I hear Martin gave you a free transfer

I though you Northerners got ya tans at Margate and Bognor

Hmm I dont like early 60's Sean too many Chas and Dave piano types

I wont say what you said about porridge Paul

No I never , they did the Gap band dance all night

Saxie Russel , blimey Ive not heard that for ages

Thats right Ian , if you gave most DJ's 20'000 records to play they would still pick the same 20 that had worked the floor 10 years ago ..and thats not just the NS scene try Caister too

Too much Acid Ian .... Dont worry I have clogs I lived in Holland for a few years

Hey I thought you said you didnt like that first half of the 60's Sean

Less is more Ian

Thank you Steve , I'll get you a shandy for that at Skeg this Weekend

Some of that stuff Keb and Guy played was torture for me thankfully Butch took all the cherries

No need for that Ian Its quite easy to avoid the obvious records with a bit of homework and phone calls to the promoter , also I usually DJ at venues that have a mish mash of genres so its easy ..Well I think its easy anyway I like it when Jocks bring something fresh to a scene good examples of DJ's that do that for today on retro scenes are Butch and Ian Wright and they carry about 200 records but they dont really DJ enough ps. Clogs are coming back in pps. The same tunes get played because DJ's lack imagination and intuition ...not for lack of choice

They forced the stuff you liked onto you as well Pete

Ian ..I think most scenes have been forced down the digital route ( also add the fact that DJ's have found Serato and FS to their liking because its actaully Vinyl emulation ) . The most pertinent point has been made by Chalky as indeed most Retro scenes need collectors/Dj's to find old and obscure vinyl to bring fresh tunes to the scene . I think the scenario you champion of carrying 20'000 mp3s and wavs is best suited to Mobile and Old Cheese jocks hahahaha ..so they can cover any requests

Shes Goldie Lox too

I knew it .... you fancy her

£5 Flanny along with the Fabulous Playmates etc etc back in the day

Jeeez and I was saying Mrdarcy got ripped off in 1978 for buying one at £2.50

Have you seen the German issues .. Steve G has some

I bet you like the 60's versions of those too .. fluffy

LOL You'd never get past an interview for the Jazz Police Pete

Jazz Police talk about vibe, genius and improvisation rather then just the format and date

Ahh right ok Steve I think anyone can keep a floor busy these days on the NS circuit , just play Cheese and Tomangoes like James Trouble and Sean Chapman

Hey Steve . in your blog youve said ... that you like clearing the floor during your spots can you explain this concept for us
