So, full DJ line up in both rooms tonight and each one has something 'a bit special' to play for your foot moving or just foot tapping enjoyment, whether it be a four-to-the-floor stormer or a cool groove...so, as always at CULCHETH, expect something to massage the aural senses...
Think this could be mine...

Well spotted Mick, look forward to hearing that on the CULCHETH main room sound system, it'll sound great!
Looking forward to giving this an airing on Saturday
It's a 2 Roomer so, Modernistas get set for another So Soulful Saturday, Modern Soul session at CULCHETH this Saturday 7 th December! Messers Plumb, Maleedy, Smith, McKinnon, Wildman and Ratcliffe will be dropping Soulful bombs, from the get-go at 8pm!
Expect 70’s and 80’s right through to the latest new release vinyl and everything in-between as we explore everything ‘Modern’, from Alverez to Zoom! Rare, not so rare and just damn good…
Now don't get me wrong, I love top 500 'sounds' but I REALLY love it when some of those 'forgotten' sounds get another airing and here's a point in case, thanks to CULCHETH guest DAVE RIMMER...
Quality tuneage from Mr Rimmer's playbox
Correctamundo...I've been playing this out for a while, IMHO it's brilliant! The other track which is an R&B stormer is 'Tell Me (Where I Stand)' (which I'll post later) and was actually issued on the 'B' side of Chris Kings I Can't Get Enough UK Soul City 45 release. Another in the playbox
Dave Rimmer currently has this mid-tempo gem for sale on Facebook Rare Soul Sales, if he doesn't sell it before the 7th me and Robbo are hoping he'll give it a spin as it's one of our favourite sounds...
Johnny Sayles is on heavy rotation on the decks at the moment, here's a great 'under-played' oldie that's ripe for re-activation and in the box for the Christmas Cracker
So as we near December and CULCHETH is on the first Saturday of the festive month, December 7th… We get right in the festive spirit with and absolute CHRISTMAS CRACKER in the form of an ASHTON Meets CULCHETH SPECIAL!
A two room Saturday night out but the main room featuring residents from ASHTON UKRAINIAN and CULCHETH joined by SPECIAL GUEST DAVE RIMMER for a night of rare, underplayed and classic soul sounds
Here's a sample of just one of the sounds featured on the 'wheels of steel' by Special Guest at CULCHETH
Looking forward to what will be our final night of the year and what a year it’s been! Reiterating the musical ethos of the much loved and much missed LOWTON CIVIC HALL soul nights, CULCHETH has strived to maintain a focus on quality sounds, with a mix of rare, underplayed and classic original records and so this year along with a small number of other venues has, in our opinion, kept to the traditions and expectations of the rare soul scene and its loyal followers.
Mentioning a number of other venues following the values of the scene, one such venue is Ashton Ukrainian Club. This year has also seen Ashton consolidate its place in the North-West soul calendar as a ‘must-visit’ event and so it’s with great pleasure that we announce a joint promotion between ASHTON and CULCHETH on December 7th.
DJ’s on the night, representing ASHTON will be two of the driving forces of Ashton’s success, SIMON INGHAM and MICK HOWARD and representing CULCHETH will be resident DJ’s KEV MURPHY and BAZ MALEEDY, adding to the line up for the night will be special guest, CULCHETH and ASHTON regular, and resident DJ at RUGBY, SWINTON all-nighters and Rare Soul Bol Weekenders, DAVE RIMMER!
There is no doubt, this will be a real CHRISTMAS CRACKER, so get it in the diary for SATURDAY 7th DECEMBER!
Looks like lotsa peeps have got the message Mick, there's a genuine BUZZ about Ashton tonight and why not...proper tunage, friendly, knowledgable crowd, great atmosphere, just a case of gettin' there early to get your seats... We'll be there for the off, wouldn;t want to miss owt, see you in a bit x
