The Way Forward For Dj's?
no bootlegs cant find the mark in the runout wax and anyway cant see it catching on aint got a needle and you need those cracklin sounds and occasional click, and that background hiss,you get from well worn vinyl. plus the mobile dj would have to transfer every various artist cd to mp3 and then down load and then delete all duplicates then add the current chart sounds copied from mtv,dont download just put your cdr on record from your satelite reciever,my daughter does.cheapest way to mp3 and make loads of ipod cartridges cos thats what he will need like this reply too long and time wasting need to get out more. Doug Toon won 2.0 crap performance, Souness must go.

Nigel - Whoever You Are
On this particular Friday, my friend Clive and I were playing Monopoly until he announced that he was going to go home to watch Top Of The Pops. I didn't really want to watch it, It could get quite confusing with all this Detroit stuff, the Spinners and the Emeralds 9-(-7) Four Seasons - - - - - -The Night The big comeback single from Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons was also on it's way down from it's peak of number seven. This single had been recorded a few years previous for the Motown subsidiary label 'Mowest', and had been re-released due to demand from disco regulars. For a while this was my favourite song of all time (well it was until a certain big hit from Queen right at the end of 1975). Frankie and the boys would be back later this year. What disco version actually meant was that it was a longer cut of the track on the A side. James And Bobby Purify reached number twelve with an old recording that had been an American number six hit in 1966. Pretty ordinary song maybe, but another nice reminder of Summer days. Gladys Knight reached number 10 with this, but how could she have failed ? She had two elements of classic soul recordings in the title alone, 'Georgia' AND the good old 'Midnight Train'. Seriously, I remember this single being originally released towards the end of 1973, and listening to it by calling a number listed in the Record Mirror (best UK Music Publication ever). I wondered what had happened to it until it reappeared and charted. 35 Judge Dread The Winkle Man Judge Dread was having his seventh hit with "The Winkle Man" and peaked at 35. He actually said a naughty word in this one. some articles from his site,the comments are priceless. can i email him pretty please Doug
