WOW,WOW,WOW Ashton Ukrainian club hit the ground running into the new year!! Amazing response once again and some more new attendees as the word for this great club spreads nationwide, to consider one of our regulars Kevin Kent travels all the way from Gillingham on a regular basis, high praise indeed!! Nearly every table was taken before 7.30pm!! Phil Dunn played a great opening set, mixing some R+B flavors mixed in with some great forgotten oldies!! Next up Dolly, who I believe was extremely nervous for her debut set, well the first record and a full dance floor put that to the sword, a really great and varied set!! Pete Hollander followed with a really cultured and well structured set mixing Motown faves, 70s and some blinding mid tempo, take a bow sir and a welcome return behind the decks!! John Hillel played some monster rare soul sides and some classy crossover/70s Mixed Feelings "sha la la" hit the spot for me personally!! Kieron Taz Robathan rocked da house mixing in classic rare soul like John Wesley and Calvin Grayson, mixed in with some Funky Edge bangers, monumental set mate, many thanks!! Finishing the night in fine style Chris Churm AKA The Churminator lol, full dance floor to the strains of the last record Mr Golden Voice Roy Hamilton "the panic is on" sent the dancers into "soul heaven" a rousing round of applause and rightly so!! It was great to catch up with old friends, Lowton mainstay Paul Baldwin, Tsop Manchester Gis Southworth (who promised to tell me the origins of that name) Ted Massey was back in the building, great to see you mate,Derek Pearson, Big Mick,Gibby Gibby,Debbie Troops,Debbie Carty and so many more.
