Wednesday 16 & Tuesday 17 ... both blank I'm afraid !!
Looking at the number one hits in the UK at this time we had had a change ... on the 12th April the Jam were knocked off their top slot with 'Going Underground' by a classic dance track.
The Detroit Spinners ... 'Working My Way Back to You'
Oh how I have danced my way through this track over the past 29 years. It appears at every disco, nightclub, wedding, 21st, 18th, 40th etc I have been to
I have already featured a piece about the Detroit Spinners here in May 1979 do take a peek ... superb tracks to get your toes tapping.
Well all of day today I have been up and down a ladder finishing painting my hall (yep more paint on me than the walls!)... I just need a plumber now to fix on the new radiator, then I can fix on new skirting and get the carpet fitters in. The hall is looking great .. my house is 100 years old and to have freshly plastered walls that are straight is a luxury.
As I had some paint left I thought I would carry on through to the dining room but alas I ran out ... but I am looking at a plain white wall in the dining room with nothing on the walls & I am loving that look.......B&Q is beckoning on Saturday
Tomorrow I am having a chilling day with my mate Annie Mouse (whose blog has mysteriously disappeared??) and my cuz CKX in my home town of Liverpool can't wait to catch up with them both
Blogger doesn't seem to want to load any photos today .. hey ho !!

7th May 1979
Monday 7
Sam woke me up at 10.15 with a sock! (oh how romantic)
Stayed in all day cos weather = grotty
He left at 6.40 to get the 7.21 train at Liverpool
I won't see him for 2 weeks
Fi came round 8.30 - 11.00
Had a good natter
Whilst flicking through the 'Top Pop Scene' annual published 1975, I came across these guys.
Can't even tell you how many times that the dancing shoes have been on for this one!!
Oh and this one too
after they left Motown they produced these
How fabulous is this (this was a time when bands sang live on Top of the Pops)
And this is my all time favourite 'I'll be around' ....... fantastic :-)
If your toes are not tapping now then nothing will make 'em :-)
A great tonic for mid week

I hadn't realised that these guys were about way before I was born.
During the 70s they found great fame with their groovy dance moves and music.
They were originally called 'The Spinners' but in the UK there was already a band called the Spinners from my home town of Liverpool so in the UK they got the name Detroit Spinners or Motown Spinners.
I have always thought Motown sounds were so cool and that has not diminished over the years.
From my youth in the 70s I recall there massive UK hit written, produced and directed by Stevie Wonder "It's a Shame"
