One of my favourite EVER tunes
is 'Soul Travelin' by Gary Byrd.

Soul II Soul fans will recognise the first couple of bars:

Well done.

The backing track
is not actually samples - it's all replayed by the legendary Jimmy Castor Bunch, who were also responsible for one of the top, top b-boy anthems of all time....

It's Just Begun:

I could play a 24+ hour set of these kind of tunes with ease.

I recognised it from Halftime by Nas.
Thanks, I'd never heard of it before.

Ah, Nas, 'the good years'
Ever heard 'Live at the Barbecue' by Main Source?

His first ever appearance on record I think. It's a fucking rare record.

Have you heard of KRS One?
Now he is a fine example of a Rap artist.

Except for all that black stuff that he sees fit to 'rap' about.

I have no time for 'race music'
I make all my 'colored' records get to the back of my collection.

Black vinyl.
It's a fucking abomination, it really is.
All that segregation.

I make sure that all my black vinyl records are filed under 'jungle'.

With the indie lable 'burning tyre' a small subsidiary.

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Mon 25 Oct 2010, 21:19, Reply)

No, another new one.
Thanks again. The only Main Source track I know is 'Just A Friendly Game Of Baseball'.

Two copies eh? Are you playing the market?
(Zoz prayed for twink on, Mon 25 Oct 2010, 21:15, Reply)

Nah.
I stopped DJing several years ago, really. I do parties for friends and did a 'History of Rock' night in Dalston - until the constant requests for chart music and 'r'n'b' made me so angry I walked out, leaving my records behind, about three months ago and only just got them back today.

I will gladly play at a B3ta bash though. No Iron Maiden though, so all the Pratchett lot will probably try to lynch me with their Simpsons ties.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Mon 25 Oct 2010, 21:18, Reply)

Ooh, can I DJ too?

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Mon 25 Oct 2010, 21:21, Reply)

Of course not, you fruit.
When I play out it's breaks.

Though you and I probably have very different ideas as to what a 'breaks record' is.
(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Mon 25 Oct 2010, 21:22, Reply)

I am very good mates with the Plump DJs you oaf.
Lee and I go back decades. They're 'breaks', non?
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Mon 25 Oct 2010, 21:23, Reply)

Oui
Though, and I mean this respectfully, the Plumps are no longer the leading lights of the sound.

Shall we play breaks for Blousie?
(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Mon 25 Oct 2010, 21:25, Reply)

I have none on vinyl.
I'm sure they aren't - but I got the genre right though, didn't I?
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Mon 25 Oct 2010, 21:32, Reply)

You did.
What year do your records go up to though?
(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Mon 25 Oct 2010, 21:34, Reply)

Hip hop 1979 up to the early 2000s
Rock'n'roll mid 50s-early 60s
Acid and rave 88-92 (plus a few hours of early jungle up to maybe mid-90s)
Garage punk 1964-6
US Punk '72-75
Psychedelia/Freakbeat '66-'70
Classic Rock '70-'75
oh and hardcore funk '70-'77-ish

Aight. We could tie that up.

If you're any good I could probably get you something in Leeds.

My Sister's partner is Biff, who DJ's in The Wardrobe, Northbar, Sandanista etc..

Were you talking to me or to Monty there?
(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Mon 25 Oct 2010, 21:26, Reply)

Either
Gaz me. Biff is fairly well known.
( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Mon 25 Oct 2010, 21:27, Reply)

The Wardrobe does indeed seem to be the kind of place that Monty's style would go down rather well at.

(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Mon 25 Oct 2010, 21:30, Reply)

I have manfully suppressed the desire
to make a shit joke about 'DJing in The Wardrobe' and 'coming out of the closet' and I think I deserve some credit for this.

That's a shame.
Good DJ's should be left alone. I'd hate to insist something gets played and when it was it turned out to be a total misfit. By the way, I'm still listening to some of the tracks you posted ages ago (some by the Sonics and the Wailers).
(Zoz prayed for twink on, Mon 25 Oct 2010, 21:24, Reply)

I really do know what I'm doing.
I'm most glad you liked those garage records. That's punk rock at it's purest and best if you ask me.
