For me, the DJ's I rate the most arent rich men, they just have the creativity of forethought to play original records that suit the dancefloor and atmosphere of the venue.

the kids in my class introduced hiom to me, nay bat at all, and I'm pretty cynical to retro acts.

Just got this amazing Lp yesterday, and although its around in quantity I'm dead pleaded, sooooo many great Boogaloo tracks on it, and some great soulful harmonies as well, for me this is the 'pet sounds' of latin/ boogaloo, less you something better in this genre?

Pulled some choons off the shelves, to let go, last week and had to spin a few cause I couldnt remember them! thats one of the pleasures of collecting. Amongst then I found a couple of B sides that have since found thier way into the play box, just wondered if this is a common experience, What did you find when clearing the shelves to sell?

be careful , most of the demo's are dubious to say the least!!!!

well so do country singers and reggae artist, but its not neccasarly soul, blues tends to focus on one element of life, black folk tendend to express there joy of life through a different genre, gospel. Both gospel and Blues can be soulful of course but are not soul in entirley

Byron is great, pity paris brightledge aint doing much nowadays, and I know su su pretty well, michelle weeks and obviously joi stand out from the garage crowd but its a bit more gospel influenced than straight ahead soul.

Rapael is great, forgot to mention him, of course sharon and charles and notably James Hunter who's one of the best I've heard, but Celo, is a no no for me Jim!!!!!!

Following on from the plan B thread, I 've heard lots of great white and black hopes over the last few years, Plan B, my comments have alrady been stated, Eli paper boy reid, made it through 3 tracks before I slat the CD outta the window in dispair, Fitz and the herberts, or whatever that're called, are you serious? and many more ( dont even mention duffy!) and basically apart from the Timmion lot, none of them do it for me. There are the odd exceptions, I really rate the cooking of 3 burners, and I'm willing to listen to others I dont know. Am I wrong to compare these upcoming retro acts to the greats from the 6ts and 7ts and if so who do I compare them to? Mick Hucknall and Lisa Stansfeild??????

Sorry to anyone I caused offence to on here, I havent got a problem with the morning after pill guy, I'm just a little disanfranchised from contempory music. I just dont think that many of them can cut it, and of course anyone is gonna compare with the greats, or even the also rans we love so much from the classic era, why wouldnt you? those guys set the bench mark, so if you cite them as an influence your gonna get compared.

What? as much soul as, say, Danny Wagner, tom jones or James Hunter Ted?

What ever the're sh+te anyways!!!!!

The sweet willl no doubt get a spin down @ Change, in July, by my fine self.

This changes every month for me, there's always loads of great cheapo's I've never listened to before, 3 recent ones are; Gloria Gaynor- She'll be sorry Betty Wright- Sweet lovin' Daddy Eddie Purrell- the spoiler

Kev, ive heard quite few big name collectors spin what I'd describe as nothing better than demo cuts, that lack a full production ( even a bleeding drum or bassline would help) to uninteresed dancers, a lot over the last couple of years, arrrh but the're only two copies of that! I hear them cry, thats an abuse of a privillage bestowed on you guys, rarity and exclusivity is great when combined with the discretion. that what makes butch so great! many others just dont have it. yeah Kev, empting a floor is a sign of a big ego, great dance records work on open minded dancefloors, sadly not all rare ones do!

[Play what you love - recipe for disaster if the promoter wants a full dancefloor...
