I think its crap, however, it will properly top the charts, did not listen to it all, I found it boring, sampling is always going to happen they will sample everything now, especially with all this tech we have,

cheers chalky, for a momment I thought I had put my foot init, and can I ask about the belg bloke, selling reproductions, that Ian mentioned, is it him that had the sparkels for sale yesterday?

cheers for that, yes, its always got to be about the music for me woody and loads of other people aswell, as regards to playing a few tunes, and I dont have many, it started, because, there was stuff I wanted HIM to buy, but he wanted other records, but I am digressing here,over the years on this scene, I have heard loads of peeps play some marvelous tunes, and cant always remember their names, unknown people, as well as well known big DJ,s, I suppose, most people, have to play to the dancefloor, lets not forget, its the paying punters that count, not the DJ,s ego, look at my records, they are shit rare, look what I have got scenario. I am sure some collectors, DJ,s would agree with me here that , and I know its difficult, because they have to get heard, thats its their reputation that would come first, molly is a good example of this, hes been collecting for what 25-30 years, got some bloody great stuff, but he is a gentleman at the same time, do you see where I am coming from, and of course Carl willingham , but it takes years to build up that kind of reputation, and not mentioning Carl, just because, maria has posted up, if fact, I hate the mod stuff he plays, .most people who know me know I dont bull shit, I just tell it how it is, here are some underrated DJ,s.. Martyn Bradley col kidson when I say underated, I mean you dont get to hear what they play very often. flippin heck, you really got me started, me fingers hurt

no you are not, we travel when poss, read above, you will see where I am coming from, heres a few more Kieth Williams Alex Jones jumping Joan john weston..both these people have the VENTURA'S, and would go where they DJ, just to hear it. Phil T asbo annie Richie Adams and Dave rimmer does a brilliant rare spot, but never gets the chance theres loads more dont get offended if I did not mention you. and yes some of the above are freinds, so what, and yes, I do not always go where these people dj.because i dont have the time to go everywhere

thats what I was trying to say, its the records I know they have, and I know they will play, yes I suppose I am following the music and not the dj, so,s to speak, its about having the guts to do it though, sometimes, it does not always pay for a person to play somewhat diff stuff.: not getting many bookings ect, but then the love of the music will overide this ,and at the end of the day, thats what we are doing this for, to hear some great music while we can.there are a lot of men and women with some fantastic records, who never get the chance to play them out for anyone, I feel that most venues tend to favour the mates syndrome, you book me, I book you ect, and then i think, mmm what about the music!!!OK, some ones going to shoot me down now, go for it.

same here from me, I was a witness. and it was one on one, my concern was that I hate to see fights, I dont know fat fish, but barring him is wrong.perhaps this will be an end to it now.

personally I will travel when I know that the DJ,s booked are going to play some great upfront soul, and not the same old overplayed tunes .however time and money factors also dictate where its possible to go, and there are places I would love to go, but never get the chance to.and maybe we tend to stick to the same venues because we know we will enjoy it there. some of my fav DJ,s are Dickie W.George hunt.Kieth money Kenny burrel. Des parker, woody, yeah, OK, its my old man, but I speak the truth, always err in favor of those brave men and women who have the for sight to play past the safe zone.and a good knowledge to play stuff that gonna be massive in time.

you have hit the nail right on the head des .

has any one got the four pros just another girl on CARLA who would like it to go to a good home, and not too expensive

CAN YOU REMEMBER THE CONVERSATION WE HAD SAT NITE, BUT THAT COULD BE THE START OF A NEW THREAD ENTIRELY......

HAVE TO AGREE WITH YOU, SMALLER CAN GIVE YOU A GREAT ATMOSPHERE , BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY, ITS THE MUSIC THAT DOES IT FOR ME , NOT THE VENUE, IF THE VENUE IS SMART , THEN THATS A BONUS.
