Well Done Kent Records.(Ady Croasdell )
Any chance of someone posting a scan of the article up here? I have quite a few of the Kent LPs from back in the day, not only a perfect introduction to obscure tunes on a good themed basis but also the only way to own some of the big unissued tunes of the time, It's Torture for instance.

I remember when I used to stay with Flynny when he was resident @ the dome he had one in his box, and do remember him dropping in at least one set too.

Terry Callier - Rip
Passing of a true legend. I only ever saw him from a distance at Glastonbury in 1998, but his time piece album is always one of the first I put on the decks when having a vinyl session at home. Terrible shame.

Harvey Averne Dozen I Never Learned To Dance
If you only want it for your Ipod as you can't get a copy on original format, then you can get it from Itunes or amazon for 79p.

Modern Soul Cd Swap
I used to have a copy of real player. that would crossfade on burning a CD. I used that a lot in previous swaps, gave the CD a polished feel. but since i got a new PC just been using ITunes, which is rubbish for that, should be in the basic version by now.

Forgotten Past
I've been across the board since the year dot. Started at Yate then through Stafford etc and beyond I was a semi known Modern DJ but still buy anything that i like and is affordable Recently bought some 60's things i liked from back in the day, Arabia by the Delcos, the two unissued September Jones tracks that Mr Flynn used to play, through to some 12" recent tunes that i have heard by word of mouth. Actually just got the new CD from Angela Johnson, absolutely love it!!! But can't say i like to go anywhere that is limited, like modern/crossover only, or oldies etc. I want a bit of everything. I do pull out my old LPs and tunes from time to time and sometimes revel in the classiness of it all, and sometimes think what the fcuk is that!!! So in answer to the above.......Yes.

Twisted Wheel
I remember one night playing human pinball with Chris from Bedford, bouncing off the walls all the way down the windey corridoor between rooms. Alway a swaety night there. I think that on one night there was a huge undergroud room open that was where the original Wheel nighters were held, or so Brian Rae told me, would have believed anything the state i got into. Fantastic trips up with the other Mark Form Gloucester

Chino Feaster On Strakers
Very James Brown sounding production. no faster than combinations but much funkier. Need to hear it out loud in a set to see how it comes across. Liked it though.
