Phil Bush has got a fantastic old fashioned (and mighty powerful) sound system of the kind that all good music should be played on.

Their stock in trade is usually skinhead reggae - and they have it in spades. I know that Phil, in particular, also has a fantastic selection of ska and rocksteady - serious tunes over and above what most people can draw. "Mouth-a-massy" on original JA Randy's anybody? "Always together" on original JA Sunshine???

The nights I've been to have been heavily attended by large traditional skinhead/scooterist crowds. Dare I say it, but that often means that a night tends to gravitate to the '69 beat. For me personally, this is a shame, because I know that both of these guys can go DEEP and I would much rather hear vintage ska and rocksteady than skinhead organ grinders.

I have no idea what these guys can draw when it comes to northern soul.

Even if you have to travel, I would strongly recommend that you go and listen to these guys at least once.
