Excellent article Mark! and furthermore with yourself having been very influential on the vinyl habits of many over the years, myself included, it's great to see the overall continual enthusiasm that still exists from a collecting perspective in general!

News: The 100 Club Allnighter - 40 Years on by Butch & Co
I cannot emphasise the importance of the 100 club over the years, and moreover from a personal perspective! I won't go over previously stated comments, only to add that I totally enjoyed my every visit to this iconic venue from early doors, until my last visit some years ago. Total respect to Ady for the longevity and utter commitment to the Soul community, and furthermore the superb music played over the 40 year period, and also some of the exceptional Dj's that have graced the decks at the legendary club, and whilst I've witnessed many......Mr. Mark Dobson (aka Butch) stands out as someone who influenced many, and continues to do so.......Keep on Keeping on! wilxy
