  12. Hi All It's that revolving door conversation again But just for the hell of it a reply. As you may see elsewhere my play list from the night My playlist The Imagination-Love diet-20th Century Earnest King-You gonna miss me-LK The Deep Notes-I betcha'-C/U The Smith Brothers-There can be a better way-Soul Dimension Holidays-Without your sweet love-C/U Eddie Billips & The C.C.C.'S-Shake off that dream-Gar-Pax The Fabulous Moonlighters-For granted-Blue Eagle The Manhattans-Crazy-CBS The Embers-Where did I go wrong-Atlantic Ron Patterson-Story book-Venice Ann Sexton-That don't make you a man-C/U Jimmy Brinson-It's all over girl-Brin The Trey J's-I found it all in you-Tee Gem George Perkins-Woman-C/U Chosen Few-Birth of a playboy-Canyon Bill Coday-Right on baby-Crajon The Theo-Coff Invasion-Lucky day-Dearborn Jimmy & The Shy Guys-Do I love her-C/U Arthur Prysock, If I was a boy-Bell Sound unreleased Larry Davis-I've been hurt so many times-Kent Rare Pleasure-Let me down easy-Cheri Vicki Williams-Do I make myself clear-Morgan Park The Precious Three-I need a man-Ref-O-Ree Ringleaders-Win you over-Studio Disc unreleased Ortheia Barnes-I've never loved nobody-Coral Albert Jones-Up to the sun-Bumpshop Diane Jenkins-I need you-Creative Funk Three records from the disco era or later, Eddie Billups, Manhattans and Rare Pleasure. All about perception, all three packed the floor, all are stunning soul records, 2 are hard to find, the other a Stafford classic, but becuase this was a rare soul allnighter, I played it on the very rare Dutch picture bag issue . Sheridan's was billed as a rare soul allnighter, thats what I played. That equals 9% modern soul from me, now that is rare. I played a set that respected the venue and it's crowd. Unlike others, to the string starter I say keep coming, new people and thier varied tastes and opions are what make the scene so vibrant. But the scene as long as I can remember has always been in evolution, and again one of the resons it's still here and not a dead fond memory, like the 50's Rock & Roll scene, which got hung up on when records were made. Finally yes the scene needs young blood, my son is 15 and my duaghter 23, they are starting to get to like some of it, they will be around when most of us are dead. The stuff they connect with is the 70's onward stuff. Now they are truly the youth of today and have an equally valid view. But all in all if it's soul it's all good. Revolving door conversation. To miss qoute a racist saying from the late 60's/early 70's some of my best friend are 60's soul fans. Have fun with this string
  13. Tottenham, getting to you mate.
  14. There still is an area called Palmer Park, it used to be a Ritzy area just north of Highland Park. Back in the day it was home to many of the Motown stars, Berry had a mansion there. But Highland Park is now bankrupt and this has spilled over into this area a little as well, Will ask around for you next time I'm there. As for Duke, he was always a difficult man to deal with, thats why there is little on him. But maybe time has mellowed him Dave
  15. Was this one of the Arctic numbers to get booted !!
  16. Not just Detroit, but all across the mid-west
  17. Met him a few years back, such a nice guy. We spoke about Pyramid, when I told him it was filling the floor back in the early 80's at Stafford, he cried. Said he wasn't interested in fame now, he is to old. But just to know that the music he and the band made, had moved people was thanks enough. F*$k me he's a tall guy. We keep in touch, he has recently had a heart attack, but is getting better again.
  18. Well Pete I think you have a been a bit rude. I have just sent him a note What a bargin, I'll take three at that price!!!!!!!!!
  19. Malayka is playing Keni Lewis-Ain't gonna make it easy What a great tune
  20. Time to change the bird, mate if she is trying to influence you djing playlist
  21. quote name='jumpinjoan' date='Aug 20 2006, 12:28 PM' post='335162'] Good topic Chalky. Although i still do pick up flyers when i'm out... it's usually the ones that are made out of strong card that i favour... not to read what's on it... although i do... it's because they're better to fan yourself with! Have to say these days i tend to use the internet more to find out what's on.
  22. Stunning!!!!!!! so sadly missed All time fav 'Don't tell me I'm crazy'
  23. 'No one expects the Spanish Inquisition, four reasons..............'
  24. To me it is all one scene, if a soul record is played at northern event's and it is accepted by the majority, it's Northern Soul. That easy As for the '60,s obsessed recidivists', has to be modern only'ists, love em all.
  25. Reading many treads on here, people term things as Northern Soul, Crossover or Modern Soul. But to many they mean different things. So what your definition of; Northern Soul Crossover Modern Soul
