Third installment of this event and I had a great night. This venue really does deserve to be back as a nighter, large dance floor, clean ample seating and parking, in terms of balloons it's one of the best. Musically early doors delivered quality classics and some interesting selections but it was when col and Gaye kidson stepped up to the decks that the night stepped up a gear, for me. Gaye and Col knew what to do, to generate excitement of the floor without resorting to the obvious, playing some of the biggest nighter sounds mixed with a selection of tunes the lead the way to the future of the scene. Ted was up next and simply proved why he is considered one of the he best ln the game at the moment, filling the floor from start to finish of his set. Tony Smith's contribution to the scene is legend in collector's circles and he certainly didn't disappoint with a selection of quality rare soul seldomly heard outside the smoke. Next we had, prince of the Black country, John Weston, John gets everywhere, plays his thing and we love him for it! Hard act to follow but luci Jones has become such a professional she followed John with a set of high energy rhythm, soul and flow that kept me bopping. Proceedings brought to a close by stalwarts Rob Smith and pep. Thanks for getting in all three of our requests Rob.

Only one guest left to mention and that's the crown prince of black country soul, the Duke of driotwich, the baron of BlackHeath, Johnny Weston. John has ploughed his own furrow pushed his own style, grinned at them when they didn't like it, persisted till they did, and then requested it! He's the man! It you've not heard John do his thing, without compromise, come tomorrow you'll dig it!

SILK TOWN SOUL UNLIMITED - MASONIC HALL - MACCLESFIELD
Geeselad commented on Paul Dale's event in Soul Nights
Buzz is building lots of interest in this event, spread the word Macclesfield is rising! -
Chris Davis: Aside from being just one of the nicest people you could meet Chris is possibly one of the most innovative DJs in the last 20 years of the the scene. I had a host of folks saying 'you should get Chris on!' I'm expecting left field and different from this guy, always digging, always moving forward, is something I, and many associate with this fella!

Kelly Warburton; Kelly has gained a reputation as a lady who can really deliver a great set of quality soul aimed at the floor. She's a popular and extremely busy guest at a host of venues across the Midlands. We anticipate a dynamic set delivered with passion.

Sad loss genuine talent. Love her solo and work in the sweet inspirations

As always, we're proud to offer a selection of diverse guests that will all offer summat different. Passionate collector's who are all active and engaged in the scene NOW! It's Always nice to profile the guests. Starting with Johnny Beggs; John has been a involved in the scene since the days of the torch and something of a legend as local lad. John's seen fads and fashions cone and go but has always stayed ahead of the game with a stew of exclusives and rare gems that are always targeted at the dancefloor. Veteran resident of upfront venues of the past Bidd's, steam and the Bear John has secret weapons in the crates you just won't here anyone else play.

Well I thought that, but someone recently told me admirations, I remember being there but couldn't be 100% on the record. I spent most of my time at winsford in the modern room.

Geeselad replied to Kenb's topic in Look At Your Box
It's the backing but with weird dub like effects, from memory -
They do on discogs now as well

I know someone got sacked from the casino for the practice, allegedly. And a certain individual played a cut of the admirations at winsford allnighter, it didn't go to well

SILKTOWN - SOUL UNLIMITED - FULL ON NORTHERN SOUL!
Geeselad reviewed Paul Dale's event in Soul Nights
Many thanks for all who attended our first event at the masonic for silktown soul club on Friday. I was just such a nice feeling to bring old friends and regulars from the days of Macclesfield soul club at the venue. Obviously there is a lot of love for this venue and fond memories to be cherished. In re-establishing the venue we set out to offer a quality northern souls night in a wonderful venue, our first night really did that. The residents had dancers up and at it from early doors but when former promotor Ashley Fellows took to the decks proceedings moved to the next level. Ashley really does know this crowd and really delivered a top notch set full of dancefloor detonators. Next up we had Ted Massey from the west Midlands, Ted's reputation goes before him and he showed he's still right on top on his game offering us music the very few others own. The evening was brought to a close by the able residents, myself, jez Jones and Paul Dale who kept the floor busy till close. We hope you can join us on the 1st November at this great venue when Macclesfield soul club legends mopsey and foxy join us! -
One of the best new additions to the allnighter calender in my book, great venue, transport links and a superb line up at this event. Really looking forward to hearing Tony, who rarely gets our of that London!

Aren't some Jamaican 45's styrene? Plenty of them are poor pressings anyway

Proper excited to play at taworth, did I mention I love this event! Anyway if you've not been, it's proper, hidden away, dark and underground feel. The crowd are discerning and always reactive to a banger! The music really diverse everything from modern to R and B, classics, the lot! To get to play at the dirty time 3am, well it's bucket list stuff. Sone might like the honour of playing in W1C postcodes but this is a far bigger accolade in my book, these people mean it!
