Seduction - Groove me
Frank De Wulf - B-sides vol 1
Creation - Give it up

The last one is on one of the Knights, dunno what volume???...Its a good tune IMO pauly, if you like ya srcreaming biatches, the piano is lush :love:

Just looked on oggs and its just the deconstruction one, im sure we have one with a piccy sleeve cos the piccy sleeve is mint too...

the vocal goes somat like...We crossed the line, we played around, we should ought to (??) and there were times we knew we'd gone to far, but theres no point in looking back, though the memorys still ???? Its just another love attack...Then its got a guy singing on it...and then it goes in to a big ohhhhhh oh oh oh, give it up, ya gotta gota gota give up

I went to CJ's just after my 18th birthday, and it was indeed very shady!

I've also got some Fantasy fm tapes, Sully etc. that i'm trying to get converted to mp3

Yeah it was in chappeltown.little blues plsce that was a fuckin sweatshop wen nightmares on wax were on
Always thought it was "Sonny's" as in the name, which is pronounced like with the U? Or am i nit picking? lol!

Nr chapletown? Thought it was was slap bang in the middle? Thats where i remember coming out anyway, whilst the locals were taxing my JVC tape deck owt my Mk IV Escort (They let me keep the doglegs & bored out xr3i engine) :hubba:

Or was that 62's or one of then other 'numbers'.....lol.

Which one had all the supporting walls knocked out in the basement & the WHOLE floor above was held up with accro's?
It is sonny not sunny.he was well known across the north for being big in a certain industry.
On rave days Sonny's was threat free but rest of week anything could be happening.even his own son wouldn't just saunter in...hed check it out see
cheers mate. where is/was sunnys in leeds?

Any of you leeds experts remember Meltdown at the Astoria?
Yeah i used to go Astoria it was kicking to fuk better than hac around jan 90+ for quite a while cant remember name of night but on exiting it it seemed like it was chapeltown.always loads of cars of black lads smoking weed king willy predator style.
One night 4 of us paid king willy to give us a lift back home for a 10er i think.he got a mate to follow in case wé were gona tax him.was a proper gent.had a promising football career with leeds kids(at time hx town wud av been more promising but...) But then he found weed and a car and and a parking spot outside Astoria so football got shelved.
I wud av done same fuk all that running around 🦴🚬🚬
