How Long Will N.soul Last
Personally I believe there seems to be a whole generation of 40 somethings that aint on the scene at the mo for family or other reasons, who were into in the 8ts and 9ts, so I feel that at some piont in the future many will return once more to relive there youth. I was also suppried to see many younger faces @ the last kings hall nighter, but would be even more impressed to see some fresh faces @ the, lets say, more cutting edge nighters and soul nights.

The Sound Of Keele
- The Sound Of Keele
A few more that sat @ Bidds reminded me of, I'm sure that neither were first played @ Keele but they will always be associated with the place for me. Wilson Picket- Let me be your boy (played @ Bidds) Freddie Houston- Soft Walking (purchased @ Bidds)- The Sound Of Keele
Keel may have not been breaking tunes to fans that had been on the scene for 20 years or more - but I guarantee you that this 20 year old was hearing plenty of new and exiting things every time I attended !!!! . Thats exacxtly where I'm coming from, and judging by the age of a lot of atendees to the last King hall, some punters who first atended keele nighters are are returning!- The Sound Of Keele
fair point mate, I got into nighters around 87, so I just seemed to me that these tunes were associated with this place having missed out on late wigan and even Stafford, but I think its fair to say that these were absolutly hammered @ keele, like 3 time a night! I know these were played previously on the scene but to many on the scene who were teens or early 20's then, I think they'll be eternallly associated with that venue.- The Sound Of Keele
With this lonstanding venue not with us anymore I thought it might be nice to reflect on the sounds that were big here in its halcyon days, (mid 8ts- early 9ts). There's been loads of stuff on here about the holy trinity of 70's venues, but at the time this was probably, along with the 100 club, the most signifigant venue from this underlooked era of the scene. OK I know it was know as primarly an oldies allnighter but the reactivations and revivals are still of interest, as well as the breaking nighter sounds. To start us off here are a couple I certainly remember being massive when the venue first started, Doug Banks- I just kept on dancing Howard Guyton - Iwatched you slowly slip away Imaginations- strange neighbourhood. - The Sound Of Keele
