certainly can matey, 2-3 or 3 till 4 availible, just let me know, the venue's easy to find, the waggon and horses, is on the the manchester road, from congleton its about 1 - 2 miles. see you there, get in touch if there's any problem.
Fancy a spot of djing this sat?
No payment sorry but I have a couple of slots now on sat pm and early hrs of sunday morning @ the congleton scooter weekender, cheshire this wkend. Obviously it gets you free entry though, contact me if your interested.
Sat pm you can play pretty much what you like, soulwise. 1 hour slot availible, its indoors too, case the weather turns all English on us!
I wish i didnt have to be Kev but open mindedness to lesser known tunes on the northern scene, well lets just say, the NS crowd in general are not reknowned for it nowadays, it'd probably take 3 years to break Cecil Washington or even Frank Wilson were they discovered today!
Trouble is it can all be so misleading, like assuming that a records relativly common cause you've seen multiple copies for sale in the last month, its often the case that several collectors are off loading the same tunes at the same time, tunes are ofetn like buses, you wait for ages...........
like many others with a young family, the weekend was all about flag waving, picnics and beacons being lit, sorry I didnt make it to any of the many worthy events listed above, but sometimes family has to take priority.
sorry totally disagree, 1/2 slots should be the norm, for every great hour slot I've heard plenty of collectors, go out on limb with records that dont deserve dancefloor time, shorter sots should and do make things flow better, and the ego thing which most northern collectors seem to poccess in abundance, seems to respond really well to the competitive nature of short slots.
muck fee, and mar lady calls me cynical, christ knows what i'll be like in ten years but I hope I dont get as bad as most of you lot, you'll have nay ficker selling on her at this rate.
Last call folks, a bit late but this is what I played last friday. Yeah I know i streched the classics just a little in places!
Black sugar- Too late
Isonics- sugar
Patrice Hollaway- love and desire
Seven Souls- I still love you
Cooperettes- Shingaling
Velors- I'm gonna change
Tommy Navarro- I cried my life away
Harry Deal- I still love you
and, as always, our last tune
Maxime Brown- One in a million
Pleased to say there's not much in either me soul or dance/ disco collections that I've not been able to replace over the years. Its the nigly one like the Valentino's- 'sweeter' and the epitome of sound that used to sell @ 20 and are now around 150, that i cant bring myself to hand over the readies for again that bother me.
A quid, thats exorbinate, it'd have to be no more than ten bob for me to buy without listening, unless it looks very tasty, but then I'm a cheapskate when it comes to tunes
country labels can look really similar to indie soul labels, i've been burnt a few times, but finding a piece of black magic can more than make up for it.
Buying blind, anyone still do it? has the invention of youtube made this a rare practice nowadays? as a lot of semiknowns are alrerady up on there and many clips can be found on other sources. Do you still buy blind, whata re your best and worst blind buys?
