  1. Shite like that is what made house music sound so fresh in the mid eighties. Loads of producers with new electronic innovations at their fingertips, yet it took amateurs with second rate musical toys to show them how to use technology.
  2. Seriously? the crow has way more soul than that pap. Just cause its got an acid rock influence doesn't mean it ain't got soul!
  3. used to like a bit of vocoder, especially Mr Hancock, nowadays it reminds me too much of the vast majority of contemporary pop, synthetic, plastic sounding and as thin as paper. For me it marks a debarkation point when it became acceptable to throw effects over somebodies voice who couldn't cut the mustard. Cowell you ruined music perhaps forever!
  4. Tommy ridgley would do fer me. https://youtu.be/6PL2BnilVRA
  5. Alex Harvey could do it for me. Though again he had much more to offer than honkey blues. Sadly unlike cb and zappa the middle classes didn't get him, he had a massive working class audience, especially here in Stoke. Vambo was indeed scrawled on a wall.
  6. It's a little disengenuios to call the guy just a record retailer. His contribution, like the stone's, toward the popularisation of black music in Europe is immeasurable. It seems too many on the thread are turning this into a battle between godin and the stones based on personal preferences.
  7. Picked up a Bobby Hutton on here for a ton about 18 months back so never give up hope youth. Didn't think I'd ever own one and, I think many of those that we were after in the 8ts are still great value relative to other oldies that have risen expedetually in price.
  8. Forgot how good this sounds heard shearling play it the other week on his show
  9. Oh yes we all widely accept the playing of recordings on any format, CD's included. Although playing of illegal repressing is especially incourraged. .
  10. Memory might be playing tricks on me but I can remember having a conversation with one of the London skins/suedes, late eighties about what soul was on reggae labels and I think this was mentioned back then. Got a copy off here, I think, for about £70, no centre, passed it on shortly after as I couldn't ever see me playing it out.
  11. I can remember sd going on janis longs radio 1show to talk about his musical love of the band magma
  12. Wasn't aware of this till I read Stuart Cosgrove'book.
  13. Thanks for settling those points. It was a topic of conversation in the car on the way to a night out last night and so topical and relevant and I think it's already proved a popular talking point. I hope the King's lasts forever personally, obviously still a Mecca for many and has played an essential part in the survival of the scene. If some of the tourists have gone and. there's more space to dance this van only be a positive for the punter
  14. 1.kings Hall, and didn't want to name it, but as you insist 2. Reportably less than 500 in all rooms, and again didn't want to be specific 3. I couple of weeks ago 4. Haven't a clue, don't usually go to mainstream northern events 5.no 6. Because this is a site for conversation. Speculative, well there must be thousands of speculative threads about the nature of or direction of the scene. look at the popular. 'is it time to sell up?' thread for a good example. I simply wanted a general discussion of current trends in nighters. Really didn't want to be specific Hope you can enlighten us to the facts, and obviously your views on nighter trends are valued too.
  15. I was shocked to learn of the recent attendance of a large commercial allnigher. Having not been to such an allnigher in many years I hear this a trend that's been happening for a while. At the same time more regional and in many Ways more authentic nighters such as Swinton, rugby etc seem to be going through a renaissance at the moment. Your views are much appreciated.
  16. There's a whole thread practically dedicated to how soulful peel was, wasn't....
  17. My first alnighter was the paddocks place in Holborn. There was a modern room upstairs which was seemed pretty empty. I can remember ion Playing saxie Russell, and shouting, 'stomp you bastards stomp'. Couple of dudes from upstairs came down, Addidas tracksuits, loads of Mr T gold chains and dreads. they had a dance off with keb, busting break dance moves, but he blew them away. Think I met Dave carne and sedge for the first time that night.
  18. I went to that, crazy venue, rasta club?
