45 Revolutions

So, I got a bit told off on Friday for not bigging up 45 Revolutions, however I would rather let the night speak for itself than over hype it as some do... So on that note here's a word or two from a satisfied customer-- Geoff Green---

"It was a relief to arrive at the Sudden Social Club for 45 Revolutions last Friday, we'd had a miserable journey that took ages and was very cold, but the music at the club made it all worthwhile.

In addition to Alan Massey and Tony Poff, the guest DJs were Dereck Higham and John Baggaley. As usual there were some great tunes played, some I knew but plenty new to me, just what I like.

In addition to Northern, Crossover and Modern a couple of ska records were played. Not the biggest fan of ska but the two played were very good in particular Queen Of The Minstrels (Cornel Campbell & The Eternals). On the soul side plenty of good'uns: The Tight Rope (King Solomon's Advisers): Love Went Away (The Objectives); I Couldn't Take It (Little Edith); Don't Give It Away (Isley Brothers); The Hardway (Gwen Kousar); New Lock on my Door (The Kampells); Hide And Seek (Lillian Dupree); That's The Way It Is (Sweet Three); Beware Beware (The Compliments); Hello Stranger (Elkie Brooks); Save Me (Julie Driscoll with Brian Auger & The Trinity); Love Is A 2 Way Street (?Revels); Put A Smile On Your Face (E.J. & The Echoes); If I Could Only Prove To You (3 Pieces); I Know Your Love Has Gone Away (The Drapers); You're After My Guy (Clara Ward); These Memories (Almeta Lattimore) and loads more goodies. Tony played 30 minutes of oldies at the end, great tunes but my pick was Darkest Days by Jackie Lee.

It was good to see a large number of people in, the word is obviously getting around. Nice to see many friends.

Thanks to all the DJs and the hard working lady behind the bar"

Thanks Geoff Green
