Winsford Soul

One of the books about the Casino actually gives the venue capacity, main room and Mr Ms but i cant remember what it was. I can remember it having over a 100,000 members. Glad they didnt all try to go the same night. Steve

Godbless Linda R.I.P Steve

Thanks for all the advice folks, watch this space if i decide to sell. Steve

If i decide to sell my collection apart from a few that i,ve recieved as presents would it be better to sell as a collection or as individual tunes ..... Any suggestions ? Steve

Sorry taken a few days to get back to people but just been to busy to come on here. Thanks for the kind words. But i,m defo quiting. So no campaign to get me to change my mind. I will be leaving part of my soul in Winsford so i think i will keep Winsford Soul as my name. Steve

Just thought i would pass on some info regarding the South Cheshire Soul Club . I have quit as co-promoter of the Winsford Allnighter as of the 3rd Feb. I,ve been involved for the last 3 years and i,ve decided that i,ve taken it as far as i can. I would like to thank everyone of the DJ,s who have graced the decks over the 3years that i,ve been involved with the place But more importantly i would like to thank all the punters who made the pain of running a Nighter worthwhile. Dave Price & Sam Moore will continue to run the Nighter and i wish them every success in the future. Steve

Just spoken to Steve. He seemed to be bearing up at this very sad time and he knows theres a lot of people out there thinking of him at this moment. Steve

Got to agree. Another couple that get me ... Originals, Baby i.m for real. Winstons, Colour him father . Tony Clarkes, Wrong Man. Steve

A list of Villages Steve

In my opinion I cant believe there's no mention of any of the following Widnes, Warrington. In the mid to late 70,s there was a soul night 7 nights a week in Widnes at different venue's. Warrington had the Carlton then Parr hall. Then there was St Helens, Where the Saints club ran for i think 11 years through the 80,s and 90,s The Saints was responsible for breaking as many tunes as any of the nighters that where knocking about at the time and Baz M and Flanny just don't get the credit they deserve. Great topic by the way. Steve

How dery vare you take the q out of them peoples that carnt spel And before the PC brigade kick off i have a son who,s Dyslexic who got 10 gcse, 3 A levels and is studying at uni. Steve

I aint getting married just so i can send the mrs out to get some will get some myself steve

RIP big fella. Steve

Doug if you decide that your like Pete S can i have next refusal please Steve

Thanks for comment. I try to play this type of stuff when i,m out and about. normally to a very good reaction from the dance floor and collectors alike. Why they get bypassed i dont know. A lot of late Wigan tunes have been overlooked by the majority because if it aint rare it aint cool or trendy. Yes there where some bad tunes played But there where some awesome stuff too. Steve

Me thinks its Soulie too Steve

Fantastic. My all time fav Motown tune well that and the Four Tops. Ask the lonely. Steve

Steve. I,ve got the other side of the coin . My son lives with his mum but he,s at a age 13 where he would rather stay at home and go out with his mates than come to a strange city where he dont know anyone and stay in with his dad. So basically i get to go out all the time. There,s times that i would love him to say Dad i,m coming over to yours this weekend so i can spend time with you but that dont happen much. So Steve enjoy it mate while it lasts. Steve

Surely the Gospel Classics is Gospel Northern. Hat, Coat ,Door Steve

Never get to soul nights before 10pm.Not that i go many soul nights. Saying that i never get to nighters before 10 either.Normally leave the house about 10 then have a drive to where ever. Unless i,ve been asked to DJ. Then i get there early doors so as not to play anything thats already been played. Steve

I aint falling for that one Steve

Who Does Steve

I had the pleasure of DJ,in for Sam on his first nighter when he took over and also his last one . Loved the place, that and Tony,s. When they both closed in the same year i was gutted. Its because they closed that i became involved with Winsford, it was heading the same way and i couldnt let that happen. Which thankfully after a lot of hard work the venue is on the up again. Steve
