I've wanted to use ' dancing on northern soul's grave' on flyers over the last few years😁

But you wouldn't find a record like the mello souls on a major label or the del larks for that matter. There's nothing commercial about it, I'm unsure of what market it was aimed at, a happy accident by made by some kids. That raw sound that's still sophisticated it's truly a rare quantity in the genre.

Huge hall Leighton? I went in 88' thought it was in a small club?

Well it's certainly nowt to do with quality in this case. 😂

I think I remember, tim saying he was with butch when it was found on a trip to the states early 80's

I paid £59 more for an excellent orig on here at Xmas!

I'd like to add that this practice doesn't work without discretion, well know classics are to be avoided IMHO, it's a technique that works best with less familiar titles. I appreciate peoples more purist perspective and it's not something I ever do listening to albums at home but playing out is a different matter.

Alternatively a dull baritone could sound a pleasant.

Aye up all, insomnia has given me time to pose this question; what was the first venue or and recording to use additional pitch to enhance a tune. I know many will deplore the tactic but personally my slider is seldom at zero😁. I've even been known to pitch down.

Well done youth! Looks gorgeous

Got into a discussion about Patti and the emblem's in Congress, ted had one in the past, but very rare indeed.

On a tangent but simply interested, were there any rare tunes that were exclusive to Yate, Cleethorpes or the Mecca?

When actually, your right, important but not in the same league really, at least, not collin. 😂

In terms of promoting an underground dance scene, mixing records ect. Obviously they didn't get into production in the same way but non the less both the British dj's along with George power, froggy ect were doing very similar things to new York and Chicago, at that time, musically without the fanfare.

Good point kev, 20th century dj's been done to death, mind you some, like Butch, are just as relevant as ever. Best I've heard this century, I'd add Tom McGrath, Sean Haydon, Dean Read and Johnny Weston after that set last weekend

Obviously Gary liniker is the best football player the UK has produced, and he just doesn't get the credit. 😂

Colin's contribution goes way beyond the soul spectrum along with Greg Wilson the part they played, in terms of dance music, is equal to that of Larry levan and Frankie Knuckles.

Thanks very much, highly informative

Just wondering why so many demo's were single sided, with a mono/ stereo mix?
