Agree Chalky, nostalgia rules the waves, been well documented on here, but as you say, it doesn,t look like dying off any time soon Kev

Weekenders....is There A Demand For A Rare Soul Weekender?
Hi Nev, quality as in not compromising soul content, subjective I know, but its just the way I see it, heard a few sets which included the "funky edge" stuff, quite a bit of it didn,t do it for me, some was good, like I said, subjective but a good subject matter, worth debating. Best Regards Kev

Weekenders....is There A Demand For A Rare Soul Weekender?
Agree 100% Joan, the need to be alternative has definitely interfered with quality, some of its good, but a lot of it like you say aint good enough, its just alternative Kev

New Cd Swap - Whatever Floats Your Boat
Agree Mike, since Refo was stopped, this is by far the best way to hear stuff that floats your boat, its a bottomless pit I reckon that we pull from if you like all aspacts of this great music, can honestly say, most days I hear something new that I like, CD swap has defo had a massive impact on collecting.

Dean Andersons Radio Show- Gilly As Guest
Just got up from night shift and listened to this fantastic essential show, the atmosphere in the studio must have been fantastic, fantastic rapport between two of the nicest guys you could ever wish to meet, Gilly,s stories absolutely captivating (can,t wait for Andy and Nicola to complete the book), and the music, well, what did we expect, Peter and the Wolves, "dear me" great stuff Deano and thanks Chalky for sorting it for us folks who couldn,t listen initially, absolute essential l;istening Kev

Playlists, Or The Lack Of Them
Personally, I like to see playlists where the guy or gals doing the spinning are thinking outside of the box, places like the aforementioned Sunday Chillout in Doncaster, off the top of my head Tommy Turner "I,ll be gone" on Elbam, the dancefloor ain,t king here so as a result theres no pressure on the DJ and as a result he opens out more musically, point being we lads from the NE would never have stumbled on this gem of a do without the playlists on here Kev

Playlists, Or The Lack Of Them
- Wilson Pickett - (Artist Of The Week)
Great call Pete, this thread should run for a month, like the Dells, Bobby Womack etc should have, guess they aint rare enough for some folk Kev- Playlists, Or The Lack Of Them
Cross referencing the other thread really Chalky where the topic turned to people who have no minds of their own when it comes to records, ain,t really soul fans and have to wait until so and so plays or says a records good, I think its probably common knowledge who pinch sounds from other people and theres plenty of them about Kev- Playlists, Or The Lack Of Them
Totally agree, with peoples liesure time so precious these days, especially those with families, you need to be clear about your choice of venue, I can vouch for the guys who do The Sunday Chillout at Doncaster, we travel regularly now as a result of them posting their brilliant playlists. Kev- Wilson Pickett - (Artist Of The Week)
Kind words indeed Steve, glad you liked them, suprised I aint already put them on CD for you cos I know they,d be right up your street Kev - Wilson Pickett - (Artist Of The Week)
