Guest Bogue Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 Love the "Protect your records" one From reading past threads there are a good few who wish they had heeded that advice !
Mattfox Posted March 31, 2008 Author Posted March 31, 2008 Love the "Protect your records" one From reading past threads there are a good few who wish they had heeded that advice ! "Protect your records" is funny !!! but this one is really soulful...
Tommy1 Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 Here are the top 5 Oslo Soul Experience flyers. All of them are made by Daniela Winck, a very nice girl from Berlin!
Mattfox Posted April 2, 2008 Author Posted April 2, 2008 (edited) monthly (us) soul music publication by marc taylor entitled "A Touch of Classic Soul: The Music You Love from Back in the Day." This publication features interviews and profiles on African-American artists whose commercial prime ranged from the 1950s through the 1980s. nice artwork as well... Edited April 2, 2008 by matt fox
Guest luis Posted April 4, 2008 Posted April 4, 2008 Since a couple of months I'm doin' grafics for our parties.. trying to make it simple and in a old school style..
Dave Thorley Posted April 4, 2008 Posted April 4, 2008 (edited) This is a 'old school' style one a local german artist did for Malayka last year Edited April 4, 2008 by Dave Thorley
Guest luis Posted April 4, 2008 Posted April 4, 2008 This is a 'old school' style one a local german artist did for Malayka last year this is very nice
Dave Thorley Posted April 4, 2008 Posted April 4, 2008 this is very nice The guy is a cartoon artist in Bamberg.
Guest Bogue Posted April 4, 2008 Posted April 4, 2008 Looking at these & others i have seen on the net, i have to say i think our european buddies have the edge on stylish flyers
Roger Williams Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 The flyers that James Trouble has produced for his events take some beating, I can't think of any better ones I've seen.
Mark B Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 the ones that Jamie & Ritch had done for their leeds do's the one with the miners on was the best. mark

I understand why people make the flyers like that -- they look good -- but only because the original art looks good. I would be interested in seeing flyers where original design / art made them good. For example, there are lots of galleries of Rock music flyers and they look good becaues of the artists who made them, not because they stole a bunch of album covers. 1

For example, there are lots of galleries of Rock music flyers and they look good becaues of the artists who made them, not because they stole a bunch of album covers. also, if I were to make a flyer, I would also steal an album cover or a photo (just like I did on my website), but that's because I'm not an artist ... I wouldn't want to be recognized for doing it.
Guest mel brat Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 I know bloods thicker than water but my kid bros offering promoting this Fridays Peterborough DKOF takes some beating.... https://www.soul-source.co.uk/rare-northern...-fish-april-4th That's fabulous! The Jackey Beavers tune is one of my faves. (Love their offhand Northern accents too!) :lol:

I agree with you, though I think the point of this actual thread being started was self-promotion by the thread starter, he did the same on EMS recently, it's just a big plug for his flyer designer/designs.
Guest Matt Male Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 The flyers that James Trouble has produced for his events take some beating, I can't think of any better ones I've seen. I used to love the Scenesville flyers. I tried to collect them all but gave up. Janine Snow told me she had the full collection once i think. For me they were the first of the glossy professional looking flyers at venues. Maybe Nick Brown has a full set?
Mike Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 I used to love the Scenesville flyers. I tried to collect them all but gave up. Janine Snow told me she had the full collection once i think. For me they were the first of the glossy professional looking flyers at venues. Maybe Nick Brown has a full set? scenesville sprung to my mind as well heres the last one (?) from the 3000+ old flyers still on here in past flyer gallery https://www.soul-source.co.uk/Soul-So...lery-cat11.html
mischief Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 I always think the Bin man from Wales his flyers take some beatin... https://www.soul-source.co.uk/VSC-Aug...image43486.html I made the soul mini bus one he done in the past...
mischief Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 Here you go Check out his flyers all top draw and differnt from the normal soul artist ones... https://www.soul-source.co.uk/gallery-user1572.html
Mike Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 this current series deserves a shout though need to see them out in the real world as they are cut to size and the paper used does actually make them look and feel almost like the real deal
Jumpinjoan Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 Have to say Mike, the one's for the Drunken Monkey - 'Rare Soul Violence' - were really great. Also love this one - pretty sure it was a flyer, not sure where for though.
Winsford Soul Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 let's post the best soul, jazz or funk flyers 'n' posters or video/vinyl/cd artwork ever!!! from all decades!!! our own archive of great & (maybe) lost designs...by the way check this fantastic website of soulful | designs https://soulfuldesigns.blogspot.com they got soul & will do awesome artwork for your own partys or vinyl/cd releases!!! great stuff!!! cheers m. now i will dig for some nice & soulful artwork Best ones i ever seen was those from the Cricketer nighters in Wigan late 80,s early 90,s post card size one was a reproduction poster of when Betty Wright was live at Wigan another was of a little black kid in a ghetto with no shoes on. R.E Gil Scott Heron the Bottle. The only other one i can remember was a old cricketer with a bat in hand. I,m sure someone on here will have scans available. Steve
Guest Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 I know this is not flyers, but a friend linked me this. Wonderful artwork all the same. https://crossedcombs.typepad.com/recordenvelope/
Nick Soule Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 The flyers for the Chicago nighters are always pretty nice, I think. I also love the Emerald City Soul Club Flyers.
Andreas Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 I think the best flyer we ever had for a soul event in my hometown Dresden was this great work by a very good friend of mine from Berlin front - flip - the pattern were the kittens
boba Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 I think the best flyer we ever had for a soul event in my hometown Dresden was this great work by a very good friend of mine from Berlin front - flip - the pattern were the kittens that is very well done and actually took artistic talent too!
boba Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 that is very well done and actually took artistic talent too! the woman on the left (Laurel Ross) was later in Silk on Nation by the way. The woman on the right was previously in the Parkettes on Ludix. The woman in the middle is Bernice Willis, who later had a record on Okeh. Just FYI.
Iancsloft Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 my personal favs are the ones Johnny Beggs gave out in the 90,s The Northern Cowboy flyers i think they where promoting the Bear Every flyer was a laugh great stuff.....
shute Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 my personal favs are the ones Johnny Beggs gave out in the 90,s The Northern Cowboy flyers i think they where promoting the Bear Every flyer was a laugh great stuff..... Still have a few of these ones somewhere, will try and dig them out, great laugh, was when John Beggs and Duncan Pollard ran the Bear after Chris Savory, Dave Bell and Nick Marshell
Guest posstot Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 scenesville sprung to my mind as well heres the last one (?) from the 3000+ old flyers still on here in past flyer gallery https://www.soul-source.co.uk/Soul-So...lery-cat11.html THAT'S THE WINNER RIGHT THERE!!

I dont know if I'm right or wrong here, but isn't a 'great flyer' one that very clearly shouts out the crucial information that the promotor is trying to get across about whatever they're promoting?.. I've seen some, with stunning artwork but they're so full of eye catching detail that this detracts from the message the promotor is trying to get across. my 'greatest ever attempt at a soul flyer is still under construction' - look out for the Bury anniversary flyer later this year..

BlueWail Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 Here you go Check out his flyers all top draw and differnt from the normal soul artist ones... https://www.soul-source.co.uk/gallery-user1572.html I concur i like the SVC flyers so much.ive got two framed and have them hanging in my downstairs bog
