Simon M

Yep , people dont get Keb Darge's 50's stuff too .. played at Jo's Jo's alongside 60's and 70's

Ive met a few old friends on here , but there was so many at this event/weekender .. I know Bobin was there anyone else ATB Simon Murray

I'd say hes a very happy Scotsman these days . I may have a bet on them against Italy

How comes peope never mention Sam Dee's at Alex Lowes Weekender , it was jammed packed , where have all those people gone . Top bloke ,Sam ( the real Soul Sam) , top weekend

I had a feeling you'd mention that one Steve ...how about another yellow peril Pro Fascination, I WANT TO WRAP YOU IN MY ARMS/TRY LOVE AGAIN .. MOT .. outa New Orleans very hard for collectors now ?!

I'd say hes thinking more about football , and searching for vinyl at the moment

Yes I agree Barry , also The term Modern Soul, was used to differentiate or maybe even alienate the Northern scene in the early 80's, hence all the name calling( of certain personalities) and derogatory comments about the music at that time from the traditionalists . We can now see it has become a rather useless description for new soul music, of that time and today. However I still class myself a Modern soulie

I think he says that coz hes not a very good dancer

huh huh

huh huh

plus the Washington Go Go scene .. Chuck Brown some good stuff from there

plus the Washington Go Go scene .. Chuck Brown some good stuff from there

Oh no thats the one .. No body poppin , or minimal electro beats there

Its USA thang https://steppersexpress.com/about.htm , https://www.soulexpress.net/daproducers.htm Oh yeah youve got Beach and Shagging there too

Hey J , you'll have to learn about Chi-steppers , Deepfunk , 60's newies , Crossover , and Popcorn too ! ps. What is Popcorn

Yes Lin that why we need to drop the term Modern Soul .

Even within the culture it would be more effective , as you can turn up at a UK Modern soul gig these days and only here 1970 to 1977 recordings played

I'd pay over a fiver for a Ronnie Barnes

Do these Orwellians walk round with brief cases hand cuffed to their wrists ?

Gary Lee is a virgin

Steve is way too young to be Sam's brother Mr Williams . Stop being silly and stupid . .. and Gary is more worried about his rare boogie and stepper records being audio hi-jacked to say anything but .. "My precious vinyl , my precious , my precious "

You ****** dont say things like that whilst Steve G is around ,

Hey Roger , your in a very good mood today

Same here Steve , I think the Modern Soul term , ( in some people minds today) encompasses things like Crossover ,funky and Mecca sounds .. Descriptions like 70's and 80's soul, sound good for today ..At least that way I can go to a night an expect some 80's , as it would say it on the wrapper ps, Best fish and Chips , Broadstairs for me , Big Chunk of Cod , and big floppy chips

Hmm bit sparse for me Steve , then again people will dance to anything Sam plays these days
