If anyone one is looking for a good gig this weekend I can recommend Cian Downing + band at The Cluny 2 in Newcastle especially if you like mod/ska sounds. There's a few tickets left for this gig but don't leave it till the last minute.

Midweek Sounds: and it's a couple of new releases from the Heavy Soul label. First up is the latest single from Cian Downing 'Stop The Racists Now'. I'm liking this ska tune and am looking forward to catching Cian live again when his band plays The Cluny 2 in Newcastle in a couple of weeks time.
Next up is the first in a series of 'On The Scene' EP's with the 4 tracks on this one all coming from 1964. First track up was a big fave at Get Hip Shel Naylor's 'One Fine Day'. This tune was written by Dave Davies of The Kinks and thinking about it The Kinks gave some cracking tunes away - 'All Night Stand', 'Nobodys Fool', 'I Go To Sleep' and of course 'One Fine Day'. I'm looking forward to the other EP's in this series.
Also go a CD to play too which came with issue 67 of Heavy Soul! modzine. Some me of my faves in the zine like Paul Bevoir (The Jetset) and The Hornets.

I've put up a Get Hip! playlist on spotify. It's more the recent/current bands & artists that I'm listening to rather than the records that were played at Get Hip although you'll of heard the Tito Ramirez one getting played out on 45 at our night. Had the club still of be going I'd of been looking at booking some of these artists on the playlist for our night.

I've caught The Hornets at a couple of gigs this year. Well worth catching live if you get the chance.
