The Nunhead Forum must be very quiet, KH.


Anyway, musical genius for me would be George Clinton, Prince, Stanley Clarke, Roy Ayres, George Duke, Idris Muhammad, Norman Whitfield who also produced the Undisputed Truth, Patrice Rushden, Larry Heard, Lamont Dozier, Donald Byrd, Herbie Hancock, etc.

> Undisputed truth is a Soulie...my oh my


I decided to take the name of The Undisputed Truth soul group as it sounded so great. I'm stunned how many people on this forum got the wrong idea about my name.


Anyway, as youngster I stopped listening to Radio 1 since their music was naff and my interest in quality music just grew and grew. I was heavily into club, jazz funk soul music during the early 80s and bought a number of records on imports. In some cases I could recognise producers or musicians signature notes. I tend to view m&S and the Guardian in the same way as I did with Radio 1. With the Guardian newspaper I know I won't get quality information that I want and with M&S they can't offer me the quality of food I wish to eat. I feel privileged that I can make my own choices without relying on marketing or journalists gibberish. I tend to feel sorry for those who live their life according to the Guardian or what's on tv.

Congratulations UDT - you managed to get the Guardian on to this thread too! Either you are a drone for a very subtle (not to say perverse) viral ad in favour of the Guardian or someone from the paper once borrowed a fiver and never returned it... either way you seem to have a big bug up your arse about it.


Nothing bizarre about the B52s quids - already mentioned Fred Schneider and Ricky Wilson on this thread - and I remember a lot of Burning Spear (dub versions) and local reggae bands that never made it big but all seemed to play the impromptu r.a.r./anti nazi league promoted concerts in the various parks back then.

I won't accept the congratulations as you've seemed to missed the main gist of my post and that belonging to Quids. As a soul boy I know exactly what Quids was saying and I know the period from 79-82 was a great time for Soul, Jazz & Funk music. Also, at the time reggae was just as popular. I'm against commercial tosh like the Guardian, M&S, Starbucks Coffee, and pop music.

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though. Hope some of these might provide leads. https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/137603-home-schooling-advice-anyone-wants-to-do-it-together/#comment-1092093 Very old post but group seems still to exist: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/92044-home-education-local-group/#comment-954837 You could try contacting this forum member: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/325368-classroom-support-for-home-education-community/#comment-1621064 Two of these left for right now: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/events/event/1025-🌟-teens-11-try-painting-sculpture-street-art-at-holiday-workshops/
    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
