Do you mean Charles Farren - You've Changed My Whole Life Around - Hawk?

I thought this was one of Guy's?

then read something else Stevie if it bores you, no one makes you read it

I gotta agree with all you say about the fancy dress Mark. Was at a do other day and on the dancefloor there was some ridiculous looking outfits, seems that is the criteria to get into the top three of a dance comp as well cause certainly couldn't dance. Those doing the floor tricks don't even do it in time to the music, just throw themselves about with little grace and style. Does little IMO to encourage youngsters onto the scene.

God knows, impossible to work out. For years everything I earnt went on getting to venues etc and records (after board, ciggies, drink and something for the weekend)

Lifeline isn't a smaller venue The way forward is for promoters to program dj's who can play a well balanced set, that flows that also includes a certain percentage of underplyed, semi/unknown tracks, there are plenty that are good enough and are cracking dancers but are disregarded in the name of safety first attitude. A Dj who seems to get on these days is one who waves a blank cheque at records, not one who uses his or her imagination. And I see so many plugs for venues that claim to be underplayed etc but often fail to deliver when I've either been or seen playlists.

oops double post

you forgot to mention the best upfront all-nighter (not just my opinion either )Simon, Lifeline October 31st. The only other nighter with a likeminded ploicy that makes me want to go without driving for over 3 hoursis the Wilton (oh and Bidds when I can). I agree with many ofyour points, the scene has been a failing scene musically by and largefor years. It gets more and more retro every year. Many people spouton about how they want something different but you never see them whensomething is promoted for them, even local to them!

forgot the Fascinators, was indeed Boss Four.

aye I know, just thought I'd repost the list

Keb Floorfillers, appeared in the Echoes in 86 or 87.....

A DJ is there to let those who booked at taxi know it's turned up at end of night A Dj's job is there to entertain and educate (otherwise there is no point going out) but the balance has to be right according to the venue and the policy. But there a too few promoters these days who are prepared to stray from the norm and get DJ's who are prepared to educate with a few unknowns/semi-unknowns, which is a pity.

two good laughs in one topic, getting spoilt tonight. Nice one Russ!!

Brilliant tale Barry, funny as fook.

and where can I get a copy of this cd?

easily worth (well sells for) that....one everyone seems to want lately.

is this a legit licenced cd done from masters or simply summat you are knocking up yourself?

there's plenty that could be titled that Cliff

quick search Bearsy and found this little bit of info about Mr. Wiggles.... https://www.plan9music.com/Article/4325

maybe Little Tommy (Tyrone Thomas) will answer your questions Bearsy.... https://www.myspace.c...eliltommythomas https://www.freewebs.com/butahbeats/ I also posted a biography of him in the past I found on t'internet once upon a time. Mr Wiggles was Alexander Randolph and he owned Golden Triangle, Hemisphere and Sounds Of Soul and based in Richmond, Virginia.

Some info in the Highland bit I did in my blog, it's taken from one of their Lp's...

Have you tried Andy Dyson Phil? He did have one. Dysonsoul@aol.com

Didn't think Butch played this, I can't say I've ever heard him play it, certainly not at the Rocket when his set was recorded (if thats the one you are referring to).

the Philly Dj Kae Williams also owned Junior Records.
