Goldsoul

It's seems as far back as I worked at Wigan since Shimmy Marcus the Director met me in Stoke to discuss the potential of this film.

I took him to the Kings Hall and from that moment, the seeds were planted.

Several years later Soulboy is almost upon us. I sincerely hope it keeps the movement going for many a year.

I can assure you, plenty of great surprises. We never give the game away at this early stage. In fact we spoke to one female act only tonight who has one of the biggest tracks ever and hasn't been seen by anyone!

That's the kind of thing that makes Soultrip special and, it will be again.

Totally unique and always surprising!

Get booking.

Good to see Luther Ingram's If Its All The Sane To You Babe and Jimmy Soul Clark's Cmon and Be My Sweet Darlin added to the movie soundtrack.

Universal as usual screwed up

and had no information on Julian Covey. They eventually took my word for it, in terms of ownership!

I walked away - Bobby Paris makes my face screw up for the wrong reason, cant bloody stand it

Aye...Seconded...with Holly St James not far behind

The public have demanded somewhere nice. Detroit isn't, regardless of it's history. And we were there last year as part of the Chicago trip.

& vice versa

The Kings Hall has increased in numbers over the last year since the Modern room closed.

They work reasonably well at Weekenders and up to around 3am. It's just not a good fit at a nighter. Not our personal choice but the general consensus among customers and regular niter attendees.

Great tune, and underated IMO. Can't do a scan of mine just now due to circumstances beyond my control (ie. some scumbag stole my camera!). Original label is quite plain and would be easy to boot, but not aware of it having been.

Not often seen for sale but I think about £80 would be a decent price.

Guys- Can't understand anyone wanting to boot it.

I discovered it in 1981, the year of release. Its a small label from North Carolina.

A failed Beach music release.

anybody got a contact for Dave please.

All Nighter attendees do not like Modern interfering.

July 2-4 Whitby Soul Weekender. We have 2 newly allocated stalls available for Non Clothing traders. Vinyl/CD traders welcome. First come, first served.

Nov 12-14 Blackpool Tower Weekender- Stalls SOLD OUT.

E- sales@goldsoul.co.uk or PM.

Thanks for the push Ally. I have known Gary for an age. He's one of a few who remains fairly modest about his abilities.

I will definitely be using him. He's a 'stand up guy' as De Niro would say!

As I said before, this exercise is to make me aware of collectors with DJ ability who can offer a different type of entertainment to All Singing All Dancing Weekenders etc.

Cheers Ally.

Get Cally to pm me.

interest in what your mates resturant ? didnt you play cd's last time??

I host a Dinner type do on the first Thursday of the month. That particular clientele is looking for Hits and laidback stuff, hence the audience have no interest in whether its on vinyl or not.

The Bank Holiday planned event is a different one. I have suggested a full vinyl only freestylin' gig. Liverpool is a cosmopolitan city with no real Northern Soul history(as in there are not 100's of do's there week in week out). Hopefully it opens up a fairly dormant territory.

Off topic Kev but just a suggestion, R:E: next kings hall.

Any chance you could do something about the early morning daylight getting inside the venue, bin bags over the windows seemed to work fine many years ago at many venues.........believe me mate it knackers the event anytime past 04.00am..........please!!

Good call. I'll get right on it.

Kev i think you will struggle to find an DJs on this site

Aye...I know what you mean. Thankfully a few really interesting fellas have put themselves forward, so it looks as if the fresh ideas and new venue, might generate interest in one of the UK's legendary city's.

Wanted Collectors and DJ's of all kinds to help with a Vinyl Freestyling session at a prestigious venue in LIVERPOOL.

The owners are friends, so I am helping generate interest in the area.

This is not a typical Goldsoul gig full of 'bells n whistles', I am looking for enthusiasts to get on stage and give us a 1 hour mix of interesting stuff. We are not looking for Kings Hall floor filling.

If you fancy a day out at the Albert Dock and think you could entertain with Northern, Modern, Latin, R&B and any other sub genre that takes your fancy, either PM me or email.

The date is; AUGUST 29th(Sunday) 3-11pm. Looking for around 6 spinners.

Cheers,

Kev

A couple of promos landed on my doorstep and they're pretty good.

1. I had a fight with love- Greta Bondesson

2. Valarie- Marino Valle

The latter being a male version of Amy's hit. Real good!

www.wime.se

I think they are something to do with Sven Zetterburg.

Sure it's got credibility- Soul Fox collectors may want it! Imagine it filed neatly next to 'Mountain Top Theme' lol

Aye....Quality control got lost on that one!

Errrr.....Do you know my inside leg measurements and tell fortunes too?

What do you mean there's only one person this could be down to? Ever heard Milton Wright- I Belong To You?

Still have the tapes.... bleedin hell it was 1976 and Soussan had rights to Mirwood and Audio Arts back then, hence the backing tracks.

Roy Stewart.....who is he?

As for sales figures, how would you know and when did a further vocal of Theres Nothing Else To Say get released on a 45?

Talk about re-writing history !

All done is the best possible taste!
