Five Stairsteps (I'd forgotten until she reminded me, the little luv )

How long did it take to sell that Soul Notes for silly money?

this ain't necessarily gonna help but then 'the law' rarely does in my experience, open as it is to intepretation and dependant as it is, in so many respects, on context. A child (insofar as 'child protection' is concerned) is U18. As I say, it isn't black and white by any means as you encounter different thresholds and benchmarks in caselaw (u13, u16) with regards the issue of 'competence'; again, depends on context more often than not. Ultimately, there are some things that the law says are never ok and infinitely more where folk have to exercise their judgement as adults and parents; these will be underpinned, inevitably, by knowledge and a weighing up of the individuals and any [potential] risks involved.You then make your choice and take your chance. Personally, I don't think it's that big an issue in terms of nighters being overrun with little uns. However, I wouldn't want to see kids at em myself, for many of the reasons already stated here. Soul nights / all-dayers? I think that depends who, when, where, why etc etc etc. At the risk of stating the bleeding obvious, if I was even considering taking one of mine to an event I'd want to be dead clear about the following: - I'm not gonna come unstuck legally or cause anyone else to am I? - is it safe for them and everyone else who is attending? How do I know / how can I ensure that it is? - Whose needs are being met by them attending? Cheers Phil

Itt was Willie Kendricks 'change your ways' that first gave me the WTF is THIS hit the first time I went to a nighter and Stafford did that with knobs on, regularly. As has been said many times, probably a combination of a whole range of factors, including my age, growing interest in rare soul / records, turnover of tunes, quality of the line up etc etc, but there was undeniably something different and special about it and you sort of knew it somehow, without knowing what or why it was - at least I didn't at the time. I've never felt it anywhere since, not even close.

Know what you're saying in terms of sustained, quality output but ... ... GoGate

Guess what, I was watching em t'other day funnily enough

Think I get on a few people's tits banging on about it at times

B-hell I was 18. As Dave says ... it still makes me smile when I look in my box now and see things like the Cairos, Soul Set, Royal Robins, Don and Juan, Fantasians; all TOTW tunes and absolutely mythical records for a yoof buying boots and the odd cheap thing off Mr Brady's list: "buy it now before the price rockets" ... never a truer word!!! Remember meeting up with a lad called Joe Skillern (a butcher from Loughborough way as I recall) on the train a couple of times and he supplied me with some great newies tapes. Dunno what happened to him as we lost touch when Stafford finished but wherever you are thanks mate Unbelievable times which, unbeknowns to me, would shape my taste forever! ps. Who first introduced the latin stuff?

b-hell mate, just sold one Shouldn't be too hard to track one down. atb Phil
