Very talented man our Ray...Princes touring band & member of Tony, Toni, Tone amongst many accolades too numerous to mention...I bought the box set when it was released & it want cheap then...but its pretty cool.. Best Russ

Agreed Kev, but a place very dear to my heart so couldn't help bearing my soul.. Russ

Arguably the best Rare Soul club on the planet, past, present & into the future very few places can come any where near it....it is f*ckin legendary...some of the negative comments are laughable, anyone who attends regularly knows the real deal & where its really 'at'...I'm very disappointed with the attitude of some people on here, people who I thought would know better.....this club has broken more previously unknown records than any club since Stafford & is still doing so to this day, its the only club in the world that creates its own oldies still & as for the dancefloor its one of the things that makes this fantastic Allnighter unique...I dance me funky fat ass off down there & have done since the 8ts, I have NEVER ever, found the dance floor a problem.... this club will go down in history as one of THE best ever... ere ya go one of the best unissued Rare Soul records in the world & 100 Club exclusive for more years than I care to remember.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JY2PV4v2OW0 Russ

I will be there in spirit as I always am, when I'm here in Baghdad & cant make that walk down the stairs into my favourite club, underneath Oxford St........it'll be a banger I'm sure...hope you all make it a memorable night & see y'all soon.... Russ

Anyway...sorry about that, back on topic then.........

Arrrr....I've just realised, when I said 'good for you' I didnt mean 'you' personally....I meant 'good for you', meaning like being run over by a car isnt good for you, generally not YOU....anyone lol.... Russ Russ

Well, it wasnt & I wrote it.... & I dont like drinking at Nighters either. Russ

Er NO, I didnt...It was a generalisation, not aimed directly at you personally, but in answer to your comment, I deliberatle wrote 'NOT NECCESSARILY AIMED AT YOU', so as you would know the comment was not personal. I'm not sure I could have been any clearer ? Best Russ

Just to be perfectly clear about this, I didnt accuse you of anything Pete & I do not advocate the abuse of alcohol or drugs. And may I add that youre a fine one to comment on people shouting thier mouth off - pot kettle n all that lol....any way we havnt had a SS spat for quite a while, so I spose we were due one haha... hope your well mate... Best Russ

Ahemmm........ Russ

What about 50+ adults who go out & get absolutely bolloxed on alcohol.....spose thats perfectly alright & good for you ?...not saying that its a good thing, but its hypocritical for some (not you neccessarily Pete) to come the 'Holier Than Thou' attitude towards gear then go out regularly & get fall over p*ssed...just sayin like...
