The
New Drifters at The
Early Christmas Cracker Party -
25th November 2000
|
Following
the sad death of Johnny Moore 2 years ago, the
new Drifters featuring Ray Lewis, continue to
bring you the ever popular sound of The Drifters
into a new decade.
Ray
Lewis sang alongside Johnny Moore & Ben E. King
when they frequently visited the old California
Ballroom in Dunstable, Ray Lewis sang on hits
like Saturday Night at the Movies, Kissing in
the Back Row & Up on the Roof.
Once
again it is time to come along to sing & dance
the night away to all the old classic sounds of
The Drifters.
|
Get Smart,
a 10
piece up and coming soul band, supported the night.
Sid Hudson the host was playing all the soul sounds
of the 60's & 70's, and top jazz funk DJ
|

Louie
Martin played a 2 hour set upstairs with JellyBean
playing either side.
Louie
Martin hosted the Cali in it's final years and went
on to make Didoz the hottest soul club in East Anglia.
He became a part of the legendary funk mafia which
revolutionised the soul scene in the 70's &
80's, made up of top dj's like Chris Hill, Robbie
Vincent, and Froggy to name but a few. Louie has
enjoyed lots of succcess on the airwaves and still
loves more than anything playing his set of old
classics at the Cali-r. |
