Press Release

just thought i share 3 beats press release with everyone on OSA its a good read with some great quotes from people in the industry , enjoy:thumbsup:


*3 BEAT CELEBRATE 18^ YEARS WITH “BACK TO THE OLD ‘POOL” PARTY*

* *

Influential Liverpool record shop 3 Beat, become one of clubland’s longest running brands in November when they reach their 18^th year. To celebrate this fact, on Saturday November 10^th , the 3 Beat team are putting on a very special party at the Carling Academy in Liverpool, that will reflect the history and legacy of the 3 Beat name. The party is called “Back To The Old ‘Pool” and flying to Liverpool to headline is the godfather of house, Marshall Jefferson with a PA from house legend, Ce Ce Rogers.

In 1989, the UK was succumbing to the sounds of house music; from Chicago, Italy and New York, it was the sound of a new generation. However, there were few places you could buy it until 3 Beat opened its doors in Liverpool. All the big name DJs, Pete Tong, Sasha, Paul Oakenfold, Judge Jules and more, shopped there religiously via their world famous mail order service. The business rapidly boomed, leading to the birth of the 3 Beat record label and the now legendary G-Love club night ,which was voted Mixmag’s ‘Club of the Year’ in 1991. Now “Back To The Old ‘Pool” will turn back the clock and let us hear the tunes that built the foundations of the global house music scene once again.

When you talk of the foundations of house music there is one name that rises to the top, Chicago DJ and producer Marshall Jefferson. In 1986 he played piano on a house music record for the first time ever and in 1987 he produced the first ‘acid house’ record, launching the career of DJ Pierre. He went on to launch and influence the careers of Ten City, Kym Mazelle, Ce Ce Rogers, Frankie Knuckles, Steve ‘Silk’ Hurley, Felix Da Housecat and more. In the history of house, all roads lead back to Marshall Jefferson; there’s no name better to help celebrate the unique history of 3 Beat.

Alongside Marshall Jefferson is Ce Ce Rogers, another legendary name performing two of his best loved tracks ‘Someday’ (rated no.3 in Mixmag’s ‘100 Greatest Records Of All Time’) and ‘All Join Hands’. This is a rare treat to see this great vocalist performing tracks which hold a special place in the evolution of 3 Beat (and house music!)

Other DJs have been integral in the success of 3 Beat since the beginning and have played major roles in developing the house music scene in Liverpool and beyond. “Back To The Old ‘Pool” will also see them rocking the dancefloor at the Carling Academy. DJs’s such as Steve Proctor, a regular DJ at Danny Rampling’s groundbreaking Shoom parties; Andy Carroll and Mike Knowler, the first DJs to play regular acid house at James Barton’s pioneering late ‘80’s Liverpool club night, Daisy and who went on to transform Quadrant Park in Bootle into the first superclub; DJ Pluto, one of the most respected G-Love regular DJs; Pezz, manager of the 3 Beat record shop and accomplished DJ as part of the D.I.Y. crew; Steve Parry, another of the 3 Beat team listing the seminal Shelly’s in 1991 on his DJ CV; and local DJ/promoter Ian Kenyon the man behind the hugely popular classics nights Quad Reunions and Daisy Revisited.

*With all this history and a line up second to none, when 3 Beat decides to take you “Back To The Old Pool” it should do exactly what it says on the tin…*

* Carling Academy Liverpool, 11-13 Hotham Street, Liverpool, L3 5UF*

“The best credit and most patient staff in the world... Oh and they sell great records too.” *Dave Gardner*

“Very few record shops can claim to have been there from the start, and still be there today. 3 beat has had successful labels, DJs and a very consistent shop for many years.
