this along with Nicky Newharkers and Larry houston amongst others, which in the 8ts seemed to be well intergrated with a range of stafford stuff and top 500 oldies.

just cause the're not tuting on here doesnt mean they wouldnt if you played it out. especially if you played it at anywhere associated with ' rare soul'. Sad but true I'm afraid.

great track, but the acetate of it highlights some of the absurdity of the 'rare' scene, a one copy real acetate, so nobody else will or can play it out with credibilty, Carl and Maria, probably play it of another dub of it ( to protect the original) fair enough but this great track will probably never become massive through lack of copies. If there was no acetate of it it might stand a chance because some might think well its fair game strange world of rare soul or what!

I know, but true story, twas Al shaw who bought it on a new years, last one they had there.

A freind bought a Gene Toones @ the kings within the last 2 years, for £400, a nice clean issue too.

ditto

All I wanted to say ws I've heard the same conversation as Len several time, repeated by different well known ds, on one occassion I heard 3 dj's arguing about who was going to play what. all the said tunes were hammered anyway. Who'd want to be an oldies DJ eh? Spending a couple of grand on a record only to find the residents and the other guest has it to! LOL, really boring and so uncreative.

sorry my comment doesnt make sense. I've Maybe that could be seen as respect to another dj who is on before you/them.Certainly a forward thinking dj ,on the night,would avoid repeats if he paid more attention as to else was djing.One way is to have an an idea on who plays what.

all to the detriment of the scene I'm afraid Des. Sod the punters I've got my ego to satisfy attitude.

totally agree, always say I'll do it but never get round to it, lol, too much else to play russ.

A lot of shouting about the guy below, It took me a while but I love this track now, its definatly a move on from most R n B lyrically. https://youtu.be/GS_K2eg7Gx8

well if its fresh and hot I dont mind, if its lazy dj's not bothering to listen to one and others sets, then its poor.If its oldies dj's playing the same tune and they know its already been played its piddle poor!

Dave Evison helped turn me onto soul through his signal shows in the mid 8ts, an often witty and insightfull voice showed the breadth of the northern scene at the time from Eddie and Ernie through to the mellow souls, or as it was then the dellarks CU. Gotta add Richards Searling who's shows on JFM acted as a catalyst to the revival of the scene in the late nineties.

lots of music, most, has 4 beats to the bar, Motown and traditional NS had a four on the fours beat, ie both drums, and all other percussion hit at the same time. It distiguishes it from othe dance genre's, disco, house funk ect. However there are loads of exceptions too.

sorry not quite there for me.

simply cant believe it, a sad loss, gutted, my thoughts go out to his loved ones. the just dont make characters like mickey anymore.

its changed this week, just got another copy of, thanks to mr catto for reminding me how good this is, just sums different strokes up, and I played it last night @ change, quite simply the bollox!

are we talking in the same night or month by month here?

No expert and not a clue on any, apart from 2 obviously being a version of 'never found a girl', nontheless some great music, unknown to me, especially like track 1 and 6, sorry I cant help.

it wasn't direct pop at your views Kev, I know your soul's in the right place on this. I just get pissed at the commercial lot getting all eaten up about it about anyone flyering thier do's, if their in direct competition or not, at the end of the day the punters are free to make there own choice about where they go and stopping someone putting a few flyers out doesnt alter the fact. I also realise there are plenty of petty, purrile, tossers out there who do intentionally clash nights to cause friction and scupper others events. sad really. So I take your point that there does need to be some etiquette and common manners shown to avoid friction. But to be honest If someone comes to 'change' to put out flyers for a rival warm up for the kings hall, I gladly help them to put em out. honestly! I'd also attend their night, pull my 40 inch bags down and deficate on the dancefloor, in full veiw, and I do make that a promise! atb, geese.

now that is extracting the urine.

Cant believe people are so bleeding fussy about this, personally I say it again, anyone who wont let you put a few poxy flyers out on a reportable underground scene, or at least one that has its roots in the underground, is a tosser! clear and simple. cant see anyone maning up to defend the practice of not allowing it, on here. but there plenty at it.

I've seen one for 'Va vas' with named tunes on it like 'love and desire'

this tends to be guys who are putting on events to make money, I've had a couple do it on me, but I'm not arsed, cant see what the problem.
