  1. I have been sorted for a copy, cheers all. I thought i posted this earlier.
  2. Please PM me with price and condition. I am not over fussy about what it grades at or label condition. However, it must play well and strong. No daft offers please. Thanks, Jordan
  3. It's hard to explain, but the night in question will probably be attended by mainly young non soullies. So I thought, including soulful house and mixing it with some 70s soul and maybe a bit of straight northern will make the entry to the music a lot easier. I am sorted for a copy now. Cheers
  4. Haha, I've always liked the song. And, I am thinking of putting a soul/soulful house night on with a friend. Thought this would fit perfectly with that vibe. Never, bought from discogs before?

  8. The incident I was talking about was at tbe Wigan young souls night. I am not knocking the night in any way, as they put a lot of effort into it. I dont know who the DJ was, but they turned up right at the end of my set and play Mr Floods Party after I had played it. I know it's not a groundbreaking tune, but I was on early doors so opened my set with a load of classic and got a decent floor reaction, but killed it with some more obscure tunes! Haha I mainly go to scooter rallies so thats where I get my soul fix, some times it can be fantastic and some of the best tunes ive heard. But others, can be dire. Funds are tight and I live in an obscure location, but I would like to get to a couple of quality nights at some point this year.
  9. As a new young DJ, I plan my sets weeks in advance according to venue and type of night I am playing at. I try and choose my set according to what time I'm on and I always try and use some imagination! I always get there first to see what the sst up is like decks and mixer etc. I bring about 3-4 times the amount of records I need so I can completely reorganize my set if needed and to avoid duplicating songs. Ive been at venues where the DJ has turned as my set finishes then plays a song or two thatbhave played... But I tell you what I would like to do, DJ somewhere where the NS top 20 wasn't the only way to get dance floor reaction! But thats another thread!
  10. Any one have a copy that plays well? Cheers

  13. Cheers, hopefully i will find a copy cheap.
  14. Whats the going rate for this please? Cheers
  15. Ive been heavily into soul for the last 3-4 years. But I have just started collecting records in the last year or so. However my first introduction to the music was in the 90s my dad had a tape that he got off a friend, I remember it being of poor sound quality. We used to go on many adventures in the car to far away location doing deal related to scooters. The tape was the soundtrack to all that.
  16. I cleared the floor with Willie Parker - I live The Life I Love... My dad asked me to play it, but even he left the floor! :O
  17. Is the legacy not that people like me (19 years old) are sat in their room booming out original records that would have never seen the light of day without the scene?
  18. Every time I make it to the really windy road I'm always short of fuel, freezing and its pitch black... Always a right mission!
  19. Oh, and mablethorpe.... thats always an epic journey on the scooter!
  20. As a 19 year old lad, I've never done the hitch hiking to get to Wigan or daft train routes to get to the Mecca etc... And now things have changed on the soul scene and these kind of acts are rare i imagine. However, on the scooter scene, the journey there is still and integral part of the scene. We still battle the elements , reliability issues and just about every other road user to get to destination. Theres still such a buzz and sense of achievement when you see the "Welcome to..." sign a feeling of making it despite the odds. Many of the machines are getting on 50+ years old, and these little moped were never designed to do hundreds of miles in a day laden with luggage and camping gear.... In a few weeks time I'm going to attempt a 600+ mile round trip to Dorset and back, just to get my fix of music, two stroke and banter. Heres one journey i've already written up for a magazine; Due to prior commitments, I couldn’t set off to Bridlington till about 2:30 on the Friday afternoon from south Cumbria. The plan was to meet my mate Wal from the Young Guns SC who was riding up from Telford, on the other side of York. Much of the morning was spent killing time and checking my Jet200 over. 2:30 couldn’t come soon enough; I was eager with excitement at both the ride and getting to Bridlington itself. I got a few warning texts of Wal telling me how cold it was riding. No problem I thought, my big thick “submariners” woolly jumper and armoured riding gear would keep me warm… So I set off and sure enough the cold started to set in and it really did feel bitter. My route took me via Kirkby Lonsdale, and I managed to get stuck behind every slow moving vehicle known to man! It was like the stars had aligned against me. My frustration was made worse by the fact I set off so late in the day. Slowly, I managed to get past all the tractors, lorries and trailers. Only to pull in for fuel and watch it all go past me again! Like before, I slowly had to overtake all these again and made good time. The next challenge was Harrogate, I always hate riding through the town. Long tailbacks are almost a certainty. However, to my surprise it wasn’t too bad and after another quick fuel stop I made decent progress. I could really feel the cold now, as rode onwards to York. I got to the meeting place after what felt like an eternity, and the stop couldn’t come soon enough. Light was starting to fade a little, but sure enough Wal arrived, a little later than expected. Both of us, feeling like scooter riding ice burghs agreed on a brew stop in Stamford Bridge. The much needed warm up and cup of coffee did wonders, and we hit the rode once again. By now, it had pretty much gone pitch black. It felt like the blind leading the blind as we snaked through the north Yorkshire country side, as neither standard T5 Mk1 lights nor Lambretta lights are much cop. As we pushed on wards to Brid, we got caught in some sleety/rain, which would stay with us all the way there. The only good thing about the dark and sleet, was that it took your mind off the freezing cold as you had to concentrate so much on your riding. Every cars lights that went past us, seemed to wipe out our headlight beams and highlight every drop of rain or mark on our visors. It was tough going. A fire engine zoomed passed with it lights flashing, so I dipped the clutch and break a little to slow down as it passed. The next thing I knew my clutch cable had snapped! I decided, it would be best to carry on riding without stopping. The last thing I wanted to do was to spend hours on the side of the road in the pitch black and pouring rain. I remember thinking at every roundabout, “please don’t have to stop!” We pushed on to Brid and eventually got there at about 7:45. After pulling a few wheelies around town when snapping the scooter into gear, I decided to push it the last hundred or so yards to my B&B.
