This is my alll time favourite anthem......"When the going gets kinda rough...Dont let it get you down....gotta keep on....keep on keepin on no mattter how rough it gets!!!".....many a special sweat soaked night i spent in Mr ms without gear! just my physical fitness, and these superlative sounds to keep me going.....and it pounds my brain when im struggling to put one foot in front of the other in the Marathon....and once again i toe the line in New York on the 6th Nov...my 94th!!!
in reply to nalawole , further down .... you and me must have met ... MR. M's was my home for the first 5yrs of wigan ... in there all nite with kenny spence ... many nights i never went outside of MR. M's .... came in through the back door with kenny ... and quite often went out the same way !!! that place was magical ... gonna have to post some pics on here when i get round to it ...
you know joy division covered this as a punk song, through in a few dark curtis lyrics and BANG BANG! u get Interzone, the penultimate song of unknown pleasures
5*****'s to you Jim! Not only is this one of the truly most brilliant and forgotten gems of the era, you even have a really cool whole channel just chock full of them. Wow!
Hey, damn right you will ! It's the only way to ever be...
I know you'll get on the good foot and be even stronger than ever before...it's your truest nature. One pure and magnetically soulful, decent human being...with just a whole boatload of moxie and allure. Bacetti... <3 Tim
in a documentary on Joy Division, Bernard Sumner said that they were asked to do a cover of this song. the riff was the basis for their song Interzone. now im hooked to Northern Soul! thanks for posting this!
