try Anglo; sure they had an L Allen on this weeks list.

Funnily i was saying (venting more-like) this very same thing on the drive up to Gloucester (didn't notice it myself at Goloucester but i spent all nite in room 2 apart from the last half hour DJing in main room) I put this down to several factors: 1) they're talking bollox; 2) they do think that they've heard it all and only want to hear their own new tunes (and once finished DJing leave); 3) it's just us getting upset over nothing and we ought get a grip; AND 4) the record sellers are usually somewhere else away from smaller, darker 'rare' room- and these people and the people who hang round records for sale are the people who want to hear new tunes, but they can't because due to no fault of their own they are elsewhere and can't leave their records (sometimes livelyhood). (this made a nice change at Gloucester where the reccord sellers were in the 2nd room.)

David, I'd have thought £60 - £75. I have a WD, i think the issue may be harder.

oh dear... ;-)

couldn't be arsed to read all the choices. sorry but it's all too much for me that sounds quite rude in the morning - wasn't meant to be, me eyes just can't take in all trhat small bunched up text (i'll vote Butch, if he's listed)

sorry;l i have read this about 5+ times now and i can't understand it. are you saying you wont go to allniter cos you don't get any seventies or funk?? or are you saying that you dont go to allniters cos there is seventies and funk?? you're post isa unclear - though i must admit more northern funk at the 100 Club would be good. and for me there is a definite divide between northern and rare soul. two different scenes running side by side. that'll never change and Rob Messr gets the northern angle all the time (at northern do's) IMO

i was thinking that too. though i think 2 of them for sale were the same one(?) theres an interview wih Cagel on youtube; says it was a local hit on the beach scene so may have been a few pressed up, though does seem to be very rare still.

i don't call it co-incidence that i have gone years not hearing 'Please Don't Go' and now i've heard it the last few time i've been out (as well as '..Dues') Not a bad thing at all, just an observation

£20.00

the original version was by someone called 'Loudermilk'(the guy that wrote it) in 1960

Thanks, Ali x

thanks Dave - it's that 'when' bit that could be the problem

brilliant record and i been wanting one for long time; it's tough for sure

great price Keith - you'll be giving away at any less!

you're new here aren't you...LOL

not for me either - but i was not suggesting that, i was just commenting on dj's that arent necessarily the same as scooter rally dj's

different type of DJ mate, they're talkin' proppa mod dj's

i though it was a bit more to be honest; certainly rarer than the philharomincs; mind you that doesn't mean it commands more, just thought it was more in the back of my mind for some reason

Being there, as I was, Saturday nite, I must say it was one of the best 6Ts niters I'd been to in over a year; I thoroughly enjoyed it both musically and socially. Many posters on here have painted a picture of too many non-soulies, which I have witnessed myself in the past, I think that it gives an untrue image of this past Saturdays attendance - which was no doubt low but by far from empty and the few non-soul people in there were having a good time and, most importantly, not annoying anyone (apart from some bloke, one of those nutter types you don't want to get on the bus/train; well luckily Butch got him LOL). But the numbers were low enough, for Ady to ask for comments. So my two pennith worth are... This was my first attendance for a while, this is for no reason apart from I spend 50% of my free time up north and those dates I am darn sarf it does fall right, up to no good or my travel companions are elsewhere. DJ's - although Joel started off quiet on Saturday, that must have been an early doors thing. He played two very good, enjoyable sets, some nice unknowns (to me). No problem with his recruitment at all. Unless you book a one-off out-of-retirement type DJ (which is limited and obviously short-lived); the guest DJ will not pull loads of punters - mini-bus at best (ok, 16 people is better than none) but there are far too many events on that people, particularly up north can catch most DJs and do not to need to travel far at all, especially to London. So the guest DJ does not come into it for me (unless they're crap lol) I was on the phone on Saturday and someone asked "who's the guest DJ's?" my reply "Don't know, I haven't looked. Its irrelevant - it's the 100 Club" And that to me is it - if there's Butch, Ady and Mick that's good enough; if there is a great guest then that's a bonus... Though I must agree with some and maybe different guest DJs are needed, just to keep it fresh for the people that do go, and a if they pull a few more in even better. The following are just meandering thoughts and only relevant if the 100 Club is in question, so please don't get upset anyone... LONDON - people wise it's been low for quite a while and being in the centre of London does make the 100 Club harder for people to travel to. For instance, I won't drive up on my own. Train travellers have to wait over 2 hours for the train's home to start. That and the escalating costs are not exactly a magnet for people to travel. AND could that be the crux. Martin pointed out it's the 6Ts R&S Society - not the 100 Club, though we all call the niter that of course. Could the event move to a more attainable club on the outskirts of London that would help travellers and the cost of travel? I love the 100 Club and always feel special going there (I just like getting lost with my mates LOL); but has the venue become more important than the event? I would rather go to another dark, dingy hole, with the same music and like-mined people, on the outskirts of town than not at all! Just a thought Or getting another smaller, same attitude club and hiring the 100 Club for the anniversaries. Just another thought. AND failing that, if making it bi-monthly or even quarterly is the way to go - sobeit. It would make it 1) even more special and 2) more affordable.... As for PROMOTION I am sure ADY that if you send me and others flyers we will put them out and about - even if you send a scanned flyer by email, I don't mind printing some out, to put out. Whatever Ady, you will me full support.

Billy & Clyde was very good; but Spencer Wiggins was fantastic - an instant dancer that lives up to the hype - worth the trip alone to get these two tracks...

i prefer TM, really just because i've heard EA too many times andf it's a nice change

I paird £50 or £60 for mine it is of course the same backing as El Anthony on LaCindy

true or myth - some Philips labels were put over the Bluerock ones??

I'm the Man.... err yeah for sure

T.B did Steve, years ago...he got his money back in the end
