Might have to get you on sometime Bearsy. I know you got some good tunes.

Exactly Steve. Nothings changed !.

Powdered enthusiasm sounds like most northern soul nights in the 70's surely !

I've been given the opportunity to run a room at the South London soul train and wondered what people think. Its already a successful club with 1500 turning up every other week. They get a lot of students anf 20 somethings and the crowd are really enthusiastic. So they've asked me to run a northern soul room and get some DJ's in. Its a great venue with a good dance floor and its on from 10pm till 4am. The plan is to have 3 DJ's having two one hour sets each (myself plus two guests) so every DJ gets a good amount of time to prove their stuff. I just wondered what the soul fraternity thinks. Would soulies turn up, or turn their nose up saying "civillians on the dance floor" etc ? I mean we were all young and innocent in the ways of soul once. We weren't born dancing to rare soul so you have to start somewhere and from what I've seen in the funk room the crowd are really up for it. They're young (probably with a similar enthusiasm to the young people of Wigan, the Torch, Cleethorpes etc- who are now the older section of the scene) and God knows this scene could use some young blood. Any DJ's who fancy a go get in touch. I'm puting a list together. Oldies / newies / motown / crossover etc - but lets go for up tempo ! South London Soul Train The South London Soul Train is a hugely successful club in Peckham, SE15. With 3 floors of music to choose from this event is attracting 1500 people every fortnight. People ready to dance and party the night away. I’ve been lucky enough to get the opportunity to host a northern soul room. Running from 10pm till 4am on the 1st Saturday of every month. This is a great venue with a nice wooden dance floor, reasonably priced drinks and an enthusiastic crowd. At only £5 entry there is no guest list but if you want to avoid the queues (and they queue round the block!) then contact me for a queue jumping pass to go straight to the front. The northern soul room starts on April 5th with Warren Boogaloo and Derek Mead joining me as guests. Warren has run his successful boogaloo night for over 10 years now in Greenwich and has DJ’ed all over London and the South east to great applause. He knows how to please a crowd with a superb mix of classics, rarities and R’n’B thrown in. Derek runs the Bisley nightshift club in Surrey and has just returned from stints at the Prestatyn & Soulvation weekenders. This man breathes, sleeps and possibly even eats northern soul ! Expect to dance your asses off !! In the other two rooms you have mainstream soul & disco from Mickey Jazzheadchronic (it’s a Marvin Gaye special this week) and the funk room with Snowboy & Perry Louis. Spoilt for choice. https://www.facebook.com/events/447838631983201/?fref=ts

Anyone got a Millionaires "Never for me" on UK Mercury or US Philips. Even a repro would do. Also need MVP's "Turning my heart beat up" for a mate. Don't need an original but NOT one of those horrible looking white label bootlegs. cheers Rob
