binsy Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Well that has come round quickly. First anniversary in a few weeks time, just like to thank all the people who have guested for us over the past year:hatsoff2: Brian tells me we have some more top guests lined up for the new year (maybe even some from overseas) I'm very much looking forward to our guest John Reed this month, a man with impeccable taste and should be well worth a visit if you've not heard him before. We also hope to add another seahorse to the banner:ph34r: Link to comment

MarkH Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Majestic Soul is about to become 1 year old ......and by the time i`ve finished reading (let alone understanding ! ) the Bakerman`s last post we will close to celebrating our 2nd anniversary !! Lot`s of great tune, great company, laughs and banter has passed and i`m sure next Thursday will be no different when we welcome along my old mate John Reed as our Special Guest. Anybody that knows John or has received or swapped cds with him on here will vouch for the man`s taste in tunes. It promises to be another cracking night so get yourselves along (just remember to bring your Wellies ! ) Mark H Link to comment
binsy Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I can't add much to what has already been said but I think what Majestic soul has added to the soul calender is a great small regular night where dj's and guests can try and play a different blend of records than they would normally be able to. More of a listening night early on but the tempo rises in the second half of the night. So many great sounds and even more bonkers behaviour over the last year. Personal favourite the double birthday celebration including cake with candles melted into it:ohmy: Try it you might like it, the night that is, not the cake;) Link to comment

binsy Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Alas Jason the Brok is no longer with us but we may smuggle a hip flask in to up the ante! Really looking forward to our first Anniversary of Majestic soul. We've had some great guests each with their own specific selection of soul music. Some of the tracks that we have played this past year include George Jackson - Aretha sing one for me ...Royallettes - only when you're lonely Ronnie Walker - Precious Shades of Brown - How could you love him Ernie Johnson - Disco music keeps on going on George Frye - Keep on keeping on Jo Ann Garrett - one woman Bits and pieces - did I scare you Moses smith - Keep on striving High Keys - Lets take a chance Let's hope we celebrate plenty more top nights at this intimate venue Link to comment

Sorry this is not clear...The last 15-20 mins will (Till11.30) will include all the above dj's playing an anniversary cover up!! Something we never do!! but.....we have each got a magic tune & wonder what kind of a reaction it might get!! the truth about covering it up means that it wont bother the dj if nobody cares about the record...it will remain his/her baby..... Pls also expect an emotional mix of THE HITS OF THE YEAR wether rare, cheap, classic, underplayed...whatever!!! so go on brian play yer Philly Devotions "Hurt so Bad"....with Gusto!!!.......

binsy Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 Wow what a sad few weeks for the soul fraternity. Solomon Burke, General Johnson and James Phelps have all passed away. I'm sure we will do our best to pay tribute to all of these heroes of ours:hatsoff2: Link to comment
