Just a few lines to say thanks to all for attending 'Caliente' Peterborough last night. We all certainly did give Kev Draper a good birthday night (plus celebrating 40 years on the Soul scene). Great up for a good night crowd with plenty of dance floor action to cracking sets from Carl Fortnum, Steve Jay and Kev Draper himself. Good early door spot from Mick BB just leaving a bit of time for Russ and I to fill in the gaps in between. Good to hear and see some great responses to some 'old' Caliente favourites - Guitar Ray "You're gonna Wreck my life", Eddie Parker "I'm gone" and not forgetting - George Hughley "Do the Beatle". Plenty of lesser known/played tracks mixed in with some quality oldies and some seriously rare 45's each one getting a great response.
Thanks again, Ray

'they' often say "You get nowt for nowt"
how wrong that can be....
a venue full of souls appreciating top soul
a dance floor to express ones' love for the genre
dee-jays the likes of Russ Holley, Ray Mahoney, Mick BB, Steve 'Jay', Carl Fortnum and Kev Draper.
and, not wishing to sound corny or patronising but a room full of love and respect for Kev Draper on his Birthday which only enhanced the already top 'vibes' of the night.
people from the 'Boro and Cambridge getting along just fine thank you very much (all us old POSH fans know that mixture on the odd occassion outside of the soul scene in the past has been known to be explosive)
and ALL this for Nowt.
no entrance fee
no door tax
nothing
zip
bugger all!
what an excellent return to the Boro for netty and me, been meaning to get to Caliante ever since i designed their first flyer many, many moons ago, i guess when all the heavenly bodies were actually in alinement and pointing toward Mr. Ds' celebration we just could not miss this one.
well done guys
a most enjoyable event listening to most enjoyable music with most enjoyable friends (old and new)

Also good to see Carl is looking after the Eddie Parker until he lets me have it...are you reading this Carl...look into my eyes, the eyes, the eyes, not around the eyes, don't look around my eyes, look into my eyes, you're under..and will now email me saying you are happy for me to have your Eddie Parker!

Thanks to the Caliente guys for a great evening. And a happy birthday to Kev Draper. Music was excellent all evening with something for nearly everybody, so thanks to all the DJs, especially Steve J for playing Faye Hill & The Hill Sisters for me. It would be nice if the DJs could put their playlists up as there were loads of tunes I didn't know last night, and, as usual, this morning my mind is fairly blank.

Additional thanks to Karen, Steve and Brian for their good company, and special thanks to Brian for doing the driving from Potters Bar I wouldn't have known where to go with the A1M closed, would probably still be driving around now, lol.

On my visits to the Club Caliente I've always found it a very friendly and welcoming venue, nice to see it so full last night.

Hi Liam, yes I have a few more - bit same as above, but check out Coop's website www.ournorthernsouls.org as he has put a fair number of quality pics compared to my snaps there!

Hi Rob, glad you found the venue - straight forward for most folk, must be that old 1986 AA Road map you have in the boot of your car! Anyway, great to see you both and glad the music was to your liking! Yes, have to agree Jimmy Wallace is a fav of mine (wasn't me that played it though!).
Thanks again, see you out and about. Ray
