TRIP 25/01/2014

PLAYLIST FOR THE TRIP –WITH VINTAGE VINYL-AT MILK READING, SESSION 107 ON 25^th JANUARY 2014. LISTEN TO THIS SESSION AND OTHERS ON MIXCLOUD-JIM B. DONOVAN. THE NEXT SESSION IS ON FEBRUARY 22^nd. BCNU-Hopefully-Jim.

A VERY BUSY NIGHT, WITH THE USUAL GLITCHES WHEN THE BAR GOT REALLY BUSY, AND I COULD NOT EVEN GET TO MY TUNES! A LITTLE BIT MORE OF A SLANT TO CLASSIC FUNK SOUL AND DISCO, BUT THAT REALLY IS THE BEDROCK OF THIS NIGHT. HOWEVER A FEW POPPY AND PUNKY ONES SLIPPED IN TOGETHER WITH OUR USUAL DOSE OF HIP HOP. FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT DO NOT KNOW READING, THE BAR HAS JUST PURCHASED A COUNTER SECTION OF READINGS ICONIC DEPARTMENT STORE, WHICH HAS RECENTLY CLOSED-JACKSONS, AND THE DECKS NOW RESIDE ON IT. SO WE HAVE ONE OF READINGS OLDEST BUILDINGS, WHERE MILK IS SITED, A BIT OF A VERY OLD READING STORE, AND WHAT'S LEFT OF A VERY OLD DJ ALL IN THE SAME PLACE, EVERY LAST SATURDAY. 

  I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO MY QUIETER NIGHT, THE NEXT, NO ROOM FOR SQUARES-JAZZORIZIT-ALWAYS ON THE FIRST TUESDAY-, TO ENABLE ME TO GET MY BREATH BACK! HOPE YOU ENJOY THIS SESSION, AND APOLOGIES FOR THE GLITCHES, ESPECIALLY WHEN ONE OF MY DISPLAY STANDS COLLAPSED!!!-Jim

PLAYLIST FOR THE TRIP WITH VINTAGE VINYL SESSION 106, AT MILK READING, ON DEC. 21 ST. The recording is on MIXCLOUD-Jim B. DONOVAN  WELL ONE OF THESE DAYS WE ARE GOING TO GET A PERFECT SESSION, BUT I REALLY ENJOY THE CUT AND THRUST OF DEALING WITH TECCY PROBLEMS-LIKE A NEW SOUND SYSTEM IN THE BAR (WHICH UNUSUALLY I HAD TO TURN DOWN, TO TRY AND GET THE LEVELS RIGHT)-CHATTING TO ATTENDEES, DEALING WITH THE REQUESTS THEY PULL FROM THE BOXES ETC. THIS SESSION WAS THE XMAS ONE, BUT AS XMAS MUSIC DATES SO QUICKLY, LITTLE GOT ON. WHEN IT DID IT WAS OF THE MORE UNUSUAL VARIETY. THE NIGHT WAS VERY VERY BUSY, AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE FACEBOOK PHOTOS, AND THE CROWD WERE IN VERY GOOD SPIRITS, WITH HOPEFULLY LOTS OF THEM COMING TO THE NEW YEARS EVE. SESSION, WHEN I GET TO PLAY ALONG WITH SOME OTHER GREAT GUYS. ALL THE BEST FOR CHRISTMAS AND "14. ONWARDS AND UPWARDS!-Jim. PS .The next session is on JANUARY 25 th, back to our last Saturday format.
