  1. Cajun Hart is a bit that way inclined...
  2. absolute nonsense - people travel all over the country to hear Butch - and he's only got five letters in his name.
  3. Manship £100 Tim Brown £100 Real World £75 - 80
  4. I've got a feeling it's a vinyl cutters special...
  5. I don't have this listed in the Carol Fran discog I have... except for the combined Cd released with loads of unreleased / alternate versions. Are you sure it's not from that CD?
  6. My opinion as well Andy, but it seems that many are now just attending 'big one off' events, leaving monthly allnighters to suffer with lower attendances. Instead of the monthly niter, more and more seem to prefer the current batch of soul nights. The consequences for the niter scene have yet to be seen fully, but I'm afraid it ain't looking good for those of us who want it to go beyond the next five - ten years.
  7. Ace Spectrum is a great record - just hammered into the ground by unimaginative DJs.
  8. Good one! Forgot all about that - will have to be next week though as it's end of the month.
  9. and Little Frank Timperleys finest export.
  10. Pete, I'm putting together a CD of 'this kind of stuff' for Pete French... I'll pop you a copy in the post as well.
  11. Got quite a few bits meself... depends on what you want to know really
  12. Hot Line issue is rere - most copies are single sided demos with the wrong side on. Gained a release on UK Action 45 as well.
  13. Already happening isn't it? Question is.... what happens when the returnees start 'fading away'?
  14. click edit on the first posting, then full edit in the box that appears... should be able to put the 'S' in then.
  15. language timothy!
  16. So what are your thoughts? With the added pressure of dwindling attendances due to people leaving the scene through ill health/passing away, Later licencing for bars so more flexble hours for Soul nights, Promoters going up against each other at weekends.... 4 nighters one week, none the next... Do you see there being a niter scene in 5, 10 or 15 years?
  17. At the same time:
  18. Their the two that I was thinking of for S.O.N.
  19. I can see a steady decline in Niters over the next few years for the following reasons: Later licences mean that people are more likely to stay in a 'Soul night' that runs until 3.30+ than scooch off to the 'local' niter... especialy if the designated driver has taken advantage of the later bar times... Attendees are getting older and many are 'crashing and burning' around the 5 o'clock point, so many will start to go to events that start earlier so that they get their moneys worth before bailing out at 4.30.
  20. Theres Soul nights that book all of the current Niter DJs... Events like Soul or Nothing, Groovey Grooves and Piercebridge have utilised DJs who I would consider to be established 'Niter' DJs Soul Sam, Mick H, Andy Dyson, Mark Bicknell, Dean Anderson all spring to mind as being more commonly known as 'Niter DJs' but have had a fair few 'Soul Night' bookings recently. Years ago you would have HAD to attend a niter to listen to the sounds that were getting played by these DJs
  21. soul night djs tend to be local - niter djs tend to go further afield... i.m.o.
  22. Not noticed a problem with pissed up idiots.... But have noticed a slight drop in attendances to nighters since theres been a higher number of Soul nights utilising 'Niter' DJs.
  23. Must say though - Satisfaction Guaranteed by Harold Melvin and The Bluenotes is one of the greatest records ever made i.m.o. - Teddy P could belt it out somewhat....
  24. the right kind obviously
  25. Yep, but then again you don't hear many 'Supremes', 'Rare Earth' or 'Jackson 5' tracks played at Northern dos either.
