    BACK FOR RATT #8 This event has been rescheduled from its original date of April 5th to avoid conflicting with the Stafford TOTW event. For those who haven’t yet experienced the buzz, we’re nestled in Manchester’s Northern Quarter at AATMA—a raw, unpolished venue with an authentic old-school underground vibe. Inspired by the gritty, dimly lit clubs of the '60s and '70s, AATMA features minimal seating, low lighting, and a scorching-hot atmosphere! Expect a blend of classic Northern Soul, rare and underplayed tracks from the '60s and '70s, along with some exclusive, previously unreleased gems! All strictly played on original vinyl. GUEST DJs: TO BE CONFIRMED RESIDENT DJs: JORDAN WILSON & CONNOR WHITE TICKETS COMING SOON! Location: 14-16 Faraday St, Manchester M1 1BE (Just behind the Hula Bar & Peer Hat. Look out for our signage to guide you.) Parking: Port Street Central Car Park 75 Port St, Manchester M1 2EG (Only a 5-minute walk to the venue.)

    Introducing Our First Guest DJ: Eddie Wainwright: ‎ "I've been collecting records since I first became a mod in the late '70s. One of my earliest purchases was Tamla Motown Mod Classics—which I originally bought just for the mod target on the cover—but that record sparked a lifelong love for soul music. ‎ My journey into DJing happened almost by accident. In the late '80s and early '90s, while running my own scooter club events, a DJ dropped out at the last minute. Someone pointed out that I’d been collecting records since I was 12, so I stepped up to the decks—and never looked back. ‎ By the mid to late '90s, I had moved from scooter rallies to club nights, securing a spot at Brighton Beach, where I was fortunate to learn from some of the best mod and R&B DJs around. That experience shaped my style and led to opportunities to play at some of my favourite venues and club nights, including Pow Wow, The Fed, Mousetrap, and rare soul all-nighters in Rugby, Burnley, and beyond. I’ve also had the privilege of DJing at mod and soul weekenders in Glasgow, Bridlington, and Manchester, as well as legendary nights like Green Onions and Barefoot in Lincoln. ‎ I was resident DJ at Empty Bottles Rare Soul Club in Leeds, where I also helped organise events. Beyond the UK, my passion for music has taken me overseas, with DJ sets in Copenhagen and as far afield as Australia, where I played the Perth Mod Weekender—an unforgettable experience. ‎ Always searching for rare and underplayed gems, my love for soul, R&B, and mod music remains as strong as ever. ‎ Current Top Five Spins: ‎ William Powell – Heartache Souvenirs (Power House) Judy Stokes – A Real Man (Soul Power) Cecil Washington – I Don't Like to Lose (Prophonics) Gene Holiday – Scratch My Name Off the Mailbox (Johnson) Jimmy Phillips – She Belongs to Me (Bumps)

    Looking for somewhere to head before the doors open? Port Street Beer House is the spot - located just across the road from the car park for those driving into Manchester. It’s a favourite gathering place for many before RATT kicks off!

    Really looking forward to playing here! Roll on Saturday

    Following up on this, Marlin McNicohols managed to get in touch with Cholly Bassoline last night for Me. He said the same thing: he doesn’t remember who “Jimmy Mack” was. He only shared what we already know, explaining that the name "Jimmy Mack" was an alias stage name. The name was took from the popularity of the Martha Reeves track at the time and was chosen for marketing purposes in hope to help sales. It’s likely that the recording artist’s real name has no connection to a “Jimmy” or “James” to make things even more difficult. What did catch my interest, though, is that The Debonaires provided the backing vocals on "My World Is On Fire", which was recorded at United Sound Studio during the summer of 1967, when the Detroit riots were also happening. I followed up with Elsie Gray to see if she remembered anything about the session. She confirmed that she remembers the recording well, but unfortunately, she doesn’t know the real identity of “Jimmy Mack” either. Cholly worked with a man named James Cheers around that time - who also recorded with Bobby Franklin at Pioneer Recording Studio (Late 60s) - but Elsie confirmed it wasn’t him—James was somebody who she knew well. She also added that the other backing singers on that session were Joyce Vincent and Dorothy Garland, and she’s now planning to ask them if they can provide any additional information. Sadly, so much time has passed and the key people involved - Mike Valvano and Marty Coleman - are no longer with us. I did manage to locate Marty Coleman’s sister to ask her about it on the off chance she might remember, though I doubt she knows anything specific about the song. Marty had some personal struggles later in life. I also reached out to Ian Levine, thinking he might know something since he worked with Mike Valvano on the Motorcity Project. However, he said the topic never came up when he met and worked with Mike. Like September Jones, it's another mystery.

    Hmmmm!

    Is there a member of The Precisions still around who might remember the song from that era and share any details about it? Worth a shot...
