A fantastic night gone. When Tony & Mark considered & then asked me to become resident DJ, I was thrilled. Just one answer. When you stepped down the stairs into the cellar, you immediately knew the Greatstone was a venue to savour. All the guys & girls are brill and those of whom had the good fortune to be behind the decks, were honoured. Friends danced, listened or did both. Let's not forget Martyn, who in the early years performed, without exception, some truly tasty food; chilli, curries (both meat & veg) amongst other succulent fayre. Many thanks to Martyn from us all. The Greatstone has over the years, had most of the best British (please note Keith) playing their quality, known & unknown tunes for all to appreciate. I do remember I used to go behind the decks around midnight, to occasionally turned 3am. One night in particular, the dance floor being mopped of perspiration and condensation; twenty three dancers crammed on the dance floor on an already packed night. Brilliant! Superb Jo. The conversations I had with too many to mention, especially about N.S. where enlightening. Those conversations about everything else.......so many laughs. Soul fans from around the country Scotland & Wales and occasionally from abroad, were always made very welcome. I loved it!!! Cheers to Tony,Mark, Paul, Pete (Budgie), Adrian & the Oswestry Gang. Thank you to everyone from the bottom of my heart; there will never be another night like the Greatstone. As the Artistics sang..." I'm gonna miss you". Lastly, a super big Thank You to Mike for this tremendous site- Soul Source. So many happy memories. Goodbye; but I hope to see you all in the future. Stevie Z
