    as no one mentioned the lesuire dome/ jollees, that was a nighter venue in the mid to late 8ts.
  2. Geeselad
    they did a few nighters there as well, lightwood lane? think it was neil and jackie clowes running it, okeh promotions, I just remember that fecking awful frank wilson istrumental filling the floor.

    suits, harvey's collection. anyone watching this excellent, imho, new us show on Dave? Clocked harvery's Lp collection, around 5K of albums adourne his office, I havent seen every single minute of the opening episodes but has he referered to it? The show has featured a few soul/ r and b cuts in the background and I thought I spyed a number of black folk on the covers. what's he collect, jazz? Rand B? soul or funk?

    James brown goes on about using reverse acetate's that were cut to prevent copying, anyone ever hear of this practice?
  5. Geeselad
    Chicago's Trax studios used 1000's of unsold Sargent Pepper to cut house 12's in the 8ts, Rocky jones openly admits this, though he did say 'he didnt use old sneakers' as often claimed.

    This is such crap, is this to claw back what they lost on the Radnap case yesterday! How many Mills spent to get the Tax on a few hundred thou!
  7. Geeselad
    It was still a decent place to get clothes from when I was in my late teans a mere 25 years ago!

    think I missed one delight to go to pickering's night at the Hac, the night someone set into the doormen with an axe, I kid you not! Twas the first time he played Whitney v's leftfiled, me mate's were going mental about it and i had to wait a whole week to hear it! I was gutted!

    the music shop was chatfields wasnt it? and is the clothes shop chawners Jez, cause I was just a bairn back then, LOL.
  10. Geeselad
    I went to that, with the northern night downstairs, think it was boxing night 1990, I lost it big time though! LOL, Seem to remember Njoi did a PA with Sasha DJing.
  11. Geeselad
    I'd add freetown and left bank to the list, think Johnny B and duncan did soul nights there, and what about the Bear in Castle youth! Jez mentioned a club in stoke from the early 7ts, anyone?
  12. Geeselad
    I'm on the podium wearing a bobble hat and oakley shades, at night!
  13. Geeselad
    The Eclipse night were bleedin awful all the grooverider sh**e! bangin techno, Delight was where it were at if you had any soul left in yer!
  14. Geeselad
    From August 90 till may 91, Delite was THE biggest club night bar none in the north west ( the hac was busy applying for a new licience!) and certainly one of the most influentail of all the early rave clubs. Sasha was the man, but Dave Seaman, Laurent Garnier and Golden's Pete Bromly supported the wax spinning. Music was a mix of Chicago house, Italo and european piano house Anthems, Contrary to what many think of as early rave tunes the tempo was often slow and the vibe mellow man, musta been the Doves, LOL.

    When I was a kid, on the estate where I grew up, if you only knew one NS tune it would of undoubtably be 'Skiing in the snow.' If was massive on the scene @ the torch or not,it certainly had an impact in youth clubs and the like with generation to young to go to nighters.
  16. Geeselad
    THERE'S TWO ISSUE'S OF THIS, ONE WITH A LONGER INTRO AND IS SLIGHTLY MORE TO BUY i BELIEVE.
  17. Geeselad
    I did say generally Steve, I know you could buy gerneric badges for the NS scene, like soul- lancashire or soul- on trent ect, but could you purchase actual anni badges over the counter?
  18. Geeselad
    tis but relish on the burger, not the meat itself, it has to be said!
  19. Geeselad
    think one of the nice elements about them is they generally had to be earnt, by literally 'keeping the faith' rather than just bought over the counter, bring back patches! seriously I'm sure you could boost attendances to nighter with these things, there so hard to come by now. some young kid around 19, who'd traveled from cornwall, was fascinated by my addididas holdall and badges at the king's a couple of years back, and I dont even have any good ones on it!
  20. Geeselad
    again there part of the heritage of the scene, and for me a nice bit! dont have any origianl wigan badge's but have keep my old ones from anniversaries in the 8ts, keele ect, shame nobody doea them nowadays.,
  21. Geeselad
    will ytou have some tommorow at different strokes steve?
  22. Geeselad
    I started a thread on this a while back, I must of been really out of it when I saw an original 6ts issue @ keele in the 80's as I'm enthatically told it doesnt exist, but there still a bit of me that says I saw it in a box!
  23. Geeselad
    moved to london in '87 and attended rare groove night at the wag and various west end venues, along with allnighters and events on the NS scene, as an uneducated young soul boy, my perceptions of rare groove at the time were of obvious tunes such as the 'jackson sisters' and 'voices of east harlem'- 'wanted dead or alive', also the 'vibrettes' 'humpty dump', the general impression was of records that had the funkyness and feel of tunes on hot wax and invictus.
  24. Geeselad
    its not really that healthy is it when collecting gets like that!
  25. Geeselad
    mandrill's peace and love LP. very varried, a real melting pot of styles.
