Well, I've been laid up for a week or so with the annual really bad chest infection which I get every year from the end of November to the beginning of December. Par for the course really. I think it's nature's way of telling me that I'm not 21 anymore and I really must start to take it easy.

Well, no chance of that LOL. With 10 brand new Backbeats albums coming out on 26/12/11 (Boxing Day in the UK) and the Philadelphia International 40th Anniversary campaign launching in January with 'Philadelphia International: The Re-Edits' there's just no time to be ill.

Plus I had to break-in a new laptop and somehow hope that everything transferred OK. For me such things are a major headache. So far, so good. It looks like I've managed to crank out this show via the new machine.

Which is just as well as it's a killer! Took me 48 hours to work this one out Folks. Naturally it's un-missable........

Apologies to all for my no-show last week and many thanks to Al for filling in at short notice! I had a king hell zinger of a night up in Leeds a week last Friday with Paul Schofield @ Heritage @ Distrikt (next one on the 9th March) and woke up the next day with a king hell cold! So I was wiped out last week!

Anyway, I'm looking forward to the show this week. Naturally we have a mini tribute to Ms Houston (RIP) but otherwise it's back to the usual Sunday afternoon mix of old favourites, newies, killer re-edits, classic Northern and just great music, so hope you can join me and if you're up for some banter then join me in the Starpoint chatroom on the Starpoint homepage with the regular crew.

OK, I've just about recovered from 6 weeks of licensing hell in trying to get the Tom Moulton project out and suddenly it's my birthday again. Somehow I've made it to another year and the big day happens to coincide with this week's show, so I guess I'll be celebrating in the studio with the usual Original Mastercuts Sunday afternoon crowd!

It's a bit thin on the new release front for me at the moment but there's plenty of decent re-edits around plus plenty of old favourites, some classic and lesser played Northern, some beautiful 70's goodies and a mesmerizing last half-hour, so hope you tune in and if you're up for some banter then join me in the Starpoint chatroom on the Starpoint homepage with the regular crew.

Original Mastercuts on Starpoint Radio - Sunday 22nd April 2012

Alan with guest Tony Matthews

I'm joined this week by my very good friend and ex co-presenter Tony Matthews.

An engaging and entertaining character, Tony is probably best known for his headline DJ appearances at the Caister Soul Weekend. He's also a keen football fan (we support the same team - they wear blue) and is a long-serving officer in the Royal Naval Reserve.

We'll be playing the usual Sunday afternoon mixture of interesting and lesser-known soulful music, including some of Tony's all-time favourites. I'm sure we'll also be chatting about the upcoming Caister event in May, and maybe even covering one or two footy-related issues.

Be sure to listen in - www.starpointradio.com - Sunday from 2pm to 4pm. It should be fun!

A massive big shout for everyone who made it to the Baltic Soul Weekender last weekend! Truly one of the biggest events in International Soul circles with 5000 of the friendliest people you could ever hope to meet, the best music, a brilliant vibe throughout and live acts to kill for! So special thanks to Dan, Nussim, Barbara, Andrew and the rest of the crew who make this event a reality. And shout outs to all the deejays who were on throughout the weekend. What a gig ay? Roll on Love Soul Ibiza and Grand Can coming later this year! Well done folks!

A massively busy time on the release front with the Philly Box Set out in 2 weeks yikes....note to self: I'd better get that Kenny Gamble interview edited-up this week. Also coming up - a double CD set of killer Gospel funk from Jewel records compiled by Dave Hill and Greg Belson, so watch out for "Holy Spirit" in 5 weeks.

And coming up on the show today? Some interesting new slants on some old records, some cracking new re-edits, some obscure killers from the 70's and the usual all-round trip around the last 40+ years of glorious Soul music. Hope you can join me!

Six Million Steps Presents The Original Mastercuts Show LIVE with Ian Dewhirst between 2.00-4.00pm on Sunday 6th May 2012 on everyone's favourite Soul station www.starpointradio.com.

Featuring......

I won't be here in 2 weeks as Copenhagen beckons myself and Paul Schofield for another cracking Uluvka Vodka party which means I'll be in no state to host a radio show because that would be highly unprofessional. So I'll try and figure it out with Al. We shall let you know.

Catch you @ 2.00pm today! Try and join the rest of the crowd in the Starpoint chatroom on the home page of the Starpoint website. Laters all......

Wow, 2 weeks in a row is a real rarity for me these days. However the patchy nature of my shows over the last couple of months means I'm making up for it now!

Besides it's Jubilee day on a long bank holiday weekend and this is a perfect way to gear up for the next 36 hours of partying!

We have the usual musical odyssey that carries us through the eras - everything from a couple of new releases, the best of the latest re-edits, some unbelievable slabs of incredible soul and the usual Sunday afternoon killers.

Come join the Sunday afternoon regulars us in the Starpoint chatroom on the home page of the Starpoint website!

Rain, rain, rain, rain.......can anyone guess what the theme of the show is this week LOL? I've been out 3 times this week and got drenched every time. The worst was on Thursday for a cruise and barbeque down the Thames when I not only got drenched but also got Garlic poisoning! That was some journey home that night......

Still at least I haven't been at any rain-drenched festivals so far this year thank God! The good news is that my Olympics album is finished and ready to go just in time for when the games start in 10 days whilst I'll be in Turkey recovering. So check out "Inspired! Blood, Soul, Sweat & Cheers" packed full of goodies and out on the 23/7/12!

Meanwhile we have a radio show to do........

OK, I'm back after a short break in Turkey and predictably it's raining LOL. Not to worry though as the Olympics got under way with a bang and we seem to be doing OK in the medals tally and my "Inspired! Blood, Soul, Sweat & Cheers" album is selling well, so all is good.

Great new albums are out from the Sunburst Band and Ferry Ultra & the Homeless Funkers both of which are featured today as well as some tasty new re-edits and remixes and the usual trawl through the eras, so hope you can join me LIVE from 2.00pm today.

Firstly, many apologies for not posting up the playlist and downloads for the previous shows. It's been a hellishly busy time just lately and I'm usually knackered when I finish work so more typing is like doing homework on an evening. I will remedy this in the next couple of days which should bring us nicely up-to-date again.

As always in August, it's a busy time what with Vintage @ Wilderness last week, Soul At The Pavilion (with Snowboy) in Southend next week and the Preston Vintage Guild Weekend on the 1st September with Richard Searling, Colin Curtis, Mark Grice and the rest of the North West gang. And then Love Soul Ibiza at the end of the month. Phew!

As per usual, this week we have some cool new release, some incredible new re-edits, some Vintage Northern Soul, some fantastic retro releases, some mellow sleazers and the usual trawl through the eras with nothing but the best Soul Music I can find.

Six Million Steps Presents The Original Mastercuts Show LIVE with Ian Dewhirst between 2.00-4.00pm on Sunday 19th August 2012 on everyone's favourite Soul station www.starpointradio.com.

OK, my first show back after an absence of 5 months due to moving home, crazy workload and other things. My heartfelt thanks go to Alan Champ who has maintained the show every week for the last 5 months and kept the brand going. Cheers Al. You’re a rock mate!

From this point forward I’ll be doing the last Sunday of every month. I wish it could be more but work demands are keeping me busy, so I now need 3 weeks to get a show together. It’s hard work!

But great work! On the show this week we’re highlighting some beautiful new remixes by John Morales, Ashley Beedle and 3 exclusives from the magnificent Mike Maurro. Add to that the usual Original Mastercuts selection of pure Soul killers and timeless classics and we have 2 hours of bliss. Hope you can join me! Plus rumour has it Alan and Carl and a couple of others will be down too, so it should be a full house!

Wow, these once a month shows are coming round fast - doesn’t seem a minute since 4 weeks ago! But then again, things have been busy. A big shout out to all the peeps I saw @ Prestatyn 2 weeks ago. Hopefully I’ll be seeing a load more people again @ the Ritz reunion in Manchester next Bank Holiday Sunday. Can’t wait! Shout outs to my old muckers Paul Schofield and Ralph Tee who luckily managed to miss the end result of my garlic poisoning on Thursday. For anyone who at Lancaster Gate tube who witnessed my amazing 15 foot projectile vomit, I heartily apologise. Also big apologies to the woman I crashed into when I fell down the stairs @ the Alexander O’Neal gig on Friday. I have no idea how I managed to hit every step on the way down but I have the bruises to prove it was nasty. So I’m kinda beat up this week. Fingers crossed I avoid any more calamities on the way to the studio!

 

Busy week next week too, with the 6 brand new Backbeats albums AND the Philadelphia International Tom Moulton Remixes Vinyl Edition out this Monday. It suddenly feels like Spring again!

 

On the show this week, we have a whole heap of exclusives including some previews of several brand new Tom Moulton remixes from the forthcoming Philly Re-Grooved Vol 3 which is the best one yet and some brand new remixes from Opolopo, DJ Colourzone and Ashley Beedle to name a few. Plus of course the usual odyssey through the last 5 decades of glorious Soul music with some killer songs for a lazy Sunday afternoon. And it’s all LIVE! So tune in, join the chatroom and we’ll have our own ‘lil party over 2 wonderful hours.

 

Six Million Steps Presents The Original Mastercuts Show LIVE with Ian Dewhirst between 2.00-4.00pm on Sunday 24th March 2013 on everyone’s favourite Soul station www.starpointradio.com.

Very sad news. I just heard that Vincent Montana Jr passed away today, right as I was putting my show together. By co-incidence I was programming a whole heap of the new Tom Moulton Philly Re-Grooved Vol 3 remixes, virtually all of which featured Vincent, so he was running all through the show anyway. This news adds a lot of poignancy to today’s show, so we’ll be running a Vincent Montana Jr tribute throughout the whole show as a mark of respect to one of the greatest arrangers in dance music history. He could play mean vibes too! RIP Vincent. We love you.
