Adam T told me about this on Saturday.. Good stuff! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MkiyUAiTEuU

Yeah you're right mate - it was that reply of your's to the wheels on the bus thing. Don't get upset Kev don't think you're under suspicion.

That's not answering my question.

If it was free to get in who gives a toss? Some would. But would you take money from people and play them pressings?

What circumstances make it appropriate Mick? Would people be paying to listen to those turds?

I read it wrong Ged, sorry. Matt & Sean pointed that out.

Twelve thousand three hundred and eighty hits! SS back at it's best. Even if it is originals v pressings again! Apologies to those I replied to in hast. Thanks all, night.

Decent dj's still get decent money (sometimes) though. Who are these real dj's you speak of?

Who Chalks? KevH? Seen them do what?

The conductors on the bus say tickets please, tickets please, tickets please the conductors on the bus say tickets please all day long.

Yes bane, sorry.

Tough shi... No I wouldn't say that Steve, I'm not that argumentative. Wrong again? What's your problem? Blades won didn't they? This bas*ard is the bane of my life.

Glad you enjoyed it.

Hats off to your deciphering skills Matt.

If my understanding of Ged's post is - it's alright to play pressings of Frank Wilson and Lou Pride out, because otherwise you wouldn't have heard them much over the last 20 years.. Then with respect, I'm sorry but I strongly disagree. In the last 20 years you would, should, or could have got these sounds on tape and listened to them at home or in the car. Who has the right to embark on such a false moral crusade? Having rare original singles played out by dedicated collectors/DJ's is what helps keep the music rare and desirable. If thats uncomfortable for some, then to quote Pete S, tough s**t.

Sounds encouraging Anton! Best wishes and a speedy recovery. Ian.

Like the new sig, Edmund Burke.

'This case' you speak of is one of deceit. That much goes without saying I would have thought? Not sure about all deceit (esp in this day and age). Ask a card carrying Christian and see what they say.

What Grapevine one's mate?

Putting on a 'rare soul night' and playing boots is deceitful. Is that deceit evil? That was your question wasn't it? Ah but would you play them out?

? Lost me a bit there Mark.

Only a bit? Deceit; 1. the act or practice of deceiving; concealment or distortion of the truth for the purpose of misleading; duplicity; fraud; cheating: Once she exposed their deceit, no one ever trusted them again. 2. an act or device intended to deceive; trick; stratagem. 3. the quality of being deceitful; duplicity; falseness: a man full of deceit. https://dictionary.reference.com/browse/deceit

Agree with that Mike. For a credible soul night in a decent sized venue however it's likely they'd have some rare and expensive as well. A balanced mix would perhaps be the best set. I played Pat & The Blenders at the 100 Club once and someone ran on the stage and peered at the label. You know it goes on. They're entitled to do it. You can't stop stage runners. Is it worth the shame of pretending to be something you're not?
