seems like it might have had a (brief) effect though..a nite in weston i play at was the busiest weve been in two years with lots of new faces..could be a coinscidence
but
seen a lot of posts on FB about people going to their first nighter in 30 years this weekend (stoke) and posting tunes THEY ! havnt heard in years..most signing off with KTF ?..
obviously not for the last 30 though!
but
fair play if theyre back for good and maybe willing to listen to some 'new' stuff..its all good i suppose

been discussed on other threads..will be watching if i remember but the cynic in me says it will be the same old same old...got a few dvds with various programmes from tv over the years and they basically all say the same with different faces..same clips from this england and based mainly on the wigan years...seen a couple of clips on facebook and was good seeing them chat to the youngsters...would like to see more of todays scene that doesnt involve oldies nights at kings hall to be honest...i know its the biggest night etc so tv companies are only interested in that but ive seen it a few times now!...still can live in hope

That's the only track on the whole thing that I've already got on 45.
and shares the same lyrics as pat kellys reggae classic 'talk about love'....maybe coinsicidence but cant help thinkin marley may have heard keith barrows 'everythings gonna be alright' too..not just the lyrics but the hammond organ behind has a feel like marleys live gospelish version of no woman no cry...well known fact jamaican producers travelled to the states and brought back 45s to 'adapt'
a few reminded me of early 70s stax stuff too...faves for me so far....roscoe robinsons theres a creator...great vocals and keys and then that sax comes in from no where!....dorothy norwood'gotta be sunshine'...brooklyn allstars top version of in the ghetto...and one defo for today driving round the sw...hopson familys 'hello sunshine' !!

never been.....booked for next year...thought we better see what all the fuss was about...
know the campsite stuff though dj'd at hemsby and camber for the last 4 years or so...much the same i should imagine...camber has had a face lift too and we will be in the soul room in 2 weeks!

but whos detail is actually right!...people on here have said women didnt do acrobatic dancing back in the wigan days..others said they did......people have said women didnt wear the big skirts back at wigan...others including a vid ive seen with keb on saying they did.....
no one was at every soul night or even probably every wigan and most of our memories (i wasnt there but mine from the 80s) are a little blurred....
im suprised to hear so much negativity considering its a soul fan WHO WAS THERE making it unlike soul boy.....i dont think shes cashing in in fact shes taking a big risk...and maybe shes starting to wonder why bother if the hardcore soul fans on here are ready to knock the smallest of mistakes...
i liked the trailor and the young dancers have really come on since the first sessions i look forward to watching it

my parents used to go to the flamingo from norwich in the 50s and early 60s...aswell as ronnie scotts...finished by 62 as my older brother (a yate,st ives go-er) was born...so im third generation of niter go-er!!
my auntie and mums best friend were both seeing black american servicemen..auntie got married to one sadly we are no longer it touch..especially from a record buying point of view!! :-)...i can remember in the 70s when we were in touch my parents would be clubbing with them again at the usaf bases around norfolk...where they would have soul bands flown in from the states to perform...sadly she cant remember any names
they were the bessed dressed teens in norwich with the clothes they got from london and it was the first place she'd seen drugs...although she never took them....

well personally i dont think a mans ego can harm the scene in any way but like it or not levine playing at the 100 club will probably bring more people in than push them away and that cant be a bad thing as crowds have been down at a lot of venues of late...
there are a lot of big egos on this and any scene but the music will carry on regardless

just seen it on facebook too....sure he will be good....either you have an ear for a tune or not and ians history says he has..wotever some of you may think of him....reckon it will be good for the scene to have him back

maybe youre right....but i thought it was funny
-
i did the rave scene for a couple of years in the 90s before gettin bored...human traffic...brilliant film and just like the scene back then...it can be done

i think there will always be so many 'hardly used' technics in the second hand market from all the bedroom dance djs who got bored with it ..
no need to worry...
heard about these laser decks back in the 90s from a reggae dealer who used to sell to some wealthy japenese...what will that do to the price of vinyl as far as condition goes ?? apparently scratched vinyl sounds as good as ex as theres no contact with the needle and the scratch
