  1. wasnt this place famous on the high energy/ gay scene?
  2. seen it clear the floor a few times, too fast, for most nowadays
  3. seriously, so many devotees, what maybe be 20/ 30 people under 30 who regualrly travel?
  4. the ultimate has to be the guy at Winsford and the legendary incident involving Butch and was is the then Del larks cover up. Might have the details wrong here, please correct me, I was going to winsford at the time but cant recall the incident personally.
  5. spot on mate, best comment on the thread.
  6. sad but true, the very term scene, in relationship to northrn is a misnomer.
  7. Christ that Evette Busby is shite, sorry Guys i like my soul with balls, whatever the era. If thats typical of the modern scene, I'll stear clear.
  8. Funnnily enough I was reading a biog of Janis joplin last night where they clamed these guys were into Dylan and the folkies rather than soul and funk
  9. top find, ace!
  10. ther'e a BB king version on his MFP lp too. not v good tho.
  11. ther'e a BB king version on his MFP lp too. not v good tho.
  12. they don't sound too bad, apart from the mix, but I don't know if its because the're on a small stage but the seem so static for a soul band, just not dynamic enough in the performance department.
  13. its all in the past tense this underground debate, lol.
  14. isnt 10 just about the abnsolute minimal legal requirement for an event that size? doesnt seem like a lot to manage that size of venue with that amount of people in it.
  15. It should do, but to most Upfront means, non northen (mod, latin, R and b, ect) 60's Dancers, Ok you get the odd earlly 7ts funk thing thrown in, but lets be honest here, the upfront and apparantly open minded crowd, dont want to hear anything that sounds like modern soul. When you going to hear a Boggie record at one of these events? or even a 9ts garage record?. honest answers please.
  16. that's nice, its got a great loose feel to it, but the band can really play, jazzers on their day off, I guess.
  17. thanks dave, always wanted to know the back story, any official release? it was on a bretby boot lp wasn't it?
  18. It was massive at the 100 club at the same time.
  19. I can remember hearing this played at Keele, what's the story on this one Dave? I wasn't really into the scene at the time.
  20. hope you were taking the p Adey, the decline in quality of Beeb 2 directly coralates to its celebritfication
  21. got it from the library a couple o years back top read steve
  22. 3) do you think their are enough young people interested in the scene and if not what could we do to get young people involved? Many thanks. Kieran - nowhere near enough! - Northern soul needs to get away from the 6ts obsession that will inevetably kill the scene, move the scene onto to be more progressive and inclusive. Its not and never has been a 'retro' movement, the ideology is far more attractive and important than baggy trs and F wilson!
  23. sounds like a dooley's b side.
  24. I really love the 'what's happening stateside' budget album they put out in the 8ts, played it to death, loads of great cuts, garnet mimms, isleys, marv jonhson.
  25. totally agree, he's got shite taste too, if i hear another mention of alice russell, jeez. Not always keen of trev nelsons picks but at least he's genuine.
