Sometimes when I've heard a record played loud in a venue it sounds great. So much better than at home! Can't believe I've had it my collection for years! Like this Jimmy Robbins!

I remember when Wade Flemmons "Jeanette" was cheap and how different/better it sounded played loud in a venue💥

Any had that effect on you?💫

Wombat "I'm Getting On Life " still got a copy , played it numerous times, never sounds the same , probably a Cat's tune massive WC ,circa 74 , doesn't do it for me no matter how loud it's played nowadays.

 

I don't get out much to soul events but heard Cresa Watson - Salvation played by Ted Massey on Saturday.  I sounded bloody awesome👋🏿

Vanguards lamp records good times fantastic tune great at a big venue

Wombat:

A Max play from the Catacombs, late summer 1973. It was very popular, though, personally, I couldn't stand it. To think he could have played the Tempos or Superlatives and instead this was filling the floor. Also, it seemed to go on forever, which compounded the frustration.

Yes, but don't let the price put you off, I remember when lots of today's big sounds were plentiful and cheap from the Soul Bowl!😉

Trade Martin on Stallion sounds thunderous in big venues, but then we all know that!  Get IN!!  

Turley Richards awesome! as at the Casino, although as a guest dj 20yrs ago i played it at a Halifax Ukrainian club soul night and it cleared the floor...

I find some records are All-nighter records💥 Then some suit Soul/night evenings better🍸   Then there are some that work in both!💫

Narbay sounded awesome at Keele. Great to hear boss four at Swinton over Xmas, remember this being a mainstay of butch's set's when I first got into northern, definitely one that benefits from a big room.
