It still would be interesting . Did he play the Total Warmth coverup . Thats been uncoverd !!

Any playlists Marc ?

You'd have to have huge knowledge of the Northern scene from 70's to now ( with no gaps ) . In my opinion its almost impossible to find records like the Parliaments "rainy day " now ! Maybe thats why peolple are giving up, having some tea and a hob nob and putting some deep soul on

The greatest Northern DJ probably spent 3k in the last 5 years and its now 50k . His name is Mark Dobson

LOL , I was buying Modern , .. NS was £5 to £50

Ive always had the tiltle of the thread in mind Ian... Ive never acted like Uncle Albert ..."During the War " etc etc

To be fair , he got gigs that most young NS DJ's just dream about

Yes I think thats best . I dont even know why he wanted to be a NS Dj to be honest

James Troubles story would have been great for this thread .

If DJ Doobhirst was a Football manager , for today , he'd try to buy George Best and Pele :lol:

Aye very true Jocko

Is there a couple of young Dj's / diggers in the USA that have built up good sets /box's . Im not sure but does Dave Thorley book one of them ?

Well, jokes aside , I think Paul Sadot has accused you , in the past , Ian?

Damp squibs ,

I think Ian W had the first one on ebay , and then Butch had one . But as Ians playing tennis we will have to wait a while

No sorry Ian . You are going to have to learn some IT skills yourself one day . Plus it actually sounds like a dire fate , no wonder people are giving up

I was just about to say " Perfect job for DJ Dooberry " lol

Fair play Gareth . And yes your last comments are indeed food for thought . Then again , the oldies fans look like they can go on forever

I am great DJ who will lend me some carvers

Ok lets say you want to DJ at the best Northern events in the uk . I'd say you would need 25 Top og records for your box... amongst the cheap available ones you have amassed already Can I ask garethx to list down these 25 wants/needs ( as I know him and sort of trust him ) and then we can go about Pricing them . Let's do a Man City :thumbsup: Simon

two or three went through on ebay last year or was it two years ago , Wrighty ?

You could just make it , with some luck, as a "Hotboxer "

Very good post paulf .

Ah ok , I might do that tonight . Ive always wanted to be a Northern soul Dj but could never afford it .
