Weekend Bits From Up North Wales/NW

Quick Word on Broughton Wings Soul Nite.

First time visit to this venue and a great nite. Held in the British

Aerospace social club at Broughton near Chester, nite was a well welcomed

change from the normal format of events. The club itself is a very plush

venue that the words social club just doesnt do justice. Because of world

events, there was a tightening of security but this was hardly noticable.

Sounds wise, well few plays below but were talking about across the board

feel here with all eras covered and not just the token 60s 45 as some "open

minded " venues do, which fitted in perfectly with the venue and the crowd.

As said just a quick word, but if youre after a classy nite out with some

well classy soul this well could be your thing. Most definitely be returning

and recommended.

Couple of top plays from the nite from DJs

Steve Thomas (Holyhead) first main spot

Charles Johnson - Never had a love so good - Alston

Soul Communicators - Those Lonely Nights - Fee Bee

Jive Fyfe - If I had a Chance - Decca

Dells - Thinking About You - Cadet

Bob Hinsley Top 3 plays from the nite

Bobby Rich - Theres A Girl Somewhere For me- Sambea

Charisma Band - Aint Nothing Like Your Love- Buddah

Vivian Carrol - Oh Yeah Yeah Yeah - Merleen

Brian Ellis was on next but by that time was well in to enjoyment mood and forgot to ask plus memory let me down

Soul Sam finished the nite with as always some great stuff

Played a couple of Detroit 60s one offs - which sounded good on first hear

one dodgy recollection was -

Had a quick visual at one and tried comitting it to memory ! result was

Marget Lettin - love will find a way - genloro

but even now looking at it doesnt seem right at all, still its as good as it

gets, treat it as a anagram challenge

the other which after a determined effort to remember all 3 of us could come up

with was errr..

it had the word angel in.

Friday saw monthly local soul nite at Llandudno Rugby Club,
