LOL Philly No Philly , I didn't notice any chinstrokers ...they seemed to be just enjoying the music for what it is , with no politics etc , I mean whats all that about , if they aren't gonna take it seriously - it'll never last !! .......Cheers Eddie
Ady Pountain Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 Fantastic! Thanks for the posting Eddie. It never hurts to smile when your listening to Soul Music. The Guy in the dungarees singing to Marvin Gaye was priceless. I feel young all over again, Cheers, Ady
Harry Crosby Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 Nice one bet butch was sweating with all them jumping around about six inches from the decks thats how to enjoy yourselves
Philly Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 No Philly , I didn't notice any chinstrokers ...they seemed to be just enjoying the music for what it is , with no politics etc , I mean whats all that about , if they aren't gonna take it seriously - it'll never last !! .......Cheers Eddie
Soulcarp Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 great to see like minded people enjoying the music they know how to have a great time regards johno
Anoraks Corner Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 I didn't notice any chinstrokers Don't be fooled by the fact that they all dance and enjoy themslelves with style and buckets full of enthusiasm...they also avidly collect vinyl and have great taste and knowledge! As Ady wrote it does make you feel young again...I even get that that feeling when attending their nighters! Most of the guys behind this (and the Manifesto Soul nights in Osaka) have lived in the UK often for one reason only...Northern Soul. Yes, some of them spent many months in the UK just to attend soul doos...and that is the case with the guy in dungarees. His name is Ryo and he is the main driving force behind that club...he even owns a pub in Kobe called, 'Bar Kenneth' named after Keb! Yes, some of them also fly over for the UK the weekenders (not a cheap thing to do) and you may have seen some of them winning the dance competitions?! Wanna see some more pics of Japan Soul nights of years gone by, I have a few pages dedicated too them on my website...have a look >>> HERE <<< Please note for the folk who may think NS is a flash in the pan in Japan...the Nude Restauarant Soul nights was celebrating its FIFTEENTH anniversary that night...15 years...how many UK Soul clubs can boast that?! Well worth a visit should you be lucky enough to visit these shores. 1

Well worth a visit should you be lucky enough to visit these shores. confirm RYO (guy in the dungarees) top bloke.As soon as he saw me he came over and gave me a big soul handshake. and everyone there was so friendly. I must have scared the editing man as i had my top off fairly rapidly as the place was dripping with sweat. The manager of the pub even asked me if i was allright and offered me a glass of water when i eventually sat down for a breather.

Thanks for that Dave , was only joking about Chinstrokers , sure they take it just as seriously as we do in Blighty , and judging by the amount of Deep Soul CD's and LP's that I've purchased from Japan , there must be a serious market for Soul music over there .Best wishes ,Eddie

Guest Dave Turner Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 Superb! It kinda takes ya back a good number of years. If not for nearly everone being Japanese this vid could have been very much UK early 70s No substitute for the exuberance and enthusiasm of youth to generate that magic word EXCITEMENT
Guest SteveC Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 (edited) Thanks for that Eddie. Thoroughly enjoyed the vid however I did cringe when Butch kicked off with the Del Larks and some dancers were so close to the decks - lol I'm sure Butch is versatile enough in the Japanese language to contend with that situation PS. I too would like to know what that alt version of cigarette ashes is all about. Edited November 23, 2009 by SteveC

Mal C Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 (edited) Love the video, some great energy there... something strikes me though, It must be strange closing your eyes to your favorite Northern sound, half pissed, you open them and your surrounded by young Japanese Dudes all with hats, dancing far far better then you ever could.. Obviously what it is to live in another country.. I must say I'd love to go to a Japanese Soul gig!! Not much use in Butch saying lets be having ya!! eh.... what a response for Frank Wilson... Mal.C.

Being a bit of a pedant here, Mal but I think FW was just added as the sountrack for the opening few minutes of the video clip rather than being played. Might be wrong and it doesn't matter one bit anyway - still a fantastic response to all tracks played.
Pete S Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 I hope the craze for wearing hats spreads over to the UK, I've had one for a couple of years but never worn it!
Simsy Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 Think it was " Suprise " it's a c/u I think .....Best,Eddie Soul Sam played that (uncovered) at Middleton. Think Mick H has it too.
Eddie Hubbard Posted November 26, 2009 Author Posted November 26, 2009 Soul Sam played that (uncovered) at Middleton. Think Mick H has it too. Yeah Simsy ,The Tiaras on Op -Art as mentioned by Dave Fynn earlier on in the thread , Best wishes ,Eddie
Guest jkw Posted November 27, 2009 Posted November 27, 2009 Thanks Eddie & Dave for The Tiaras info anyone got a label scan......
Guest ronaldis Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 Fantastic isn't it Gilly , any idea what that record is with the same backing as Cigarette Ashes is ? Best wishes ,Eddie Anyone actually know what its called per chance, sounds great would'nt mind a download The video itself is superb imo, the Japenese there probably had no clue about the words to the songs but they sure knew the beat, i am one of the people who placed a comment on there months ago, i have been to Japan with a previous compnay i worked for well over 18 years ago, its a shame it was not the last few years as iwould have loved it.
Dean Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 Not much use in Butch saying lets be having ya!! eh.... what a response for Frank Wilson... Mal.C. Was going to try to be clever and put "Let's be having you!" into a English / Japanese translation site. For any global djs it's \のにあなたを持っていていさせてください Glad to be of help
Mark Jones Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 Bloody hell I want some sushi soul! Great to see younger people into the music....Enjoyed the Oz nationals when I went too when there was a good young contingent there, and as much as I hate to admit it, it does make a difference!
Anoraks Corner Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 Was going to try to be clever and put "Let's be having you!" into a English / Japanese translation site.
