ns itself rose from the ashes of mod, wonder how many were saying mod is f...... In 67, when hippies hit.

Being under 30 seems to have worked for quite a few in recent years, not going to name the obvious name but a certain capitol venue has always seemed to want somebody to appeal to the younger market. Nothing wrong in that of course, but I have seen some resentment on FB from guys who been paying their dues for a little while longer.

is there any evidence that this is happening generally with rock and roll?

if I remember correctly it was issued a few times before it became a pop hit, although it was big in dance clubs well before that. best original song they ever did, (there cover of someday was the best) hard to imagine now everyone got so pissed of with hearing heather's voice by the end of the 9ts.

haven't a clue, but its really unusual and I really like it. Sounds like indie release and it's surely called October. Be great to find out who it's by Q

bout as black as the antartic, a certified piece of shite if I ever heard one, yeah its white garage but that's not the problem its just poppy and twee and has that certain something that will appeal to BTB's (baggy trousered bastards) which means it wont appeal to me or anyone with an once of soulful taste or interest in black music, just imho.

Dont recall Jazzy B saying we were racist, just mainly white, I believe it was more to do with the scene being made up largely of suburbanites. There was 2 black kids in my town when I was growing up,

its just so fooking tasteless, couldn't watch it all, they look like the freeking goodies, but like more of them, f'christ sake we go on about the soul scene scraping the barrel, this is the fashion industry really scraping the barrel.

don't I recall shades of soul doing an article on the suspected pressing of this??

put this one down to Carl heard personally, he certainly popularised it anyway.

just don't get it either,I'd have more respect for somebody who told me they'd got into the scene a month ago.

the one thing the influx hasn't seen is growth in discoveries or even under played oldies, evidencing what many are stating as a lack of real passion for the music from what we describe as returnee's but actually only ever got as far as the youth club.

it might be fair to say we all started as divs in one sense, unfortunately it seems we so many permadivs these days.

arh but 10 % of something is better than 100% of nothing at all

fair point indeed.

This came up on the clapping thread, for me a Div is anybody deemed to be not clued up on the scene, there's certainly plenty of evidence we have many without a clue, check the comedy sale of the day thread for instance. it seems to me to a large extent, at least in the mainstream areas of the scene the divs have well and truly arrived. The term plastic seems pretty appropriate as many seem to think you can buy an off the peg lifestyle from an online shop, that like the records many they play are pale imitations of the scene's underground heritage. please discuss and enjoy.

interesting parallel on the early house scene many used to do fast, double clapping, as in latin music, usually in an instrumental passage.

didn't attend but have heard it on Stafford tapes, keb encouraging with 'let hear those hands clapping'
