DJ OR JUST RECORD PLAYER ??
Think I must be classed as a 'Record Player'. Yes, I do announce the artist and title, but no razzmatazz, no shouting 'let's be 'avin ya' or stuff like that. Some DJ's are perfect MC's, others like to hear the sound of their own voice at the expense of the dancefloor. I prefer to let my music to do my talking, after all, the audience are there to hear records. Try to post my playlists as often get requested to do so and enjoy the discussions after my set! We're all different and another topic is 'do DJ's play safe to fill the floor' or do they play what they like in the hope the audience will also like?

BYRON NORTHERN SOUL -with MARK HOPES
Second event at this new venue in Hucknall, 5 mins from M1. Went along as the music policy suited my taste and I was still feeling a bit low after the events of last week. Easy to find, a few hundred yards off the main road and a very large car park. Room itself is quite big, adequate tables and seating, with a brand new dancefloor installed by the promoters. The sound was top class and deck cameras confirmed only original records were being played and allowed the dancers to 'see what was coming next'. Added to the ambience of the place. The resident DJ's played some outstanding rare'ish and underplayed, together with some well known floorfillers, but not those I normally hear. Wish I had bothered to note them down, but Johnny My Boy, First Taste Of Hurt, I'm Slowly Molding, I'm a Lonely One, The Jokes on You, and I Just Can't Speak were just a few. Mark Hopes was the guest and boy, did he make an impact. One after another of dance tunes you don't hear out at other venues. Vanguards, Soul Incorporated, wish I'd noted them but my memory fades! A busy night, but the audience was clearly affected by other soul events in the area and also Forest were at Wembley. A great venue, so if you don't want to listen to the top 50, give it a try. Simon and Alison will give you a warm soulful welcome.

The Bolton Spitfire Soul Club
Always enjoy DJ'ing over in Lancashire and The Spitfire is one of the best. A very friendly little club attended by knowledgeable soul folk who seem to prefer music which is not overplayed. Not much room left in the car park at 1.45 when I arrived and the room was almost full at the start. A great atmosphere with the dancefloor active almost all afternoon 😉. Really pleased to hear the club can continue for at least the next 2 years and so thrilled to be asked if I would DJ again in the future. Not for you if you want to hear a 'top 50 always played' set of music, this is a real deal OV venue, playing quality soul records across the spectrum. Well worth a visit! Have attached my playlist for those who are interested. PLAYLIST BOLTON SPITFIRE 9 FEB 2025.pdf
