Winsford Soul

Forgotten by the DJ,s.......... Well i,ve not heard it at any nighter i,ve been to for years. Probably the most iconic tune that sums up the Casino Bobby Paris.... Night Owl... Cameo.... Steve

Love the simplicity of this virtually black and white picture of these redshanks Steve

Thanks Peter. Steve

When my good friend Peter White passed away we had a wreath made in the shape of a record with the flowers sprayed black . The label simply said. I walked away. It was Pete's favourite record of all time. It's such a special record. Steve

This is just a stateside / Motown box set release. Nothing to do with the unissued 7" releases that have appeared recently. So what's all the fuss. Steve

I'm right handed so I'm not barred. Seriously Dave. You have a very valid point. And I have got to agree with you.I wanted to get a round of drinks in and just like you discovered the bar had shut at 5am without I'm aware of last orders getting called.unless we didn't hear it. My statement punished everyone unfairly. Without really thinking it could and would affect people like yourself who in my opinion are the backbone of the scene. I like you know helped run a very successful nighter. We never had any problems because of the way it was promoted, run and managed. But not every event is the same and run like winsford used to be. We never had the need to make it a ticket only event through website's which makes/takes it out of your control re ticket allocation. Steve

Benzine. Village of Tears. Parkway. Absolute monster. Another one full of memories of the greatest time of my life Steve

Florence Devore. Kiss me now.Don't kiss me later. Phi-Dan. Don't know how I remembered this awesome tune. God so many memories. Steve

There's enough soulies on the scene that have worked the doors (badged up ) to be able to act as security and generally along side a local doorman who knows the problem makers on that particular patch working together they generally know who and who isn't soulies. It gets them a paid night out listening to this fabulous music that we all love so much. Steve

Dave you needed the fishes to go with the loaf. All sawbill ducks are fish eaters. Steve

Simple answer for nighters anyway. Let's go back to non alcohol venues. Soft drinks/ tea or coffee.it worked for God knows how many year's. The local piss heads soon get the message that there's no more beer to be drunk and mention it to there peers that's it's a waste of drinking time trying to get in a dry venue so they just go else where in the first place. Steve

Barney. As you will know. Many years back. you had to have a membership of a soul club of some description to get you in and quite a few different venues/ promoters accepted each others membership cards as being acceptable. Don't see why this couldn't work now. A member would pay for example £10 door tax and a non member £15 but would get a £5 refund the next visit Steve

The original poster needs to reveal the venues concerned.. Why all the secrecy if its all over social media. Steve

I payed on the door at a sold out venue last night. Why. like many others i had reserved my tickets to pick up on the door which had to be payed for. I spend a lot of time at venues in foyers/ record bar areas and outside with the great unclean ( smokers ) and i didn't see anything last night that i don't see every week Steve

Pete. Always been hard to tell the difference on all those orange and yellow Capitol tunes Steve

Has anyone mentioned the Three Degrees. Contact WB Steve

seconded Steve

Done . Steve

Rich. A certain Mr Willingham. has a copy and he played it at a recent Stubshaw night. He also played it for me many years ago at Winsford nighter. Great tune Steve

AWESOME. It was a privilege to be in the same room as the Four Perfections. There encore of I,m not strong enough will live with me forever Chris. Marcelle. Andy and to everyone thats ever been involved over the 11 years of New Century Soul Steve

Theirs hope for the black robin. That's if the link works Steve

That's why I stopped going stoke. Was no different from the first one till the ninth one when I stopped. Apart from the theme nights. IE.rare, torch etc etc Steve

Dave. Just been looking through all my bird books and I can only see the one bird like you have described mate either a female or immature male black redstart. The black wheater has a white tail and rump. Steve

Dave. It could be a female black redstart. They look very much like a black robin. Steve

Dave. Got plenty of spare buckets here mate. The sun is actually shinning at the moment. Have just seen a butterfly as I'm typing this. Didn't get chance to see what type, it just fluttered past the window. November 29th. WOW. Steve
