Dave Abbott.

Russ

Hi Russ,i agree with you here Dave Abbott + Pete Hulatt + Dolly(100 club).

All three with fantastic tunes and know how to play them out..

Toby..

Now you're steping into the terrirtory of some of the countries best rather than those breaking through... yes.gif

Agree with you though and all got rave reviews when they DJ'd at Bury ( to the point that Pete and Dolly are back for our final night next month!)

More than a little facetious i would say Peter, Dave Evison is clearly from the Northern Soul jurassic period!

i would bring up myself about dj'in but i havent been out and about due to no money :D

been going to alniters this year to get used to the type of music being played,

and i got my first main room spot at rugby in november!! :P

does this count as me getting abowt ??? :rolleyes:

brett

Never heard him do a bad spot.

...........

Actually the same can be said about my old mate Rob Kay....seriously under rated.

Chris

richie conn,lenny harkins,allan mc kenzie,div miller, john pugh,kenny onions, thats your all nighter sorted.and andy dennison,

One i forgot to mention.............mmmmmmmm and if you can get a pint out of him,your a better man than me !

Yes its got to be the one and only PETE ECCLES....Now,has he got some 45s.

Fookin good laugh too,crackin sense of humour.

(that should secure me a beer)

Ady Lupton and garethX are very veratile chaps and I don't hear them nearly enough...(or is that because i rarely leave the house :P )...

you'll have to do a bit more than that to get a beer out of Pete Eccles!. :unsure:

Agreed, great DJ, I nearly said Pete yesterday but he comes in the 'made it' catagory rather than breaking through.. he's been DJ'ing for ages...hundred's of years in fact!. :lol: Although we are talking about breaking on to niter scene I suppose

and I tend to hear him at soul nights.. DJ'd at Bury several times cos 'he's dead good (despite being a wanderers fan)..

CHICO AND MARK SPEAKMAN (NWALES) :unsure:

Have to agree about my mate Chico, he's always one step ahead of the game. :lol:

Sheffield's Brett Franklin is a fine dj who delights with sumptuous 70's and crossover sounds.

Should that read versatile ?

I'd like to see some young up & coming djs, remember in the olden days when NS djs used to have hair, their own teeth & everything...

Do alot of northern djs swap dentures these days ? Is this the latest craze sweeping the fucntion suites of the uk ? Radical !!!

Thanks for the kind words, Reg, but I think my sometimes abrasive personality had led to me falling out with practically everyone who runs a rare soul night in the UK and much of continental Europe. Currently taking bookings for 2009 in the former Soviet Republics and maybe leftist Latin America...

hi there i wrote earlier in this thread :lol:

Im 18 and like i said before got my first main room spot on at rugby,

plus have DJ'd at The LEL in St.Ives plus Soulin Sunday,

and also in the free style room last year at Rugby before they changed to alniters.

Brett

ok, i'll do it smile.gif

Pete Griff

Alan Patterson, Fraser Dunn and Jock O'Conner do it for me biggrin.gif three of the best and most progressive dj's from Scotland, all three should be heard a helluva more they all have collections and

a knowlege thats second to none

Harry

Alan Patterson was top notch at Soul Revolution last week and drew high praise from all quarters. Fraser is always a marvel in the deep room at Yarmouth. Remind me who this Jock O'Connor guy is?

hammy from bedford way

cliff steele

pete lyster

kevin healey

blake

fred kroll

all play good stuff thats not run of the mill

left out close mates to avoid them being embaraced

Jayne ,point was with Cliff and Fred,they only DJ at burnley and need to be heard by a wider audience.It all depends on the music policy Harry wants at his venue.I DJ'd at Burnley recently,does that mean i've broken through laugh.gif

Salmon

can't really speak for ..fred or cliff.....but two of the most honest fellas you could meet.They buy records cause they love the music,djing just seems to be secondary to em as it does to a lot of vinylistas.I would add if a wider audience want to hear em, go to the venue they dj at....now that ain't hard is it now :lamsey: ......can't be doing with some of the dj's who seem to be djing from lands end to john agroats as if it's important to be SEEN.....all the best tezza

Both Kitch and Andy Dyson are severely under-heard throughout the country as a whole.

very true

Killa, Karl Rhodes, Karl Heard, Dave Rivers & Stuart Cheetham..
excellent choices all,add Phil Kowalski top tuneage,needs to be heard by more people :thumbsup:

Brett

I think sometimes Brett, young Dj's, great record collection or not, get ignored.... :thumbsup:

I'll second the Karl Heard vote, what a DJ! :) Also Pete Robinson of Marrs Bar/Tommy Cooper fame isn't heard enough-he's got some fooking awesome records!

Not up and coming!

But what happend to John Venn ? I remember him from the Whitchurch Civic Center late 70's uesd to think he was a good DJ that needed more play time than he got i think he was a mate of Mick Holdsworth or was it Mick Derry ? two more fine DJ's from back then i'd like to see behind the decks.

Steve J

Harry, I think in your neck of the woods, you're sitting on a goldmine of underrated spinners - I nominate Col Denham and Gaz Simon thumbsup.gif

SOME MIGHT SAY US PINCHES TWINS SHOULD GET MORE AIR TIME, BUT THEN AGAIN OTHERS MIGHT SAY ph34r.gifbiggrin.gif .

BRI (ONE OF TWO).

excellent choices all,add Phil Kowalski top tuneage,needs to be heard by more people yes.gif

Salmon

Well we know where they're to be found......this is not quite a religion (yet lol) so people should get in their cars and SEEK EM OUT!!!! why any of the norths djs need travel south is beyond me wink.gifbiggrin.gif

THE LEGEND IS JUST THAT AND WE DON'T WANT TO SHARE HIM LOL laugh.gif .

Tony Coleby--from the Bradford area--Fantastic knowledge,Great sense of humour,buys his own beer,been D.J.ing sinse 1978(Reflections Middlesboro)now plays 60,s Detroit,Crossover ,Modern,UNDERPLAYED OLDIES ,and requests (if he,s got them) Got the best collection of Pyjamas i the north east --and the unreleased female vocal to "The Way You Been Acting Lately"

In my opinion a thoroughly good egg and his farts aren,t as bad as they wer in the queue at Wigan in 1977.

Best Mrs.K.Coleby (Tony,s mam)

Des Parker, one of the very best and not heard enough, Wayne Hudson, awesome collection, Phil Threlfall and John Parker, both brilliant at Holmes Chapel, Alan Paterson without a doubt and that'll do for now, I'll get back to you with more :thumbsup:

David

richie conn,lenny harkins,allan mc kenzie,div miller, john pugh,kenny onions, thats your all nighter sorted.and andy dennison,

That's the very first time I have been recommended as a DJ, and in such illustrious company, I am honoured and surprised, made my day that has :thumbsup:

I hate the fact that anyone with a handful of records is a DJ on this scene...I like to think along the lines of that old female adage

It's not what you've got...it's what you do with it that counts

:D:thumbsup:
