phatspinner Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 Ian Levine appeared on this show this evening and spoke highly of the contributors to this forum Should you wish to hear what he had to say then the show is available on the Internet "listen Again" He comes in about half way through the show. I must admit as a new member I had no axe to grind either way in the great Levine debate but after listening to him for the last hour I can now see why he engenders such strong feelings. After a "how great I am, How I discovered every great northern record and everything else after me is rubbish" speech he then proceeds to take up the rest of the show with a massive plug for his new album, a slagging off of Soul Source and proceeds to interrupt Mary whenever she tries to get a word in edgeways... I now know why..... Phatspinner Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

The one record he most definatley made is the one for using "I" or "ME" the most times in any interview.. How did Mary put up with him for all that time especially when he kept butting in I had to laugh when he said to Mary about one of his new tracks "Don't you think that just screams Northern Soul" and all she could say was "um mmm".

Guest Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 (edited) No offence Mossy but I would rather stay out of this one mate, i never contribute to threads on here that don't interest me or one's which have very little importance to me,(slight contridiction as i'm posting this reply...lol) this and the Album debate certainly have no interest to me so like all good Cockroches i'll cruel back under my stone on this one if it's all the same to you, often better to ignore such things as Little Anthony once said 'I'm On The Outside Looking In' which is very much the case here, which is reference to some people leaving the party many years ago who's contribution was without question huge and very important to the scene's history, I would like to think that the music is King and no one else.

I am 53 this year, around the same age as Ian, however I have to say that my parents didn't own a car, we went everywhere by train, bus or walked. At 16 Florida wasn't even a dream, it was impossible. If the guy made the most of his circumstances, then fair play, but he should remember that not all have had that chance in life.

Guest Matt Male Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 (edited) Special mention of The Carstairs for Pete Smith I must admit i find the whole Levine thing just funny these days. I met Ian a few times and he was always a nice enough bloke, very nervous almost. I remember when he came back on the scene about ten or so years ago and he was at Stoke just picking huge piles of records out of boxes and passing them to an aide for purchase, the record bar was very aware of him and Butch and Tim Ashebende were joking with him and commenting to him that he'd lost weight, no animosity. This was before the Crossfire/Rocket debacle which caused him real problems and was probably the reason he cleared off again. I have no feelings either way towards Ian, i don't him well enough, but i think the scene is more interesting for these characters and i take my hat off to anyone who promotes successful venues past or present.

Well said Roger, i totally agree. I dont see his new album as going forwards in the Soul Scene, its just looking back. As i see it Frank Popp with Hip Teen got it right for the scene going forward.

Guest James Trouble Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 I'm not really bothered, but just stuck it on out of interest while I was having a bath this morning, that Mary Fox seems a nice lady and played some nice tunes. I think alot of what Ian Levine said would probably be right on, apart from the glaring fact that this new album of his is rubbish. BUT imagine if it was amazing, powerful, really good, power house northern, much like what Desco and Daptone did and are doing with their stuff, and everyone was still slagging it off. Then he would have a point, but he doesn't. It's rubbish, and people are hating on it because it is rubbish and he's obviously a bit mad and deluded, I feel a bit sorry for him. I can guarantee that if you do as he suggests and play this new "northern soul 2007" to anyone in their teens or early 20s and tell them this is northern soul, they will have a little chuckle at because it sounds like a Take That tune or Boy Zone from the early 90s, and they'll go away thinking northern soul is shite. It's an irrelevent album to everyone, because it's basically rubbish, so it should be ignored, but obviously it can't because it says "northern soul 2007" on the front of it, and is being pushed in everyone's faces. But IF it wasn't rubbish and it was really good, he might have a point. But he doesn't and it's a bit sad. The cockroach thing is funny. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest James Trouble Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 (edited) Maybe Ian Levine should listen to a couple of Sharon Jones tunes to put "northern soul 2007" into perspective... >>Sharon Jones "What Condition.." >>Sharon Jones "How Long..."

Phild Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 Before his little "disciples" come on here to attack us "roaches", I reiterate nothing against the guy personally, he just needs to change the (Carstairs) record I suppose because I said I liked his stuff and said it had a right to be called Northern Soul, you maybe label me as a Levine disciple? Well I'm not. And I certainly don't agree with the way IL launched into folks the way he did on the radio show. But then again I believe in turning the other cheek. But that's because I'm actually a disciple of a different jewish bloke - one who was crucified 2000 years ago and whose entry into m y life changed everything for me. However, that said, I can understand the frustration that makes him react the way he does. He creates something that he, and indeed many others, feel is valid work. Gives artists who would otherwise never be heard a chance to perform again (just like he did with Motorcity). And all he gets is slagged off for it. The Flirtations, Jimmy James etc etc. Who else would give them the opportunity to have their voices heard again? Like I say I understand the frustration - he's an emotional bloke, but personally don't agree with how he handles it. Phil Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
