Been into the whole mod way of life since a very young age and like lots of people in my age group it was through being a fan of The Jam. I was always into buying records but probably started collecting seriously from the age of 17-18. I'm not into the tag of being a DJ, I just buy the records that I like and have done for many years and tend to be a fan of all the classic tunes. I've got a wide taste in music but favour soul and r'n'b but also collect funk, beat, ska etc. First experience of playing in a club was at the Polish Club in Glasgow in the late eighties. I've spun records at clubs up and down the country and had a few guest spots in Europe since then. I'm co promoter and resident DJ at Scotlands Premier Mod Club, Friday Street in Glasgow (last Friday every month). Also resident at Soul Sunday every week with live band The Five Aces (formerly Boogaloo Investigators). Highlight of the year north of the border is always the Glasgow Mod Weekender which once again takes place this year between 29th June - 2nd July. I enjoy watching football (Glasgow Celtic), and fine wines and art galleries (aye right!!!). Looking forward to playing at Le Beat Bespoké 4 as I always enjoy my time in London and have many good friends there to catch up with.
Some tunes that I've been playing over the past few months, in no particular order, include:
1. Bro Robert - Alcohol (Jo Ann)
2. Barbara Redd - I'll Be Alone (S.P.Q.R.)
3. Juggy - Oily - (Sue)
4. Hal Frazier - After Closing Time (Reprise)
5. The Chandlers - Your Love Makes Me Lonely (Col Soul)
6. Gloria Scott - What Am I Gonna Do (Casablanca)
7. Jean Wells - What Have I Got To Lose (Calla)
8. Jo Ann Henderson - Baby Please Don't Go (Phonograph)
9. Donna Colman - Your Loves Too Strong (Avin)
10. Tony Colton - I Stand Accused (Pye)
