    Just found an old R Soul magazine which i used to buy at The Wilton All -nighter. I,ve not seen this for years, and i pissed myself, really clever and really funny. The one i found was issue no8, which featured - Things you didnt know about Richard Dimebar - When Roger met Jenny (in depth report on Roger Banks wedding) - Full, Bizarre and true story regarding The Doberman Pincher Twins - Unsolved mystery, The hunt for Kev Robots -Sex scandal involving Andy Brix - Which one are you quiz, Deon Anderson or Little John -Top Doncaster DJ Dave Sausage mad scientist shock story- Sam Soul dating the worlds oldest living corpse Dame Barbara Cartland - Nottingham DJ Robert Smith found in a block of ice - John Ovenchip selling a genuine imitation Wigan Casino Brick - Togetherness , back in time, Northern soul like it used to be 5 million years ago. Brilliant piss take of people we all know and some who are sadly no longer with us. Can anyone throw some light who used to write and get this brilliant mag out to the all nighters.

    I really cant understand why we are discussing an orchestra playing northern covers in front of a div audience, and we really should thank Maconie and the organisers for bring much needed attention to the northern scene. Because without them the whole circus would just die. Well i for one would say LET IT DIE, because none of this isnt what i signed up for in 1976 and have devoted a bulk of my life and money to. There are maybe 10% of nights worth going to and the rest are shit, full of divs which events like the orchestra are bringing in. So let it die, the records will continue and few nights will continue, but the scene as a whole is rubbish with nothing to link it to the people i knew and could relate to.

    The person i first heard play Domino out and about was Frank Dewhirst at the Central Leeds. Always used to go down well

    If someone had stuck a camera in your face at the Casino, you would have rightly received a warning and then a smack on the nose. Only later did this become the norm. Even now i will anyone with a camera to go away.

    At last a true rarity up for auction. I know its an oldie now, but it really is one of my all time top records. You very rarely hear it out and has always been a super rare record to collect. Must go for mega bucks on Johns site. Any ideas what it might achieve

    I understand that this site is called Soul Source, and there we have clue. I know iam in a minority with this but why are we discussing the BBC concert orchestra on this site. It has really has baffled me how we can rave about an orchestra which has about as much soul as my big toe. I may be blinkered but i did not hitch up and down the country in 1976/1977 and follow the scene ever since to listen to listen to The BBC orchestra play covers of the music which changed my life for ever. I always said the scene owes me nothing, but i owe it everything. Please get a grip.

    This is currently on Tim Browns auction, and if i had not sold up some years ago, would have definitely been in my box tonight. I have very rarely heard this played, and my only recollection of it being played was at an early lifeline. Is this correct, has it been played regularly been played and who has pushed this at nighters/nights. Brilliant record - Thank god i sold up.

    I know this sounds daft, regarding a venue we went to and records we listened to in the eighties, but this night was a breath of fresh air. At the end of the day it was a night of oldies, but the majority were oldies that you just dont hear any more, and the old place still had that magic atmosphere. It was great to see friends and faces from the past who you just do not seem to bump into any more (Derek Greenhoff- knows more in his little finger than most of us will ever know about records). And to see DJ,s who could actually put a set together- Keb, Butch and Guy the pick for me, with Keb just edging it. I had forgot just how polished a DJ he was-Perfect set with humour. Without travelling long distances iam afraid it is not worth the effort getting ready and making the effort to go out. Same old same old, hammered oldies, full of divs and so called DJ,s who should not be allowed on the decks. Most could not put a set together for a 8 year olds birthday party(or maybe they could and be good at it). I think the scene for me is the worst its been for many a year, since The Wilton, Life Line, Thorne and Empty Bottles closed their doors iam afraid its become a waste land(only a few clubs still trying to push things forward). So a big thank you to the promoters for making this possible, and i hope it was a profitable night for all involved.

    So sad news. Knew Steve in the early days through my good mate Shaun Pawsey. Not seen Steve for many years but will always have fond memories of him. Lovely bloke and will be sadly missed. RIP Steve
