St. Ives was a special event for me. I had heard how good the allnighters were from the older Norwich lads. I would have been slightly too young at 14 to do the niters (although I expect their were a few similar aged kids who did go) so when the Dayers were announced I was chuffed This would have been 1979, and the original East Anglian soul club was promoting the event. I remember hearing the late Nev Wherrys final set and Soul Sam playing Lester Tiptona adding over the mike that he wasn't meant to play it until a fortnight later! Great Times.

That's an All dayer That's an All dayer. Sorry thud was meant to be posted under the Ritz info.

We used to travel from Norwich to Bury Town Hall. There was usually a half decent crowd in with lots travelling from the south and Midlands. It was noted on more than one occasion how many locals weren't in attendance. Mark C

The Bay City Soulers made an appearance at Soul on the Reef in Tenerife.

I had a cassette tape of the very first Kent NS album Where soul begins.

The Non Such DJs hold nights in a pub in Ipswich, not sure of the name. Think there's a night at the Sugar beet club in Bury S.E. but think it's all cds. Get up to Norwich on Sat November 25th for Billy Maguires all dayer at the Oaklands Hotel on Yarmouth Road. Brilliant dj line up inc Soul Sam, Ted Massey and John Parker. Us norwich boys will make you welcome lol Mark Chamberlin
