but both are great tunes and guaranteed to get me on the dancefloor, I also used to have this 'Live At The Torch', what a night that must have been. Rambling on, I tried to get to see Major Lance a number of times at The Casino and it was always cancelled, the reason, or so I was told, was that he was bust for drugs at The Torch!! C'est La Vie!!
one of the first soundsi heard when going to my first allnighter,brilliant stuff that got me going back for more and more.there is still a little soul left in these old shoes,my bleeding legs just cant find that dancing rythm like they used to.

Great track, but, the record says on it 45RPM.When in fact it is only doing ELEVEN RPM.Surely the song should be a lot slower ?
