"mixed" ? I like Joe Deacon always a great choice of tunes but he never attempted to beat match. You don't need a memory stick or USB to Dj. That's why the decks had adjustable pitch control. You would have thought he might have learnt the time he's been at it.
What can i say , bronze droplets of the good old days. Well done , only constructive crit , it was crying out for cosmo crew "show no shame " who said the drugs didnt work . metro 89 - 95 for me "if i could go back for one night "

went to the metro every week from 91 till the end... best days of my life.. loved everyone there right down too ma man george the toilet attendant. magic place
Same mate thought i was melting into the lavie pan like train spotting only cleaner bog... that's when ecki were eckie tho £15-20 worth every penny... some day's mate 🙏👍
Drogie73 hit the nail on the head for me-I was there late 89 till 95 and it was the weekend I used to look forward to at the Metro in the day.The sky was the limit.Joe deacon mixing wasn,t the best but hell he pulled out all the stops with the best tunes going at the time. Amazing nights and if I could go back for ONE last night.
Without the likes of Joe Deacon , Billy Reid , TOM WILSON , and the rest of the massive DJ's back in the day Music nowadays would be BORING,, Barn Dance Posse !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
calm doon man. i got this aff a mate, in a bundle n that is what it said on the disk. if it's wrong it's wrong. i dont give a shit, the tunes r still class. :-)
On the floor with Joe Deacon... Well mopping the floors with ma headphones on... Brilliant took me back to the daze... Might try and get a pink new yorker fur next week.
I fuckin loved the Metro! I'm sure it's total pish nowadays but organising a bus doon there at the weekend was pretty much what kept us all going through the shitty working week :) Used to head down wi a big squad frae Gourock & Greenock and it was always brilliant when you got a shout aff the DJ ha ha Plus, and let's all be honest here, the E used to be fuckin excellent back then unlike the horse-shit that people take now Headin to see Joe Deacon in Greenock on Friday night 9/8/13 :) Magic xx
i used to travel to the metro from edinburgh every week i wasn't in the jail, shout out to Crosby who made it happen.... what a legacy, bounced out my face for hours, does anyone remenber when we then bought jelly in the car park fi the ayr posse. so glad i lived this. rip joe, only if we had one more eh ✌️
HERE TROOPS THE METRO WAS THE BEST NIGHTCLUB IN SCOTLAND ........ FACT IT WAS IN THE M8 MAGAZINE AND AM FAY SALTCOATS AND JOE DEACON AND BILLY READ WAS THE BEST DJS IN THE METRO AT THAT TIME AND STILL ARE.. IM BIG MIDDY THE STAGE DANCER ..... HERE WE ... HERE WE GO HA HA HA
Sometimes I wish I was still there now, it takes me back, it's sad to see the metro shut n now it's getting refurbished, my memories will be mine from the metro, xx
Hehehe so true Joe can't mix eggs Billy Reid different story some DJ mixing and tunes selection. Fckn loved those day's man so glad i lived that era 🙏👍
This isn’t August 1991 my man it’s much later then that my man. Half the songs hadn’t been released in 91 yet. It’s got A lot of songs from late 92 early 93. Such as Ultra Sonic’s Annihilatiing Rhythm which hadn’t been released & Ultra Sonic didn’t start as a band or play live music until 92 ✌️🕊️✌️
the tunes r good but the mixing is really quite bad u expect better from a dj who been about the scene now i dont whant anyone to get offended by my comments i a am only being honest
haha benny if anyone knows the metro it was you pal lol you were in there as much as meeeee & i worked in it for 7 best years of my liiife :) FACT I know you know !! x
song choice second to none, the mixing on the other hand eeeek and especially which song to song to mix with somewhat questionable , tom wilson was a master at song choice and what to mix with , but he couldn't mix for anything! . he knew that.
Calm doon Stevie, mick is simply saying that joe had the tunes but couldnae mix a pot noodle.. which is true.. but having said that he must of made a mint back then selling them for 5 quid each which I did buy occasionally haha.. go on jd
Exactly, Legendary status why? Any c*nt can play good tunes! One record after another. Tom Wilson wasn't the best at mixing either, George Bowie only slightly better. Think what Joe and Tom would be like now with ALL THE SYNC buttons available now eh!!
joe deacon would still be hopeless. it really isnt difficult to beat mix and he had years to learn. billy reid was the metro real dj. the only thing wrong with the metro was it was joe deacons mixing ability. he was a wedding dj who played at the best club in scotland.
Yeah the tunes are good but how did joe ever make it as a DJ? The mixing is embarrassing even for the time. I’d feel cheated if I paid to see a “DJ” and was hit with mixing like this. Awful man
