Playing Funk Records At Soul Venues
Funk has always been played on the Northern Scene - it just depends on your definition of "funk" To me records like "Baby Boy" - Fred Hughes, "There Was A Time" - Gene Chandler, "I'm Gone" - Eddie Parker, "I Can't Get Enough" - Johnny Sayles, "The Champion" - Willie Mitchell all have a "funky" edge.

What Makes A Mini Nighter.?
My point being if you attend the event to be in the modern room or R&B room - whichever is your bag. The promoter then shuts them rooms - you have to then go into the main "Northern Room". You have still paid the same admission price as everyone else but the music you attended the event for in the first place is no longer being played. Your choice is to either leave or listen to music you don't really want to - not really much of a choice is it ? Think the all nighters that Chris Waterman promotes allow you to leave early & you pay a reduced admission price for this - he is to be applauded for that.

What Makes A Mini Nighter.?
What about the 2/3 room "all nighters" that choose to shut some of the rooms halfway through the event but fail to advertise this on their flyers or promotions. I find that "sharp practise" TBH.

Out Now on 45! - Sandra Wright - I Come Running Back -Shotgun
Nice to see it on a single - great record. Are you allowed to play it out or does that violate the OVO code - in which case you have to persevere with the album - or can you play this if you have the album with you to prove you have the OV ?

Major Lance's Greatest Hits Live At The Torch
Bit of an "Emperor's New Clothes" album to me. Great from a nostalgia point of view - if you were there. The backing musicians are truly dreadful though !!!

How Come They Never Made It Big?
You must have been looking in Colin's box Ian - it was a "last hour" spin for him - don't recollect ever hearing IL play it. Big fave for the Preston, Chorley & Fylde Coast folks.
