We could do straight down the middle, noting the sheer amount of R&B power taking the stage at Temple University this weekend.

I mentioned over on the mothership that this could be a good week for Northern Soul and associated genres (by which I meant Stax and other classic (mainly sixties) soul labels). I recently (but rather belatedly) put a selection of my favourite floor fillers into the Northern Social dropbox (under the title Northern Soul-cial - witty or what') but I suspect that most of you missed that.

A couple of years ago I created a Money Rocks Quiz for a financial website. The idea is to match lyrics, artist and song title. The songs cover fifty years. I believe all have been nominated for the wealth category in this week's RR already or are zedded. There is a link to the answers after the quiz. Previewing this there seemed to be a large gap between this text and the quiz which I couldn't get...
