......'The Masses' don't want em.....or they are told they don't want em...... Len

....Yes 'a bone chucked'......in some cases Len

I LOVE YOU XXX Len

You forgot Brian Goucher! ......I'm a regular at his Thursday night sessions (in his record room).......'Numbers are low', but we love it Len

Me to - Is there still a Modern Scene? I know most of the Modern Rooms that were attached to All-nighters are now alternative rooms - They used to be kicking! All the best, Len

......Gutted Len

Yes that was my 'Midtempo Magic'! Len

He he - Years back at The Embankment Club, 'a very drunk' Dave Vanner followed Paul Donnelly........slurred into the mike......"Thanks to......"......then he actually turned around to face Paul who was putting his records away behind him, still speaking into the mike (as if he was 'havin' a chat')......."what's ya name again mate?"......Everyone absolutely howled! - It was fantastic! Me? - I'm sure I must have made a mistake once.......... All the best, Len

....I would still take that as a compliment! Len

I did about a month ago, I bought a couple because they have a habit of being bent in all sorts of shapes after the 'after' parties! Len

.........'Sadly' - I fully understand! Len

Absolutely mate Len

.....and to demonstrate - See below a 'Letrasetted' flyer from many moons ago, c/w a hand drawn picture!.........God life was harder back then......but I liked it All the best, Len

Doh! L x

Hi Kev, I did write that....but deleted it! ......ok, I'll share a 'snippet'....... .......What I find so special about 'this thing of ours' (To quote Randy Cousins) is that fact - One really can't put into words what it is. I love that the ones that do 'understand' (get it) also instantly recognise 'the others' that do......and it has nothing to do with what clothes you wear! See ya next Friday Kev. All the best, Len

Wow! - and you were right, in fact using the same word to describe it (Spooky!) I'm gonna give this one some more thought...... Len

"Sorry Sir"

Hi Win, I just wrote (in my opinion) a rather 'profound' reply to your 'searching' question......but deleted it because it made me sound like a girl! .......There's many things that make it special mate (as ya know) and I'm sure it will be in our lives until 'the end', in some shape or form. All the best, Len

....Well......I've got news for you Steve...... He, he - Just joking mate (That was too easy!).....You're nearly as good as me (ahem) All the best, Len

Don't worry Barry (not my design choice) although all 'fine 'n' dandy' anyway .......In the past, all of my flyers were complete 'one offs'......because I was using Letrasets, and a 'humongous' Blue and 'Hearing Aid Beige' photo copier that needed two people to carry the damn thing! This also left a 'unique' black shadow on each and every one! In fact, I'd like to see more 'retro' flyers about, because all of them nowadays are very professional looking due to improved technology....watch this space.... All the best, Len

I always thought it was a Soul Sam discovery, I expect a few of 'the guys' were playing it around that time though. I remember Sam playing it at The Embankment Club around 92 / 93 time, so he may have picked up on it shortly after it was first 'aired'. Whatever - It's a great record, which very much suits Soul Sam (Great taste) All the best, Len

He he - Classic!

Phew.......I feel a tad dizzy.......now where are my 'Lenny Lullaby's? Len

Except for this - Tune!.......Not sure of 'actual' value - But well worth £415.00 by 'sound alone' - COME ON!!!! OW!!!!!! HUH!!!!! All the best, Len 'Little Stanley - The Stran' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_ij4A8xFuk

That's interesting, I still presume there's loads going on everywhere as I stopped taking much notice a long time ago - meaning I know which events I like, and am not looking for any more. Maybe things are a changing, it's a very good point you highlight with ref no money / work (or the recession in general) because loads of us have moaned for years about too many events, and lots of us (including me) overlooked the fact that a hard recession like this will effect events more so, than having too many. I'm not sure if this is relevant, but I took my Son down by the river today where there's a free 'splashy water' type area, and next to that a 'pay' area which includes a Bouncy Castle, an Inflatable Slide, Trampolines etc. Anyway, the 'Free' area was absolutely packed, so we wondered over to the 'Pay' area, and I could not believe that it was almost empty. The bloke in the Ticket Kiosk, said they hadn't even sold hardly any ice creams, and we agreed that people are simply skint. He was as shocked as I - It really is the sort of place you avoid because of fear that it's bound to be too crowded. My point is, I think the next couple of years on the Soul Scene will be interesting with ref how many events are on country wide then, compared to now, because of the 'Recession Effect' All the best, Len P.s - Sorry if this has gone way 'off topic', but interesting nevertheless.
