    I love propositions like that, nu- groove was a new York label, but I love the idea. I know both tracks very well, GTO was ace at the time a regular play @ Shelly's. The club you mentioned was the night club used in Saturday night fever, wasn't it?

    Right people, the reserved places list is now closed. We do have some capacity on the night on a first come first served basis only. There is likely to be a cue again on opening, if your not in it, your not likely to get in. Be early, or already on the list, or you may well not get in.

    Seriously not intending to bump, but the Travelers list has gone a bit ballistic! Not too far from capacity from that alone, and we're certain of many coming, who are not on it. Please be early or on the list. We just don't want anyone to be disappointed.

    Personally, I'd like to ban phone use altogether. Doesn't have to be Draconian, a few signs and info on flyers ect. We won't be the first https://mixmag.net/read/fabric-london-bans-photography-video-phones-news

    Your spot on, Paul, Im really sadly ashamed to admit I'm into northern nowadays, to anyone off the scene. It's associated with; a specific set of records, a costume and current culture that means little to me. That 'way of life', now seems to involve a flask of tea and sandwiches, dancing to same music week in week out at a host of local nights, with occasionally outings to the kings or crackpool.

    As I said, where these quality nighters? I wouldn't knock the 100 club but 'rhythm and soul', its has never been about big nighter records, has it?

    Almost legendary event now, and all for a great cause.

    Hi all once again, it's looking like this event will be really busy, we have a long list of travelers already. So please get in touch if you likely to arrive later or get there early.

    Despite hating playlists here goes, pulled at random from me box, could of listed 100 tbh. Bit of a mix but with an eye on a prospective dance- flu-er. Benny latimore- I got news for you Helen curry - I want you, I need you Johnny Newbag- got to get you back (another tim spun the other week) Frankie coe- get it jerk Keanya Collins - it ain't no secret Johnny sayles- anything for you Barbara and the browns- you don't love me Sir mack rice- it's alright Ov wright - ace of spades Taste of grey- for once in my life Or you can have slowly molding for the millionth time!

    Tim A played a great okeh track, think it was Ernie Lucas? And while we're in okeh for starters, how about this https://youtu.be/7Z35by1NWXA?si=GqQGos7VyaaPRYhF

    Not surprising nobody is ready to post a list of underplayed cheap tunes, far to many here that would scoff and sneer. It's the 'I've got better tunes than that' attitude, 'I must have I paid a lot of money for them'. I take the point to a certain extent, conventional northern that's good always command a premium. It's The odd ball, left field and just plain weird stuff I love tbh, a occasionally these you can find.

    Tim set at FTMNTC last week was ace, littered with great underplayed, available records.

    They aren't played because, as chalky intonates ego's get in the way. why play a cheap record when you can show off and play what you spent £3k on last month. That's the default setting for most.

    I just ignore this crap tbh, switched radio four off this morning, when a feature on it came on. You know exactly what they'll say and who'll say it. You have your official spokespersons of the scene and sometimes the junior official or youth spokesperson. It say more about the quality of journalism since the invention of the net than anything else, every subject matter is dealt with in a patronising way.
  18. Geeselad
    They do now!

    Ken, to quote the Scottish vernacular, I disnae ken?

    Integration is the key, totally agree. Setting up a great lesser known with something more familiar often works but so can contrasting the tempo and atmosphere to create a reaction in the room.
  21. Geeselad
    Sorry I disagree, but then I'm not sure where these nighter tunes can actually get played to a credible audience nowadays.

    This is what I was really driving at with the 'when did it become about rarity?' Thread, there was shit loads of great cheap records played at all the great venues of the 70's, they don't get played now! Playlists are the scourge of the scene, can't remember the last time I read one and it wasn't full of the same old, tired rarities. These lists sat nothing about the imagination of the DJs other than how much they've spent and how big there ego's are. The big problem with the upfront scene has become exactly the same, Willie Dale is the new John and the weirdest.

    Again we've had lots of interest in the event, if your thinking of traveling and don't won't to be disappointed on the night, get in touch.
