A few from me. Don't think they've been posted yet. Some from the playbox & some off the shelves.

Many thanks for the information. Anyone got a spare 45 issue at a reasonable price? Best Kev

Fantastic ballad one the flip. Kev

Hi I came across this lovely beat ballad the other day Joe Hinton 'Don't tell her the truth' The only info I've got at the moment is a release on Abc dunhill 1973 Duke/Peacock oldies. Did this get an earlier release/album track? If anyone has a copy for sale I'd be interested. Please Pm me. Thanks Kev

Now with reductions. Still some nice tunes. Worth a look. Cheers Kev

I've got the Ichiban album with this version on. I prefer it to both Otis Clay's & Barbara Carr's versions. Stomping Clarence Carter as you'd expect. If you buy it and don't like it I'll take it off your hands as long as its cheap. Best Kev

Also recorded on Event records. Kev

Not sure about the Fat back connection but they were on Fatback records same as Gerry & Paul 'The Catwalk' who I have been told were original Fatback. My Sweet Baby is a regular play for me also Ady has been playing this early doors down the 100club for a while now. THE PUZZLES - MY SWEET BABY - Kev

Hi all I'm looking for this one Joe Douglas-Crazy Things-Playhouse. I'm not desperate so no silly prices please-It must be original and in good, fine condition. Would prefer a promo. Thanks for looking and hope youcan help. Best Kev

Thanks Richard that's cleared that up. Kev

Can someone tell me which copy this is as I've heard there were west coast and east coast copies. This is a different design to the w/d I used to have years ago. Thanks Kev

Not quite true.....when I first moved to London 86/87and began missing my Northern Soul fix I ran a club in Clapham Common-Upstairs at the Alexandra...The main dj's were Keb, Ady, Guy, Val, Roger, Ian Clarke, Roger Banks, Ion, Rob Marriott, Mike Atherton etc.... to name a few......It was where I first met Tony Smith, Russ Vickers, Jill, Ion, Kenny, Gavin Page, John Buck, Terry Jones, Paul Sadot, Mark Houghton... too many to mention.....I've also lost count of how many people still tell me it was their first proper Northern soul club experience and it was what made them stick to the scene and head up to the 100club and check out RSG and other places around. We had a ball down there for quite a few years. I know its a long time ago and we were all a lot younger (Ian D I didn't know you were 90yrs old):-) but this was well previous to Scensesville and the Valatone etc. We used to send people to the 100club to gain the fuller experience. The music we turned over down there was unbelievable..the passion was great. I'd say the only soul nights in London at the moment kicking it on the 60's side are Boogaloo where Warren allows the djs to play what they want and Solid Hit where the djs have rare collections. (I can't really comment on places I've not visited yet so not missing out anywhere on purpose) Other places I go can be a bit antisceptic but they are slowly listening and changing some of the promoters are young and newish to it all.) Others play safe but these places need time to get it right. Maybe they will. Hopefully they will. Its the same with the 100club. I've talked to lots of first timers at the 100club recently, soulies & not so much soulies. Ok a few are arsy but most of them are amazed. They've never experienced anything like it, they need a bit of coaching in etiquette but they get it in a strange way...and nevermind that I can find some of the 100club regulars can be arsy sometimes. A lot of the 'new bloods' as you call them are really nice people-don't judge a book too much by it's cover. They might not have the history/baggage that older members have but it doesn't mean it's not a special night out for them. A lot of them are beaming when they leave but somehow don't find their way back on a regular basis because they haven't come to this through the 'normal' channels of family or friends but usually just out of being inquisitive. I remember taking quite a few young mods under my wing so to speak in the 80's. Talking to them and helping them feel comfortable and understand it all. You can tell who feels uncomfortable by just keeping your eyes open-ask Mark Freeman. There's been problems with arrogant buggers who don't quite get it but they're soon sorted as they would be anywhere. There's never really been much of an old guard attitude at the 100club more than other places I think people have been left to enjoy themselves and the music. I would hate that to stop. I remember when Kirsty was cheerleading and go go dancing and who remembers the fairy/angels???? An.d god Ion in full flow on the dancefloor would scare anyone. One thing I'd like to see is more passion down there-more friendliness (which is returning). I've been saying if this can happen it'd be like Burnley taking the Stretford end. I hope the next one is a big party. The 100club deserves better. Best again Kev

It's not a blip Kylie more like a bit of a coronary...trouble is there's been lots of unpassionate people going there for a while and now that they've gone the people who understand what the 100club has always been about are returning ....slowly. Best Kev

Ian I can understand that some people may not be able to keep up the pace all night but London as you know has an excellent night bus service and people can always use the net to find cheap hotel deals. As for hanging about for the more hardy of people we always have a decent few after hours in McDonalds opp. Tottenham Ct Road tube. We discuss the night and records etc. What collecters do. By the time we've finished it's usually about 9.00 ish anyway. Anyone who is happy to join us come along. It's a gas. Best Kev

I know its local for me so easy to attend but if the 100club nighters disappeared it would for me leave a huge hole in the uk club scene. The hundred club has, since I moved to London from Lancashire 25yrs ago, been my 'soul university'. In those years I've developed my appreciation of 'rare' and 'not so rare' soul dance music. I've made many many friends and danced my ass off! If there are a few holes in the 100club dancefloor I've probably helped make them! I've seen the 100club go through lots of changes since I became a member all those years ago but it has always held its own. The music policy at the moment is as Ady says 'spot on'. I'd say its the best its been for a good couple of years. Butch has been awesome as usual. Mick Smith has dropped some of his crappier rare 70's. Joel has slipped effortlessly into the place once held by Irish Greg and Shifty and recent guests have made the grade, especially Kitch who I thought was outstanding. Ady is happy when everyone else is happy that's what he does. I know he can be a bit grouchy sometimes but god running the 100club for 31 years would do that to anyone occassionaly. Recently watching him play those records that he and Ace turn up is lovely. Ady's not that smug with it, and he very well could be, but you can see the inner smile. He loves it. As for the non-soulies sometimes they can be annoying-last month they spoilt the night but there's always been people like that down there it's Oxford Street. Imogen's right they just stand out more at the moment. As for all this package rubbish some people are talking about, sod off! You either are gonna get down the 100club and hear rare soul dance music. The best rare soul dj in the uk and the friendliest crowd there's been for a while. If you're not interested keep away. Also if you're thinking of making a trip please don't go there with an attitude. There's nothing to gain down those steps except a bloody good time. I've been in London 25yrs now and apart from a couple of other things its the 100club that has kept me here all these years. I used to say the 100club feels like an extention to my living room. That's how comfortable I feel about it. You could say I'm biased. You'd be right. The 100club as a club and as an allnighter with a unique atmosphere should be cherished. If it disappeared you'd miss it. All the best Kev

That's Right Ion. Guy asked our Mick to do the door as he was head bouncer/doorman at Burnley Cats/ The Circulation/ and various Town Centre pubs at the time. Kev

Can't you play it to the Baggies Russ?
