THE TRIP WITH VINTAGE VINYL. SESSION 118, 20/12/14, AT MILK, READING.
LISTEN TO THE RECORDING ON MIXCLOUD-JIM B. DONOVAN.
THIS SESSION STARTS WITH AN HOUR OR SO OF SOUL AROUND SEVEN (PLEASE EXCUSE THE "GAP" AFTER STEVIE WONDER, GREMLINS IN THE MIXER! VIRTUALLY NO CHAT FROM ME, SO A CONTINUOUS MIX, MOSTLY 70'S TUNES, AND NEARLY ALL PLAYED OFF SEVENS, WITH A BIT OF A MIXTURE OF WELL KNOWN TUNES WITH A FEW FUNK OBSCURITIES DROPPED IN).. THE REMAINDER OF THE EVENING IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT! FOR ONCE I CHOSE NOT TO PLAY ANYTHING THAT WAS "TOO CHRISMASSY", AS THE TUNES DATE SO QUICKLY. I JUST WENT FOR PARTY TUNES, WITH A FEW (DYLAN, SPRINGSTEEN, WILBURYS etc) PLAYED FOR THE HARD WORKING BAR STAFF, BECAUSE THEY REALLY WORKED THEIR SOCKS OFF. FORTUNATELY NOT MUCH CHAT FROM ME, APART FROM ANNOUNCING THAT THE BAR WAS OPEN LATER THAN USUAL, WITH TIM PLAYING AFTER ME.
