Well stay away from this site then! ......What were we talking about? Len

I was there! ...and have heard your booming (enthusiastic) D.J voice many times since.....also playing some lovely Mid-tempo tunz along the way mate.....what was that one we were trying to remember outside Life-line? - It's gone again! Happy days Len

I think we all heard mate - Crikey! .......It worked though All the best, Len P.s - A bit of poetic licence there mate, not really sure where Sean actually first heard it

I would pay £1,000.000.00 for it before I bought 'Patience Valentine - If You Don't Come' .......... All the best, Len

'Dusty Wilson - It's Going To Be A Tragedy' Len https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IuzM6wkhaEw

I know, I was just being facetious - damn this two dimensional world! Have to say though, that some 'really' hit the spot with me, whereas others don't - I suppose that's the same for us all, but with different tunes.....and the debate carries on.....that's got to be healthy at least - I've always enjoyed the rival banter, and although sensitive, I don't actually take that personally, it can be real fun. Len

.....Unfortunately, I imagine (and have been told) that's how I do come across to some - they presume I am a snob (and look down my nose at new comers especially), and to get it across that I don't can be a task on a local level at least. I've had....."I used to f*ckin hate you, before I met you, but you're actually alright" (said in a surprised voice) Work that one out!......apparently, I don't do myself any favours.........Nothing wrong in having standards though Ted (Doh! - I've done it again ain't I?) ......If only 'they' knew.....(I'm just a 'Tortured Soul', that loves his soul music) Anyway - back to 'the programme!' - How about this little Gem? All the best, Len 'Bobby Sansom - Don't Leave' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kx6QTuzgFVg

No, sorry that did sound bad - Not at all, I just have nice old memories of my own - Shouldn't of said that - Sos folkz (Sometimes what I write, ain't quite what I mean) I meant it in a 'things ain't quite what they used to be' kinda way, that's all Ted - We are all very precious about our own golden memories. One thing I would never have is that 'holier than thou' thing going on - the absolute opposite in fact. Len

Complete with Matt from Wigan (Walthamstow / Matt 'n' Jane) dancing away for hours....... Len

That's the one - TUNE! Len

Average Len

I can only apologise Len

.......This is gonna sound soooooooo snobby......but....if I hear this at a local soul night I f*ckin cringe, whereas if I'm in the company of 'really' like minded folk, I'm in my soul heaven with it - go figure! Len

'Dewey Jeffries - when no one cared' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8N0ZI1sC3x0

Of course! BEAUTIFUL! BEAUTIFUL! BEAUTIFUL! - always reminds me of Ion this..........I 'did a Moses' at a local Soul Night a few years back with this - I tried to 'skilfully' splice it in, but 'parted the seas'! .....Then lies the question of should I have played it of course - I think so, or some would never get to hear such lovely stuff (I 'pulled it all back' ok) Len

Well said Jocko. No offence / shock intended here mate - but if I were to cut you, I recon you would 'bleed northern soul'.......I wonder who else would?......... We miss you guys, 'and the like' All the best, Len

Indeed, the great days mate - This is how me and Nina (my wife) 'clicked' It took me over 20 years to get Mikki Farrow, and the day I got it, I gave my pressing to Ping (from Cambridge area).....they were so alike, I got mixed up, and thought I'd given him the wrong copy for a second! All the best, Len

Same here - I'd say it would be more acceptable if it was a 'heart wrenching female' vocal......but that could be just me. It's just that some of the mail vocals can be 'down beat' in comparison. Len

'MID' is the word - Not 'SLOW'....I think that's what gets mixed up. All the best, Len P.s - 'Mikki Farrow - Could It Be' - AWESOME!

That is a record that is 'ripe' for reactivation - Great tune .......but what do I know? You really shouldn't refer to me if you have 'dancefloor reviver' in your question - I'm the man that put 'Empty dance floors rule ok' on a flyer - It upset a few people, they thought I meant it literally! All the best, Len

Beat Ballad....I'll sit next to Dazz, and watch ya dance Night night Len

I may be wrong here (I can be! lol) I would say this would work well at The 100 Club, but not so well at some other nighters - Maybe because of the mod influence? I like the tune, and that's probably because of my own 'history'. All the best, Len

No 'Tin Hat' needed as far as I'm concerned mate. You're right, it is a dance scene, and this is where the 'line' gets blurred, I play records that I would dance to - It ain't Rocket Science.......but I would dance to some of the ones you mentioned Len

Sorry, I missed this bit Steve......Although I would love to show you my 'wealth of knowledge' - I dunno Len

They're 'Crossover Mid-Tempo' mate......confused? - You will be! Great sounds btw Len
