Whitby Soul Club got off to a flying start on it's first night.

Great venue, great sounds and a packed floor of 'heavily refreshed' soulies.

Credit due to Marc (Young Jessie) James for organising such a great night.

So wheres the playlists?

Perlean Grey and Chuck Jackson...not heard them out for a long time. Top sounds almost at the beginning of the scene at the Torch and Wheel respectively.

BrianB - they went down well and the crowd was a mixture of both younger and older people.

All the other DJ's / Collectors played some quality sounds as well, Marc James, Bobby Casino, Gary (Spike) Sleighthome, Tim Argument and Jessie James.

All in all, a great night.
