Soulsmith

Taxi for Pete. Col

Heres another Fab Peps track that should get played out more. Its the flip to "My Love Looks Good On You" Col

Not heard it for sometime, but I'll go for "Scratchy"

Have to disagree with you a little there. When Stoke is busy you almost have to fight for a place on the dance floor. It wasn't like that on Saturday. There was loads of dance floor space. Stoke is still one of my favourite places though. Even on a relatively quiet night there is still an excellent buzz in there. Col.

Just looked at the photos from Stoke and was suprised how quiet it was. col

I'm shocked by that and sorry to hear it. Well not about being called Soulsmartarse, thats quite funny. Yes I've been around when some DJs have been yellow or red carded, but I doubt thats just a London thing. Surely that happens up north? I was recently speaking to a northern DJ/collector fairly recently about the scene down here and his view was that most people down south made an extra effort to get on because the scene was so small. Up north there are loads of dos on and you have loads of choice where to go, but down south there aren't. So if you fall out with somebody down south one week you've got an almost 50/50 chance that you're going to run into them next week. So there's more reason to be sociable. One of the worst incidents I've seen was at Prestatyn when 2 old soulies who had just been introduced by a mutual friend started a proper old row about football within 10 minutes. Col

Also seen said nutter get a slap at Boogaloo last year.

Recently seen: Dobie Gray - What a way to go & Frank Dell - He broke your game wide open both clear the floor at a local venue. Really odd.

Obviously time to sell it Dave. Not all bad news though, I happen to be in the market for one. Col

I'm speechless........Mr Grumpy has a wife?

One of the things that I object to is generalisation. Please be a lot more specific. Personally I think you are talking out your backside and will not be able to supply any facts to back up the above. Col.

Deviation!!! The subject was bones not boning. Col.

It has a few endearing features about it, but really doesn't do it for me. It if I was out & heard 4 or 5 tracks like this played back to back, I'd the know the evening was on a downer. Col.

The worlds first ever comedy gospel record. An absolute gem. Col.

The best thing about my copy is that big white A on that lovely green back ground..

Will do. Sort of know Tee anyway. Although my mate is going to be a tough act to follow! He's just played a couple of lovely Marvin tracks back to back. Col.

See what you think of this classic. Ok its a little bit left field & it contains the immortal lines "I'll show you how to donkey in a little short time, Just do what I tell you and we'll get along fine" It was recorded shortly before he fired his agent. Enjoy it. Col.

The show goes out Sunday night 7-9 DJ and all round top geezer is Jaybee. First 30 mins - which has just gone! is always soulful garage with the emphasis on soulful. Next 90 mins is soul https://realloveradio.moonfruit.com/

Good show......enjoyed it. Col.

Lost me there. Brilliant tune, but everybody has played this this all the time in the back bedroom fot the last 25 years. UNLESS its just me!

Cant answer that. I'm just a soul music lover. But I can tell you I was sitting on the edge of my seat, jaw wide open. It was awesome. Hate to admit it, but sometimes the BBC just hit spot on. They really put some effort into that documentary. Trevor Nelson, please take note.

Maybe due to legal reasons this guys wants to remain anon. He's certainly not seeking attention. We should respect that. Col.

Cheers for that Jim. Documentary was excellent, loads of rare footage & a few revelations. Good shout. I owe you. col.

Those 100 club anniv singles remind me of the 81 club.

Vic Reeves does northern karaoke?
