    Richard, on the full player bottom right under the balck screen, says embed, click on this and copy and paste the link. Family Plann - Come On Lets Do The Breakdown -
  2. Jimmy Norman sez "Its Me", will that do
  3. whatever the inaccuracies (and the vast majority of films use artistic licence) from what I've seen it looked ok and I'll reserve judgement until I have seen it. I did cringe when I saw the break dancing but I can see the film for what it is, a drama with northern soul as a backdrop. Its not as though its a history of northern soul is it. Anyway, I'll wait until i've seen the film before passing judgement. And as for the clapping in the film it can't be any worse than at a venue these days, its terrible. And as for Magic Carpet Ride, is the unissued Derek Martin the original? It is after all a Teddy Randazzo production?

  6. Graham, go into the All About Soul forum and look at the cheap as chips topic enough recommendations in their to keep you happy for a long time. Everyone cheap too.
  7. what I said was my own personal view (I am allowed one) and nothing to do with moderation. The mods haven't got involved I did on a personal level. The so called tongue in cheek comments weren't needed, no one knows the overheads, how many needed through the door to cover their costs etc and why there is a tenner price difference and in the scheme of things does it matter, £30 is cheap for three days entertainment. The tongue in cheek comments from more than one, had one meaning, anyone could see that and anyone with any knowledge of this forum knew exactly where the topic was heading. There was no need to say one does it solely for the money and the other to cover their costs, load of crap IMHO, both do it for the same reason. off to work!!

    Blue Rock the label of this week, we start the new one every Sunday.
  9. that is still cheap for NYE, club scene would be £50+
  10. It s bloody cheap IMHO. The soul scene have been a bunch of tight gits for years Tenner for an allnighter and still some moan. You wouldn't get a night out in a club for ten hours for a pound an hour. Bet it would cost double that in a top dance club? The cost to the average punter has hardly gone up for years, especially soul nights, we seem to want everything on the cheap. Just had a google, Ministry Of Sound, £13 10.30 till 6.30 the cheapest, many other nights at £15 and £20. Would a soulie pay £20 for an allnighter?
  11. not being funny either Joan, I don't know one promoter who runs a venue to make a loss....whether they are a business or not. I don't see any of these who are happy to simply cover costs donate all the profits to charity. Like I said this topic after just a few posts was beginning to turn into a slag off Kev Roberts topic......don't think we done that one before There's plenty on here and on the wider scene who make a living out of the soul scene, I don't see them get a constant slagging off!
  12. I understand Bob asked a general question and nothing against that but it was IMO heading to a slagging off of one promoter with some of the comments made, with comments like one does it to make loadsa money and inferring that's all he does it for and that the other does it to simply cover their costs, I suppose any profit will go to charity?
  13. When it simply becomes a medium for slagging off a promoter all the time. What I said was my own personal opinion, nothing to do with being a moderator. The topic was after just a few posts turning into a slagging off of one promoter and hailing the others as saviours of the peoples scene, that to me isn't a discussion.
  14. that's not the label on the record. plenty of US acetates such as RCA that look like above too. That track on the you tube clip was "stolen" at the rocket when Gavin taped the sets of the DJs without permission.
  15. do we have to turn this into another slagging off of certain promoters. People have choice, go or stay away. Both are popular events and no one knows what the overheads are at either.

    at the end of the day peoples time is precious and it does help if people know fully what they are opening.

    Not aimed at you Mark, almost everyone does it.
  18. Thanks for the TD sound-files Seb, will have a listen when I get home.

    Can I ask again that when you ask for a value or values you mention the record in question in the actual post (this bit). Most of you are simply putting the record in the Topic Description box only and if a user is using a mobile phone then you can't see the Topic Description Box, well I can't on the iphone. Been a couple today I didn't know what you were talking about until I managed to get on the laptop! The same can be said for wants requests in the wants section.

    What is the Blue Rock acetate Butch been playing last few years?

    I take it this never saw the light of day on a 45?

    4005 - Big Tim & The Empires - Cheaters Never Get Anywhere / My Girl's Prettier Than Your Girl Does this one exist? If so anyone ever seen one? I always thought it was never issued?

    people will make a choice, they will go where there mates go, go to the one more local maybe, but its not always the scene that wins at the end of the day.
