THE 2010 TORCH REUNION THE RYAN HALL TUNSTALL STOKE ON TRENT SATURDAY OCT 23rd

Very very good work PD very good indeed

great memories John. It always seemed like military exercise in those days--Every Saturday jump a train to Manc Picadilly and spend all day record hunting in Ralphs and Spin in and anywhere else where there might be a 'sniff' of soul lol--wasn't there an outdoor market(as well as the indoor market) where there were stalls and stalls of 45's(possibly towrds Strangeways end?)--not all soul but the occasinal gem on British could be unearthed Hitch a lift home calling in at various shops en route---Lekkermans in levenshulme? did a cracking range of Ben shermans and harringtons for free...... Oh and nearly forgot --a local shop to us was Bewes in Burslem where Mr Minshull was selling the wares. Breeden and Middletons in Crewe as well?? ...and another Cath Jones's in Sandbach----many a happy afternoon skiving school and digging around in there in the late 60's

Well you did pinch his milk bottles of his step on a Sunday morning----bit of a bummer really, considering he was wanting to make a welcoming brew of tea for Mrs Shadrock on her return from the 12 hr night shift down on the coal face at Silverdale Collery

Just a long shot this. I was wondering if anyone had a knackered unplayable copy of Dr Love to donate for charity as part of the 2010 Torch reunion. It would be used as a prize on the day-----long story--- but we would be most grateful if any kind 'soul' has one battered copy that is of no use to them and would consider donating it many thanks for this regards Jez

oh there'll be loads of stories. you will be made very very welcome at the Reunion and we hope you enjoy it. It should give you a little snap shot of the passion, the people, the DJ's that made our little soul club in Tunstall so special and yer dad was a very special part of the whole thing see you and yer bruv on the day

Haha I was too slow there. Yeah Pat look forward to hearing out mate in October

Fcuk me that's a great bit of nostalgia for folks of a certain age and persuasion. mmmmm wouldn't it be great to hear Alan spin it again in October. ...got me thinking now

keeping it to 5 Booby Jones---Your Good Lovin (Silver) Spinners---She's gonna love me at sundown (VIP) De vons----Someone to Treat me Nice (KIng) Capitols--Aint that Terrible (Karen) Colette Kelly---City of Fools (Volt) ....Oh and a Tamla Motown presents The Isley brothers lp (Mfp) .....I reckon someone will relieve me of some money tonight --to start off the next five

....Probably summat do with Dogshit Dave

Yep https://www.sense.org.uk/ is certainly a worthy cause and we will be delighted to add this to the existing 3 charities. great stuff:thumbsup:

Thats bloody brilliant Dave--nice one mate:thumbsup:

nice one ----Peterborough's Poet Laureate:D

...well no I wasn't aware Malc:ohmy: Blimey learn summat new every day. Bet there parents were proud-- 2 of the pioneers of the DJ world in the early days. ....and at least one of 'em was a hit wiv the laydeez:rolleyes:

...and also played at the same time by 70's club DJ Ray Teret at the Place in Hanley. Ray was quite adept at stringing together a half decent set considering the disco environment that prevailed. Mr Melvin's does it for me though

Wow excuse me while I salivate:D Aint seen one of them for years. Nice one. Not an expert but I think I seen an issue some time back for about £45 that was VG+..........................goodness knows what price a green 'un:rolleyes:
