Usual rule is DJ and one other helping them out. However - There are some dj's who feel coming in a car with 4 people each carrying a record box is acceptable to shuffle in and say there with me. Yea right Remember this is a hobby

2015 he was living in Oxford.[1] Philip Kinorra (born Robert Cromwell Anson,[1] also known by his other stage names, Julian Covey, Julien Covey, and Philamore Lincoln) is a British drummer and singer who performed with Brian Auger and the Trinity, Graham Bond, and Don Rendell, as well as with his own band, Julian Covey & The Machine, for which he drummed and sang. He also played as a replacement drummer for The Who's Keith Moon after he hurt himself in 1967. However, he only played one concert with the band before being replaced by Chris Townson, who filled in for Moon for four more concerts.[2][3] Deciding to go solo, he adopted the pseudonym "Philamore Lincoln" and was signed to the US label Epic Records.[1] His only solo album, The North Wind Blew South, was released in 1970 and includes his song Temma Harbour, which was a hit when re-recorded as a single by Mary Hopkin in the same year.[4] In the UK he was signed to signed to Brian Epstein’s NEMS label and issued one single, "Running By The River" b/w "Rainy Day", before NEMS folded.[1] In 1971 and 1972 he produced two albums for the British progressive rock band Paladin, but he became disillusioned with the music industry and moved to Dorsetwith his wife. As of 2015 he was living in Oxford.[1]

Robert Knight (musician) Not to be confused with Bob Knight. Robert Knight (born Robert Peebles,[1] April 24, 1945 – November 5, 2017) was an American singer best known for the 1967 recording of the song "Everlasting Love". Robert Knight Birth name Robert Peebles Born April 24, 1945 Franklin, Tennessee, US Died November 5, 2017 (aged 72) Genres Soul, pop Occupation(s) Singer Years active 1961–2017 Labels Dot, Monument CareerEdit Born in Franklin, Tennessee, Knight made his professional vocal debut with the Paramounts, a quintet consisting of school friends.[2] Signed to Dot Records in 1960, they recorded "Free Me" in 1961, a US R&B hit single that outsold a rival version by Johnny Preston. After this initial success, their subsequent releases flopped, resulting in a breakup of the group. They also broke their recording contract with Dot and were prevented from recording for 4 1⁄2 years.[2] Knight attended Tennessee State University, where he studied chemistry and sang with the Fairlanes, a vocal trio.[2] In 1967, after Knight was seen performing with the Fairlanes in Nashville at a Vanderbilt Universityfraternity, he was offered a contract as a solo artistby the Rising Sons label.[2] His first recording, "Everlasting Love", written by label owners Buzz Cason and Mac Gayden, was a success, reaching number 14 on the US R&B chart and 13 on the Billboard Hot 100. This enduring song was an even bigger success in the UK the following year when a version by Love Affair reached No. 1, ironically preventing Knight's version from progressing further than No. 40.[3] Knight scored two further pop hits at home, "Blessed Are The Lonely" and "Isn't It Lonely Together".[2] In 1973/1974, thanks to heavy rotation by Northern soulmusic admiring deejays he hit the UK Singles Chartagain with the re-issue of his late 1968 recording "Love on a Mountain Top", reaching #10 in early 1974 in the UK Singles Charts.[3] The song was also written by Cason and Gayden. The re-issued "Everlasting Love" went even higher in the UK in 1974, reaching the Top 20.[3] His final UK chart record was "Better Get Ready For Love" which reached #53 in May 1974.[4] He also worked for Vanderbilt University as a chemical lab technician,[5] a chemistry teacher, and a member of the grounds crew.[6] Knight died at home in Tennessee, aged 72.[7]

What's your favourite End of Night finisher
Zoomsoulblue replied to Dave West's topic in All About the SOUL
Wade in the water - been playing it since 82 -
Brian Rae - still on it at 74, always good for a chat about the old days - who played what record etc etc, I remember years ago I cornered Russ W and Brian ran out of questions of who played what at the Casino , in the early days 73 / 74 - someone really needs to interview all theses jocks get the history written down - legends
-
One of thouse legendary story's - if it was raining in the morning after the "twisted wheel" they would play it keeps raining by Fats - RIP big man
-
-
100% yes - mid late 7ts yes, if it was played in 66 it comes under the twisted wheel - pre 73 - so deffo Northern Soul - weather you like it ir not - personally it just went on tooooooo long - not sure if it was pressed one of the other guys am sure will jump on that - they use to use it as a background theme on radio 2
-
Zed - my best guess is - it looks like it's right at the start of the night see the guy on the left hand side arrive with his bag also people usually put some bags at the front of the stage. I would say it's the camera man lighting check for the Wigan casino documentary - just my 2 pence

Dick Not sure what you're looking for, as top prices will take time to assess, original, condition, research etc you've got 1,500 even at a lowly £5 a pop - that's £7,500 in your pocket - either way if you brought them back in the day you're quids in. top money will take longer or you sell the lot to a record dealer , quick sale - have fun either way
-
Both - you can save either into you picture album soul records sale - then list what you sold it for (I also put what I brought it for , where I purchased it, venues I've played it at, where I can remember - swapping for a deal of speed is acceptable) - that allows you to see what you had, 10 years from now after a few beers like a sad old Sod you can sit round with you're mates on one lap top going through and on another you tubing the clip - I guess for the £5 don't mean anything records I wouldn't go into detail.
-
Every record I've sold I took a picture -
-
Dick You're retired mate, do a back ground searches on price see what they go for and knock em out. Ask on SS for price if in doubt if you're 68 most if you're sounds would have been picked up back in the day for £5 , £15 anything higher that £20 was rare. You're quids in - I sold a few on here a few years ago - I paid £18 for gene Woodbury sold it for £360 and now it's £1,000 plus - it's mad - take ur time group a few rare ones together - if you've got TMG numbers the Motown numbers guys will love it - hope it makes you a million
-
IanP - not sure how much you paid or if you buy high end records - try and use the experience of some of the older guys on here - Russ , RobbK and PeteS have all been around the houses - if in doubt PM them before you buy - I know. You're concern maybe / well then they might buy this super bargain from under you - but they won't, your know why coz if they wanted it they've already got it. I hate it where people scam others into buying something that's incorrect, return the record, name the dealer- and draw a line under it. just because of one bad dealer, don't mean there all at it , remember it's a hobby- enjoy
-
