Why did you leave him Negative feedback on Ebay then ?

Just been re-activated, new series of Cds has just been released.

Hmm, don't seem to remember you offering free advertising to people on the Soul scene when you started.

Dan, Don't ever get a job that involves you doing any work because you wouldn't have time for the hilarious posts you've put on this thread. keep it up.

I've read somwhere that the Brooks Brothers were actually Richard and Arthur Brooks who used to be in The Impressions. No idea if it's correct though.

Discographies for the five different Magnetics groups, and the Masqueraders can be found using the links below. The Magnetics The Masqueraders Having said that I've got a load of updates for the Masqueraders that someone has sent me and I need to go through their discog and compare it to mine. If there are any differences I'll post the updated one later tonight. HTH

Did you not get the MP3 I sent you of Athens Rogues ?

and me please dave@soulfulkindamusic.net

Ignore me, just realised if you click on the name of the last poster it takes you to the last unread post.

Hi Mike, The link on the right hand side which showed the 'last post' seems to have disappeared. I always found this link essential on the longer topic because when you are logged in it took you to the last unread post.

Awesome in it's simplicity, I love it

What is "Jctn 9 and Goodyears type music" ? Personally I thought they were both Soul nights, not everything they play is to my choice, that's why I probably only attend them two or three times a year, but there again, not everything played at the Station is to my choice either. By the way, I'm the guest DJ at Goodyears on April 15th, hope to see you there, I'll pass your comments about "a good social night and a piss up till 2am" on whilst I'm there if you want.

That's because I play two and a half minute slices of perfection, and you play six minute long rambling 12"s

That's perfectly true. Last night there was someone in the room who had requested Syng McGowan during one of my previous spots. Sure enough, he came and requested it this time, and as chance would have it.......there it was already cued up on the deck ready to be played next. It's good to be good I'll always play requests if I've got the record with me, but why do some people always wait until you've got ten minutes left of the spot to come and ask for a request ? Brings me onto a lovely Derek Allen story. Someone had been pestering Chris Anderton for a request, I can't even remember what it was, but it was one of the horrendously overplayed Oldies that make most people groan. It might have even been 'Right Track'. Chris didn't have the record, but kindly told the person that the next DJ would play it for them. As he finished his spot he told me, laughing all the time what he'd set me up for. Sure enough, three records in, up came the guy with his request. I didn't have the record either, so being the kind hearted soul that I am said almost exactly the same as Chris...The next DJ will play it for you. Derek Allen was next to DJ. I gleefully told him how Chris had stitched me up, and then mentioned I'd done the same to him. I can still picture Derek's face, and see the look of anguish on his face. He managed to play one record before the guy came up again. Third record in, Derek played the request, and danced behind the decks to the record. I know he didn't want to play it, but he had it with him, someone who had paid to get in asked for it, so he played it. That's just one of the things which made Derek such a nice guy. Oh yeah ! the dancefloor was rammed when he played it

Good idea, it's been ages since I put a playlist up. Here's what I played last night at The Windsor in Birmingham. Two half hour spots.
