I just remember oldies being used to describe records from another era, recent or distant, as opposed to newies, whether 60s discoveries or out and out funk/disco releases around 75/76. There's a tape of Sam at St.Ives on Youtube, 1977, where he introduces Rosemary What Happened as a requested 'oldie'. I wouldn't attribute it to Wigan promoting itself...

Pointless topic - I did it last week with a podcast of records that aren't played out (much) anymore and before you could blink 3 or 4 people had started with the "I heard that out last week" thing so expect a lot of that! I"m still amazed that someone played "The Flasher" out though.

That's when it really started, I agree with you, me and the then current girlfriend started having these newies/oldies arguments because I wouldn't go to the fridays.

I don't mean this topic is pointless, I mean it's pointless because people will tell you that everything listed is played somewhere, defeating the object of what you're trying to say.

You misinterpreted what I was saying.

I went to a do and someone played The Flasher immediately followed by Woolly Bully ( spell check please !! )

I asked the 'DJ' why ? He said that someone had asked him for them - Had to be in his Box in order to play them - Why ?????

Well, off the scene (as in going out, not stopping collecting or listening) from 79 until early last year & in my 11 months back I've never once heard either of these classics, despite getting around more than a bit:

watch?v=jF4_fuETYIk&list=PL698AE67B313AE

watch?v=T-5fgIOKPog&list=PL698AE67B313AE

Aye, go on - tell me I've been going to the wrong places :wink:
