CULCHETH SOUL - TED MASSEY & SOUL SAM
I for one had a fabulous night at Culcheth - we arrived slightly later than planned due to the ever unreliable mancunian way after collecting Robbo (who by the way was on top form already by then) - mental note to self, just detour back to the M60 next time!!! Mick Howard had already taken charge of the wheels of steel delivering one of his usual solid sets (Mick where's the list?) a great mix with one eye on the square wooden thing of course. Robbo - joined by his long time partner in crime Bob Hinsley (always wonderful to see Bob) were up next and as expected set the bar high, no pressure Simon... The Culcheth crowd is never the same month on month so always a nice challenge to try and find the sweet spot, of course that's a moving target but I enjoyed trying - my set listed below to give a feel of the night, maybe not all in the correct order (I've slept since) .... Kev Murph as we've now mentioned in many a review, is really enjoying the final hour and all I can say is that right at the end of the night the floor was still buzzing when he dropped the needle on The Magnetics - Count The Days (whoosh as Mick would say ) I should add - I popped my head into the modern room briefly on a few occasions to observe a happy looking crowd and a lively floor. Great Job BazM - keep up the good work 1. Exotics - Let's Get Together 2. Keith & Billie - Tastes Sour Don't It 3. The Temptations - You've Got To Earn It 4. Troy Dodds - Try My Love 5.

ASHTON UKRAINIAN CLUB
The Ashton Ukrainian club has gone from strength to strength following the re-launch in 2021 and a move to Saturday night. For 2025 we're looking once again to continue delivery quality rare and underplayed soul from the residents and ever growing list of outstanding guests. Speaking of ‘Rare & Underplayed Soul’ we use that phrase to capture what Ashton tries to deliver musically, which is worth expanding upon. Mainly it's an attempt to move away from the standard music policy strap lines we’re all so used to seeing like; Northern, 60s & 70s, Crossover, Modern, across the board etc. etc. whilst genuinely trying to capture an ethos. The words ‘rare’ and ‘underplayed’ are intended to apply both in their own right and together, it certainly isn't supposed to be limited rare records that are also underplayed……we should have added quality in there too LOL. In a nutshell you will hear all three combinations of the phrase on any given night at the Ukrainian Club; ‘Rare’ (but not for rarities sake) ‘Underplayed’ (but not because they’re not good enough) and of course ‘Rare & Underplayed’ but, all with one eye on the dancefloor. We don’t have a music ‘policy’, all our residents & guests are free to express themselves as they wish, which we believe adds to the magic. So simply expect a great night of quality soul music if you ever get the chance to join us at our friendly little club.

LOWTON CIVIC CELEBRATION ALL-DAYER
A fantastic night - as already stated by Mick & Rob well deserved for Baz and all his efforts in promotion with all the unseen trials and tribulations in setting all this up for our enjoyment, brilliant to see so many in attendance. I spent most of the night in the Rare & Underplayed room but ventured into both the main room and Modern rooms many times to sample the atmosphere in both which by early evening was really growing and starting to bounce! A huge thanks as always from me to all the DJs and of course the crowd who without them all this would be pointless Here's my selections from the last hour - I promised myself to try and keep it in the ethos of the Kenwood Suite and the Rare & Underplayed side of things Cleveland Robinson - Boy (1006) Keith & Billie - Tastes Sour Don't It Richard Stoute - What Bag I'm In Johnny Rodgers - Make A Change The Informers - A Hard Way To Go Henry Moore - You Really Grab Me Cash McCall - More Power To You Solomon Burke - Save It Hayes Cotton - I'll Be Waiting (Claire) P.P. Arnold - Speak To Me Bo Fowler - The Upper Hand (Associated Recording Studios) The Clovers - For Days The Vontastics - Let Me Down Easy The O'Jays - That's Alright The Clovers - Try My Lovin' On You Gene Faith - My Baby's Missing The Fabulous Apollos - What's So Good To You Ron Kenoly - Moving On The Vibrations - Love In Them There Hills Cody Black - It's Our Time To Fall In Love Carl Hall - Is Your Love Going Or Growing Don & Debbi - I Can Be Happy Darrow Fletcher - I Think I'm Gonna Write A Song

LOWTON CIVIC CELEBRATION ALL-DAYER
I echo your thoughts Steve - it's easy to underestimate how much work goes into pulling these things together and Baz is one of the hardest working promoters out there, as well as a fantastic DJ able of pulling together amazing sets across the sub-genres which many are not aware of ..... deffo not a pigeon hole X-over and Modern DJ, in fact a Dark Horse .... his profile is missing from this thread isn't it!!! Footnote - Baz paid me to say all that

LOWTON CIVIC CELEBRATION ALL-DAYER
Here's a map of the area - The Village Club is marked, plenty of parking available but if it's maxed out the best options are off the main road B5207 there's some parking near the green (see red arrow) and it's probably a 5min walk back to the club. I'm not sure Wigshaw Lane itself is a good place to park - it may even be restricted. Hope that helps.

Yes Mick it'll be a great opportunity to relive some of the Kenwood Suite memories and I'm certain all the DJs will deliver with the same ethos ..can't wait...rare but not for the sake of it and underplayed but not because they aren't quality tunes...job done 👍
