How Instrumentals Have Dated
Just got around to checking this thread, whlist listening to K-Jee by The Nite-Liters...absolutely awesome instrumental that still sounds as fresh to me today as when I first heard it. So different from most other instrumental tracks played back in the day....Whoever the DJ was that had the insight to play something so left-field for the day deserves much respect... Torch play I believe... and probably a new release at the time too...

Northern Soul,modern Soul,funk,soulful House
Here we go again with same old defensive arguement.. "night club / disco music"...... No offence but if you can't distinguish the music between your local night club / disco and souful house and funk played by the more discerning DJs on this scene....then you really are missing out on some great music. Far too easy to negatively generalise for the sake of safety....

Where Were You In '72 ?
Twelve and a half....the halves were important at that age....I was nearly thirteen...and probably more mature than I am now... I lived there until I was 15....never want to see another fruit machine as long as I live...and I hate bingo too..

Where Were You In '72 ?
Disco 72, Central Promenade, Blackpool.....every Friday, Saturday and Sunday...back to school on Monday, waiting for Friday.... Top tunes were....

That Other Place
Put me down for Wade.....a proper soul record ....and Boba.....not a dance record not an uptempo dance record you mean, ....it used to fill planty of floors over here in its day...

Gladys Knight On Later With Jools Holland
You've summed it up pretty well....couldn't help the goosebumps when she opened with Letter Full Of Tears and Every Beat Of My Heart...absolutely awesome....the Motown songs she did were incredible...and you're right, If I Was Your Woman was just gorgeous.... The general consensus of opinion from the Lorraine's birthday night out ensemble was Gladys can still deliver knockout vocals, and an awesome show....but maybe the Motown tribute medley could have been made up of her recordings rather than Tops, Supremes, Temps, and Mary Wells...otherwise a 5 star show...or maybe 6 for the Bubba fun....

Wanted - Gabin Ft Dee Dee Bridgewater - Into My Soul
The Gabin 12" has disappeared....you had to catch it as a new release....otherwise it's quite a tough one to find now............ The remixed Nina Simone should still be available though....it's on Verve Remixed 4 on Blue Note CD and vinyl album....try Fish at Simply Soul, Juno or Crazybeat....if not in stock....they should still be able to order for you....

Charity Event Or For Profits
My view is that anyone that goes to the effort of organising a charity event should want to shout about how much they raised and donated for charity. That would certainly help and encourage promoters and punters to organise and attend for the cause. There should be no need to ask questions, promoters need to be be upfront and volunteer the information......
