i have been ever present at the Wilton for 5 years or so now and the recent playing of that Y2K stuff leaves me feeling cold.

I hate to hear it at the Wilton to be honest.

I can hear that kind of soul in my local trendy bar/club. I don't mind it in those type of places but not the Wilton.

Just my opinion.

Totally agree Shane, i love to listen to it at the right place/time, not at a rare soul night/nighter :ohmy:

thats what makes "WILTON" my fave ....

you can hear a touch of everything....

RnB isnt my bag ,,,,but i can listen to it ( NOT ALL NIGHT )

but a mix of styles keeps the night fresh

Some of us really old people with arthritis appreciate the odd slowie  :ohmy:   :lol:

link

ya not old Alison :lol:

There are slowies and there are slowies but this one is a SLOWIE!

I love mid-tempo best of all but this one hasn't got that edge to kick you round the dancefloor.

nice record though but a bit dreamy and floaty for the leather on wood brigade imo.

:ohmy: You know you dont mean that.

i agree with pete on that little list.

with the exception of Bobby Reed (which gets a play in my car now and again) the rest are no-go's for me. They are party songs for the stag/hen night (sorry oldies night) brigade.

I am a 60s man if pushed but I love the kind of 70s stuff that Andy Whitmore plays these days.

Had all the above and 'binned 'em'.

They start out as so so records in the first place then reach the new dizzy moribund heights as 'Norvern Modern clazzzzics'.

With the exception of Bobby Reed I suppose coz the flip and Better side still has some yardidge!

Has "If I don't love you " had any turntable action?? - great record :ohmy:

BROWN SUGAR - THE GAME IS OVER

ACE SPECTRUM - DONT SEND NOBODY ELSE

BOBBY REED - THE TIME IS RIGHT FOR LOVE

BILL HARRIS - AM I COLD AM I HOT

THE LIST GOES ON AND ON  !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If i like a record and someone else doesn't......then i don't give a F***,

but i do like a verbal carry on....but it's interfering with my liver and onions....

Wolverhampton...get back to Laurel Aitken and leave those young disco kids alone...... :ohmy:

I've not read all the posts but I think 70s should be in the northern room after all we have to listen to RnB don't we (and that's shite IMO)

A few years ago I wouldn't have agreed but I've took my blinkers off and started to listen to various stuff and I now love the 70s/crossover stuff (please don't tell me dad though :ohmy::lol: ) so yes, it should be played :lol:

I just think that people/dinasours etc should give other sounds a chance - I'm so glad I did. I only ever liked mid-tempo (still do really) but I actually threw myself round the dance floor at the Rangers (Stafford) last Friday to something I'd never heard before but loved the beat and my god it was a bit fast for me but what the heck :lol: :dance:
