Tom Wainwright 1995.04.15 @ Haçienda Manchester Easter Weekend


This was a great weekend.  House and disco classics across a 3 hour set.  Donna Summer, Gina Stewart, Frankie Knuckles all mixed to give us one thumping set.  The beauty of Haçienda nights on bank holidays was that Tom And Graeme often stepped away from the more upfront cuts to rummage through the crates pulling out classics to give a true party atmosphere.  Some true Haçienda anthems here, Bump's 'I'm Rushing' and Madonna's 'Vogue' mixed with personal fave Donna Summer's 'Melody of Love' just make me wish I could re-live those nights all over again.  Gotta love a bit of disco too!

Greame Park 1993.04 @ Radio 1 Hot Mix with Brothers In Rhythm & Sasha

A little taster for a double pack tomorrow (Easter Sunday).  This is a hot little mix from 3 off the biggest names in clubland at the time.  Graeme Park just delivered tasty treats time after time.  Such was his influence and such was the pull of the Haçienda that he was invited to play on Radio 1 by Pete Tong.  Friday and Saturday's were essential listening back in the day, they certainly provided us with our soundtrack for the weekend, Pete played the most upfront cuts, inports and white labels - so far ahead of the game thta set the template for dance on radio  for years to come.  Graeme plays another of my favs, Eddie Flashin' Foulkes 'Turn me Out' pure class loved this in The Haçienda.  Thanks to Brady for the original share and the track list, it is a great set.

Graeme Park & Mike Pickering 1990.01.19 @ Haçienda Manchester Nude

For me one of the defining sounds can be heard in tracks like Jillian Mendez's 'Dont Know What Your Missing' this dub is phenominal and to hear that simple piano hook in the Haç used to send the floor into a hands in the air frenzy.  Coupled with Ricky 'Get Down' Garcia 'Put Your Hands Together' another personal favourite, Carltons 'Do You Dream' and you have the makings of a perfect night - as always in the Haçienda

Tom Wainwright 1993.05 @ Haçienda Manchester

The first of several Tom Wainwright that I am adding to BLOG51 over the next few weeks leading up to Easter.  This has been on my stereo system all morning.  Gritty US House with funky vocals.  Tom was headlining on a regular basis around this time with Graeme off playing venues like Decandance, Renaissance and Ministry Of Sound.  You can hear why in this set, building with instrumentals, a few more commercial elements and pure solid US vocals and dubs.  Excellent stuff for a spring morning.

Mike Pickering 1991.07 @ Haçienda Manchester Shine

I was listening to this one today whilst cooking and thought as I haven't had a Mike Pickering set for a while on Blog51 That I would list this.  The track list alone is excellent, possibly July Possibly August.  Often I get asked if I preferred the Saturday night or the Friday night?  If I was totally hoest I would say the Nude nights when it was both Park and Pickering but Saturday nights were our night as I loved the vocal house that Parky played but having said this, this set is a fine example of why we did both a Friday and a Saturday in 1991 if we could.  To be more exact it would have been a Wednesday, Friday and a Saturday!  Friday's weren't as glitzy, more dress down and sweat affairs.  

This set contains a few of my favourites too, Optik's 'The Chance' needs to be in everyones' vinyl collection, a dream to blend in and out behind a vocal to build a set, Yolanda's excellent 'Living for the Night', and many of us did, cheesy I know but totally true,  Arthur Baker's Let There be Love' and the wicked 'A Roller Skating Jam Called Saturday's' by De La Soul to name a few.

Feel free to download and experience a Friday 'Shine' night at the Hacçienda

Graeme Park 1993 @ Haçienda Manchester Tape 2

I don't know the exact date of this one, to be honest I don't remember much about 1993 except that we were spending our clubbing moments in between Venus in Nottingham on a Friday and the Haçienda on a Saturday.  This set is dirty simple as that.  Pumping vocal, deep house and garage that flows relentlessly.  Definitely a set to be played late at night.  If anyone can let me know roughly what month it was from it would be appreciated.

Greg Wilson 1983.09 @ Haçienda Manchester Freak A Zoids

This is something a little bit special.

1983 Haçienda Manchester. Wow. How I wish I had experienced this.  We all know who Greg is, widely respected for his ground breaking re-edits and his sets are well sort after and prized.  Go on every music forum and there is something about Greg.  Now take your self back to the 1983. Indie was the main stay around Manchester, grandad coats and collar-less shirts.  Likened to a Gothic Cathedral by Tony Wilson the description could be a fair one of rainy bleak Manchester and the Haçienda Nightclub.  However, there was a ray of sunshine, a glimmer of the future of the Haçienda - dance.  Designed by Ben kelly and Peter Saville, the Haçienda took it's influence from New York clubs such as the Loft, Paradise Garage and Danceteria of which the latter influenced Mike Pickering's choice of music policy.  Amongst the Indie nights was this, something utterly brilliant that was to determine the future influences and music policy of the Haçienda from Pickerings Nude nights to the advent of acid house although few probably thought it at the time.  Greg Wilson played throughout 1983 on a Friday night providing a refreshing slice of funk and electro to the otherwise gloomy indie policy.

Broadcast on Piccadilly radio in Manchester live from the Haçienda on a Friday Night in September 1983 you could easily imagine yourself in one of those New York clubs.  Including one of Greg's signiture mixes, New Order's 'Confused Beats' and Rocker's Revenge 'Walking On Sunshine' this Funk Electro based mix just sends me... add to this Phreek's 'Weekend' and the message becomes clear, ground breaking innovative funk and well ahead of it's time.  The only place that this could have happened was in the Haçienda, a place for DJ's that are just that extra bit special and ahead of the game.Once again, I really wish I had been there that night.

Thank you to Greg Wilson for providing this mix - It is something special.
