    Could be a tax fiddle as tax not paid on demos?

    They can’t be issues with plug side on it?

    I've had mine for over a week, maybe two but I'm moving house and everything is in storage. I opened it today and the look and feel is just as you would expect, QUALITY! Decks are out of storage and will be set up tomorrow, these will be on the decks.

    I'm moving house again and only just managed to get this transferred to iTunes and then my phone. Since then it's been on replay all day. Quality all the way, Thom Bell, genius.

    I don't know where these "soul, northern and Motown" nights are that you used MP3s. I can only imagine they were nights in hotels etc, not aimed generally at the scene itself. Even the mainstream ev ents use vinyl. Welcome btw and condolences on the loss of your wife.

    Maybe in a future box set. As far as I know Ace has the tapes. If not there is a good few in this country who would make one available to take a recording from. They received them from the pressing plant a few weeks ago so I assume they were able to get them out early because of this. Only a week early anyway.

    Used to get it on a lot of tape swaps at one time in 80s. Jim Wensiora spin then Rob Marriott.

    I don’t know any A list dj using a laptop at venues, maybe at some divvy club? Mp3s have never been welcomed whilst I have been going, it has always been about the bit of plastic, even if that is a boot or carver.

    In a sea of mediocrity, baggy trousers and divs, there are still some venues who do it and get it right. The Ukrainian at Ashton under the guidance of Chris Churm is one such club. With the helping hands of Simon Ingham, Phil Dunn and Mick Howard this little Club has progressed over the years to one of the best in the land, it is certainly my favourite night out. With one or two stellar guests each month it has imagination and flair few can match, a full house every month made up of people who were there in the early days of the scene to some with youth on their side but all ready to welcome records what they have heard before and records they have probably never heard. Music policy...there isn't one, the Djs are left to play what they want and it works. That certainly was the case this week and with a rare foray north for world’s best rare soul DJ Mark “Butch” Dobson. We arrived at the venue 20 minutes prior to opening with two extra speakers to boost the listening pleasure and there was a queue already. Phil Dunn kicked the night off with his usual mix to get the floor moving. Mick Howard ands Simon Ingham followed with tow exceptional sets of rare soul. It was then time for this months guest, the UKs, no the world’s best Rare Soul spinner Mark “Butch” Dobson. There was no prisoners taken, you know when the opening record is Jesse James (Love Is Alright) you know you are in for something good. 90 minutes of some the finest records from the 60s and 70s and without looking probably the 80s, a full floor to each, records from his earlier days to his more recent plays. The highlight being the Mighty Lovers cover up! There has been some exceptional nights at The Ukrainian but this was the best. It is really great to see people like Butch enjoying themselves at such a venue, he described it as "fantastic" and having "not heard a bad record". People like Tim Ashibende returning and looking right at ease enjoying himself, all this confirming that this little club is doing something right. Hopefully both will return to grace the decks in the future. I’m looking forward to next month already with Roger Banks, Derek Pearson Chris Penn and William Mailey the guests DJs.
