    Lowton Civic Friday 08 Aug Strange days in North Wales, last month has involved all sorts. Lifts failing to turn up for the Dome, plans to get to Wilton failing, people finding themselves at home on Saturdays nites watching tv with bemused families, a downward trend in vinyl going ons, reports of people staring at a phone all nite that never rings and so on. Now some think that all these strange going ons may have something to do with fact that a certain Holyhead person has just switched jobs and now spends 30 days stretches on a ship sailing round the British Isles. Well the theorists seemed to have won the argument, as it was the first weekend that Stevie T was back on shore, and as at 9 o clock on a Friday I found myself going down A55, in a well worn out chugging minibus, that apparently gets used by a slaughter house team in week, which may explain the stains inside all over the roof and a funny smell. No slight ease back into it, myself and Shane (who was home from Manalia on holiday) did the mandatory half hour wait, a wtf look at state of the minibus, and then it was down the A55. Two hours later, a few wrong turns, we had people from all over the place in bus, all stops on the North Wales Coast, cars catching us up and people jumping in,even picked up a new recruit from Lowton, refreshment included a bottle of wine won at a far off Viaduct, yes it was business as normal. With the event being a mini-niter at Lowton, the first time for a few months for me, could say were definitely in the mood for a good night, we tumbled out, boxes, flyers going all over the place. With another 4 or 5 cars from North Wales was a fair old contingent. Got to say always enjoy Lowton, always have a laugh and a good crack, plus the dj line up as with most events attend more often than not seems to be a good one, the days of in one door to main hall, then driven straight back out by “big name” djs who think “just a little misunderstanding” is what people traveled a 100 odd miles for, doesn’t seem to happen anymore. Place was packed, knew Ian Cuncliffe was on, disappointed to find out he had to do a early set, so missed out. Popped in the modern room and it was kicking, a big crowd, good buzz, quick look for wanted new releases, quick birthday greetings to Pete known as Bangor’s modern soul man , who was celebrating his 40th birthday! Quick word with Roger W out and about as a punter and enjoying himself, quick try to flog Airtight 45 to him, but no joy due to his no more vinyl stance, a laugh at how when he did “All Era Room” at Monkey all the northern types wanted to clock him, and shocked when he was not a 6ft 6 permed hair ex mecca type with horns Plus the way he managed to steer 70 people from the modern list to visit Dave Lucas folded arms photo, but managed somehow to make them miss this “fetching” photo almost right next to it view Modern room what caught was definitely buzzing. Down corrider to R and B room, Big Mick was on and given out some quality r n b,.Steve T had a spot in their later on, me and Johnny J made the most of this as this gave us great ammo when continuing our ongoing banter battle:) But just joking, as always dished out some great selections. Main room was going strong, nice surprise to catch Soul Sam doing a set, but only caught last bit, stuff such as “If cant say anything good….” Marvin Gaye "come get to this" a bit of 2003 gear, finished set off playing flip of Morris Chestnut which in his usual enthusiastic way he just raved about. Tim Brown up next and gave out some great stuff, Vanguards, memory says an instrumental with last minute miracle/Motown flavour, Derek Martin and Flashback. Travels and trips between other rooms and even a trip out meant not much more main room details, memory says Andy D doubled decked with Dean A, was told Alex Jones was on, but not sure, caught some great stuff from Bob Hinsley, pure joy to hear Detroit Sounds Of Friction, plus stuff like Oz and Sperlings all sounded good. A lot of record sellers and dealers there with a wide selection of stuff on offer, best laugh was when was offered a cover up in some deal, it all clicked together, was sure heard a certain guest dj at 100 playing old North Wales fav King Curtis Foot Padding part 2 on atco, but when asked him, he gave me some story about it being Jr Walker “Across the track” on soul, which as it is a basically a jr walker rip off and my untrusty ears thought was plausible, but when found out it was a actual "cover" all came clear. Soul Sam was the next victim of my attempts to flog spare Airtight 45. And even got him listening but all was in vain, so can still pounce on it now. listen Sam passed on that next weeks Broughton guest is Arthur Fenn and event is going firm on every third Saturday, which fits in well with Goldbourne Niter for us as on way, the cheap prices both on door and beer make it a good 2 event nite. Think confirmed details for the 7 th time with Andy Dyson regarding future events, this time we got as far as writing the date down.. Overall had a most enjoyable time, was to me a great nite, great crowd, atmosphere, the best one had there for a while.

    Big thanks to Danny for posting this in ..great stuff, informative , enjoyable , top dog! Northern Soul in Dublin is still alive. Sleepless Nights has taken up the mantle and ensures our growing family meet at least monthly. Add 2 successful allniters and 2002 will reflect that the rot has stopped and better days might be round the corner for our City. Raining for last few days, a few emails and a Paul Davis phone call before 10am ask the question is it still on tonight, "course it is" I tell them all defiantly....hey better check that Doyles isnt under 2 feet of water as its only yards from the river Liffey. A quick phone call confirms that my spoofing is rewarded this time. Friday night dos mean Im hoping to finish work early, not always possible in the courier business and again tonight its a big rush, roads closed, ok I will drive in, only have 2 pints and drive home (great intentions) Some roads impassable I get there about 9.15 thankfully lads already there shifting tables, music on etc (thanks John, Karl, Ross, Brian) Our first hour is a "free decks" slot, tonight Brian, johns brother plays a great intro/chill out set, ridding us of our tensions and getting everyone into a soul groove. Ross on only his 2nd dj slot ever officially starts things with some good xover. A "new" guy on the Dublin scene, Mike McNulty or Macca from Derby (MFD) turns up with some records and asks if we can play them later! Macca has been busy replacing the sounds he sold/mislaid over the years. We look at the cardboard packages posted from the US with mouths agape. Macca has just travelled back from somewhere in the middle east via Mayo where he now lives and booked a hotel in Dublin to be here tonight, we all spontaneously agree that we reduce our slots to 40 minutes and let Macca spin his own tunes. MFD wants to buy me a beer, I buy him one back... and the promise of only 2 pints goes straight out the window, I have a really low temptation level. MFD spins his sounds, some great oldies, the place is filling up and that feel good factor has hit us. Next on flows Karl Mitchell one of the resident three, Pip follows (this guy like the night itself keeps improving). These fellas make my job easy and everyone is up and dancing to the x the board set. John Dunne as usual finishes the night in his own unique way. From his playlist you will see that Chaka Khans "Im every woman" features? Maybe not a purists choice but most of the people attending are only at their 1st, 2nd or 3rd Northern Night, and the odd "disco" track helps break down barriers. It is great to see these kids hear and dance so enthusiastically to Northern for the first time, something thats commented on by overseas soul brothers/sisters attending nights in Dublin. Our intention being that Northern is delivered in an enjoyable way. Not always (but usually) on the original label, re issues and the odd boot allowed (we dont have a cd player, big scene or easy access to vinyl) Already we see the spin off with new collectors and an increasing awareness of the music from the requests received, this in turn will raise standards.

    Orginally posted in news section, counts etc moved across Review of Prestatyn - Midnight Hour Northern and Modern Soul weekender 2002 Well another weekend and another weekender! After the fabulous Conniseurs Weekend at Llandudno last weekend, it was time to yet again get act together and get on the road to carry out the short trip up coast to the Pontins Holiday Centre at Prestatyn to catch the first ever Midnight Hour Northern and Modern Soul weekender. Was it as billed a "Soul Event Of The Year" ? Was the apperance of Tony Middleton and Ray Pollard a "one to remember"? Well going to have to hit that read more to find out !! A just "had to leave"early report. Stuff at home meant had to miss the final night, so while still fresh in my mind thought I give my quick view on the weekender. As always just my own views, agree or disagree......get them in Put red pens away. No elaborate writing style intended and no care or thought taken, just writing it as it comes out so apologies to those students of English grammar amongst us Well another weekend and another weekender! After the fabulous Conniseurs Weekend at Llandudno last weekend, it was time to yet again get act together and get on the road to carry out the short trip up coast to the Pontins Holiday Centre at Prestatyn to catch the first ever Midnight Hour Northern and Modern Soul weekender. Gotta say after last weekend where my ears were subject to 72 hours of the most concentrated amount of quality rare soul they have had to handle, the thought of 2 more niters and a dayer to get through had me in a slight concern of rare soul overload. However these concerns turned out to be well misplaced proving you cant have too much of a good thing. .Half a hour later found meself in the middle of Pontins, in quality accommodation with the gang of five (from all over uk we usually meet up every few months for quality events, as last one was CSC at Lowton had fair bit of taking mick to get through). Admission was straight forward and no hassle at all with getting sorted and finding it. Quite impressed with rooms, was in club class, all mod cons and everything you need including free ear plugs and cleaners!. Unpacked, thought bit of relaxation coming on, and then 5 minutes later found myself "volunteering" to help Steve Fletcher of Wire FM with his radio hour. The format was an interview with Brian Rae concerning the Charly Cd series which were as you know the pioneers of cd releases. My role was to act as "sound engineer" which went quite smooth once carried out the online test of sussing out which cd eject button was which "yeah thats the one playing now" and only one wrong track which was Brians fault (of course). The interview, well as anyone who knows Brian can guess, it was very informative loads of info, facts, trivia and background stories on the actual cds, and also the tracks and the artists.The shows continued throughout the whole weekend piped into all the rooms via the tv, featuring many guests, all styles of soul and some great radio "moments". Rob Messer tied up in a chair with a plastic bag over him, somehow still managing to cue and announce 45s being one. First niter was a cracker, as said earlier in preview, it was claimed this venue could have been custom built for a weekender, and here was the proof. Can remember it getting used a lot in 80s for funk type weekenders, and has also been used for Motown weekenders in the past, but think be right in saying first time used for Northern event.Got in there about 10 after all of us failed the intelligent test of looking door properly. Main hall was massive with quality dance floor that was getting well used. Some have said it was a bit slippy but there were some talc fiends knocking round. Tables were already filled up and a good buzz was going around. Bar area, first thing to find out was opening hours! "Errrr there are none, we have a 23 hour licence" was the encouraging reply Pint of lager was round about 2.30, so not that bad Service seemed quick through out. Record bar area was next to the bar area and very spacious. with many of the main dealers present along with "accessories" such as Roxys, Badge makers, Manifesto and so on. Seems from what I was told that the busy times of vinyl wheeling and dealing were in the afternoon. Next to this was large amusement arcade, which you had to get through to the modern room. Now this was a surprise, been conditioned at recent venues to modern rooms that are small, often seems as a bit of a afterthought. This one was massive, bigger than many main hall rooms. Everyone walking in stopped at entrance and did a double take. Rough guess of 300 odd in there, as always find the modern room always varies depending on dj on, when we visited was in a sort of main hall modern set. along with a few soul sam type plays. Spent a fair bit of time there as at this time main hall was going thru a oldies phase. Back to main hall and sound system spent most of time in main hall right up the top end next to speaker. Sound system to my worn out ears was quality and could hear sounds played clean and clear in bar and record room. Was a problem on Saturday nite after live artists with the settings but was sorted. Sounds/DJs - Well big location, many options, and so a bit hard to keep track of who did what when and where, list of all should be at end, apologies to modern crew but sounds and modern djs recognition bit dodgy, as always if you were there and can pass word on, please do. Main hall, well not really a "best spot" list but the three spots caught all off and enjoyed were Andy Rix, Dave Rimmer, and Chico, through out the nite heard quality sets but was moving all over the place. Sample list of sounds be at the end, but got to say the "urghh what is that " award goes to that 70s version of "I got the fever" ,did not enjoy at all and sure dj said manufactured. Unfortunately it got played twice the following nite. Style wise fairly balanced blend of something for everyone, the oldies orientated spots were no big problem as many other locations to go to. While the quality rare soul sets were just that... quality Crowd wise thing around 3 ish was peak ? Fell off thru the early hours, shame as some quality sounds were being pushed out. But more than likely due to "sensible" people saving themselves for the big nite. Got thru to around 8 then back to room, most of day was spent sorting out body clock and missed the "soul nite showcases" that were held in the main room, featuring djs from some of the uks top soul nites, should have been, Lincoln Soul Nite, Dublin Soul Nite, The Britt, Tonys, Asworth and Lowton. Main Event was Saturday night and to me the bit been looking forward to, which was the two live major guests - Ray Pollard and Tony Middelton due on at 11-30. Planned things around that, a few flyers to dish out, roped in mike hump and andy d as flyer team, complete with fake Yorkshire and cockney accents to match the flyers. Got through the odd pint or two, and then 11.30 come up, time for the live act. Backing band seemed well up to the task, and as someone pointed out they were actually acting like a "backing" band. Lot of laughs here as the keyboard player bore a resemblance to a certain northern dj. Andy Rix was doing the MC-ing, Tony Middleton was on first and out he come delivering some classy stuff - no prizes for guessing two - To The Ends Of The Earth and Paris Blues.Song up next, well was told the reason he picked this was cause he wanted to do something with a Welsh connection. So it was his version of Tom Jones "Its not unusual". (choice brought to mind another Tom Jones connection the film Whats Up Pussy cat where Tony M sang a track on soundtrack called My little red book). After Tony out come Ray Pollard, going by the programme we worked out that as he lost a arm in the Korean war his minimum age to be at least 68, unbelievable as looking and hearing at him seemed a whole lot younger. Songs delivered included This time, Somebody Elses Sweetheart, Its a Sad Thing and of course.... The Drifter Wow pure magic to me, but best was yet to come, after a bit of banter and messing around, both come out and treated us to one of those magic moments you will remember for rest of your life. Both doing a incredible duet of "I Have Faith In You", to me the atmosphere, timing and delivery all made it an incredible moment. Definitely the highlight of the event to me. The critics gave Ray Pollard the winning vote, voice performance wise, though to me both highly entertaining, and while the whole act must have been rehearsed fully, it still had a air of spontaneously which added to the enjoyment. Overall really enjoyed the whole act. Choice and the amount of songs was about right, the whole "feel" of it was tremendous, no over the top rigid production, just two great soul singers delivering classic soul nnd got to mention the "I have faith in you" duet again, inspired choice, and worked really well. Plus what summed up the whole spirit of event, throughout the weekend both stars were freely available to chat with, sign autographs and so on. Often popping up everywhere, bit of a shock when having a "sort you out" coffee to find Tony M on next table, this was typical of the whole event, no restrictions on videos, no over organised staged events.Just reinforced the feeling that this was an event for Soul fans put on by Soul fans, and as mate said it was also a chance to pay our respects and thanks to two great soul singers. Well what could follow that?? Try this for size the next five hours consisted of a DJ line up in following order Roger Banks, Andy Rix, Rob Thomas, Mark Bicknell then Carl Willingham Ouch, quality and then some or what, ended up doing a fair bit of catching up as a lot of mates from all over the uk there, and had a right old laugh. Rob Smith finished the nite off with final set that went well over the 8 o clock planned end and only finished after the cleaners formed a protest group. Overall a top nite Saturday, that duet being the highlight, with the quality sets underlining the fact that it was a top nite. Well as had some pre-planned stuff to do on Sunday at home, that if missed would be writing this in ward 10 of local hospital (as wife warned me), had to get away so missed the midday - 1 am Monday session, if you were there pass on how it went. Overall cloudy view the day after the event, well weekend to me was sheer entertainment, live artists set ....wonderful, sounds - some well top quality sets were dished out, the old "something for everyone" pops up again and reckon was achieved with a good balance of rarities/oldies on offer, the enormous modern room seemed to be getting well used, the facilities and organisation - gotta say highest quality, didnt spot any hiccups, accommodation was well on the ball, and the venues were outrageously good. Crowd - think capacity was 5000, at times there were 1000+ in and the venue handled it easy, no queues or ought. Numbers thinned a bit around 4 ish, but still a fair few doing the early morning shift on Sunday morning. Crowd wise, was a mixed crowd from all over UK, as said met up with people from all over London, Yorkshire, NWest, SE, SW in fact all corners. Large amount of North Wales gang in, after last two weeks think North Wales coast is on flood alert as may sink if it gets any more quality rare soul heaped on it. Sounds - well after 72 hours, many quality sounds, but after tapping out all above will give listing a miss, but will just mention the one record that is knocking around my head still Andy Rix Play - switch around-wallie hawkins and rose marie mccoy Final Verdict So it was billed as a "soul event of the year" did it live up to that? Well from my weekend experience, have got to say it lived up to that billing. Everyone I spoke to at event and since have gave it a big thumbs up ( 70s Fred Pontins pun intended). Some said it was the best faculties and organisation that they have come across. And as for entertainment and value wise, well entertainment wise well as you can guess by above I was thorough entertained. Value wise, well 30 odd quid for all the above, even though missed the last 12 hours got to say looking back ..a bargain. To finish off think following sums it up, one main factor which made the event for me, was the overall feeling of the whole event was ... quite simply the impression I got was it was a soul event put on for soul fans by soul fans. And everything reflected this, no over the top commericalism, no crappy 70s style politics, no djs gobbing off, no heavy handed security, no egos, no staged events. Just a Soul Event for Soul fans - simple but effective!! Extra Bit - Dates for next one are out, and have been told bookings are already at the 3 figure point, definte artists are not confirmed but word is could be two jaw dropping names and do mean jaw dropping. Big thanks from me to all responsible for weekend - The Midnight Hour Crew - Rob Wigley, John Poole, Fish, Rob Thomas, Mark Fletcher Know there was a fair few un-offical people helping out with various things - Steve Fletcher and Bernie OBrien were just two and am sure plenty of more who deserve credit but unfortunately havent names. The Djs - Andy Rix, Rob Thomas, Roger Banks, Dave Rimmer, Carl Willingham, John Parker, Kitch, Dave Raistrick, Pat Brady, Mark Bicknell, Simon Hunt,Chico, Kevin Thomas, Neil Rushton, Mick H, Rob Smith, Bernie O Brian, Jez Barlow, Carl and Joe (Dublin) Mick Boyle, Glyn Sisson, Scotty and Co, Andy Riley Modern - Rob Wigley, Andy Taylor, Chris Anderton, Mick Farrar, Steve Hobbs, Fish, Cliff Steele, Ivor Jones, Yogi H, Adam, The Modern Live acts - Shabazz and Gary desEtages And of course Tony Middleton and Ray Pollard

    Northern Soul Top 500

    Mike posted an article in Articles

    More information about "Northern Soul Top 500"
    Northern Soul Top 500 Written by Kev Roberts, published by Goldmine/Soul Supply Ltd in 2000. “Born in the ultra-cool Mod clubs of the late-sixties with names like The Blue Orchid, King Mojo and The Twisted Wheel, the sound was Motown, Stax, Atlantic and their imitators – American Soul music with an express train beat that found a spiritual home in England’s North and a name… ‘Northern Soul’. Driven by incredible sounds from Detroit, Chicago, Philadelphia, New York & the West Coast, it grew and developed at The Torch, Blackpool Mecca, The Catacombs until it exploded at Wigan’s Casino club. Now in its second wave, Northern Soul’s infectious beat is once again spreading to pack dancehalls across the country. From connoisseur Soul classics to the pop-stomp of the late 70s this book is the definitive chart of the 500 top sounds that put Northern Soul on the map”. “What actually constitutes a Northern 45 is open to conjecture. My gut reaction is to focus on what has been played at ‘Northern Soul’ all nighters rather than what is technically ‘Soul’ music”. “In the final analysis this chart is derived from overall long term popularity.” The book lists the current national average retail prices for each record, as determined by top UK dealer Anglo American in Todmorden, I’ve only listed the price when it’s £300 or more, just for interest, (this, of course, varies depending on supply & demand, and the prices listed here relate to the year the book was published). Official issue means the general release as opposed to the demo, (which is often much more common, in the case of rare records). If no particular issue is given, there is only one exists, be it a promo or official issue. There is a ‘Bubbling Under’ Top 100 that follows the main Top 500, and an essential CD listing. List is in order of popularity, by artist-song-original label-price. Northern Soul Top 500 1. Wilson, Frank – Do I Love You (Indeed I Do) (Soul) (£15,000) 2.

    Soul In The City All-Dayer 04 June 02 Soul In The City All-Dayer Bank Holiday 4th June Extra Jubilee bank holiday? OK lets have an All - Dayer S.I.T.C. has been going since December 2001& what started as a one off Christmas drink with the lads while playing a bit of Northern has become a regular monthly event on the London calender. We are mainly an oldies based venue but do try to use a bit of imagination as can be seen by our playlists on various outlets i.e. KTF Soultalk etc. as well as websites like Soul Source. We operate the first Tuesday of every month upstairs at The Old Blue Last pub in Great Eastern Street EC2, free entry, beer £2 a pint & with the first Tuesday of June a bank holiday it was too good an opportunity to miss. Apprehension over numbers, from me at least was unheeded, from 4pm healthy numbers were inside & the place was heaving by 5pm. A few travellers were present but the majority of attendees were regulars from the main London venues making it more like a party than anything else The atmosphere was superb,very laid back but at the same time up for anything that was played. So much so,even some of our “seasoned “guest DJ’s commented on it. The music from start till finish was varied & valid as was Martin “12pint” Thomson who started the day off brightly & finished it with a slightly glazed look about him!( as did most of us) A big thanks to all our guest Dj’s Andy Faulkner, Alan Handscombe,Simon Bridger,Rob Messer, Nick Brown who did his bit for the Jubilee by playing Queen of Fools & Kenny Burrell who chained his record box to a very unstable coat rack & also managed to clock up a very reasonable 2200 miles driving around the country Djing that weekend! DJ rosta was completed by SITC regulars Paul Mckay & myself Dave Greenhill. Some fantastic music was played, brilliant atmosphere & to top it all Helen turned up with a huge bag of assorted sandwiches ! Shame she didn’t dish out asprins for the following days headaches. Next SITC is on 2nd July, for a great night with the cheapest booze at a London venue get yourself down there! DJ’s playlists Martin Thomson early doors set: 3.00-3.45: Charades- you better believe it (Harlem Hit Parade) Ricardo King- On a hot summers day in the big city (Joker) Untouchables- Raisin sugar cane (Madison) Marvin Gaye- One more heartache (Tamla) Little Charles & Sidewinders- Its a heartache (Decca) Lee Williams & Cymbals- Lost love (Carnival) Montclairs- Wait for me baby (Sunburst) Jackie Ross- Keep your chin up (Brunswick) The Little Foxes- So glad your love dont change (Okeh) Fabulous Apollas- some good in everything bad (Valtone) Patti Austin- Leave a little love (Coral) Jean Brooks- tomorrow never came (G Note) Maxine Brown- you upset my soul (Wand) Mirettes- your kind aint no good (Mirwood) Radiants- Heartbreak society (Chess) Willy McDougal- Dont turn around (Kinard) Dean Barlow- third window from the right (Lescay) Calvin Williams- Lonely youll be (Northern De la) Vonns- So many days (King) Ila Van- got to get to Jim Johnson (Roulette) Rudy Lambert- love (Club 7) 11.15-12.00am: Silky Hargreaves- Keep loving me like you do (Dearborn) Tan Geers-let my heart and soul be free (Okeh) Sugar and Spices- have faith in me (Swan) Clarence Hill- a lot of loving going around (Mainstream) Danny White-miss fine miss fine (Frisco) Eddy Bo- Our love will never falter (Blue Jay) Gladys Tyler- a little bitty girl (Decca) Jimmy Castor- its OK (Jet set) Debonairs- Please come back baby (Soul Click) Cliff Nobles- my love is getting stronger (Atlantic) Charades- key to my happiness (MGM) Mousie and the Traps- How about you (Toddlin Town) Syl Johnson- do you know what love is (Special Agent) Celest Hardie- youre gone (Reynolds) Betty LLoyd- Im catching on (BSC) Chubby & Turnpikes- I didnt try (Capitol) Simon Bridger (In no particular order): Otis Rush - Homework @ Duke DJ Fabulous Denos - Ive enjoyed being loved by you @ King WDJ The Soul City - Who do you think you are @ Goodtime WDJ Tommy Mosley - You lied, i cried, love died @ Uptown Temptations - Girl (why you wanna make me blue) @ Gordy Four Tops - Wonderful baby @ Motown Clark Richard - Come home @ Show Falcons - Good good feeling @ Big Wheel Yvonne Carroll - Please dont go @ Vee-Jay DJ April Stevens - Wanting you @ M-G-M Bobby Hutton - Come see whats left of me @ Philips Lilly Fields - Ive got to tell you @ Holton Magic Night - If you & i had never met @ Roulette WDJ Linda Jones - My heart needs a break @ Warner Bros.

    Leaving Soul Heaven (Mono) early evening we arrive to find equipment in wrong place, much dismantling and rewiring later (cheers Joe M) and ensuring needles are not going to jump we are ready. Doyles top room is a small wooden floored venue with a capacity of around 100 though it has a side room and bar for any overspill, a feel good Dublin atmosphere awaits you (bar till 2am). After the recent success of the Paul Davis All-nighter featuring Carl Willingham (and most of these local players), an air of optimism is starting to creep into the small Dublin scene. To build the scene our policy to begin with is mainly Classics/Motown a revival night feel if you will. The crowd is a mix of youth and knowledgeable experience (though not as old as me) The place filled surprisingly early, first on was John Nowlen who launched us with the following; Joy Lovejoy-In orbit Billy Butler- My Heart is hurting Syl Johnson- Same kind of thing Vito&the Salutations- I'd best be going Radiants- Whole lot of woman Profiles- A little misunderstanding Al Greene- Dont leave me Azie Mortimer- You cant take it away Samuel Moore&TNT- I'm so jealous Johnny Bragg- Theyre talking about me Mamie Galore- Too many memories Flirtations- How can you tell me Chuck Jackson- Forget about me Steve Mancha- Your still in my heart 3 Degrees - Gotta draw the line Bobby Womack- Tried and convicted Precisions- Instant heartbreak Jackie Wilson- Try it againSteve Mancha- Hate yourself in the morning Velvelettes- These things will keep me loving you Temptations- Beautys only skin deep Marvin Gaye/Kim Weston- What good am I without you Carl Carlton- Why dont they leave us alone Tempests- Would you believe Occasions - Theres no you Karl Mitchell followed (where the **** is Pip), Karl is a long time keeping the flag fling in Dublin, whilst a passion for early R&B he is able to read the crowd and built the buzz with the following: ............. continued in the "read more" bit, just hit read more for even more of what went on and more playlists from John Dunne, Danny Dungan, Pip and Karl Mitchell Jodi Mathis - Dont you care anymore - Capitol Harvey Averne Dozen - Never learned to dance - Uptite The Sweet - Got to have more love - Smash The Artistics - The chase is on - Brunswick Barbara - Acklin - Just aint no love - Brunswick Bobby Womack - What is this - Minit The Flirtations - Natural born lover - Josie Billy Sha-Rae - In gone - Spectrum Cindy Scott - World of happiness - Virtue David Ruffin - You can come right back to me - Motown Lonnie Lester - You cant go - Nu-Tone Johnson Sisters - I found my place - Broadway Lou Johnson - Unsatisfied - Big Top The Miracles - If your mother only knew - Tamla Paris - Sleepless nights - Doc Deon Jackson - Ooh baby - Carla Debra - Whats it gonna be - Gree-Jack The Orlons - Envy - Cameo Rosco&Barbara - Could this be love - Old Town Jimmy Ruffin - Everybody needs love - Soul Martha&The Vandellas - Love guess who - Gordy Little Gigi - I volunteer - Decca Faye Crawford - So many lies - Rca Ruby Winters - Better - Diamond Young Pip is a relatively new recruit to NS but brings a lot of enthusiasm and a young fan base, finally got underway with: Parliaments - A new day begins Remarkables - Is the feeling still there TIm Rose - I got a loneliness The Performers - I cant stop you Brothers - Are You Ready For this Carlettes - Im Getting tired Barbara Mercer - Call on me The Sharpees - Tired of being lonely Soul SIsters - Think About The Good Times Howard Tate - Baby I love you WIllie Mitchell - The Champion Garnett Mimms - Look Away Barbara Dane - Im on my way Ronnie Love - Chills and Fevers Jimmy Robins - I cant please you Garnet Mimms - Prove It To Me Etta James - Seven Day Fool Younghearts - A little togetherness Benny Spellman - Fortuneteller Idle Few - People thats why Herbs - Never Never Jimmy Ruffin - Gonna give her all the love I got Danny Duggan followed with: John Bowie - Your Gonna Miss a good thing Del Larks - Job opening Ben E King - The Record Salvadores - Stick by me baby Turley Richards - I feel all right Contours - just a misunderstanding Isley Brothers - why when love is gone Four Tops - shake me wake me Jackie Wilson - ive lost you Laverne Baker - im the one to do it Terry Callier - look at me now Marvin Gaye - come get to this Mel Britt - She'll come running back Garland Green- Girl I love you Four Perfections - I'm not strong enough Spellbinders - help me Epitome of Sound - You Don't Love Me Larry Santos - You got me where you want me Majestics- I love her so much it hurts Four Tops - I got a feelin Ad Libs - New York in the Dark Gladys Knight&the Pips - Walk in my shoes Marlena Shaw - Wade in the water Jean Carn - Like one Fortson&Scott - Sweet Lover Garland Green- Angel Baby Finally John Dunne another Dublin stalwart manned the mike for the finale and lifted the crowd in his usual way. This guy is our hidden jewel, an eclectic mix included; Cookie Jackson: Do You Still Love Me (progress) Wade Flemons: Jeanette (Ramsel) Soul Bros Six: Ill Be Loving You (Atlantic) Bonnie Herman: Hush Dont Cry (Columbia) Sugar and The Spices : Have Faith In Me (Swan) Natural 4: I Thought You Were Mine (ABC) Valentines: Breakaway (SS7) Detroit Soul: All Of My Life (Music Town) Jackie Wilson: Higher and Higher (Brunswick) Wilson Pickett: Land Of 1000 Dances lots of oldies and Motown inc.

    As a soul fan, I am shocked at what I had sent to me this morning from a member of a soul/Belgian popcorn/ Hi-energy music message board called ANS. If it wasnt enough to stomach, that the majority of the DJ line up was dreary and the music was "old hat" real soul records are now being banned and considered "not good enough" for thier brand of Northern Soul. Gene toones, arguably, is probably the best record ever made. Read on, a true shocker : Gene Toones - What More Do You Want TOO EARTHY FOR THE ROCKET Bud Harper - Where Ever You Were TOO EARTHY FOR THE ROCKET The Martells - Where Can My Baby Be ELVIS PRESLEY SOUNDALIKE. WORSE THAN KURT HARRIS. A C Read - My Babys Been Cheating WAY TOO EARTHY FOR THE ROCKET I rest my case..... Ian Levine Moderator - Advanced Northern Soul List. This must be an horrendous wind-up

    Well more than likely read the reports on last Saturdays Soul Nite at Yorkshire Riders Halifax, with guests Guy H and Andy Dyson, almost can be sure its going to be a good quality nite of rare soul. Well thanks to Shirley for letting us use her words on the night, which makes a well entertaining read. Includes full playlists from Guy H , Andy Dyson, the three regulars Colin J, Alex J, Eddie E, and John Purvis. And thats not all, starting off with a bit of a viewpoint which am sure many promoters out there can identify with, and then moving onto the actual nite, a great write up by Shirley which to me gives great feel of the nite Not just a review more of an adventure ...and check out those playlists, defintely a outbreak of worthwhile quality rare soul all over the UK this weekend, who needs cheese when you can have cavair! Hit that read more to ......read more! YORKSHIRE RIDER 13TH April02 Warning - Get kettle on, this is a long one ;-))) This is a review of Saturdays soul night but if you can just indulge me for a sentence or two, Im just going to start off with a bit of a moan, about running a soul nite, and I guess any sort of soul venture in general. Do any promoters out there recognise any of this or is it just us making hard work of it:- You can put your heart&soul into organising a soul nite, but become so stressed sometimes, that you lose sight of why you were doing it in the first place. Well its been a bit like that with the Yorkshire Rider Club in Halifax. Over the last twelve months or so weve hit all sorts of problems, including low attendances, faulty in house sound systems, and moving venues to where we are based now. Truth is (and Im sure there are plenty of venue promoters who will vouch for this) it sometimes seemed like a lot of hard work for little or no reward - and Im not talking about monetary or status gain. We started this venture because we love soul music but we wanted to go to a soul night somewhere in our area that would play class northern soul music that we didnt hear often and the only way to do that was to run our own night, so from a selfish need grew a selfless task. Starting this enterprise has taken its toll on our financial and mental resources; weve hit low spots when we wondered why we were bothering at all, but weve always had the encouragement of a few loyal supporters of the venue who told us to stick with it; they said it just takes time to get a new venture off the ground. Well on Saturday night it finally felt like we turned the corner. (Moan over) Sometimes you just know when its going to be a good night and April 13th was just what Northern Soul is all about, it was a night when everything just fell into place, the crowd, the DJs, the music. Even the bar staff (who usually sit playing cards in the corner when weve had a less than successful night) commented on the tangible atmosphere created in the room that night.I knew the DJs guests and residents) would provide the music, but that doesnt always mean youre in for a good night.Ive been to venues where theyve had a cracking DJ line up, but the crowd just werent up for it, despite the good tunes coming from the turntables. It takes other elements to weave the sort of magic that creates a memorable night, and (this isnt as callow as it sounds) I knew the gods were smiling down on me when Karen hobbled in on a pair of crutches with her other half Kev, they had come over from Cheshire for their Saturday night soul fix but as they know I just lurve to dance and Karen obviously wouldnt be up to any backdrops that night they offered to run the door for me enabling me to get out on the dance floor and strut my funky stuff;-) Selfish I know but what can I say, the offer was made and I took it up ;-) In my defence, I did reciprocate by dancing to tunes Karen said she would have danced to in other circumstances, ok, ok I know I would have danced to them anyway ;-)) Thanks guys - it was much appreciated. Thanks to Chalky for trying to teach me gibberish or was it the other way round ;-) and to Mark for the lessons in hieroglyphics (Guy&Andys track listing) and also for acting as photographic director ;-) and to everyone who came from near and far to make it such a great night.

    Special mentions to: All the DJs for choosing so many fantastic tunes, and for noting them down so thoroughly on the play log so we could get through the whole night without any repetitions - and good call to Dawn and Keith for playing two different records both called "Dream Girl"! The PA suppliers who set up a fantastic system that overcame the problems we experienced in February and really let the music shine. The Camden Centres management who did so much behind the scenes to smooth what is a pretty complicated event to put on. Dawn, who kindly gave so much of her evening up to sort out problems that were none of her making (and even sacrificed some of her DJing time to do so). Janine (Soul Talker) and Sarah (non-Soul Talker) for help above&beyond the call at the end of the night. All the people who helped spread the word about the club And once again, everyone who came along to enjoy the sounds and made it all worth it! Here goes!
