Where have the last two years gone?In the blink of an eye an idea by Brian Lester and Chris Churm to champion a regular rare and underplayed soul night has become an established fixture on the calendar.
You are cordially invited to attend and celebrate the 2nd Anniversary on 11th January 2019.
Our special guests on the night are Dave Hall and Steve Morgan.
Some of you may remember that the event was started at the Dukinfield Masonic Hall, though our regular home is now at the far friendlier Ukrainian Club in Ashton-Under-Lyne.The venue may have changed in the last two years but the commitment to bring the best ‘rare and underplayed’ records remains constant and it’s a policy has struck a chord with those looking for something different from the run-of-the mill-oldies nights.You will almost certainly hear a few oldies, but these will be of the harder-to-obtain, ‘quality’ variety and all will be guaranteed OVO.Blend these with what are, we believe, equally great but less well known, 45s and the outcome is (hopefully) that you have a great night and go home having heard a new few tunes and a few that you might not have heard played-out for a while.
For 2019 a later finish has been secured with the night now running from 7:30pm to 12:30am.
The address is
The Ukrainian Club (Association of Ukrainians)
215 Stockport Road
Aston-Under-Lyne
OL7 0NP
The venue is just across the road from the Shell petrol station, it’s just the right size with a capacity of around 80 and has a really nice separate chill-out/lounge area.The car park is only small, but there's plenty of parking on the residential streets behind the venue.
Doors open at 7:30pm and the event now runs until 12:30am with the entrance fee being a quite reasonable (we think) £4.00.
Be there, be rare...or be square!
