    Ashton Ukrainian Club September 17th WOW!! Running out of superlatives for this great little club. It just gets better every month!! Phil Dunn started the night off with a nice mix of classic rare soul. That man Robbo up next, he came, he saw, he delivered in spades. Starting off in beat ballad heaven George Freeman "down and out" Jack Montgomery "don't turn your back on me", fire lit with the dancers and we were off, too many gems to mention, top drawer sir!! Tony Mac followed and for me personally played the spot of the night. In fact it was Tony who got me back on this musical journey 89/90 at a local do in not so sunny Heywood British Legion I think, which re-ignited the spark. A few recent acquisitions hit the spot, Otis Lee, Falcons and many many more, great mix of styles and tempos, take a bow mate. Gibby and Colin Wood or was it John Hillel lol Johnny slipmat you have serious competition lol .Joking aside really enjoyable 90 mins double decking. Wilson Williams the tune of the spot. We even had Matthew Simpson dancing to a James Brown record!! The maestro Mr Chris Churm rounded the last 30 mins in style, with one of my all time favourite enders to finish a great night. The Dells "make sure" pure goose bumps!! Lots more new faces once again and another full house, just WOW!! Check out the events page on here and soul-source for details of the October Event, when we welcome back Ted Massey and Welsh Wizzard Steve Thomas, can't wait!!!
  1. Judging by the response so far, it's looking like we'll do our good friend Paul proud!! People travelling from far and wide for a very worthy cause and not least in memory of one of the scene's genuine guys. See you there!!

  5. Happy to be a part in the event,looking like a packer!!
  6. Another Robbo Spin into crossover territory out of New Orleans
  7. Hats off to Janette for putting this all together. Happy to play a small part in the proceedings. I think we all have our recollections of Paul and his wicked sense of humour. Still hard to believe and miss our phone calls, he would have me in stitches. Still have a few of my purchases from Paul in my collection, pretty certain one or two will get a spin on this momentous occasion, see you there!!
  8. This always gets a spin from Robbo ,cheap as chips but priceless in soulful quality!!
  9. Quality mate!!
  10. Just over two weeks to go, as we near an emotional day for all I'm sure at The Paul Harris Memorial Alldayer. Saturday September 24th is the date for your diary!! The Rochdale Ukrainian Club, Mere Street, Rochdale OL11 1HJ hosts eight soulful hours of the best music in the world. With an all star line up of DJs!! The event runs 3pm-Midnight, admission £5 pay on the door All proceeds go the RSPCA Rochdale branch. The response and feedback so far has been off the scale, see you there!!!
    On a super busy night on the soul calendar, it was great to see so many people making Culcheth their choice of venue. A really busy night over both rooms and quality was the watchword with all DJs digging deeper into the boxes. The 30 minute rotating slots worked well and gave a great variety of styles and tempos to the playlists. Great to hear Ginger pulling out all the stops Walter and The Admirations, Antellects, Soul Incorporated "my proposal" and so many more. An interesting DJ experience with the decks at the top of the dancefloor, a deck peerers delight lol which added to the anticipation and atmosphere of the night. Hats off to Baz M for pulling all this together!! Long may it continue.
  11. Storming dancer from the west coast, love it !!
  12. As we approach the end of summer, the sunshine feeling keeps burning strong at Ashton Ukrainian Club. Saturday September 17th brings another great night in prospect!! Joining Phil Dunn and our main man Chris Churm this month we welcome one of the scene's best loved characters Robbo for his debut behind the decks and a welcome return for Tony Mac and coming over 't hill from that there Yorkshire Gibby and Colin Wood to complete another quality line up. The bar was set high in August with an amazing night, that ticked all the boxes (no pressure guys) lol The night runs 7.30pm-00.30 admission just £5 pay on the door. Amazing feedback and anticipation already for the place that's becoming THE place to be on the third saturday in the month. As ever early arrival is highly recommended, see you there!!
  13. Good chance it will get a spin on Saturday then
  14. Mean moody mid tempo, just how we like it, the elusive 45 as a possible spin from Mr Ingham??
  15. Premier League Detroit !! Album tracking and a really nice take on the Tony Hestor Classic!!
  16. Rare one for sale, enquiries/reservations via PM UK only buyers on this one! The Limitations "I'm lonely, I'm troubled" VG+ Bacone £500 Visible marks on the vinyl per attached scan, plays loud and clear
  17. Given the popularity on the dancefloor for The Dynells, this is deffo worthy of a spin
  18. Perfect for the main room, criminally underplayed oldie with a non too shabby flip "I ain't playing baby", which I think was the original more preferred side
  19. Two for sale, enquiries/reservations via PM Jimmy Moore "church street sally" Ex( demo) SPQR £500 Banging uptempo niter spin, label fade per scan, clean vinyl Eddie Holman "I surrender" Ex UK Action £150 Iconic oldie, rare UK release small sticker on flip
  20. Crossover winner worthy of main room spins from the prolific Vanguards!!
  21. 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?
  22. Think he also had a hand in the bridge hall niter in Bury early 90s with Mark Bicknell
  23. My birthday celebrations this weekend, looking like a good one
