Worth reading that again, Frank Norman(in a cafe up west) Had a missive from an old firm member about all this malarky,so I thought I'd throw me three penneth in.For starters the Beatles did give mucho credit to Berry Gordy's labels and his artists.By covering 3 Motown tunes on their early albums they also put more that a few quid in Berry's sky rocket.In fact it was partly due to pressure from the scousers (and the poof manager)that their record company EMI,gave Motown its own identity and seperate label,as Dave Godin had often asked for,under the collective name of Tamla Motown.However we was never that partial to 'em,at least not until Billy Preston joined the band .By the time the Beatles reached their peak,around "Revolver" we was all slingin' the Scooters and Tonics out the window.If you wanted a decent looking sort,you needed a motor and to grow the Barnet.Most of the old mods went a bit hippy,All Pink Floyd and poncifide. A load of the tickets joined the skins,and we was left with states who bought all their gear at Brent and Collins and had never been to Bilgori or John Stephan.Thank God the Essex herberts got into soul and jazz, eh? Then years later we have to suffer Paolo,Pillar & "born again" Weller diggin' through the bottom of our wardrobes and the remnents of our youth to re-claim it all!!What a Fucking Liberty!!!!! Merton Parkers!!!!! do me a favour,like the ice cream freezer said "a well below average white band" Now about all this "house" nonsense.......buy one in Essex,do it up ,then get planning permission for a two-bed in the garden,knock it up,flog 'em both off and move to Kent!! SIMPLE AS THAT!! Did any of you see that prog on BBC3 monday night?They mentioned GAH loads of times.

Stavros
at 16:17:36 Monday July 30 2007No to IOW. Festivals are the only gigs we can't get tickets for. Reason being that they (The Stones) are not in control of the gig so there are no guest tickets whatsoever.
Little Tommy Tucker at 16:17:33 Monday July 30 2007
Most of the british 60's bands were influenced firstly by Chuck Berry,Muddy Waters,Jimmy Read,Lightning Hopkins,John Lee Hooker,Howlin Wolf,Sonny Boy Williamson,Elmore James,Willie Dixon & Bo Diddley and the music that pre dated soul by many years,Rhythm & Blues.

Looking so forward to the concert.Not soul related though they are fans of Soul, House and Dance music, had the pleasure of seeing the Pet Shop Boys in Concert. Sound spot on and amazing visuals and break dancers. Consummate professionals. The talk around our brekkie table was one of the best concerts peeps had seen. Kindest regards Stavros Lynn

Trebor Hughes in LONDON at 15:19:24 Monday July 30 2007
Yes Thats pretty much right.Their most motivated blues angled member of course was Brian Jones.Mick was heavilly influenced by his school friend Dave Godin.

July 30 2007Ah ha I see the big debate is fast flowing. Well now, I have a very privileged position with regard to "The Rolling Stones" seeing as my wife is related to one of them. Now I HAVE personally chatted to Mick, Charlie & Ronnie and I can tell you without a doubt where there music comes from. I've had conversations with the three of them, Mick loved Motown/Stax/Blues, Charlie was/is Jazz and Ronnie is Blues/Motown/Southern Soul. And a previous poster was spot on saying that without "The Stones" most of SOUL music as we know it today would not I'm sure had the commercial success it has had so far around the world. I for one have learned to appreciate "The Stones" from the 'inside' as it were and there knowledge of Black music in general is astounding. These GUYS genuinely love our music and should be applauded and revered for what , in my opinion, they have done for Black music both here in the UK and around the world.

thanks to everyone that attended the Solar Radio summer soul boat party on saturday, great 2 meet loads of you, top tunes, great people & good vibes.
G.A.H.
at 22:36:41 Sunday July 29 2007Probably a mixture of Motown & obvious 60ts Soul We were just getting out of that Mod band faze although i still liked watching bands live. I'd take a pinch of salt with what Piller says too be honest. But yeah Randy was a top fella. I sort of moved away from that strict you have to listen to this if your a Mod lark. You can't live in the past & i firmly believe the what i listen to know is a direct descendant to what real Mods listened to in the 60's. I just can't stick the Beatles though..
Markthecabbie at 22:24:3 Sunday July 29 2007
Any Stones v Beatles argument has to take into account the fact that the Beatles paved the way for bands to write their own material.I think Lennon and McCartney wrote the Stones second single for instance.And without their example,Loog Oldham would maybe not have locked them in the room with orders to come up with some of their own material. Personally,I like 'em both.Not a cop out,I really do. Also Tony,can you remember what the playlist would have been at the alldayer.Would it have been the revival bands or the original 60's tunes?Missed both scenes unfortunately,too young to be an original mod like Bob,but too old to be on the 79 revival thing.Was really interested to read Eddie P talk about how Randy Cozens steered the new mods towards the original music with his top mod 100 in Sounds.I still have that saved somewhere if anyone is interested in seeing it.

I agree Dr Bob,perhaps when I said ripped off was a bit harsh,what I should have said was covered.But GAH I think you cannot dismis the Beatles like that(please remember these sre only opinions and not attacks)proberly the greatest pop band thw world will ever see (my opinion).

Bob Jones in Chillin & watching the
Gunners at 16:25:52 Sunday July 29 2007'Sitting right here on Parchment Farm'......classic Mose Alison. Please note one of the only ways to hear black music live in SE of the UK was to hear white bands playing Black Music . To say these bands ripped off black artists is complete ignorance. That, by the way, is from from my point of view as that is where I grew up and went to clubs in London and the home Counties such as Whisky A Go Go, Flamingo, Station Hotel Whealdstone, Klooks Kleek, and The Crawdaddy to name but a few. and don't tell me I don't know as I was 1st generation Mod and was there back in the day.

Still can't think of his name either.. Yeah Jamie was a MIND promotion me Ray & Piller.. Still se Ray from time to time over Upton Park.

HEY there G.A.H was that pic from an Ilford Alldayer ? was it a M.I.N.D promotion? Do you remember a fanzine called Patriotic, run by Ray Margetson ? I used to write a modzine called Start back in 81/82 and I'm sure I went to that gig !Great fun and top music as well-did Small world play it or was it the Purple Hearts. I remember patriotic was a bit of a bible for me, I loved the detail they went into about clothes etc, do you remeber a jumper called the guernsey?I couldn't afford any of it , only being 15 and having a paper round !

at 12:39:22 Sunday July 29 2007I see you all know fck all about music still.. Was it no the Stones who introduced white miffle America when the brought Howling Wolf onto the Dick Clark show. The difference between them & the Beatles is that the Stones paid homage to where the music came from. They were part of that Eel Pie island scene with Mose Alison Rod Stewert Long John Baldrey etc.. Read your history before you speak.. As for House being non original.. Get real you've not got a clue.

Richard in soulville hq at 8:26:19 Sunday July 29 2007
Your right Niki,the stones,animals beatles all ripped off RnB off the time,but they made no bones about it and did it well to a wider white crowd.Marky plenty of scooter boys around here,but there is a differance,scooter boys wear the combat type gear and rip their bikes to shreads while the mods get suited and booted and have their bikes in the classic mod style.We had a great night with Bigger at the Mission last night,only spoiled by the dopey know it all manager who took me off the decks for playing RnB (at an RnB night ),his reason was it was a bit slow

Funny you should say that Jester - exact same music policy at Howie's wedding in Norwich last night; just 20 miles from the North Sea
Jester
in fooked!!! at 3:48:12 Sunday July
29 2007Funny one should talk of 'The Cold North Sea'.
Just back from a MAMMOTH day out @ Southend's Cliff's Pavillion (what a setting), for the celebration of Mick & Yvette Denny's wedding.
Through the wonderful Phil Levine, I got this gig a few months ago, and BWOY was I nervous before-hand; you know the sort of thing where one has to bring their rig many miles away and one hopes that things go to plan, and that one hasn't forgotten anything important to bring with them
...I needen't have been, it fired up as big as brass (thanks to Ash for the loan of an additional bass bin), there were such open-minded peeps abound
Played from 6pm 'till 1am and I've never been to a wedding like it
Wall to Wall Soul/Boogie/Northern/Ska/Disco/Y2k+ Modern/Jazz Funk/Jazz Dance/2Step etc. ..I was in Heaven. Had The Wind Down Zone Vol 5 for the journey home; be honest here, I had tears running down my face as I drove back in the pouring rain, listening to Maze's 'We Are One', over 'n over again; turned up REALLY loud in the Boogie Bus.
It's true you know whatever disagreements we have, it all boils down to the same thing, we're in it coz we can't live without it ..glorious SOUL music and all it's relatives
Marky - thanks for your kind words last week; very appreciated ..Med Soul WILL be the next installment ..doncha worry

NOT JUST THE STONES...Every English act of the sixties stole American songs.Cilla Black plundered Dionne Warwick /Adam Faith plundered Lou Johnson etc etc.Although in my humble opinion Craig Douglas version of Only Sixteen(Sam Cooke) is Great and Frankie Vaughns version of TOWER OF STRENGTH(Gene McDaniels)is a worthy interpretation.BB King has always said Thank God The Stones ripped us off or we would all have died unknown and penniless..
Marky
Mark at 13:44:0 Saturday July 28 2007Morning peeps! For the person who said there are no MODS about then I must have seen an illusion last night at the Norther soul gig I was at last night in Colchester. Maybe some would call them " scooter boys " but they were very real with combat trousers and bomber jackets covered in scooter patches. Must add there was a girl there who was wearing a sixties mini dress that was proving to me that I do not need viagra yet
Nice to see Tony and Roni last night at the jazz gig.
Niki
at 12:30:19 Saturday July 28 2007GAH - yeah the Stones just ripped off sorry covered Chubby Checker, The Womacks, Solomon Burke, Irma Thomas, Sam Cooke...... to name but a few.... along with that dreadful Motown riff Ain't Too Proud To Beg, Hitch Hike, Can I Get A Witness (Holland, Dozier, Gaye etc)

Now is it me or does the best part of £50 a ticket seem a bit trumpy (excessive). I mean, it is only Chaka Khan.

NICOLA CONTE + The Root Source Live at the Jazz Cafe Friday 17th & Saturday 18th August doors 7pm £17.50 (Fri) £20 (Sat) advance Nicola Conte, the main man of Italian new wave Jazz Bossa Nova, returns to the Jazz Cafe for two exclusive shows with the backing of a full live band. Italian DJ/producer Nicola Conte's loungey brand of acid jazz relies extensively on bossa nova, but is also heavily influenced by the swinging soundtracks of Italian films in the '60s and '70s, plus touches of ethnic music and easy listening kitsch, reminiscent of Japan's Pizzicato Five. Part of the loose-knit Fez collective of artsy acid jazz revivalists centered in the Italian town of Bari, Conte was a classically trained musician who instead moved into production and DJing, working with artists like the Paolo Achenza Trio, the Fez Combo, Balanco, Quintetto X, and the Intensive Jazz Sextet. Conte also masterminded the Schema label, which gave many of those artists a home and cultivated a trademark, distinctly Italian approach to acid jazz. As for his own recording career, Conte scored an underground hit with his first single, Bossa Per Due, which appeared on a variety of compilations and was licensed in the U.S. for an Acura commercial. As for his own recording career, Conte scored an underground hit with his first single, "Bossa Per Due,". Conte's first album to be released in America was also titled Bossa Per Due, a slightly reconfigured version of the Italian Jet Sounds; it appeared on Thievery Corporation's ESL (Eighteenth Street Lounge) label in the summer of 2001. The remix album Jet Sounds Revisited followed in late 2002. Conte's latest album, Other Directions, is out now. Jazz Cafe 5 Parkway Camden Town London NW1 7PG Opening Times Monday - Sunday: 7pm - 2am

SNOWBOY & THE LATIN SECTION Live at the Jazz Cafe Saturday 28th July doors 7pm £15 advance Snowboy - UK's premier Latin Percussionist and leader of Europe’s hardest working Latin / jazz group - makes a welcome return to the Jazz Cafe. A cornerstone of the British and European Latin jazz scene for over fifteen years, Snowboy is generally considered to be one the finest congueros (conga players) this side of the Atlantic, as well as being a world-renowned jazz-dance DJ. His live act is a powerful band called The Latin Section with which he has recorded nine albums, and toured the world. Unlike many of today's overly polished or bland Latin jazz acts Snowboy’s sound is full-blooded, insistent and, above all, entertaining.

'when i go to these nights i like a variety a bit of soul Nu/classic/house and some jazz !'.A quote taken from postings last night sounds like the perfect evening but unfortunatly does'nt work,having promoted a event like said posting,when one jock finishes his slot say 1hr playing soul,next up plays dance jazz for example the soul punter comes straight up what's this we did'nt pay our money to listen to this.This carries on thru the evening with each changeover,Hence now more venues are promoting more than one room to give choice to the punters and also giving jocks chance to play their preferred choices instead of the incessant requests for the dreaded anthems.I prefer the choide of varied styles but do the 50-150 Bob mentioned I doubt it what do you think????????

Aja at 21:29:38 Tuesday July 24 2007
I wouldnt go to a house gig if you payed me
I Just like the odd tune or two
G.A.H.
at 21:20:23 Tuesday July 24 2007It's nothing to do with being "upfront" Bob.. Yeah i get lots of stuff. Some i play only once.. But that's Radio.. What i play in a club is entirely different.On radio i'm showcasing new material that's why i'm sent it & i still play 50% old tracks anyway. I'm judging them for just d/l a track & not having any particular feel or understanding for it but because there's a buzz on it. Take Mark Grant.. I've been buying Mark Grant rmxs & productions for 15yrs. Now all of a sudden he's got a big tune & too be honest he's done far better than Guessin again.. And Blaze "oh the new Blaze what a great tune" is it bollox it's cack & so is the new Blaze/Beyonce collaboration is just awful. Yet oh Blaze brilliant cos they don't have any History of feeling for House music.As for gigs like that you couldn't have that now times have changed the punetrs are just not there & the kids have their own heroes. So when was the last decnet Housr night you went to Aja?
Aja at 21:9:50 Tuesday July 24 2007
I used to love Nicky Holloways Swan sugar & loaf ,they had the perfect balance of music ! pure class
So sadly missing from a lot of the scene these days
Bob Masters at 20:57:50 Tuesday July 24 2007
You see G.A.H., Aja'a kind of gig is my kind of gig and the kind of gig we used to run, Bob Jones followed by Nicky Holloway followed by Giles followed by Norman etc etc. I find it hard to follow everything and be right on the money with what's new today and everyday. I seach as much as I can and quite often miss, or get on-board a track quite late. I think it's impossible to be as upfront as you and I feel lot's of people feel that way too, and as there's so much product, people are not sure where to look. I alway's read your playlist's to see what's about as well as many other sites including Traxsource. The amount of CD'r's you get you obviously have a lot of contacts but it is very unfair to judge others for not being as "on it" as some.
Richard in soulville hq at 20:56:13 Tuesday July 24 2007
For me a good dj should be able to play across the bourd, it makes the night abit tastier,the dj should have the best in few forms of black music.we have been trying to do this at ceasers and the mission for the past few years with good
results.

G.A.H.
at 20:41:49 Tuesday July 24 2007It's just music by number vocal tracks.. I guarantee i can pull 20 or so 12"s out of my records at random that 99% of the punters or Dj's have never heard from 8yrs or so ago.. Because the Dj's have no idea about building a set how to move a crowd or how to change tempo. Or even how to spot a tune. If it's not Blaze or Spen or now Mark Grant they're lost.. & to be honest the new Blaze tunes are so dire it's untrue but cos it's Blaze it's deemed as a must have. As for putting a great gig together the punters are just not there anymore. Nobody cares about the music it's full of wannabee dj's with no History.
Aja at 20:40:7 Tuesday July 24 2007
when i go to these nights i like a variety a bit of soul Nu/classic/house and some jazz ! House all night
Bob Masters at 20:34:42 Tuesday July 24 2007
To say there shit anyway is a bit harsh as it all a case of one-mans-meat etc, I do know what you mean though. I think that's why there seems to be loads of "soul gig's" all hitting a peak of anything between 50 - 150 people at each, but never anymore. I put this down to the "Music by Numbers " dj's who mostly seem to just be punters with records who play what they think people want but never have a clue about how the record their playing ever got to be the track it's become. I really do think the time is upon us where someone will come along, put a gig together that put's all the ingredients of old and new and the right blend of dj's, and pull the plug on some of these also-rans.
G.A.H.
at 20:24:1 Tuesday July 24 2007Then go to a decent House night & hear it properly
Aja in Suffolk at 20:20:16 Tuesday July 24 2007
I have to agree with Bob,i dont go out to many gigs these days simply because most of the Dj's are very blinkered and yes to many Fine Dj's are stuck to firmly in the past,and i am sorry but there is some brilliant new soul even some of the soulfull house deserves a play or two
G.A.H.
at 20:17:4 Tuesday July 24 2007You know as well as i do there's hundreds if not thousands of underplayed tunes. & most of the House tracks they play are shit anyway.
Bob Masters at 20:1:3 Tuesday July 24 2007
Just my opinion but if dj's at soul gig's never step outside the box their punters ar
