Just thinking about 'Missing' Yarmouth and some of the tunes which have come from those fantastic weekends down there. Here are some of my more 'Modern' faves but I know some of you will have memories of hearing (and playing) some quality crossover down there. Let us know what they are and hopefully Bob, Sam, Steve Brian and Steve will be spinning a few of them on Friday.

Here's just a few of the tunes that remind me of what is probably one of best events in the soul callendar

Sam Dees Touch Me With Your Love

Lavelle White About The Facts of Life

Phil Perry One Touch

Jesse Graham When I think of My Baby

Melvin Brown Love Stormy Weather

Tommy Tate If You're Gonna Love Somebody

Come on Gavin, I was counting on you to jog my memory. Looking forward to tomorrow night, looks like Brian has hit the spot with his selections would be nice to get the perspective from one on the Yarmouth 'Main Men' though.

At night out in Wigan with you lot sounds like a lot of fun. I would love to come and join you. All you have to do is ask. Will I have to play side to side music or is up and down stuff alowed these days?

Baz

Not seen ya since the stag doo in London, hope you are well ?

Yarmuff

Now as Brian has said, memory not all that it should be these day's. It is so bloody hard to namr anything just so much over the last 13 years it is unreal.

Sy Hightower,Tommy Tate,Geroge Jackson,Jerry Warren, and so on and so on.

The high light for me, is just the great laugh we all have. Not forgetting me and the boy Brian seeing who lasts the longest! And I think going into this one it is 6.5 all?

And as for some of the pictures !!!!!

Sorry Andy !

Who's going then? I am.... :thumbsup:

To everyone who is coming, just found this link from April of this year. I reckon the odd one or two tracks from these lists will have survived and might get an airing tonight.

https://www.soul-essence.co.uk/essence23.html

I'm still giving time to Charts, Kenny & Rideout and Bob i think is still spinning Best Friend Around & Marion Javius. Bob has a couple of bits up his sleeve for tonight and i've just found the best two unknown/semi known 70's things that i've had in a long time. Also just dug out the best EVER five quid tune that will sound awesome played out loud! Looking forward to seeing what everyone thinks of them all later tonight.

Add to that Mr Barnfather and his thirst for the scene, Flanny & his monsters plus the man who has virtually every Modern Monster in his box, Steve Connor and it promises to be a good 'un!

Cheers

Steve

Hi Mike

Usually leave the write ups to Mr Plumb, so no doubt he will be posting a full review. Gotta say I thouroughly enjoyed myself. The guests Bob Cosby and Soul Sam played some wonderful crossover and seventies gems and in the sprit of Yarmuff something old something new, great stuff!

watch this space for a full review

A fabulous night was had by all at last Friday's Yarmouth special at The Orwell, Wigan Pier, Wigan.

Musically the night was spot on, probably the best for months. The consistency & quality of the tunes was the key. Each DJ choosing a great mix of 60's & 70's dancers, ranging from Northern, Crossover, 70's Modern & Soulful Steppers!

Another factor in the Orwell's success (in my opinion) is the fact that loads of people always come to dance! Not just to rare soul (although there is a lot of that about!) but to any tune that fits the bill (not just the dollar bill!).

In fact, it gave me great pleasure to see that the biggest floor filler of the night was in fact a five quid record in the shape of Edwin Starr's 'Running back and forth'..........well, maybe fifteen quid tops but you know what I mean!

Quite a few 'first plays' and a host of up and coming recent spins rubbed shoulders with the established monsters and Yarmouth classics in this blend of soulful heaven.

Below are a few of the highlights of the night including a full playlist from meself-

Steve Plumb (in no particular order)

Conway Brothers - Gonna refuse your love (My number one new old spin - A Soulful Stepper that could well go all the way)

Mac Davis - I'm just in love

Fantastic Johnny C - Waiting for the rain (orig mix - another ten quid special!)

Howwefeel - I just can't live without you

Kenny Hamber - Anything you want

George Jackson - I don't have the time

Moses Smith - Keep on striving

Philip James - Keep on loving

Jesse James - Falling in love for the first time

LaVern - It won't work out baby (Almeta part 2!)

Masqueraders - Do you love me baby

Kris Peterson - Just as much

Millionaires - I'm the one who loves you

Pat & The Blenders - Just because

Temptations - You're my everything (Best five quider ever - An Eddie & David duet -Perfection!!!!!)

L V Johnson - Recipe

Steve Connor

Richard Caiton - I'd like to get near you

Alex Brown - I'm not responsible

Timeless Legend - I was born to love you

Pulse - Sunshine (Nice!)

Edwin Starr - Running back and forth etc etc

Soul Sam

Maurice Jackson - Lucky fellow

Elipses (How good is this????)

Belita Woods c/u

Eric Lomax c/u

Milton Parker (wow!)

Joseph Webster

Eddie Billups - Ask my heart

Eddie Billups - Shake off that dream

Vince Montana - That's what love does (orig mix) etc etc

Bob Cosby

Don & Debbie - I can be happy

Billy Proctor - Keeping up with the Joneses

G.T.'s - Keep the love you got (Future monster methinks!)

Danny Williams - All those lies

Lovelites - My conscience

Executive Jam - I'm into your love

Willie Pickett - On the stage of life

Rock & co - You live only once (as Imperial Wonders) etc etc

Flanny

Denise Lasalle - Here I go again

Kim Weston - A thrill a moment

Seville - Show me the way

Pioneers - My good friend James

Masqueraders - How big is big

Corey Glover - Little girl (Yarmouth classic)

Four Tracks - Like my love for you

Next event at The Orwell is on Friday 25th November and it's a BOGOFF special!

If Soul Sam or the rest of the boys from the Orwell tell you to BOGOFF in the coming weeks, don't take offence J As a thank you to everyone who has supported us this year we are offering a 'Buy One, Get One For Free' deal i.e. Two people can come in for the normal admission price of one. See the special Business Cards that we are handing out over the coming weeks. Anyone who wants one please feel free to email me on stevep@itlnet.com

Also want to mention the Orwell Xmas special on Bank Holiday TUESDAY 27th December when we have ANDY DYSON making his Orwell debut alongside Soul Sam and the rest of the gang. We are also extending the night by an hour either side, running from 8pm until 3am with a late late late bar! Gonna be a cracker!

Cheers
