Spot on, it is out of the bottle but a cultural change is possible and it starts with conversations like this.

I don't know why they need to, most post their playlist, seconds after their set is finished 😂

Totally agree Paul, this is wrong! Not the way to treat a member who has done nothing wrong

I've played 'down in the ghetto ', heard it played out a few times lately too.

I love propositions like that, nu- groove was a new York label, but I love the idea. I know both tracks very well, GTO was ace at the time a regular play @ Shelly's. The club you mentioned was the night club used in Saturday night fever, wasn't it?

The Gathering @ the Basement, Hanley
Right people, the reserved places list is now closed. We do have some capacity on the night on a first come first served basis only. There is likely to be a cue again on opening, if your not in it, your not likely to get in. Be early, or already on the list, or you may well not get in.

Seriously not intending to bump, but the Travelers list has gone a bit ballistic! Not too far from capacity from that alone, and we're certain of many coming, who are not on it. Please be early or on the list. We just don't want anyone to be disappointed.

Personally, I'd like to ban phone use altogether. Doesn't have to be Draconian, a few signs and info on flyers ect. We won't be the first https://mixmag.net/read/fabric-london-bans-photography-video-phones-news

Northern Soul t-shirts
Your spot on, Paul, Im really sadly ashamed to admit I'm into northern nowadays, to anyone off the scene. It's associated with; a specific set of records, a costume and current culture that means little to me. That 'way of life', now seems to involve a flask of tea and sandwiches, dancing to same music week in week out at a host of local nights, with occasionally outings to the kings or crackpool.

As I said, where these quality nighters? I wouldn't knock the 100 club but 'rhythm and soul', its has never been about big nighter records, has it?- Co72/23 Annual Fundraising Event

Despite hating playlists here goes, pulled at random from me box, could of listed 100 tbh. Bit of a mix but with an eye on a prospective dance- flu-er. Benny latimore- I got news for you Helen curry - I want you, I need you Johnny Newbag- got to get you back (another tim spun the other week) Frankie coe- get it jerk Keanya Collins - it ain't no secret Johnny sayles- anything for you Barbara and the browns- you don't love me Sir mack rice- it's alright Ov wright - ace of spades Taste of grey- for once in my life Or you can have slowly molding for the millionth time!- Open your ears and your minds
Tim A played a great okeh track, think it was Ernie Lucas? And while we're in okeh for starters, how about this https://youtu.be/7Z35by1NWXA?si=GqQGos7VyaaPRYhF- Open your ears and your minds
Not surprising nobody is ready to post a list of underplayed cheap tunes, far to many here that would scoff and sneer. It's the 'I've got better tunes than that' attitude, 'I must have I paid a lot of money for them'😂. I take the point to a certain extent, conventional northern that's good always command a premium. It's The odd ball, left field and just plain weird stuff I love tbh, a occasionally these you can find.- Open your ears and your minds
Tim set at FTMNTC last week was ace, littered with great underplayed, available records.- Wigan Casino’s 50. A pilgrimage you won't regret.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂- Open your ears and your minds
They aren't played because, as chalky intonates ego's get in the way. why play a cheap record when you can show off and play what you spent £3k on last month. That's the default setting for most.- Wigan Casino’s 50. A pilgrimage you won't regret.
I just ignore this crap tbh, switched radio four off this morning, when a feature on it came on. You know exactly what they'll say and who'll say it. You have your official spokespersons of the scene and sometimes the junior official or youth spokesperson. It say more about the quality of journalism since the invention of the net than anything else, every subject matter is dealt with in a patronising way.- Wigan Casino’s 50.
