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


Recommended Posts

It's Easter weekend, a good time for some reflection and contemplation, and about time we had a bit of gospel soul, I give to you from this collectors must have album;


Donny Hathaway, Sack Full of Dreams, from the album "In Performance", a collectors vinyl must have.




Donny Hathaway, We Need You Right Now, from the album "In Performance"


 

What a way to get the weekend just around the corner underway with two fab "Going home for the Weekend" tunes, enjoy.


Instant Funk - Crying, a Larry Levan 12" Mix




Gospel BeBe Winans - Thank You (1997) Rare MAW 12" Inch Remix


 

With another Bank Holiday just around the corner, what better way to begin then with two outstandingly great "Going home for the weekend" tracks from the O'Jays, beginning with "I love music"




Swiftly followed on by "My favourite person",


 

It's Friday again, so it can only mean more "Going home for the weekend" tracks.


First up is a remix of Brass Construction's Movin by Djinji Brown




Followed swiftly by Marcus Miller from the Tutu Revisited LP (Live) featuring the superb Christian Scott, Hannibal. An absolutely stonking jazz track.


 

So many tunes and so little time to squeeze them all in by closedown, but lets start with two more outstandingly stonking good "Going home for the weekend" tunes from 1973 and 1975 with;


The Intruders, "I'll Always Love My Mama"




Followed swiftly by;


The Trammps, "Trusting Heart"


 

I saw the Silver and Golden Jubilee's and now here we go with the Platinum Jubilee.


It's a double bank holiday weekend, and I'm feeling it's time to begin pulling some tunes out for the four days of celebrations which are ahead, and funk up your life so what better way to start than with some funky sounds to get you tapping and bopping across the floor. Tune 1, from a bag bursting at the seams;


Chaka Khan "I Know You, I Live You"




Followed by a touch of sweet jazz;


Eddie Russ, "take a look at yourself"

    • Hey all 👋 I’m fairly new to running and have (perhaps ambitiously!) signed myself up for a half marathon later this year. I’d love to find a few others who are also just starting out and fancy running together in a relaxed, non-intimidating way.  The idea would be a very low-key, beginner-friendly run club — lots of jogging, walking breaks totally welcome, zero pressure on pace or distance. I’m particularly keen to create a small, supportive group for women who might feel more comfortable running as part of a group, especially around the park. I was thinking of doing gentle runs around Peckham Rye Park to start with. If that sounds like something you’d be up for, give me a shout — would be lovely to see if there’s enough interest to get something going 😊
    • Hey rugby fans,   Happy New Year!   Try Time Kids' Rugby is back this coming Saturday (10th Jan) for the Spring Term! If you struggle to find things to do with your little ankle biters on Saturday mornings, why not come down to Try Time Kids' Rugby and let us take them off your hands for an hour? As well as transferable sports skills, we teach our 2-7 year old members the four pillars of sports that Try Time was founded on, encouraging them to be energetic, imaginative, inclusive and respectful.   Sessions run 9.30-10.30am and 10.45-11.45am on Saturdays depending on the age group. We also run an inclusive more relaxed group for children that would otherwise get lost in our normal fast paced sessions at 10.45am. With Pay As You Go sessions available for those not looking to commit to a full term, there's something for everyone!   Both boys and girls are welcome, sibling discounts are available!   Sign up for a trial today at https://ttkr-dulwich.classforkids.io/   Contact Kat today at [email protected] if you have any questions or would like more details! See you on the pitch!
    • I would think so too but surely they are losing money now anyways from not building for so long
    • From what I’ve researched online, they aren’t issuing any opportunities for sub post office licenses in this area for ages so LL is so stressed out. If this is ever going to improve they need to start allowing applications for licenses in this area so complaining may be helpful if anyone can do this when they have time using the link from above? It’s very annoying indeed using LL especially when collecting
