Len Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 (edited) A Revolution??? There's one this Friday.. But, you're right, if everyone that said they wanted to to hear something other than the well worn would turn up we'd all have a lock out. Nevertheless...It's still more fun to have 40 or 50 in that want to listen than 300 that can't or won't. Just an observation - I've seen many posts by guys putting on 'Under Played' nights, stating things like…."We only get around 40 in, but we'll keep going each month" I know a 'well done' is in order for trying to do what you all do, as this part of the Scene is extremely difficult to make a successes, but surely the same 'rule' applies with ref to 'what we all agree on, but no one is doing anything about' - Don't put so many on.....if 5 x 'under played' events customers (40) went to the same event, there would be 200 people = Great music AND great atmosphere!...... Don't get me wrong, I do understand the ol…..“I'd rather 40 like-minded people, over 200 others”…..to a point, but come on - sometimes there’s not much atmosphere even with 40 (so called) ‘Right’ people.

KevH Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Disagree Len.Sometimes 40 in a small intimate venue creates a night with a buzz. The problem is that the "underplayed" tag has run its course.there's been so many of them over the last 6 years....that its come full circle.Slipping in overplayed tunes to supplement.And of course "underplayed" only suits so many people - hence a smaller venue suffices.

Pete S Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 some great tracks...a few being played down here in the sw but then some ive put back in the box and still been guilty of not playing...so many tunes and so little time..but having a monthly nite does mean im always trawling through the shelves picking out things ive not heard out for a while..id get bored playing the same thing let alone our regulars! and as i cant afford the next big thing or the BIG overplayed classics its something i not only enjoy doing but have to..underplayed alongside the cheaper lesser known one from me then....anyone playing this blue eyed thing at the moment?..ive not heard it down here https://youtu.be/hcRPiqc8pCU dean Great track that - I actually have the original studio acetate of it - but I think it's the same cut Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Chris L Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 The reason why record's are forgotten is that djs do not know them and the dancers just want the same classics That's not strictly true. A lot of DJs will only play really rare records, some (if not most) of those "forgottenies" tend to be on the cheapish side. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I did say ‘sometimes’, because I have also been to some great nights like those (also to some very bad ones) I was just saying that if the monthly ones went down to 3 or 4 a year, these ‘40 attendees’ each month venues would attract more people, and get even better (than they already are) Some of the venues that do only do 3 or 4 a year are now suffering, which is (partly) because of these monthly events. Yes, the ‘Underplayed’ Tag has (as you say) run its cause - Also, some people can’t seem to tell the difference between the tunes that were ‘Underplayed’ for good reason, and the ones that were ‘Underplayed’ because they were genuinely missed - that in itself has caused the ‘Underplayed’ Tag to become something that puts some people off (and I don’t blame them) All the best, Len Edited April 30, 2013 by LEN 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Sooty Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 (edited) Remember the Duke of Argyle Len? If I recall correctly....the City Stop Soul night was rammed every month...and we stuck mainly to obvious' tunes so to speak....party night! Very successful....but....a minority of 'hard core' wanted to hear summink different too! So...i set up this little dark dingy venue...The Duke of Argyle...above a pub....and it held about 30 people!!! EVERYTHING played there was obscure...rare....or at the time unknown as such! Shifty's tunes/Kev Featherstone...and Rob came over with some funky gear too! Did you do a spot there?? Many did! Awesome nights and horses for courses satisfied...in 1 town...job done! To be honest...at that time...we probably couldn;t have filled a 100 folk venue for such....! The City Stop party got 150+ everytime...every month! You are right tho'...if there is too much choice....then some venues will suffer. Do you leave that to market forces...customer demand....or reduce whats on offer.....? Always has been a toughie....and the latter needs huuuuge co-operation between folk. I remember us '9Clubs' Soul Club....used to liase all nights between us as best possible. We had a comradeship that the scene suggests should be 'normal'. In reality...it ain't like that! I think for our time when kicking off...we were 'revolutionary' and all friendly which helped the concept you are firmly promoting here....all credit to you too mate....but.....unless them friendships etc are in place....the 'chat' as witnessed in this thread...will continue...for another 40 odd years...I reckon!!x @@ ~ Just remembered that Checkmates too! B side of ...of....????!!! Can't remember?!! Ain't got it anymore...swopped! But am I getting mixed up with Times a Wasting B side Moaning groaning???!! I played both in me time....help Len?!hehe!x Luv'd both B's...and spun ithem at the 100club which went down well I recall!!x ...and this one has Tony Middletons siggy on it! Ady could put me right....but I think he made his first appearance upon arriving in the UK on a Thursday night....and we piled down to meet this 'legend'!! He didn't have a clue he was so revered! A luvly fella and indeed a happy memory to savour...X I think the above copy is/was Kev Fevs....I kept threatening to get Tony to sign it for him...!!! He nearly cried at the suggestion...and it started a debate that lasted...erm...to this day! Do you get an artist to sign their record or wot??!! Does it detract...or add?! I can't remember what we all decided....I was happy with it all whatever...and would have gladly had my copy signed by him....if i'd have had one!!!!hehe!x @@ ~ LUV SOOTY X Edited May 1, 2013 by SOOTY 3 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Russ Vickers Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 I'm.still after a Sammy Campbell missed one on here at 150 quid....Spanish Maiden is a good Latin mod record. Played at the 100 Club way back in the 8ts by Clarkie et al, never though of it as a Mod record tho, just a good dance record. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Len Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 (edited) That is where it probably 'filtered' down to the Mod Scene from - quite a few did, and (to me) Spanish Maiden was a huge 'Mod' record, because on that Scene is where I heard it (not quite as 'way back then' Russ....but, far enough!) Great record btw. All the best, Len Edited May 1, 2013 by LEN 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
