Winsford Soul

Heard much worse in the Rubbish & Bollocks rooms at venue,s across the country. Steve

What a set of tunes. Would,nt like to have to buy most of these tunes at todays prices For millionaires only. Steve

Drew. I would say anything i cant afford is a big ticket tune and i dont mind spending a few hundred on a record. Steve

Thanks everyone for the info. Steve

Did Shirley lawson ever get booted on a backbeat lookalike ? Thanks Steve

As a ex promoter of Winsford nighters. I was in a position to give relatively unknown DJ,s a go in a big venue in front of 100,s of punter,s. Which i did most times the nighter was on. But not before i had seen them DJ at a local venue where they was comfortable with there surroundings and i was confident that they could make the step up to a big nighter venue and everything that goes with it. Because it takes a special type of person to take that giant leap. Some people dont like it once they,ve tried but others love it. It can be a scary, lonesome place if you make a mistake and cant sort it quick enough. Good luck to anyone that wants to try it Steve

In the last week i,ve bought of evil bay, Carolines. Cant help loving that boy demo and a Micheal & Raymond Man without a woman demo for 80 odd quid incl p&p. Bargins are still there. Steve

I aint got any hair to split Why is everyone getting so serious bout someone playing a few tunes at a soul night. Life goes on. There are far more serious thing in life to worry about. I collect and play originals thats my choice. But one of my best mates who shall remain nameless is a brill DJ and one of the best dancer,s ever dont care wether he plays original or boots. Thats his choice. His ethos is he would never play something that he wouldnt dance to Steve

Pete.I wish i had the picture. Steve

She would. If i got the job of holding her boobs out of the way Steve

What a fab show. Respect is due to Dean Parrish. He,s defo paid his dues. Steve

Ady. I started going in 75 till it closed and dont remember Major Lance ever been on. Maybe before 75. Dont know. Steve

Take it easy Dave n get well soon . Plenty of time in the future to snap some soulie when they have there guard down. Steve

Godbless you nogger, thinking of you mate. Steve

What a Tune. Got so many memoiries from a time in my life when a certain special person was there for me when i needed them the most. Steve

Hey up John. How you doing . Long time no see / speak Steve

Me to Steve

That's what my original comment was about. I'm not having a go at anyone who don't smoke, moaning about the smell etc, etc Was having a go at the large council run venue's more than anyone else because of the total disregard for people who smoke and there lack of adequate shelter. Steve

Bought mine about 8 months back. its got F/W scratched in the run out groove and its on the yellow label, think i paid £120. Went down well when i played it at Middleton earlier this year. Steve

My ex bought it for me for my 40th Just found the company sleeve that it came in. got a few labels mentioned on it starts with phonodisc then delta, congress, regency, tamla motown , cadet , karate, chess , regis , checker , del-fi and audio fidelity so i,m assuming that phonodisc had the canadian rights to all the labels mentioned or at least the distribution rights. Anyone ? Steve

Got a Linda Griner. Good-by cruel love on a canadian yellow tamla and it says made in canada by phonodisc ltd underneath the globes. Steve

Just signed the petition Steve

Rod. I could never give up the Nighters mate. Its part of me. Just going to sign the petition that Chalky has posted the link to. Steve

Thanks Chrissie. I knew it was round there somewhere. Steve

Dont know what the people on here think but we,ve had to put up with getting treated like leper,s now for 4months and its realy pissing me off and putting me off going to nighters esp the ones at Civic venue,s who just dont cater for smokers in any way shape or form. I,m not having a go at promoters by the way it aint there fault. Last week at Middleton myself and upto a hundred other people got pissed wet thru and froze to death trying to have a smoke. Any sensible suggestions.( And no Fcuking smart answers saying pack em in,) to overcome getting treated like kids trying to sneak a smoke at school. Steve
