Ibiza Soul Patrol

One of the CDs I have in the car's MP3 player is a gigantic stomping Northern Soul compilation which reminds me how old I am every time I put it on. Perhaps one of the few tracks on it that today's Ibiza dancers would recognise is this one - Don Thomas: Come on Train - which was a big dancefloor hit in 1974. It always reminds me of the Highland Room (they had tartan carpets) at Blackpool Mecca where I went on most Saturday nights.



Incredibly, 35 years on, and it's now the music for a TV advert for Visa. It still sounds pretty good to me though!
