The going home for the weekend song thread...come on you groovey foookers


Recommended Posts

It's Valentine's weekend so time to get out some of the very best slow dance lovers tracks from deep within the soul vault.


Kashif, "Baby Don't Break Your Baby's Heart"




Randy Brown, "The Next Best Thing To Being There"




Teddy Pendegrass, "Come Go with Me"


 

Storm Eunice hits London and so far it's not looking too bad.


But here we go with the next Going home for the Weekend tune, it's one heck of a a banger of a track, thanks Stretch for sharing this one with me.


Double Exposure, "Everyman (Has To Carry His Own Weight"


 

So another pair of two from two "Going home for the weekend" tunes. The first funnily enough popped up on my You Tube screen and what a track it is, taken from the 1973 album Black Byrd, by Donald Byrd, Sit back and enjoy this one, it's so good actually set it on repeat.


"Where Are We Going?"




And then another track from the ever reliable Bobby Womack with, "Across 110th Street". Two wonderful tracks that go all the way back to 1972 and 73. That's when they produced real music.


 

So it's the early hours of Friday morning and I've been down the vaults pulling some more "Going home for the weekend" tracks. First of two bangers from Diana Ross and 40+ years since it was released, "I'm coming out", what a vocal, WoW.




That's followed closely by the 1979 release of "The boss", both tracks still sound so fresh today.


 

Another weekend is just around the corner, so it's time for some "going home for the weekend" tunes.


From all the way back to 1983, The Funkmasters, "Its Over"




And then even further back to 1979, this time it's a Roy Ayres tune, "Don't stop the feeling"

    • It’s a 4 year old on a bike do you really think he is going 15mph. Grown adults complaining about a child who probably isn’t able to string a few sentences together says a lot about the people in this forum. If this member was hit from behind the father was probably walking behind the bike so I don’t get the point of stretching out an overreaction from a child in Nursery bumping into you. Grow up Obviously a four year old should be cycling on the pavement.
    • Malumbu,  if none of us were there, does that mean that nobody should post anything on here unless they have witnesses from the EDF? Why would someone post something like this if it  wasn't true? This is not about whether children should or should not be cycling on the pavement. There are specific issues. a) the child was out of sight of the person supposed to be caring for him b) he appears to have been  either not looking where he was going or was out of control of the bike c) if he did see that he was about to hit someone  he apparently did not give them any kind of warning  d)  a person was unexpectedly hit from behind whilst just walking along, which in my view makes him a victim e) does the title of the thread really matter as the issue was described in the first post?  f) nobody is blaming the child, they are blaming the person who should have been watching him g) do you really think it was acceptable for that person to find the situation funny? The OP was not complaining about the 4 year old. They were complaining about an adult's lack of supervision of a 4 year old who was not capable of riding a bike and who hit someone from behind with no warning. Also, apart from reading the OP more carefully, perhaps also choose your words more carefully. Jobless? Lunatic? Charming.
    • Completely jobless and lunatic behaviour coming on a forum and complaining about a 4 year old and the child’s bike riding skills. Honestly grow up
    • I have to say, I too am upset about the passing of DulwichFox. He was a real local character, who unlike me, managed to stick with ED despite all of the nauseous yuppification of the last three decades. R.I.P to foxy    Louisa.
