Alway been in love with this. Just imagine trying to turn Curtis into James Brown! Maybe thats why he topped himself?? But I know KOKO was on an Album the first time I saw it
Actually it is 'Interzone' by Joy Division, that this wonderful Nolan Porter tune was the influence for, from the same wonderful album as 'Shadowplay' (Unknown Pleasures), from dj TANK The MANC, in Royton
He was one of the foundations that built Northern Soul back in 69/70 -the new Northern Sound - modern and tinged with the likes of Southern Soul like Lee Dorsey . Without records like this the movement could not have progressed 6 years later at the Ritz and the Mecca !!
Hi, Nolan. No time no see. Hope you and yours are doing well. I'm doing great--I have a 14 year old daughter and I'm still married to Michael and we live in Rancho Cucamonga, a neat place. Good to see you on youtube--actually daughter Laurel told me something like, didn't you know this guy before you got old? Hmmmm. Hope all keeps going well for you.
Dear Soul Girl: it thoroughly amazes me that you have this video posted. I finally found this 45 about 6 years ago after hearing it in London back in '97. Now I've come to find out a video exists of this. My hand was shaking so much I could have played a drum roll. It is safe to say "the woman's got soul" - you RULE!
Ooops... sorry for the wrong track listing LOL. I'm going to upload the other one now :D I know the record is N F Porter but during prestatyn he was introduced simply as Nolan Porter :D
