THIS IS FOR THE DJ'S - BOOTS OR ORIGINALS  

  1. 1. Frank Wilson

    • Its a classic example of quality northern soul. A timeless master piece
      206
    • Its all hype & little substance. Wasn't very good in the first place, then it got overplayed.

    • I prefer to sit on the fence, my opinions don't count

Eh? Merseyside by an unfortunate accident of birth, London by choice.

Why?

Don't say we know each other.. I did used to live in Latchford for a bit. Might have met at Mr Smiths Hogey wagon.

Well I used to do the Soul Train at Smiths on a Wednesday, so possibly. :ohmy:

I played there too!

With Alex and Ray. Who the heck are you then?

fair enough. however, there is a search facility that enables you to read the 1000's of posts on this subject. You wouldn't have to read them all as the first 8 cover all the opinions and the rest are just repeated.

I've been on here 2 years and I can't find threads most of the time.

Why not just let it flow anyway, whats wrong if a subject gets repeated, who is it actually bothering? Not the readers I wouldn't have thought.

p.s. I agree with Hubert.

Barry is my name Tony.

I'll play anything from Northern to House and most black music era's between, apart from Rap and R&B as it goes, although I am having to take it on the neck a bit at present on here I am not the plant that certain members may think.

Without sounding rude Barry, you wouldn't be DJ'ing at a traditional allnighter so the bootleg vs original isn't really relevant, I doubt if anyone would bother if you dropped in a Goldmine 7 among your house stuff, just as no one cared that Stuart Maconie's radio 2 Northern programmes were all from CD

Good clue.

And would I be right in saying that despite the fact you wanted to smack him in the mouth the reason you didn't is because he's got a heck of a high kick?

I have a half decent collection that has took 25 years + to build up and I've been a working class lad all the way, no fancy job or wages to talk of, so what I've got I've done without food and fags for on occassion.

I've also got boots, 2nd pressings, re-issues etc as there is no way on Gods earth I'll ever have the money for a Del- Larks and the like.

Bobbins mate.

Why must this class thing always be dragged into the NS equation? I think things have moved on from pit ponies, candles, ear muffs & bicycle clips. It's a fact that most of the 'waged' masses earn far more than your average middle class, university educated, office bound muppet. The NS scene is rather like the English language itself, its UK devotees are no longer the proprietors of their own 'scene', thanks be to Internet, blessed be Its name forever. Just as English is spoken from Vanuatu to Bognor, the NS scene is now a truly international 'scene' & therefore no longer prey to this stifling 'I'm just a working class kid' claptrap. And anyway, in Blair's Britain, there's so such thing as a 'working class', is there? ... :ohmy:

PS - originals only, be they 45s or 33s, UK or US...

Always personally enjoy this topic, still think it's up to the promotor of the club, as a dj i would always do what was required by the promotor as a matter of respect, i've played at clubs where it's original vinyl only & have duly done so but i've also played at dos where they're not bothered about original vinyl only, both have worked out well.

It's a big scene full of differing views, it's quite simple if you want originals only go to one of those clubs & if you're not bothered about the originals thing go to a club that has this policy & if you're like me quite happy as long as your hearing good tunes go to both.

That's because you don't have my magical powers :ohmy:

I think Mr H Street should be praised for bringing the expression "Bobbins" to prominence on this forum :shades:

Of course I agree, and most of the time you do a fine job. I'm just not keen on the thread closing thats all.

Originals only!, an exexption made say for legitimate vinyl releases of previous unreleased tracks i.e Kent 45's, and bollocks to the "It's What in the Groove Counts" apologists, I don't want to travel a couple of hundred mile to hear poor quality vinyl carvers lookilikes, or as occurred in the past, acetates cut from a tape that end only to launch into the next track on the source tape. If Berry Gordy thought his motto was being used to justify bootlegging and sharp practice, he'd send some very large blokes round to help change your mind.

So what do you play Mr. Hubert Street, if that is your name?

I've just seen on the other topic, Barry I presume

Oy he's not me..Im me :ohmy:

It's not often I agree with you Pete :) but entirely behind you and Hubert on this one.

This is the first time I've read through a debate on vinyl versus whatever on here.

If some people find it repetative then why read it, let alone join in.

I can certainly vouch for that Barry. You are one of the best guys I've ever met on the Scene! Hope all is well with OHS.

I think it's ok to play boots as long as they have a seven inch stiletto heel.

Hope this works, there are a few dj's on soul source so if they all answer the poll, we will see how the DJ's really feel... and then maybe we will see the truth about all this... :lol:

Thing is you can vote and not leave your name so please be honest :)

Original vinyl us and uk issues only thats it :D
