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.

      Assistance Dogs - Autism: any experiences?

      By JMK · Posted

      https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.

      Missing Cat

      By jeffersjd · Posted

      Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
