Guest Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 I would like someone to arrange an all-nighter playing stuff like I've posted below. A whole night of it please. I look forward to hearing from you https://youtu.be/kqU_agFgy60
Dave Pinch Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 i`m sure theres already niters playin stuff like that ...dont think i could put up with it all night tho.....nowt like a bit of variation dave
Winnie :-) Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 What would you call it, "The Allnighter From Hell"? plastic sandals and wedge haircut optional? Karen, I'm just listening to the CD Dave sent me, really enjoying it, but a whole night of it? The flyer would have to be very specific and IMO couldn't include the word northern. The Milton Floyd track you've put up, fits to me, but you have to bear in mind my ears are completely uneducated to this sort of stuff
bri pinch Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 i could do it for about a half hour, then i think it could be downhill from there bri pinch
Simsy Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 A whole night of it please. And for the following dayer - be locked in a box with an insurance salesman? "mid term, life, water damage with the optional death & dismemberment plan" ...
Amsterdam Russ Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 (edited) Love it. What an absolute belter - of a tune! Edited July 22, 2011 by rigilbert
bri pinch Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 what... an alnighter of this stuff...or being locked in a box with an insurance salesman bri pinch
Guest Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 Now now everyone... this is the best music ever I've been BORN AGAIN!
Geeselad Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 there always opportunity for variety even in a sub genre like funky northern, perhaps a night of this kind of sound would be plausible, but I think it would take a while to build a litle scene around it before anyone would want to venture into nighter territory.
Guest Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 I wonder if there's nights out there already that I don't know about.
Pete S Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 Now now everyone... this is the best music ever I've been BORN AGAIN! As a tone-deaf lunatic
Geeselad Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 I wonder if there's nights out there already that I don't know about. Plenty of nights that feature this style, not sure if anyone would claim to play just funky northern, its a risk for any promoter to stick there neck out by pinning it down to just one style. Most of the more progressive nights advertise a variety of styles will by played throughout the night.

Guest Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 As a tone-deaf lunatic Peter, how rude! Thanks Billy, I'll go look at their website.
Winnie :-) Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 Peter, how rude! Thanks Billy, I'll go look at their website. Keb used to do funk nights in London, not sure if he still does, Madam JoJo's I think it was.
Jnixon Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 Keb used to do funk nights in London, not sure if he still does, Madam JoJo's I think it was. not for a year or so. 'if you dont like 50s you can f*ck off' is now his strap line. Snowboy took over his friday night slot so more funk, boogaloo, latin, mambo, rnb now.
Guest Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 Murderous tune I now know all the words I've played it so much
Simsy Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 I now know all the words I've played it so much So erm you gonna change your name to 'TheFunkGirl' then..?
Geeselad Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 (edited) not for a year or so. 'if you dont like 50s you can f*ck off' is now his strap line.

Marc Forrest Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 cheers Karen, good 45 and you can easily pick it up on ebay for a around 40 USD. As has already been said, a lot of venues play sounds like this these days. The record in question I must admit doesnt sound any good played out loud at a big room event. Have it myself , never ever played it out, then I heard it last year at the Hamburg Soul Weeekender boat trip (maybe John Weston or Brett Franklin playing it?) and it sounded brilliant, next time I heard it played out was at the European Manchester Soul Weekender and it didnt do anything (not only not for me)...a case of "play at home only" maybe just like that ace Nancy Lee 45 "No Words For Love" MoDo. Awesome record too but sounds dreadful via loud speakers... Is it just me ?
Guest Brett F Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 Hi Marc, must have been John because i ain't got it !!, I like it but as for a night of it, well that would be just too much up- tempo for me, i enjoy the funk edged tunes but like a good meal i'd use it as seasoning in a set....If you sorta' know what i mean... See you this October mate. Brett
