I dj'd at that niter a few times but didn't Pete Hollander run that with Mark.

Yeah he did, it was my re-introduction to the scene, it was just up the road for me. BUT I seem to remember Dennis initially being part of the set up. There again I may be wrong?

Dave,  I have a feeling I know Denis from many years ago with his Dennis the menace top on. Did he run a secret allnighter somewhere in East Lancashire many years ago. I was going to go to it but nobody knew where it was, very hush hush,it was a well kept secret. I may be wrong, I usually am.

Think he also had a hand in the bridge hall niter in Bury early 90s with Mark Bicknell

My birthday celebrations this weekend, looking like a good one

There are some great ‘oldies’ from the earlier days of the scene that you kinda take for granted cause for whatever reason they were pressed and became available to all. They were generally part of the fabric of going out to All-Nighters, listening to records, dancing and collecting a few ‘bits’ as you went along…but then you see a ‘real deal original’ and it stops you as you look and reminisce of those halcycon days…

Here’s two examples for me, both of which will be featured at CULCHETH This Saturday with Carl and Maria Willingham guesting

 

 

Billy Woods didn't John Anderson pick up a handful of copies ,with the intention to go back for the rest? Iconic record, oozing quality and the story behind it adds to the intrigue!!

Yes Absolutely, you'd never play it out anywhere, it's just that i'd never flipped it like most of my records.

What does JM know anyway lol

Talking of flipping them over this is ont t'other side of "Stop leave my heart alone", I'm not sure why I've come over all Yorkshire like, maybe cos Chalkys coming on Saturday. Manships recommended this one.

 

Aaah never flipped it, nice, but no cigar "Stop, leave my heart alone" all day long

Me Too, though t'other sides quality as well.

Yep originally played at Wigan for "t'other side" gotta flip em over 

Staying on the Orange theme another double sided delight, this side shades it for me!!

As July draws to a close, we are already looking forward to the August Instalment at Ashton Ukrainian Club. Saturday August 20th we welcome Mr"Detroit A go go" Phil Dick and his box of rare soul delights, add to that Bolton's Paul Johnson main man Chris Churm, Stockport's finest Simon Ingham and kicking the whole thing off Phil Dunn .

We think you'll agree a pretty special line up for your entertainment. The night runs 7.30 pm-00.30 and admission £5 pay on the door.

Advance warning!! PLEASE ARRIVE EARLY !! It's gonna get Soulful and dancefloor space will be at a premium. Lots of new faces again last month, some amazing feedback and for that we thank you!!

See you there!!

Another one for either room, now a few copies have turned up in the North West 

Parkers memories and this beauty could tear up the dance floor in either room WHOOOSH!!

Perfect Philly Soul and the intro very reminiscent of Elipsis "people" Just right for the modern room!!

Hoping to make this one, really nice venue and a great line up!
