Revival time for this I think I spin it at the skeggy rare soul weekender in april

Hi Chalky pm me your address i'll post you all my photos of venues mid to late 80.s plus dj. top 10's-20's etc plus anything else I can find regards Steve

so what would a mint copy of the Solomon king album go for ????

Hi Robin it was Gary Rushbrooke sound covered up as the Steinways regards steve

I remember that steve it was around the time Clifton hall started

aweful anyone caught dancing to that ought to be shot in the foot

Hi Soul folk well having had several copies of this in the past and pick a mint autographed copy up a few years back for £400 this finished on ebay today vg copy slight storage warp ended at $1622.00 which is £1051 I know its rare but how much for a minter now then

Hi Chalky let me know when your ready for them and ill get them to you '

Hi Chalky what a write up spot on great era to be part of like suggested you really should write a book I have hundreds of photo's from that era plus d.j's top 10'20's and loads of venue adverts etc you could use this era defines everything I believe in musically today

nice one Dave the d.b's of Detroit soul

salt and pepper season and spice shake it shake it baby

carl Fortnum as Martha starr to

Kegsy think Russ as already beat them to it ,it's Butlins lol

Sorry to hear Life lines taking a break not been to any since the move from the stables due to work commitments , but live and die by the ethos that Mick and Andy set out with . I did a revue of the second nighter they did at Sheridans it's on here some were will try and find it . but to me the musical policy never changed .It's just that over the years musical tastes have changed . Looking forward to see where the New venue in Nottingham will be in the new year

The minute Wigan shut it's doors lol

just to point out the photo is Kev Draper & Chris Plant holding copies of the Greater Experience " don't forget to remember " colony 13 not Billy Arnell

totally agree mate might see you at the palias as the last good nites there were the mid 80's ones on a Saturday

That's one of the point's I was trying to make Dave , the masses no longer want the northern scene driven by new discoveries their quiet happy listening to the tried and tested ,thank god that the modern/crossover scene still as the ethos of trying new discoveries and new releases , I for one cannot comprehend how folk can go week in week out dancing to the same records . surely at some point they must want something different , but each to their own i'll stick to playing something different always have always will.

Hi Kegsy in reply to your question I was on about the whole scene . as Steve .g's stated is fragmented beyond repair , which I blame mainly on past big promoters bowing to the oldies fest. If said promoter's had grown a pair and kept all gerne's under one roof then the new discoveries would have probably been accepted more openly instead of a small minority of us who be it 60's 70's or up todate try and get these sounds accepted. There have only been a hand full of promoters willing to push the boundaries Ady with the 100 club ,Dave with Stafford Mick , Andy,& Chalky with life line ,the Burnley boys etc. I also attend the modern room at venues some blinding stuff played pity the mass's wont accept it . Their loss our gain .

how about Harry Nilsson https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9evaJbSjHD0 you cant take your love from me was covered up as johnny caswell in the 80's

OK HERE WE GO IT SEEMS THAT THE SCENE AS GONE TOTALLY CRAZY AND IT'S BEING DESTROYED BY TWO MAIN FACTORS THE FIRST BEING THE RIDICULOUS SPIRALLING PRICES OF RECORDS. REALITY CHECK PEOPLE MOST OF THESE TUNES HAVE BEEN ROUND A VERY LONG TIME AND SOME PEOPLE DONT REALISE JUST HOW MANY COPIES ARE ACTUALLY OUT THE EPITOME OF SOUND A GOOD EXAMPLE A CERTAIN SHOP IN NOTTS HAD MORE COPIES THAN YOU COULD WAVE A STICK AT, AND THERE'S PLENTY MORE LIKE IT AND TO TOP IT THERE STILL TURNING UP, DOESNT THAT TELL PEOPLE SOME THING ????? LIKE IT AINT THAT RARE . THE SECOND FACTORS SEEMS TO BE THE STUPID AMOUNT OF VENUES MAINLY PLAYING THE SAME 100 + SOUNDS WEEK IN WEEK OUT . FOR GODS SAKE WHY DONT THEY JUST HOLD ONE BLOODY NITE IF THATS ALL THEY WANT TO HERE . WHATS THE POINT OF 50 ODD VENUES ALL PLAYING THE SAME , YOU MAY AS WELL ALL GO TO THE SAME PLACE, MAKES SENSE DOSN'T IT ??? AS FOR THE RARER SIDE OF THE SCENE THESE VENUES ARE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN AND MOST ARE TO FAR TO TRAVEL TO THESE DAYS FOR ME DUE TO WORK COMMITMENTS . WHATS YOUR THOUGHTS GUY'S

at least 2k rare as I had one some 25 years ago and sold it for £300 then

Just been on ebay to check finish price on the d.c. magnatones only ever seen 3 in 20 odd years there's now another one up for sale that's two in as many day's perhaps its not as rare as thought

WHAT DID YOU EXPECT pigs will fly before there's a decent program made on the scene
