what is the point of announcing a re activisation of an oldie? has the dj or djs in question got nothing new? or have they a box full of the record being activated?? its no bother 2 me i would never buy such a thing, unless i liked it and had not heard it previously.am interested in the logic behind the great fuss attending the playing of oldies we all know!!!! ezzie apologies if this has been discussed before!!!!!!!

Don't get me wrong - i love to hear a reactivation but like i've said before it doesn't just depend where you go or what part of the country you're in but who's playing it i.e Butch playing Hold on help is on the way - G Davis/R Tyler at Jacks - would it have been accepted if anyone else had played it ?????

Well me and Val have never been stoned to death by an irate crowd when we've stuck it on.....good to see Butch is following our shining example of polishing the dust off this record and playing this stunning instrumental Jo

Tower of Power - So Very Hard

Just a few favourites of mine

Never heard this played out...bought this on release on UK WB when I was working in a record shop....it still kills me every time Jo

I just know in the next few weeks Ill get a tap on the shoulder from some one saying why are you dancing to blah, this is an 'oldie'....& it'll probably be you .

Now I know what you look like I will Russ, yes!

...I just hope you don't find me dancing to any of that silly modern soul stuff appears to be rather popular (although it has been known if I've had few too many sherberts and am getting over excited)

On a personal note I actually quite like the track and always have - incidentally it was at the 1st 100 club Jacks when he spun it.
