  1. One of my all time favourite 100 club monsters............fantastic record & never tire of hearing it..........tunes like this make the 100 Club the no1 Nighter. Russ

    Its always a shame when venues close, but I think we're at saturation point............I would personally prefer less venues with more people at the ones that survive..........my musical tastes aside, surely busier venues would create a better atmosphere. I am chomping at the bit to get back into the promoting game, but within an hour of me, there are several venues already, whilst I beleive that I could add something to the mix, I definitley dont want to split the small crowd further, you could also argue that my music policy probably wouldnt attract the vast majority of locals, I also would prefer to promote a more intimate venue, where the DJ's can play a more eclectic & diverse selection of soul music, to a smaller but 'up for it' crowd, but until the current bubble bursts Im gonna hold tight I think ...........Im in this for the long haul & eventually it will be the right time, I'll find the right venue, then maybe I can risk my shirt again in an attempt to provide something at least slightly different. Russ
  3. Love it as a dance record, but agree with Sean, far better releases on Hi soulfully.............got my WD at the right time, but was wondering if there is a price difference between the stock & WD ?????????? Russ
  4. That would be about right Tony . Russ
  5. My copy is the same as you describe Gray...........also from Canada........just wondered about the reissues ??????????? Russ
  6. Live the life.............. wax,drugs n Northern Soul............dont do every single week, but 100% commited to the cause, I have a family, a job & a vinyl habit, its bloody hard to juggle it all, but its all a matter of how dedicated you are.................. have to agree its gotta be Allnight...........do soul nights too, but aint nothing like a Nighter, the travelling is all part of it, our nearest nighter is 2 hours away, the journey is part of the crack, as is messy Sundays/Mondays............you just deal with it, not knocking anyone at all for what they prefer now theyre past it ( )............but Nighters are the real deal, its what its all about..................always has been, always will be.................sometimes 'real life' gets in the way, but I dont make excuses....................missed the last 100 Club cos of work & might as well of gone as I spent ALL night walking the house wondering what I was missing............I live my blank weekends thru the Italian Stallion & Disco Dave Russ
  7. Dave whats the crack with the yellow copies mate ????????????? Russ

    Top tune Nik.............would love to hear this booming out at Rubyzzzzzzzzzzzz . Russ
  9. This is the version Saus used to play at Wilton & else where & the version that really made me aware of the tune, strange that was 10 years ago maybe.......................Dave Thorley plays it now & I still love it.............thanks Saus. Russ
  10. e name='Kev Moore' date='Oct 27 08, 06:06 PM' post='908630'] ..............still gutted about 100 Club tho'. Russ
  11. I use the Daptone one & its ok, but like John has mentioned you need a couple of rigid mailer cards in either end, I usually use it for sales or when doing Modern gigs & only need a small amount of 45's, good for the price tho', altho keep in mind the exchange rate aint too good right now. Russ
  12. Big play for me at Rubyz Nik............top tune IMO & was huge for me at Abshott & Newbury too, altho' I tended to play TT then. Russ
  13. I would have been looking forward to hearing The Delites, Lester Tipton, New Wanderers, The Agents, Vickie Baines all newies for Searling at the time & seriously doin the biz for me..............hadnt quite made the difference between 6ts n 7ts either, they were all great records & I was blissfully unaware of any divide, I just wanted to dance................I was also hitting M's after RS set & getting my pre Wigan education too, altho' at the time I didnt realise this...........it was just another exciting weekend of soul. Russ
  14. I said Spyder Turner too, but also think Jackey Beavers would tear the roof of the sucker............Margie Joseph ???.....agree with Tony about the Jyve Five too...........is Nella Dodds still singing ????????????........I lived very near to her & found her place of work, which was literally within 5 miles of my house, as you know ND is not her real name & I actually thought ,No Im not going to Bother Her',...............bugger !!!!!!. Russ
  15. Unfortunately mate Howard Tate is in a wheel chair & has been in a care home for awhile now. Russ
  16. Holy guacamole..................now that would be a performance. Russ
  17. Cheers Kev Best Russ
  18. Ya know what Chris, the few times I've missed the 100 Club when Im in blighty I actually end up pacing up & down ALL night, doing exactly that ........& then totally miss the point of why I actually decided not to go in the first place !!!!!!!!!!!!. Russ
  19. Kev.............already had that conversation with myself mate...........'yeah, I'll go & leave early n go straight '......it'll never happen, I'll walk down those stairs & lose myself in soul heaven & before you know it, it'll be 11 am on Sunday & I'll be sat in Maccie D's talking bollox to a complete stranger, cos any half sane person will have slinked away un noticed as I burble about my great night uncomprehensively into my skinny, non fat, double expresso something or other...............remember our quiet first night in Spain...........hiking into the dawn sunshine at 6am looking for fags & talking utter rubbish........... .............happy day's buddy..... What was that GC Cameron track BTW been driving me nuts trying to remember............. Best Russ
  20. Been out every Saturday for weeks n weeks now...........new job, big meeting Monday morning, doing the right thing & stopping in, even tho' its the 100 Club, f***ing gutted.........still time to get changed & go if I hammer it down the motorway.......... . Bloody x factor too, its enough to make you weep really, keep telling myself its only one nighter............... Sad, sad Russ
  21. Just thought of another: Ralph Soul Jackson...............wow. Russ
  22. ............got to agree Pete.......see you next week. Russ
