Well done that Man For playing Dee Dee Warwick "You Tore My Wall Down" ! Dave

I thought you might, where's as Mick when I mentioned it to him this morning couldn't remember at all. We'll at least it reasuring to know that I'm not the one going senile ! Dave

I have a vague recollection of Mick Smith getting a unissued Gentlemen Four acetate off Soul Bowl circa late 80's it was about the same time that he got Martha Starr on Charay. Where it resides now who knows ? Dave

Sure is Chalky, it sounded great through a system when you played it (twice) at Lifeline the other week ! Mind you we've been getting a lot of traffic through the SJ website from the principality of Yorkshire, is this anything to do with you ? All we need now is that Red Rose lot the other side of te Pennines to losen up their purse strings too LOL ! Dave

Nice one Steve Many thanks for posting this up, the bloody things selling like hot cakes!!!!

O.K. Folks don't forget the Dee Dee Warwark is out today. Available from all th usual suspects or direct from the Soul Junction website: www.souljunctionrecords.co.uk I got a sneaky feeling this little ditty is gonna sell out pretty damm quick For those who have already purchased a copy many thanks for those who haven't watch you don't miss out on one of the best female northern/crossover dancers to be found for many a year. Dave Soul Junction

Just as a point of interest, I've got a unreleased alternative mix of "Keep On Climbing" on a 7" acetate which is slightly slower than the LP version but with a more heavier northern backing. Dave

Yes Steve, time does fly when your having fun. The last in the trilogy of unissued J.B tracks is out today with a lot of people commenting on how much better the sound quality is on " All Alone By The Telephone" than the U.A release. I've been listening to "Fellas, Don't Let The Girls Take Over" for over two years but again I didn't really appreciate how great it sound out until Chalky played it through a system at Lifeline. Available from all the usual vinyl stockists or direct from the Soul Junction website: www.souljunctionrecords.co.uk A tenner well spent me thinks Dave

As driven and Dj'ed in by Mark Houghton Dave

Or the previous winner didn't want to pay the postage at the full value perhaps ?

Hi Mal He was the lead singer of the Five Flight's Up who recorded for the T.A. and Oak labels. Check out his bio on the Soul Junction website: www.souljunctionrecords.co.uk Dave

Smart arse (sorry could resist that one) some did, some didn't and low and behold some even came up to the decks to find out what they was Dave

Hi Phil I too know a lot of people who have spent their whole teenage and adult life on this scene (over 50 years in some cases) who have never been away from albeit a fortnight's holiday in Spain who are totally bored shitless with hearing the same old tired sounds (top 500) and who are beginning to question their continued involvement with the scene. People who have the majority of the top 500 in their record collections, people who have grown with the music who can appeciate and collect black soul music of all tempo's and styles from the 60's through to the present. As the old adage goes 'Variety is the spice of life' but unfortunately if you can only appreciate 100mph stompers then your taste becomes somewhat limited, but as you say that is your perogative which I don't really have a problem with,each to their own. Both the northern and modern/crossover scenes used to be driven by the discovery and playing of new music (some tracks stood the test of time, some didn't), you take this factor out of the equation and what you are left with is a stagnet scene. Ring any bells ? Dave

Beg pardon Len But from that list I gave you I played Joyce Elaine Yuille and Dee De Warwick at a allnighter on Saturday night. Dave

Here you Len Try tuning into some of these show to hear some of the newer soul output: Mick O'Donnelly's Soul Discovery Show (Solar Radio) Mark Merry's Soul Sermon Mix Up (Starpoint Radio) Steve Guarnori's Soul Time Show (Solar Radio) Dave Thorley's Crossing The Tracks Show Plus Laurence from Soul Brother Records does a Sunday morning show on solar which highlights all the new vinyl and cd releases. Plus a shed load of other radio shows which can all be found in the Soul Media section on Soul Source. You ain't gonna like everything you hear but if you can pick up on a couple of tracks per show then all the better. Dave

Dee Dee Warwick soon to be available on vinyl very soon Dave

O.K Len Go and find (goole) these these out: Joyce Elaine Yuille "Just Say Goodbye" Victor Hayes "Picking Myself Up" Natural Resources "If There Were No You" E.R.I.C Life's A Mess Dee Dee Warwick "You Tore My Wall Down" All currently or soon to be available at a very affordable price. ATB Dave

Not wishing to be pedantic, but would that be rings or chunks Rod ? Dave

Simple answer my friend, don't accept a DJ booking in Lancashire, a proper discerning DJ would be selective where he or she plies their trade while a 15 minutes of fame player of records would a accept a booking in Syria at the ISIS Christmas party just to DJ, and pay their own airfare although he or she would most likely only need a one way ticket. Dave

I've been following this thread for a few days now with feelings of both amusement and disbelief ! So inkeeping with the title of the thread here's a couple of point's I'd like to raise: When did the scene's demise become the DJ's fault ? For a proper DJ (and not a crowd pleasing player of records) to break a new unknown record he needs to have a receptive and intelligent audience to appreciate the fact ! being behind the wheels of steel can be a very frustrating, intimidating and unenjoyable experience when coming under attack from a bunch of Willie Mitchell's "THe Champion" requesting got into northern via a recent BBC documentary maniac's, therefore why DJ's bother to put themselves in such a uncomfortable situation. Secondly the claim that no new records are turning up ? well there is, but because of the recent trend of if it ain't a 100 mph stomper it's no good anything midtempo and soulful gets largely ignored. A lot of previously unissued material is being released by several bona fide record labels worldwide which again is getting largely ignored because its only a tenner or because it's deemed a new record and DJ's are scared of being accused of not playing original vinyl. There's a whole world of great soul music out there if your open minded enough to got out there and find it, too much living in the past ain't healthy. Dave
