Dancing in the street - bowie & Jagger

I've seen her at the Black Bee, she's a very good dancer! But that Video is awful. I missed the USP first time round

Additionally, I was going to use Victoria Baths for the Manchester European Soul Weekender this year, but they said they'd already taken a booking for a big soul allnighter around the same time. I was glad to see it had morris dancers when I saw the flyer

Of a similar ilk (Wigan Young Souls Related), a colleague sent me this video of Jagger and Bowie. Apparently its an advert for Brutus, however, I think it's ill-advised and ill-considered and the art-direction is poor. in fact it looks like a bad degree show video...I just don't understand the concept. In this instance, I'd rather be a stick shaking, clog clicking Morris dancer.

Mixing is a different kettle of fish, I don't think anyone would wants that...let the record more or less finish! I'm just saying, folk just try, if possible to keep the music playing in a seamless fashion...but more or less, letting one record finish and the other start. mixing would be awful

'Ok lets leave this with another segment of my first response, and on a bit of a lighter note. And as for mid 60's archetypal northern, I think it could be done. Why would you want to...well you wouldn't because I guess you wouldn't like it, but done right it sounds good. It just can't be done every time! I guess i'm canvasing for the 'occasional' bit of 'effort' not even skill. Catching that last beat of a 60's northern record with the following thud of the next single sounds ok if done right. Dave T again, does it at Hamburg 2011, and thats on youtube too. G. Davis & R. Tyler - Hold On, Help Is On The Way mixed with philly dog around the world. And it keep the place bouncing. Paul Grant does it too, but with uptempo 60's.

Ok forget the B-Boys, that's secondary. The point is you can be technically skilled as a DJ, playing northern soul, blending records without huge gaps and if anything, it adds to the atmosphere. And they're both very good DJ's for it.

What an awful question! typical SS one liner! Both DJs who play northern soul... Playing at an event that is northern soul orientated... Playing at an event where the vast majority of attendees are northern soul fans and collectors... But playing in such a way that is not atypical of the scene in general. And since its a video...you can see it and make a judgement on it. And it was to add value and a visual reference to the thread, in hope to further the discussion?

A nice example of Dj'ing that you can only do in Europe, and I can certainly speak from experience. Shows fairly good technical skills and befitting of the era too, I'd say. Bamburg There is also a video somewhere on YouTube from one of the Manchester Soul Weekender sessions where Malayka is DJ'ing with Soul Sam and the beat matching is great; they've even got B-Boys doing breaks in front of them to it. I think a little technical ability goes a long way in this 'scene'. I mean Sam and Dave are at the older scale of this movement and they're pioneering what think should have been well established and ubiquitous techniques. Equally, they've got the collections and taste to do it. I try and do it, and I think it works well,. You can't do it with every record, and it'll never be seamless unless you get a pre-mediated set together, but you can't do that in this scene, you need to be responsive to the floor so I wouldn't advocate every record goes beat-for-beat into the next... As a parting comment, I've seen and booked some big collectors who are awful DJ's - but the flip side is some people just want to hear the big, rare records.

Hello, still after a copy of this. Missed the recent eBay one, bloody snipes!! PM with condition and price. Thanks, Gary

I'd say more of a Royal Mail glitch. I posted records to a good friend in Italy after having tracked it on the website. He told me they've still not arrived Thats a 3 day (an counting) black hole.

Liam Quinn has.

Ha! didn't someone say they'd signed up to Facebook for it too? EDIT: I thought the thread was deleted, but having just revisited it, a few people fell for that. Very good!

Have a word with Liam Quinn too, he had two Bob Meyers for a while. I played mine this weekend with Maxwell in Dulcimer. Always works a treat! good luck.

I've been after this for years...
