FFS Jem, I thought everyone else had already pointed out my memory was shot to shit....but you reminding me about the BEST of all dance tunes (well, it's a tossopt twixed gerald and 80 for the final running) is just too painful. I've been SHAKING THE FOUNDATIONS with 808state for about half an hour :D

I must confess to there being tears when watching 24hpp alone and Voodoo ray drops in......good to plug the dvd into the hi-fi so it is.

Went to the hedkandi site to see WTF you were on about....oh girl, you'd wet yerself at Rich and George DJin, smooth, vocal house with about 6 twists of weirdness is their signature dish. We're defo gonna have to run a coach from Bolton to our next coastal thrash.

:( grrrrr not if we build a ramp and get a good run.

Was thinking about Gerald then, about watching that series "pump up the volume". It starts off with all the amzing early Chicago and detroit and NY stuff, then decends into horrid soul-pish....then suddenly, the Brits show up, on comes Voodoo Ray and you remember why life is worth living :D

I also forgot Fish, Sea shanty and keep a move on by Mr scruff. (Great way to get rid of party crashers, 15 mates smashed in the kitchen with the decks up full singing "there's a whale there'a a whale, there's a whalefish he cried and the whale was in full view".

I love Mr Scruff, but it can get a bit weird, Alfie likes all the weird noises on it. He always cocks his head when i put that on.

Cheers! Yes, Last Rhythm is a classic, takes me back...! All these tunes, and next week, will really take me back to the fantastic years I spent at University in Manchester, hearing all these tunes in the Hacienda and other such clubs of the time - superb! :D

Oh, and of course I forgot Voodoo Ray, but that goes without saying really!

Like your outfits by the way, ha ha!

Can't believe I forgot this. Had a flat with two mates in the early 90's and this was our 'going out' record for nigh on two years! Used to stick it on full blast in the living room as we were all getting ready to head out. Fcuking wonderful record. Brings back A Lot Of Memories.

I was at one of them NYE Ally Pally things years back, before New Order did the Temptation thing, maybe 96 or 97. Orbital were the headline act. Last DJ on though was Paul Oakenfold, 5-7am slot or whatever. Did 2hrs of his standard set of the time - Goa trance / Perfecto stuff. And then the houselights came up at the end and there was a big pause, the the lights dropped and he just played the original version of this in its entirity from start to finish. Wasn't there three versions on the original 12" - well, it was the principal one on there. Wonderful moment. Lovely way to end the night and start a new year.
