It was a fantastic night Alan

The Contacts - You Gonna Pay - Quadran 40001
Really? This record has been played as long as I have been going to nighters and you can bet it was around long before that. Great tune!

Old Clubs In The Wigan Area
The Wigan area will have even less venues soon as they are closing at least five in the Borough by early next year. Monaco Ballroom and Lowton to name just two.

How did you not know it was Shotts then?

I think you will find they are one in the same Webby. I take it you never went?

Do Soul People Like Live Bands ?
The Fabulous Peps being one of them I love live acts! I must to admit to having butterflies and feeling a little sick before they come on just in case they aren't up to the job any more. I don't understand why people begrudge one hour out of a night to watch an act. It means the world to these artists to perform in front a crowd that truly 'gets' and appreciates what they were trying to achieve back then. Without them we would not have this wonderful music or scene. I think they deserve some respect and recognition. But that's just me.

Northern Soul On The Panther Label
It is Reggie Saddler Combo - Hear My Song. Absolutely fantastic tune. Just a little too fast for these legs. Ok - a lot too fast

Bishops Wood Cancelled & Closure
What a shame. We only discovered this little gem of an allnighter recently but it was a cracker. Pity there isn't one more. It would have been good for it to go out on a real high.

Cover Ups
I was just thinking this morning about the first time I heard Butch DJ. I was still living at home so I would have been about 20 or so. I wrote down in my little notebook the Del Larks, G. Davis/R. Tyler and the Just Brothers. Happy days.

- Could You Play?
"I'm going to play it till you dance". Brilliant!- Could You Play?
Aaahhhh.. got you!- Could You Play?
Can I ask - would you follow a DJ and play something they had just played?- Could You Play?
Dave surely you can't say I don't go out to have fun? How can you call choosing to not play something that has already been played a rule? I would not go on after you and play stuff that you had played. Why? Not because that is 'the rule' as you put it but just because it had already been played and therefore I would play something else. Nothing sinister. Nothing to do with rules. Just that it had already been played.- Could You Play?
Yes but those records were 'new' Dave. Plus they were usually played in the same set by the same DJ! Chances are the record that was asked for was not. For what its worth I would not play a record if it had already been played. Maybe the topic starter should wait and ask one of the later DJs to play it next time. Chances are they would not have been there to hear the early spots- Record Prices - Has The World Gone Mad?
I didn't see you complaining when you were selling your records Phil- North O The Borders Input Over The Years
I could never forget Scotland Andy! Without doubt some of the best nights I have ever had on this scene were with you guys. If I had the chance to relive one allnighter again - without doubt it would be Shotts!- Mello Souls
It would bother me and I am just a punter! You would be bang out of order for playing it! Not sure if that would bother you though. Kitch also has a copy.- Mello Souls
What do you consider your acetate of Mello Souls to be? With Ernestine Eady on the other side I would say it is as far from an original acetate as you can get.- Bad Experience Buying A Tune (Now Resolved)
Only resolved because you posted on here. I very much doubt he would have had a change of heart on his own. Glad you are getting the record though- Louis Paul

Wow. He had your money for a week before turning round and saying he was selling it to someone else? That is truly shameful.- 100 Club To Close By Xmas
This is sad but so true and not only evident in London but all over. This country has no shame. - Could You Play?
