we did have a botw member who posted up show info up into the event guide @Band on the Wall was the member, but I think they no longer work for the venue ? the posts made did seem to have got a lot of interest going by views etc and would guess that helped both exposure and attendance a fair bit as said looking at taking up the current slack on this side of events - starting next week should be back up to speed

Original Vinyl Only Policy - A reasoning?
Recent post in the box forum highlighting jms latest auction results had some interesting reading Of course as ever with a lot of record dealers spiel there is always the major issue of sales type people trying to tell us all what we should do, but once you get past that elephant, then there is an interesting and quite well put (imo) summary/reasoning of some of the thinking/reasons behind the 'original vinyl only' policy clipped relevant bits below... full wording via link below https://www.soul-source.co.uk/forums/topic/378106-j-manship-auction-results-29112017/ interesting? views ?

Northern Soul's Classiest Rarities Volume 6 - Kent Records
After an almost 3 year gap we now have volume 6 of this series out on the streets. The tagline of 'high-quality dance records from across the Northern Soul spectrum – floor-fillers, chin-strokers, the esoteric and the sometimes obvious' gives the game away and if still need convincing you can listen and read just what Northern Soul's Classiest Rarities means below... Preview Album Via Juno Records Player Company Blurb from @ady croasdell It’s nearly three years since the last volume of this respected series. The eye-opener on this new collection will be the previously unissued version of ‘I Only Cry Once A Day Now’, a superb Gene Page arrangement treasured by the Puffs on Doré but performed here by the mighty Fidels. Fellow Los Angeles vocal group the Hyperions contribute the catchy and exciting ‘Why You Wanna Treat Me The Way You Do’, and the Lon-Genes’ rare single ‘Dream Girl’ gives further kudos to that city’s soul reputation. Difosco (aka Dee Ervin) recorded the ebullient ‘Sunshine Love’ for another Los Angeles imprint, Earthquake, and its standing among collector’s continues to grow, while we finally put out the correct brass-filled version of Peggy Woods’ great mid-80s discovery ‘Love Is Gonna Get You’ for the first time on CD. Much-travelled soul ambassador Sidney Barnes has licensed us his super-rare production of ‘I Wanted To Tell You’ by Little Nicky Soul and later under-the-radar creations on Andre Scott and Jean Carter. He has also added substantially to the booklet notes in an illuminating and entertaining manner. Sid’s Detroit production partner, soon-to-be superstar George Clinton, offers up ‘You Won’t Say Nothing’ by Tamala Lewis, one of the earliest works from his New Jersey days. That disc eventually became a Northern Soul classic, as did Jackie Day’s ‘Naughty Boy’, Johnnie Taylor’s ‘Friday Night’ and Betty Turner’s ‘The Winds Kept Laughing’. An even more established gem is given an interesting twist in a newly acquired early version of Maxine Brown’s ‘One In A Million’; the subtle differences make it an aural thrill. The Just Productions tapes have turned up an earlier version of Jack Ashford’s ‘I’ll Fly To Your Open Arms’, called simply ‘I Can Fly’, by great vocal group the Magnificents. The Detroit Emeralds’ LP-only ‘Long Live The King’ is finding favour with soul fans recently and sounds vibrant here. More Detroit quality comes via a recent tape discovery from O.C. Tolbert, whose distinctive vocals give Dave Hamilton’s ‘(Marriage Is Only) A State Of Mind’ a soulful twist. There are two majestic big beat ballads from the vaults of Los Angeles arranger Jack Nitzsche: Nooney Rickett’s unissued ‘Sad Tomorrows’ and Daniel A Stone’s terrific take on ‘Young Boy Blues’. Jock Mitchell’s moody and mysterious ‘Nomad Woman’ fits snugly between the pair. Two excellent early soul rarities come from Chicago soul stalwarts the Vows and the Kittens, while it’s over to Memphis for a pretty Carla Thomas recording (unreleased until 1992) called ‘Little Boy’, the perfect ender to this collection of treasures.

let's start with the female "A's" - see if we get to the "Z"
if you look 'right' at the bottom of every topic you start you should see an option titled 'moderation actions' hit that and 'lock' option should show to you closure time wise maybe best if just stay flexible and see how things go?

Northern Soul In the Mainstream
looks like northern soul exposure in the mainstream media in 2017 ain't going away anyone see.... recent c4 'first date' 'show with some 60+ mod/scooter type geezer demonstrating to the waiter how to dance northern style the recent daily mirror take on the recent strictly northern bit claiming 'Strictly Come Dancing viewers shocked to see Ann Widdecombe make surprise return during Northern Soul group dance in Blackpool' no letup it seems could it be argued that 'northern soul' in whatever form or shape is actually mainstream now?

Bob & Gene with The Inversions - Upcoming Daptone 45 Release
Interesting pre-release news from Daptone on another 'collaboration between 2017 The Inversions and 1971 Bob and Gene Bob & Gene ft. The Inversions - It's Not What You Know (It's Who You Know) Here are... the blurb and track Producer Victor “Ticklah” Axelrod is back with another supple Reggae delight. After the success of The Inversions' last collaboration with Bob & Gene, Axelrod once again takes a seat in the Producer’s chair, this time with a tune a little deeper in the catalogue. Originally tweezed from the beautiful MO DO tape boondoggle, back in ‘05 - ‘06, this single has been a long-time favorite of the Daptone family. One night in 1971, frustrated by their lack of the success, Bobby Nunn and Gene Coplin sat in the basement of 50 Orange Street and put together a record expressing said frustration. Equipped with only a guitar, bass, and piano - no drums (though you don’t even notice) - the two crafted an immaculate slice of Soul, aptly titled “It’s Not What You Know (It’s Who You Know)”. Fast forward 46 years, and now accompanied by the rocksteady rhythms of The Inversions - the vocal stylings and poignant lyrics are reborn, sounding as fresh today as it did when it was crafted down in that magical basement. The VERSION flip is a delay laden masterpiece produced and arranged by Axelrod. A must for fans of Dub and Reggae alike. A truly gorgeous record! Pre -order now https://shopdaptonerecords.com/collections/featured-items/products/its-not-what-you-know-its-who-you-know-b-w-version due out soon
