Read CENtral1179

Can't be bothered pal, save me the hassle and just quote it

dB121.... i'd love to go back to the Torch but sadly it got demolished

Dave Godin was reckoned to give "Northern" it's name after venturing "up north" and hearing a more up-tempo style separate to the Wheel,

a bit of a shock to his system. Privately, i think Dave disapproved.

Ok

After the closure of the Twisted Wheel in 1971, Chris Burton took up Keith Minshull's suggestion Saturday northern soul all-nighters at The Torch, holding its first on 11 March 1972.[3]

How could the torch northern soul allnighters have any influence on Dave Godin's thoughts about the music at the wheel ?

Read the forward penned by Dave Godin himself

In the excellent book by Kieth Rylatt&Phil Scott

Called CENtral 1179

The story if Manchester's Twisted Wheel Club

If your going to quote historical facts

ie "

Pleases do some reasearch

As for the music policy at the @New Twisted Wheel Club

I personally love it I do not try and tell other people what dance to listen to and where to go

Enjoy what you do mate and leave others to enjoy what they do

I know

No one is going to air brush anyone out

 

Love your Soul

 

But play new tunes dude !  If you don't introduce a few new records its gotta be finished for you soon

 

We have got 60 years of digging to do

its great fun, its not all about known monster rarities

its about the future of R&B

the good little ones and the rare ones, the collecting, finding the bargain cause you love it so much

not for ego, or for dj ing, but actually because you love vintage r&b music

 

just keep on collecting for yourself

 

peace

 

 

 

Hi gaz

 

 

Perhaps you might want to talk to my wife regarding my collecting habits. Presently I've got 1,046 CDs (that's over 26,000 tracks give or take some duplications...a few of those), consisting of Soul Music from the 60s and 70s, Northern,rare,classic, deep, r& b., all styles.

For over 30 years I swapped tapes of new sounds and oldies alike. still got 100s of tapes to transfer to CDs. I also buy/swap just about any 60s soul CD (some 70s) I find at the price I want to pay.....probably be 50,000 tracks  by year end.

Motown.........over 9,000 tracks...and that's not counting all the tracks on the Complete Motown sets......1959-1972.............thousand s there too.

So, not sure that me making an occasional visit to the Revised Wheel (and if I go on Sunday it will be my first visit to the new club) means that I somehow DON'T love Soul music.

Ok

Fair enough pal, you know your stuff so credit due, but didn't like your first response , a bit shit that. Not sure who your last paragraph above is aimed at?

Whose telling who what to dance or listen to??? I certainly enjoy what i do and wouldn't interfere with anyones personal choices

Best post I've read on here for a long time.

 

Cheers mate. Humble opinion, etc.
