View full article

Great to hear, blindman! 

A very timely tribute as the 30th of October was Jim's birthday. He would have been 47 today.

 

Will look forward to giving the show a listen. 

Bless him. Happy Birthday Jim. When I listen to your shows, it still seems like you're with us.

I did another show witch Marco and it got a bit out of hand at times. All very drunk with poor Jim trying his best to keep some decorum, Such an unassuming lovely chap.

Great stuff !

Great post and thank you so much ..great to hear his voice again I shall raise a glass at the 100 club to him this weekend.

Great show with some tunes I knew and some I didn't. Thanks for uploading.

Just like to ask what the track was after Magic Garden, didn't hear who it was singing it, does anyone know please?

Hi Geoff. It's the Ster-Phonics, Don't Leave on Mas-Stock records. Glad you liked it.

I have the Soulcast shows on mini disc somewhere. They were such an inspiration for many of us at the time and led to me doing the Deepfunk Radio shows (which I still have and should probably upload somewhere).

 

This was before the days of soul-source audio, youtube, smart phones etc.

 

I'm sure I've seen Jim out of the corner of my eye at The 100 Cub many times since his passing, dancing away. Gone but not forgotten.

here's your playlist from 2003 James

 

 

can remember featuring it a fair few times but the earlier ones must be somewhere in the offsite archives

 

if got time then think there's quite a few pages in the wayback machine if people want to dig out plays etc

Thanks, Mike. Was way before you had sound capability here, wasn't it? When did you start refosoul?

Thank you.

we used to do clips and sixpacs etc from round 1998 onward

but that was all a sort of different thing than Jims fine radio shows which were sort of 'live' and regular and as you say inspiring etc   

have just  been informed of an update 

 

If you enjoyed Jim Detritrio's Soulcast. I've found another one from 2003. Marco Santucci, Me and Jim.
