Sure it was Kenny & not Lenny?

Heard a similar thing about rival promoters telling punters that a "Rival" venue had been cancelled in the town nearby only this weekend, ought to be ashamed of themselves or more ashamed of getting caught at it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Too right Rob, knocked our numbers right down. Lot of our regulars had calls/texts saying we had cancelled. Not 100% certain who was behind it but when i find out i ain't gonna be a happy bunny. B*st*rds

Keep promising to get my arse over to Yarmuff so ya finally convinced me Sean. Will be there next year, I promise. Would also be nice if a few of the contributers got over to our little shindig in Rotherham tomorrow night, how ya fixed Sean? How about Rod, Pete & Baz coming over as well, if ya do guys the beers on me all night but no wearing earplugs though ya hear

Will be listening Mark. Keep up the good work

Oh shit! Partly responsible for this as i played it at our 1st Modernism night nearly 2 years ago & also played it at Prestatyn in 2004 & killed the place stone dead Heard someone else play it the same weekend & they got a similar reaction (think it was Hobbsy but don't quote me on this). Proceeded to give it away but then bought another copy as it was getting requested. Also played it at Modernism when Sam guested for us & it went right over his head at the time (as did Vincent Montana). If folks ask me to play it now i try to make my excuses & give them a cd of this to listen to. It's Betty Wright doing the original version live. Proper SOUL music.... 01___Betty_Wright___Tonight_Is_The_Night_1.mp3 As the Dalek said to the dustbin - "We all make mistakes" but let's not forget DJ Genisis was recorded as a "Tribute to Betty Wright"

PMSL Manno. Funniest thing i've seen on here for ages Guess my goth-source user name would be Blade For Death

Time for this Months "slag off Modern" thread is it? A very good friend of mine is a very big Robert Johnson fan & to him 60s soul is Modern so i guess the answer to the question has to be a resounding yes. If you don't know who Robert Johnson is don't bother doing a search as you wouldn't understand my point anyway. Just read these Robert Johnson lyrics from 1936/7 & see if they sound a little familiar.

Sadly true Rob, saw this news the other day on the Detroit forum. Here's the link.. https://faac.us/adf/messages/2/96855.html?1147173874

For fcuks sake Sean don't go putting idea's like that into his head

Just stumbled on this on a sales list. Somebody please tell me it's April 1st Dolly Parton-Busy Signal Monument DJ USM-£100.00A good Northern dancer. Music is similar to Holly St James / Joanie Sommers Apologies in advance for posting up this soundclip & no i ain't got it.

A familiar tale of cross Channel postal inadequacies told in fine style by Mr Franklin. The crepe paper, the circus cannon & the local Royal Mail football practice is something we are all familiar with but then your fine tale comes a little unstuck Brett. The more observant members of this site must surely have noticed that the Royal Mail would never and has never employed an Indian elephant as they are far too intelligent and would never try to ram a 7" wide parcel through a 6 1/2" wide letterbox. Only an African elephant would embark on such foolishness. Your'e nothing but a fraudster Franklin, a fraudster ya hear...

Don't worry Dung. My lips are sealed. Had a Willie Fisher & a Ray Munnings 12" demo out of there in recent weeks BTW is Dung a Japanese name or have i got the wrong end of the stick again

Great link James Was only talking about this the other day in a friends record shop in Sheffield. His shop sells collectable vinyl from all musical genres but as a soul music fan he kind of specialises in original & re-issue soul releases.. For the last few years he normally moves about 1/2 a dozen copy's of each re-issue a week but in recent months this has dramatically dropped. A classic example is the recent Bill Bush boot. He has had 1 copy in the shop for 6 weeks without a sniff of a sale (terrible record IMO but that's besides the point). Good to see Sheffield 2nd in the list, Backs up the hard work done by local Sheffield promoters like the Vault Of Soul lads, John Vincent etc & also makes a promoter who started a venture recently look rather foolish as he said he was "putting the soul back into Sheffield"

Seriously for once Dave. Lot's of theories on this but the most popular one dates back to the early 1980s when the now legendary DJ Frankie Knuckles was the resident DJ at a Chicago nightclub called the Warehouse. Frankie Knuckles pic The rest as they say.....

Good to see that you accept that it's Soulful Just had an idea. Why don't we call it "New Northern Soul" Only having a Giraffe mate

Sorry Shane but the stuff you hear in the bars in Sheffield might be House but it certainly ain't Soulful House (if it is you must let me know where they are mate). Was good to see you at Prestatyn in the House of Soul for a few minuites, at least you gave it a chance. Shame a few more didn't follow your lead. Likewise i popped into the RnB room to have a listen for a few minuites & had an interesting chat with Joe Dutton & Roger Banks in there. We sort of agreed to disagree on most things but the one thing we did agree on is how boring it would be if we all liked the same stuff & if we did niether of the mentioned rooms would have been open. Main point i'm trying to make is i don't come on here slagging off RnB & i have given it a chance so is there any need for folks to try hijacking this topic & spoiling it simply because they don't like whats being talked about. Think a lot af folks are missing the point on here & as usual are looking at this strictly from a Northern viewpoint. Mart...

A Bretby Monster. Faith - Dr Gary Henry. Enjoy.

Top quality 1st post Modernlass Pretty much followed the same road as you musically. Got into Northern in the mid to late 70s, loved it at the time & still do. Then came the modern breakthrough in about 1980 via tracks like King Tutt, Larry Brown, ZZ & Co (all big Northern tracks now) & always went to venues that played both if possible. Soulful House just seemed the natural progression for me musically. Good quality up-tempo danceable soul music. Don't get me wrong, still love the northern & late 70s/early 80s stuff but for me Soulful House is just the missing peice of the jig-saw for me at the moment. Had some great times spinning Soulful House at the Bretby Nighters a few years ago when Terry Gee ran the modern room & it was suprising how many folks came in from the Northern room & had a great time. Probably going to get all the usual "Disco Shite" quotes from the same old faces for this post even though i don't go slagging stuff off that they like but what the hell, each to there own i guess. Heard this played a few times in northern rooms recently & always to a good dance floor response, Originally done by Ultra High Frequency on Wand. Deep Sensation - Soul Heaven...

Nice version that Lars, seem to remember a Kenny Dope re-mix of the Orgone version a while back but it ain't the version i'm looking for. Thanks anyway , Mart....
