I always felt Richards late casino spins were top draw - some of the best sets I've ever heard. I was converted to the dark modern side 77/78 and was really up for the new stuff - but I loved Richards newer sixties stuff too - he was playing great soul music in my opinion - whether that be 60's or 70's.

Thanks Malc. I agree with you - awesome set from the man. I was really enjoying the scene at this moment in time - some great new sixties stuff mixed up with some fairly newly released seventies. Searling at his best.

Have you got the playlist Malc - would be an interesting read

Not on Malc's link it doesn't

Oh bugger - forgot I'd already posted something. Doh!

Not far off the mark Kev - Big Brother is pure shite for the masses.

I was on a crappy live crime debate programme - Crime Stalker in the early 90's. Hosted by the ex copper from Manchester. I was there to allegedly debate whether or not single parents should be jailed or not for getting into debt. I was managing a CAB at the time and was obviously therefore against it - the other geezer was some toffy nose Appeal Court judge. The best bit about it was getting picked up in a limmo and the buffet in the hospitality suite - way over the top. I've also done odd bits when I worked for the RNLI - mostly about appeals and stuff.

Sorry Baz - I'm with the NO's on this one. There are hundreds and hundreds of better "newer" soulful toons than this. On a positive note if you like this there is obviously scope for concerting you into a "modern" boy. Check out the current modern two thread - some great soul on there.

Smashing sounds they are too! I'll just go and pop my coat on.

Credit where credit is bloody due - Pete's the only one really breaking records on the Northern scene.

I liked it when the Rev opened up the modern room downstairs - or was it upstairs. Robin and Adam and.........................? Who else - my memory escapes me.

Wicked toon!

I'll take another Pete.

I like it.

Was a great nighter this. Whose got the pics - and where is the YouTube stuff located?

It looks good to me mate - keep on going!

Me too - and voted! Why do I get the feeling that whatever the outcome of the poll Pete will ne'r gi up his crusade.

Slightly veering off topic - but what's wrong with Mr Floods Party? Ok - it was over played at one time - but still a good toon to dance to when played out. And this from a modern boy!

Err, yes, nice. Where?

I've never discovered anything - well music wise anyway, and just buy the odd bits that I like. Used to pick up some stuff from a little shop in Mablethorpe - Carl Tebbutt used to own it in the late seventies - anyone one here know him? So that's my crappy little story. Anyway I always love to hear the "stories" associated with the scene. Good thread Dave - keep posting em up everyone.

Just out of interest. Is this the version with the extra base flicks?

Now there's a record that SHOULD clear the floor everytime. I think it's awful!

Hey Pete John Reed has just reduced the Carstairs track from £50 to £30. It's got to be worth buying at that price - just so you can burn the bugger!

Has someone already mentioned the: Joe 90 and the Hawai Five O rubbish. :angry:

It fcuking amazes me what developers and planners get away with!
