  1. Wow the South East is storming ahead ..
  2. yeah but Rod Dearlove and Graeme Ellis have packed it in now !
  3. Stafford did need more people .. Oldies venues attracted more people even back then Morcombe Pier hardly gets a mention now but had 1000 punters quite a few times in the so called wilderness years !!
  4. Mecca for me 4 Funky disco Curtis
  5. Ah ah " One Love" Thorley played that
  6. I just hope the so called newies events do survive !! . be it 60's all the way to Y2k .
  7. Yes very true , but the big overall question is how to bring it all together or just a good % of it . with so many different promoters and dj's pulling in different ways in the North its near impossible Sean Hamspey looks towards just 50-75 capcity venues now .. Ive got no answers sorry
  8. I think music policy is the cause of the splinter effect on the soul scene ( and not just the NS scene) therefore there's more nights . Oldies versus Fresh tunes , R&b versus later 60's , 70's and 80's to Y2k . Vocal house to Deep .. etc etc . Theres been so many genres played at all-niters it had to fragment really ?!
  9. How about this Eddie Parker "Love you baby " cleard it ,and Ted Taylor got it back Venue Copenhagen Backstreet all-niter
  10. Yeah I think Robin mentioned that on here on the Brum thread ..
  11. Ok then, I think its quite good .. maybe even played at Stafford .
  12. Has it got "Warm and gentle explosion" on it ..
  13. I was shocked to see Jan Jones clear the floor at Boogaloo in Greenwich ..
  14. Yes I think your right , but on some occasions when the reasons are combined. ( As when myself and Ray Phillips started to promote and and Dj at Modern Soul gigs in the south east late 1983 ) It's a very good idea ! However if you want to DJ with a load of old tunes , in an area that has a couple of other events you need to at least communicate with the other events promoters about dates !? or maybe just forget it ?
  15. Dont forget these ,( spun by brilliant young DJ's of their time namely Adam and Robin ) Sky "Show me the way" Leroy Burgess" Heartbreaker"
  16. There is maybe another reason Davie .. If you want to start Djaying !?
  17. Refosoul , both tracks are in there .
  18. you might be able to get their other side - keep away on Red coach , a good track too
  19. Yep me too Jock , Guy wasn't it .. You ready for Lifeline , what tunes you got lined up ?
  20. Ive seen this on recent Soul bowl lists !
  21. both were £20 back then Hes not bad on prices really , you can haggle
  22. top record , discoverd by Ian Clark 1984 or 85 along with Tab walton . worth phoning him I'd say !!
  23. "You cant let your left had know what the rights doing" Bill Wright , great dancer too
  24. I requested Lorraine Rudolph and the Brewster Crew of you Bearsy and you told me "No"
