  1. I'd never doubt your credibility ted.
  2. I've heard about plenty know DJ's doing this in the last few years but it gets pretty heavy if we name and shame on here, and thats not what this thread is about is it? and is playing from a laptop any worse than playing grapevine or a 2nd issue of the salvidors, when your tunes are on video camera, in front of say a thousand people?
  3. might as well play the dooley's imho
  4. Bit late in posting this but there a fair few things I'd not played before so I thought it was worth while posting a few of my spins. Any more contributions, Jez, Sandy? gladly appreciated. early spins, Otis Redding- Boston Monkey PW Cannon- Hey, hey Peachy Green- Keep on going Jesse Anderson- True love express Jimmy Love two sides to every story Gloria Gaynor- Sorry Dynamites - Dont leave me this way Denise Laselle- The right track Timmy Thomas- What's bothering me Delrays Inc- Destination Unknown Gene Chandeler- In my body's house Black Sugar -Too late Royal Jesters- That Girl
  5. latin has been a distinctive feature in my sets over the past couple of years. Here's some spins Ive beenig playing in my sets, Black sugar- too late Tony midleton- Spanish maiden David Coleman- Drown my heart Latin souls- you been talking bout me baby Pete Terrace- We canm make it Gloria Gaynor- Sorry Jimmie love- two sides to every story. Jonah Jones- what you are Viva Boogaloo!
  6. Gets some bad press and is pretty unfashionable right now but acts like the heavies, young disciples ect flew the flag for street soul when there was not a lot else around. Saw many Acid Jazz acts back in the day and most were sensational, Corduroy, mother earth and the amazing Galliano, who were undoubtable the best live act I've ever seen.
  7. some of the best bargain tunes I've ever had from here come from Andy, tip top seller imho.
  8. I went down there about that time, Gusto- disco's revenge was the big pre track, and it was pretty awsome. hot summers nights by the lock. and Norman Jay was the guest!
  9. technics 1200's are cheaper than the've ever been, most relieble and iconic brand, that still sets the standards.
  10. I pride myself on my ignorance of most contempory, mainstream, music, although I take an interest in all leftfeild music types and try to get a fix of what might may interest me via radio 6.
  11. its just lazy btards who cant be arsed carrying an album box isnt it? Casnt understand why anyone would go for a re- edit on a 7, thats so backwards looking, 12 inch pressing have loads better quality sound too.
  12. does Curtis beat mix from vinyl or cd? I'm assuming Cd, or mps? same thing basically.
  13. Golly that looks cool, all beatiful people too, better than us ugly trall this side of the channel.
  14. interesting to hear them talking about Race unity @ Chris hill's jazz funk do's. I've hear Norman Jay say him and his mates used to get knocked back regualy due to their ethnicity.
  15. des, upper links not working on this one, can you fix it?
  16. fair piont Dave, I thought about it myself and commitments I have, i realise its not always possible to keep it up over a long period of time.
  17. its fairly good, but like most exhultated due to its obscurity.
  18. really good insight into what was played @ the brazenose st venue, for me, thanks.
  19. I think he's got a fair piont, there ares an awful lot of currnet nighter DJ's in England that you NEVER see anywhere if there not DJing, then again there's also some dj's that are into the scene and being seen. The nighter scene at least, is small enough nowadays to realise that the same old faces only show up if they've been asked to spin. In fairness though the more booking you get the less you can go out I sposse.
  20. this has that wailing sax thing but it doesnt sound like sound like the worzuls having a go at a northern instro, to me at least.
  21. modern life is shite!
  22. I'd say the wailing sax thangs, are what tipifies the sound but there's a shed load of things described as tittyshakers that are distint from that. Lots of people use the term on bay to pass off duff R and B and popcorn but that doesnt mean that everything described as TS is crap either, so there!
  23. pre wins hands down, there just too much knowledge out there now, lol. The net's created an equal playing feild, but equality = mediocrity in my book.
  24. Is a thousand pressing run, 45 years ago, especially when something didnt sell, that common really? how many of those thousand pressed are actually in collections? I just wonder, for a typical, major label, Northen tune, that did have a thousand run, 45 years ago, how many copies are still in existance today? how many have been dumped? how many too Knackered to play? and how many still reside in collectioins unbekwowing of there worth?
  25. valentinos- sweeter than the day... used to be around in bulk, and tho I still love it as an oldie, I just cant part with over a oner for one. Doug bank - kept on is another, Mick Smith had shiyte loads in the 8ts.
