@FabianRuni So why can't he be NS? Muriel Day was Irish; Mick Weaver (Wynder K Frog) was from Bolton. Despite the aspirations to authenticity, if a Casino audience could dance to it, it was Northern Soul.
@Widmerpool99 ,as berry gordy used to say,its whats in the groove that counts,good tunes are just that,purely detroit + chicago etc was never the way i enjoy music,esp me norv !
does anyone know which pub was the video shot in? i remember reading an interview with Mark once in which he said it was shot in a "pub near Heaton Park". On saturday i visited quite a few pubs in the heaton park area on the way to the Oasis gig and this tune crossed my mind.
Is there anyone who still hasn't heard 'Cheap Space Chant' ?
In YouTube, search for 'Timekode, Mark E Smith'
and listen to the strangest and best MES/Fall
collaboration of them all...

@psychodamned you mean 'abomination'? I don't agree. I quite like this song and the original of it.

@fatpizzaman Both terms apply... each to his own . Love the Original though. I never saw the point of Mark e Smith. But thats just my opinion.

Thanks. I knew i hadnt imagined the falls version. Prefer this one as the rd taylor one has got to be the worse northern soul dancer ever.
