  1. Event: Grumpy Soul Take Over Culcheth May 3rd Review: 5 stars by Mickyfinn. Event Date: 3 May 2025 You could tell it was going to busy night, most of the seating was taken shortly after opening. We entered the main room, a haven for rare and under played cuts. Phil Threlfall playing the Embers ‘First Time’. Followed by another gem from the superb Hesitations Soul Superman LP, ‘Soul Kind of Love’. Pete Radcliffe was warming up the 2nd room, dedicated to crossover and modern soul. A new Kent release, Jon Lucien’s ‘We’ve Got Love’. Followed by the m... Tap to view the full event review
  2. am guessing that you are logged in to mixcloud and as the creator then maybe its loading for you ok but as a guest it's not working here try using the share link feature, it should give you a link such as this one https://www.mixcloud.com/fingerpoppinsoulsoulradiofroma/fingerpoppin-soul-1643-01-05-2025/ a good way to test any link is to logout or use another browser
  3. this link just goes to mixcloud home page - telling me... Play, share and make money from music what's going on? wrong link? or is it a members only thing nowadays?
  4. LRK records have just announced details of anupcoming 45 from James Holvay (who was recently featured in both our Source News and Video features). James Holvay - Love That Lady / Don't Take Your Love - LRK Records 33 Limited Edition 7" black Vinyl 300 copies Pre-order of Love That Lady / Don't Take Your Love. You get 2 tracks now (streaming via the free Bandcamp app and also available as a high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more), plus the complete album the moment it’s released Release notes Chicago-born JAMES “SOUL” HOLVAY is a real survivor. The veteran singer, songwriter and guitarist is probably best remembered for writing the US pop no. 1 hit ‘Kind Of A Drag’ for the Buckinghams in 1967. James then went on to lead his own band, the Mob, but as musical tastes changed in the late 70s, the band split up and James turned away from the music business. In 2020, spurred on by the rise of retro soul, James decided to make a musical comeback, delivering his take on the soul music he’d grown up with in Chicago – the sounds of Curtis Mayfield, Major Lance, Gene Chandler, Johnny Pate et al. In 2021 he released an EP, ‘Sweet Soul Song’ which drew praise from Johnny Pate himself and made James something of a cult figure amongst 60s Chicago soul collectors. Earlier this year, James released a new EP, ‘Working Man’ , on which, once again, the soundscape was the classic sound of 60s Chicago and it’s from that EP that the two new LRK tracks are taken. The A side is ‘Love That Lady’, a tune that embodies all that was good about 60s Chicago soul, while the putative B side is ‘Don't Take Your Love’, which sounds like a long lost Curtom artefact. These new tracks, released by LRK Records as a limited-edition 45, are a must-have for fans of vintage soul and collectors of rare 45s. Holvay's ability to blend catchy melodies with genuine emotion remains unmatched — don't miss the chance to own a piece of this Chicago soul legacy!

  10. This Friday, May 2nd, Acid Jazz Records and Ace Records kick off the Spring Revisited campaign fully — a major collaboration celebrating the rich musical legacy of New York’s iconic Spring Records. The first 12” release features dynamic new remixes of Millie Jackson’s 1979 classic "We Got To Hit It Off" by internationally renowned DJs Dimitri From Paris and Opolopo. Both were granted full access to the original 24-track master tapes, reconstructing the song from the ground up to create two vibrant reworks that stay true to the spirit of the original while making it fresh for today’s dancefloors. Dimitri From Paris’ version premiered on DJ Spoony’s show on BBC2, quickly climbing to #2 on Traxsource, while Opolopo’s mix debuted on Mark Knight’s show on Kiss FM and reached #5 on Traxsource — signaling strong early support from the global dance community. For Spring Revisited, a dozen highly respected DJs and producers were invited to reimagine a wide range of tracks from the Spring Records catalog. Each artist was given full access to the original masters, resulting in energetic, respectful updates that honor the timeless soul, funk, and R&B of the originals while introducing them to a new generation of music lovers. "We Got To Hit It Off (Dimitri From Paris & Opolopo Remixes)" will be available digitally on all major platforms, alongside a limited edition 12” vinyl via Acid Jazz Records. Millie Jackson says: “Haha, that's great you picked ‘We Got To Hit It Off’ — it was never a hit for me back in the day. Really looking forward to hearing it in a new version!" The Spring Revisited series will continue throughout 2025, with further digital releases and limited vinyl drops, culminating in a deluxe collector’s box set this fall. ________________________ For more information visit: https://www.springrevisited.com/

  17. Event: Byron Northern Soul -with Mark Hopes Review: 5 stars by Fred Benson. Event Date: 26 Apr 2025 Second event at this new venue in Hucknall, 5 mins from M1. Went along as the music policy suited my taste and I was still feeling a bit low after the events of last week. Easy to find, a few hundred yards off the main road and a very large car park. Room itself is quite big, adequate tables and seating, with a brand new dancefloor installed by the promoters. The sound was top class and deck cameras confirmed only original records were being played and ... Tap to view the full event review

  22. Event: 45 Revolutions Review: 5 stars by Janet Watmough. 1 member rated this review helpful. Event Date: 25 Apr 2025 Love this venue! With a superb dance floor. The lovely Michelle on the door. Tony Poff and Alan Massey have got it just right with the music. Having proper collectors of Soul music to DJ and delight us with there fabulous collections of vinyl. Friday night yet again was a brilliant night!! All the Dj’s played excellent spots. Good to see my lovely friend Jumping Joan on the decks. Excellent set! And thank you for Tap to view the full event review
  23. you could do quite easy it with sound forge back in the late 1990s and guess others just increase the pitch and as ya say if affects the vocal and leaves the backing given up being surprised that people are falling for it still
  24. Event: 45 Revolutions Review: 5 stars by Mickyfinn. 1 member rated this review helpful. Event Date: 25 Apr 2025 I’ve been meaning to get to this venue for some time. A great sounding name that lived up to it. Friendly atmosphere, a top dance floor with great tunes. Just what you need on a Friday night. It was quiet early doors; Alan Massey had the warmup set. The lesser played side of the Commands twofer ‘No Time for You’, next a backing singers delight with Bobby Patterson’s ‘What a wonderful Life.
