Tricky

Sean - Too right,my favourite weekender of the year!An absolute across the board music policy sent to a higher level with the afternoon deep soul sets in the back room.Awesome......

Have been on the scene since 1975.Never liked the term Northern Soul because i,m not from up north and it didn,t take me long to realise that after a while it was as much related to pop music and dodgy fashion as anything else.70,s or new releases were always played and accepted everywhere.Be it Wigan,Mecca.Cleethorpes or St ives.Now in my book if its soulful play it.I love a night with across the board music policies.Lifeline is a good current example of this.What does get my goat and to me it seems a copp out when most people on here are rightly championing the unplayed forgotten lesser played sides is this.R&B.Now i,m not talking about raw hard edged soul like Lil Grey,little jewel et all but this late 50,s early 60,s Rock and Roll.What the F****S that all about.Soul i think not!

Jock me old mate,you played Am I Losing You at Yarmouth as well.Do you need some new tunes? Seriously though as good as it is i much prefer Jimmy Delphs version.Got a bit more to it.See you soon as you seem to be avoiding Creative like the plague.

spot on soulful bob, agree with everything you say.just a point about dkof i was at the last one and i thought because cleethorpes was close people were saving pennies? however have since heard that some people did not like the actual new venue which is a shame.on the local do front it is always the same around here.dj at my do and i will dj at yours with no one venturing outside the county.crap!!!!!!! attendances at venues relying on travellers may also be suffering due to the cost of fuel.its no joke filling your motor up twice a week if your paying for it yourselves. anyways don,t crucify soulful bobs opinions as he would never knowingly goad,antagonise or piss you off intentionally.he actually cries himself to sleep some nights.

and it,s good.its just not fast noooorthern soul like lonely,troubled. keep up peeps.look at your credits.you know it makes sense.

i hate talking to mr darcy only to be constantly reminded its his deaf ear. then repeat in other etc etc.i am sure he changes deaf ear weekly! ok mate!

james,fair play, you respond however you like as i did call you an idiot! however, many people on here prefer to look and dont actively participate in the discussions.my point was that by playing any record over and over in any one night is tedious regardless how good said tune is and if you get that point then you will have learnt something.i have no beef with people who are new to the scene.after reading your many many posts i have come to this conclusion though.i have seen people like you come and go.the funk scene got shot of you because of your arrogance and i wonder how long it is before you find a new hobby. yours boring off back to his hole trev

trouble is an idiot!! it wont be anywhere near being played next year. he said at sheffield that it was the best thing he had ever heard (plenty of witnesses there)and should be played 6 times a night.answers on a postcard please as to my response!HE IS TRYING HARD GETTING UPTO 3 AND 4 SPINS OUT OF IT.but my god give me strength.im bored of it already.to be fair to him though he is still learning. cheers trev

dave and soulful bob,im gonna have to break out the vodka before essence.its a conspiricy.its just a sunday lets wind trev up kind of thing.

for f**** sake is this a soul forum or what!if i see one more thread on duffy this pc is on on its way out the window.get a grip!

i just recently purchased a lovely dynamics label white demo of lonely in a crowd.have got all 4 superlatives on dynamics but i have never ever seen a demo before.

Lenny,its so enjoyable playing sets featuring records that have not featured too heavily at other venues.As for the Masterplan track,get it,play it and spread the word on a quality,quality 70,s tune. ps - i have fed Cliff and Val for donkeys years.Though not quite 60 eh!

as gavin once said. its a car park get over it.as a person from further down the road who went elsewhwere as well it played so much crap it was more of a trophy venue than anything else.musically places like yate although they had there moments (the lurch) and later stafford and clifton hall pissed all over it! hope im not being annoying again that iv just got in from the pub. trev northampton.

agree with you all,but heres a little curve ball. i love Boys Will Be Boys - Fidels - Maverick and i,v always thought Mr Hutch was singing lead on this? what do you think.i,m at work now but i,m sure his credits are all over it. it sure sounds like him.

as we all know the variation in delivery times from the states is well,how long is a piece of string! i always find Craig Moerers stuff gets through pretty quickly though.and he is further away than most. levine could do a video.The Strange World Of Posting Soul Records.

i,m just being myself - dionne warwick - wb looong intro.

here,s ten to play / reactivate! pam bowie - he,s all i need - aquarius buddy ace - pleasing you - paula bobby guitar bennett - you did it again - junior marilyn smith - covers mother - so-jamm sir henry ivy - he left you standing there - future dimension 7th ave.aviators - boy next door - congress marvellettes - your,e the one for me bobby - tamla custers last band - i couldn,t last a day - golden charriot johnny mcall - i need you - alteen remarkables - you wouldn,t have anything - audio arts

hate to upset anybody but he did not do a thing at all for me.tried in the beginning,tried in the middle and even now 30 plus years in nada.

most of the album is pretty damn good and i originally bought it for its love baby.however i now prefer track 7 who babe.

i remember 1st time i heard it in the 80,s.jock played it at one of our obscure northampton do,s.he and aidey harley dj,d on there way to the 100 club.never forgot it as it is such a powerful tune.

original label, quite hard,great group of labels. tri city / ultra city / moonville usa / better world.

cheers for that boba.i prefer when we first met.is it the same by the blenders or a diff.version?

not too easy a tune to find,around £150 to £200 i,d say.501 has the nice flip side but i,m sure baby be mine came out as vocal,instr as well.i,m sure Boba would know.

boba, i still come over to yours because, its $2 to the £ i still find tunes, i get great big steaks,(why are american cows bigger than ours) there are even a couple? of decent american beers (not gassy and full of chemicals) the weather,(sun rain and hurricanes) the friendliness of most people except new yorkers. theory - no records in chicago - they all blew away!
