Greetings all.<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

I have – like the prodigal son<\/em> \u2013 returned from my wanderings tired, but satisfied.<\/p>\n

The past week saw a mini-burst of DJ activity, with the Subway Soul Club<\/strong> (which we\u2019ll be rapping about this fine day) last Saturday (4\/16), then driving up to Massachusetts for Sweet Exorcist<\/strong> on Friday 4\/22 in Greenfield, and Wooly Bully <\/strong>on Saturday 4\/23 in Northampton (which we will cover next week).<\/p>\n

I even managed to get in some unexpected 45 digging in New York, which turned up a couple of nice funk 45s, a few disco things and a couple of doubles for the old trade box.<\/p>\n

Wrapped around all of this tomfoolery was a family vacation, with the swimming, the sightseeing, the fine dining (pho and New Haven pizza on the same trip!!) and a lot of close quarters, but much fun (if little actual relaxation) was had, and now here we all are, back in the daily groove.<\/p>\n

As I mentioned, I spent the evening of Saturday 4\/16 alongside Phast Phreddie the Boogaloo Omnibus, Girlsoul <\/strong>and PJ Lozito <\/strong>(Connie T Empress<\/strong> had to cancel) whipping the best in soul on the crowd at the storied Subway Soul Club, at Public Assembly in Williamsburg, BK.<\/p>\n

Despite the fact that the area was in the midst of a near-monsoon, which made motoring to Brooklyn a real hoot<\/em>, there was a nice turnout, and by midnight the floor was full of good people soaking up the sounds of soul and cutting themselves what the old folks used to refer to as a slice of rug.<\/p>\n

I have probably said this numerous times, but it bears mentioning once again, I love nothing more than to spin soul and funk for people that like to dance. There is something magical about pulling an especially cool record out of your box, slipping it onto the turntable and watching the crowd react when the sounds make their way out of the speakers.<\/p>\n

Subway Soul Club is really a dancers scene, with people grooving steadily for several hours (I honestly have no idea where some people get the energy), especially to Northern Soul. This was a very appreciative\/receptive crowd who dug what we all were spinning, and the experience was, as you can imagine, exceptionally rewarding.<\/p>\n

The mix you see above is the second set I spun that night, and features a number of favorites, all floor-fillers, including a bunch of things that have had a home in my crates for many years, as well as a few recent acquisitions.<\/p>\n

I also managed to snap a couple of pictures, and while I\u2019m no Scavullo, I think the results manage to capture the vibe fairly well.<\/p>\n

Big thanks go out to Phreddie and our host Lady Dawn<\/strong>, the other DJs (who were uniformly excellent) and especially the dancers, without whom it wouldn\u2019t have been nearly as groovy.<\/p>\n

I hope you dig the sounds, and I\u2019ll be back on Friday with some funk for your weekend.<\/p>\n

If things go as planned, I\u2019ll have some live mixes (and pics) from Massachusetts for you next week.<\/p>\n

See you on Friday<\/p>\n

Peace<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n
