"I
might play some fucked up shit tonight, seriously,” says Radio 1's
Trevor Nelson. “I might play Kool
and the Gang or something, I dunno.” Well, I don't think he did
bust out any “Get Down On It” or “Joanna”, but the Radio 1
hip hop DJ did dish up some underplayed classics, including
SoulIISoul's Fair Play and many others.
Last
night was Mr Nelson's third appearance in The Milton Club for their monthly Soul Purpose
event, which has featured an ever-expanding list of high-profile DJ
and singers. He didn't come on until quite late, letting resident
Justin Fry take command for the first
few hours. The night got busier later on than usual, with a lot of
women filling the club. Mr Nelson eventually busted out a few
rarities from the 90s hip hop scene, setting a great mood. He didn't
seem to pay much attention to the customers, though, and my attempts
to get a picture with him were mostly in vain due to the impenetrable
crowd near the DJ booth.
That
said, there was a great atmos. I've been a Milton Club member for a
year now and it's a place where I can always see friendly faces.
