John Peel's unknown soul record from 1975?
tony Blackburn always seems to get stick and was for a long time the butt of many light entertainment jokes, so peel wasn't alone.

Arena - American Epic. 3 Part documentary
Obviously not, but the treatment the BBC have recently given to black music is piss poor. I have really bee so disappointed with the Beeb, it seems like all the decent music Tvee is now on sky. hopefully this should do something to redress the balance.

Arena - American Epic. 3 Part documentary
is this BBC?, if so I'm expecting the usual derivative shite that airbrushes history, to enhance the narrative. No celebrity presenter?? wtf? thought that was illegal nowadays? For Christ sake the public demand a drivelling imbelcile that knows sweet FA about the subject but has been to performing / journo school!

Is there an appetite for something different?
I'll quote the mighty mace in response to this; "loads of them want to hear something different, as long as they're playing it".

Is there an appetite for something different?
there is I'm pleased to say, an albeit fledgling, resistance movement, a scene within a scene. A small but loyal crowd that still travel to hear something fresh, something different.; Burnley, rugby, soul function, go go children, spirit, empty bottles, different strokes and many others offer an alternative. I always live in hope for the true ethics of the scene, after all U2 and REM were once considered alternative music, and went onto become 2 of the biggest bands in rock history.

don't think there's been any djs under 30 that have broken into the mainstream and have introduced new tunes that have been taken up at multiple venues. Now THAT is what the scene really needs!

Being under 30 seems to have worked for quite a few in recent years, not going to name the obvious name but a certain capitol venue has always seemed to want somebody to appeal to the younger market. Nothing wrong in that of course, but I have seen some resentment on FB from guys who been paying their dues for a little while longer.

M People - How Can I Love You More
if I remember correctly it was issued a few times before it became a pop hit, although it was big in dance clubs well before that. best original song they ever did, (there cover of someday was the best) hard to imagine now everyone got so pissed of with hearing heather's voice by the end of the 9ts.

John Peel's unknown soul record from 1975?
haven't a clue, but its really unusual and I really like it. Sounds like indie release and it's surely called October. Be great to find out who it's by Q

THE STRANGELOVES - NIGHT TIME IS THE RIGHT TIME
bout as black as the antartic, a certified piece of shite if I ever heard one, yeah its white garage but that's not the problem its just poppy and twee and has that certain something that will appeal to BTB's (baggy trousered bastards) which means it wont appeal to me or anyone with an once of soulful taste or interest in black music, just imho.

Video: Gucci Does Northern Soul
Dont recall Jazzy B saying we were racist, just mainly white, I believe it was more to do with the scene being made up largely of suburbanites. There was 2 black kids in my town when I was growing up,
