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"

    • You literally just edited your earlier reply to remove the point you made about it being “politicians”.  Then you call me pathetic.    I’m  not trying to say you approve any of the ugly right wing nonsense.  But I AM Saying your earlier post suggesting  violent rhetoric being “left wing” was one-sided and incorrect 
    • I never said that. Saying I don’t like some of the rhetoric coming from the left doesn’t mean I approve of Farage et al saying that Afghans being brought here to protect their lives and thank them for their service means there is an incalculable threat to women.    Anything to score a cheap point. It’s pretty pathetic. 
    • To be fair we are as hosed as the majority of other countries post-Covid. The problem is Labour promised way too much and leant in on the we need change and we will deliver it and it was clear to anyone with a modicum of sense that no change was going to happen quickly and actually taking the reigns may have been a massive poison- chalice. As Labour are finding to their cost - there are no easy answers.  A wealth tax seems straightforward but look how Labour have U-turned on elements of non-dom - why? Because the super rich started leaving the country in their droves and whilst we all may want them to pay more tax they already pay a big chunk already and the government saw there was a problem.
    • You don’t think there are right-wing politicians fanning this with rhetoric? Really?
