Ashton Ukrainian Club

Another quality line up for our July 15th date at Ashton Ukrainian Club. We have a flavour of the fabulous Lifeline niter events, we welcome Andy Dyson and Chalky, two of the residents from an event, which definitely was a LIFELINE for the rare soul scene!! I'm sure Chalky can give us some background regards the ethos and history of the events, which kicked off at Sheridans in Dewsbury and boasted a stellar resident line up that also included Butch, Mick H, Cliff Steele.

Alan Coney one of the scene's characters from the North East, with an amazing collection will be making his debut at Ashton, along side Stockport's finest Simon "enthusiast" Ingham with a  non too shabby collection. As ever Sir Chris Churm and Phil Dunn complete what(we think) is an amazing line up!!

See you there!!!

First Request from me, please play this Andy !!

Just to emphasise the importance of BVAN during those unfortunate times of covid, and the actual respect held for all those involved in the "Sanity through Soul" sessions.....Loved every minute of those Absolute Superb "Shows", and can't wait to pay my  belated respect in person.......Whilst Having A Great Night Out!

Request number two from me

So looking forward to playing out at my favourite night out....even though I should be retired 

My shifts at work have kept me away most of this year so we better make it a good un.  Great to be alongside my good mates Andy and Al as well. Been some time since myself and Andy were on the same lineup.

Don't forget this one Chalky, such a great record!!

Well I've gotta say what a pleasure it'll be DJing alongside the Lifeline legends and double decking with my old pal (and dark horse) Alan Coney who hasn't been behind the decks for 18 years he tells me!! - so even more of a night for me 

As well as that we will be joined by the BVAN radio show regular Wilxy who is travelling up from the deep south west of England to be with us (much appreciated) which has sparked off a bit of a BVAN reunion to add to the fun.

No idea what will hit the decks from the playbox but it'll be an experience I'm going to enjoy - but I'm sure the Ukrainian Club  faithful will get what's written on the tin 

Yes deffo some memorable BVAN saturday nights on Radio King, when Pete's dulcet tones introduced the opening bars from Otis Clay's anthem "the only way was definitely up" Fast forward to 2023 and The Phoenix has risen from the ashes, sharing that BVAN ethos providing a quality saturday night for folk who like something a "little different" Couple that with a hefty slice of The much missed Lifeline niters and you have the perfect soulful recipe, no brainer really!!

Class class and more class and that’s just the tunes on this thread , can it get any better? always quality records at this venue , you’ve just gotta dance and if anyone would have and please play dolly gilmore sweet sweet baby , then my night would be complete

Another request this time for Stu WHOOOSH!!! bring this please Simon

Another that found favour on the legendary BVAN sessions courtesy of Simon Ingham, one hell of a double sider!!!

Well our July event at Ashton Ukrainian seems to have captured the imagination, with people looking forward to re-visiting those spine tingling sessions at Lifeline Niters and more recently the innovative BVAN sessions, during the time when actually being in a club setting and hearing and dancing to these vinyl pearls was no more than a pipedream.

This club has taken off, beyond our wildest dreams and has become a lot of peoples "must do" night out!! Saturday July 15th we're delighted to welcome Lifeline Residents Andy Dyson, Karl Chalky White as guest DJs Allan Coney will be making the long trip down the A1 to play his debut set(let's hope he's on his best behaviour lol)

Saturday July 15th is the date for your diary, the night runs 7pm-00.30 and just £5 pay on the door. We anticipate a busy night, judging by the feedback, so please arrive early, as seating and dancefloor space will be at a premium!!!
