Back In Time with JP - Fri 6 July

[jp]

Greetings all!!!! Long time!

Apologies for disappearing but I've been having some health and work problems for the last 8 months (nothing too serious but I've kind of been out of action). Also means I've not been out on the scene in person for a long time.

However I'm pleased to say that I'll be making a rare appearance next Friday at a Back In Time session up in Walthamstow, North London. Be really great to see some of the board members if anyone is free and fancies coming along. Would be nice to catch up with some old friends if possible as I've been having a really boring time recently!

I'll post the details below in case anyone can make it. Do email me if you're coming so I know to look out for you - [e-mail] - and also if you need any more info like transport, directions etc. I am more than happy to help. It's pretty easy to get to and from the venue with public transport.

Should be a nice little social gathering with the likes of Mark Professor, Gladdy Wax, Gov Dee, etc. in attendance.

Good Evening Sir!

Nice to see you back!

If Stephen's up for it, I might come along to this.

What's the transport back across town like afterwards? ;D

Respect

Nice one Gordy! Didn't expect you'd make it down but would be great to see you. Hope some of the London crew are free too. It's a pretty small venue but really nice and friendly and should be a good crowd hopefully. Beats having a massive but only half full dancehall anyway. There's room to dance as well as a chill out room at the back.

Actually just got a call today from Mick Eve (ex Blue Flames saxophonist) who says him and Ronnie Gordon (R&B recording artist) should hopefully be coming down too. Ronnie actually lives in Walthamstow so should be pretty easy for him.

To get to the venue is very quick and easy as you can get the Victoria line to Walthamstow Central or Blackhorse Road and then walk or get a bus down the road.

To get back to central London is also pretty easy (though slower of course) as there's an N73 nightbus from practically right outside the venue. That goes all the way to Central London - Trafalgar Square.

For anyone feeling flush there's also a minicab office round the corner who seem pretty reliable.

Hope this helps and maybe catch you down there then! Do email if you need any more info.

Respect,
JP

Hoping to see you there JP, and you Big Man if you make it.

[Benj52]

Yeah, easy to get back Central from there, Gordon.

It's actually pretty close to me so I have no excuse not to go.

[Benj52]

On guest now so no escaping... attending with my glamorous cousin, Cuz.

[jp]

Nice one mate. So anyone else coming down then? Gordy? See you there... JP

[admin]

I couldn't make it. Stephen was tired and wasn't up to going out so we had a beer and Playstation session instead.

Respect

Gordy

[Benj52]

Sorry jp, my son caught chicken pox that day so it was impossible to make it... next time?

[jp]

Very sorry to hear that mate. Hope he feels better soon.

Was a good session. Got going quite late, but then got pretty busy and I managed to get the dancefloor going which was cool. Gladdy didn't make it down but Ronnie Gordon was there and even got up for a dance!

If anyone's interested, I played stuff like:

Soul Limbo - Booker T & The MGs (Stax)
Nice Time - Phyllis Dillon (Cool Soul)
Woman A Love In The Night Time - Lord Spoon (Escort)
Who's That Lady - The Isley Brothers (UA)
Musical College - Prince Buster (Prince Buster)
Too Late To Turn Back Now - Alton Ellis (Giant)
You Lied - Rita Marley (Studio One)
Shame & Scandal - The Wailers (Island)
