  1. The first original i ever bought, which i classed as starting my collection, was The Younghearts-A little Togetherness- Canterbury issue. This was bought off Dave Withers in the Casino record bar for £3.00, circa 1976. I remember Shaun Pawsey bollicking me for paying over the odds. Funny how i can remember stuff like this, but cant remember what happened last week.
  2. Bought this off Alan Senior in the early 70s for £80.00 which was a lot of money then. Always knew it was a hard piece to get, and Kenny Burrell bought it off me some 30 years later which seemed to confirm that , as he travelled from Scotland to pick it up.
  3. Where have all the characters gone-in the 70,s and eighties it seemed we were spoilt for choice. Here is my personal list of people who used to make your night if you bumped into them at a nighter. Craig Dethick - Rotherham Mark Ellis - Rotherham Yammi (Andrew Edwards) - Rotherham Mally (Carl Mallinson) - Rotherham Chris Porter- Rotherham John Phillips-Doncaster Neil Toplis - Doncaster Rob Taylor - Doncaster Gary Hepworth - Where ever he could get Sean Pawsey - Rochdale Col Taylor - Rochdale Forget the DJ,s and the promoters, these are the people who for me made the journey so memorable.
  4. Cant turn you loose-Otis Redding-Live version on Atco
  5. Bought this many moons ago from Andy Dyson, a tenner i think. One of my all time favourites, and that ending gets me every time. How many more times must i blame grit in my eye.
  6. Can anyone remember "Soulie" the comic strip in Black Echoes, around 76-77
  7. Was only reading issue 8 the other night, which was the Roger Banks wedding special, as it says on the front cover "A story of passion, romance & potatoes". Also advert for Togetherness alnighter- Northern Soul like it used to be.......5 million years ago!! Featuring three hundred DJs in three seperate caves. First 20 people in recieve a fabulous free stone/flint axe & hunting spear, plus sabre tooth tiger loin cloth. Togetherness.. The venue that time forgot. Page after page of piss taking which left me in tears. Absolutely brilliant and what the scene should be all about, having a good laugh at itself.
  8. Spot on. Ray Hudson also joined us as well. Usually got there around 5.00 and left around 7.00. Had my shoes thrown out of the car window and generally met people who i only thought existed in far fetched police dramas. I can laugh about it now, but at the time-Jesus
  9. Travelling down with Craig Dethick & Alan Flysher, and travelling home with Yammi. Brings me out in a cold sweat just thinking about it.
  10. Harrythedog commented on a comment on a gallery image in 1970s Soul
  11. Always remember Dave playing- Love is After Me- jumping off the stage onto the floor, having a dance, then climb back up to play the next record without a break in the proceedings.
  12. Used to go from 1975 until 1979, with the Doncaster & Rotherham crowd and met up with a group from Rochdale. I have got a number of photos and a cassette from the Friday night Wheel & Torch night. As i remember at that time walking around generally taking photos was frowned upon, and if someone wandered about with a cine camera, i know for certain that they would have been warned off in no uncertain manner.
  13. I remember well hearing this for the first time on a saturday night at the Casino. I knew then that the game was up and the sooner the Casino shut the better.
  14. I ran this event for a number of years along with Russ White & John Phillips from Doncaster. What a fantastic venue. This was a growing venue, until the local residents complained about the noise, and the council cut the closing time down to 11.30. With people travelling from Manchester & the East Coast we viewed that the event could not continue with such an early finish. The music policy was a mix of oldies and rare underplayed oldies, which was a brave format at the time as most of the venues were playing predominantly oldies. In fact quite a few big records today were first played at the Welfare. I cant say we had any complaints about the format and the music policy was accepted and embraced by the knowledgeble crowd. The regular DJs were-John Hurst,JohnPhillips,Russ White & Neil Toplis. The guests we had over the years were top DJs such as Andy Rix-Saus-Derek Greenhoff-Bub-Chalky-Pincher twins- Mark Biknall-Rodger Banks- Gary Spencer and many others i cant remember at this present time. It was that good Rob Thomas never missed one(never paid as well). Somewher i have a video which was taken at the xmas all dayer, which was a packer. Will have to hunt this out. Fantastic memories of this fantastic venue.
