The Gang that dig Doo Lang

THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO DA DOO RON RON

Established in October 1998, Da Doo Ron Ron is a 60's orientated club night with a unique slant.

The club's musical menu is a femme-centric celebration of 60's girl groups such as The Supremes, Ronettes, Marvelettes, Shangri-La's, Chiffons, Crystals etc, sassy soul sisters like Aretha, Dusty Springfield, Maxine Brown, Brenda Holloway and playful popstrels in the vein of Petula Clark, Lesley Gore and Helen Shapiro. You will never hear a male lead vocal at DDRR!

The essence of Da Doo Ron Ron lies in the sheer danceability of great tunes. We aim to fill that dancefloor! Although the majority of these discs are over 30 years old, they possess a potent vitality and work in the same way big house anthems work, epic, sweeping orchestral sounds, effortlessly uplifting vocals, singalong choruses and relentless, pounding beats.
The club ethos is strictly non-elitist, which means that as well as lesser known northern soul and 60's pop rarities you also get to enjoy instantly recognisable tunes such as 'Be My Baby' by The Ronettes, 'Love Is Like An Itching In My Heart' by The Supremes, 'Give Him A Great Big Kiss' by The Shangri-La's and 'These Boots Are Made For Walking' by Nancy Sinatra.

One of the great myths perpetrated by the snobby, chin-stroking, fraternity is that "Obscure automatically equals brilliant".

This is patently bollocks!

A jaw-dropping tune is a jaw-dropping tune whether it sold a million and topped the US charts (Diana Ross & The Supremes 'Love Child' for instance) or shifted a handful of copies and was re-discovered years later (e.g The Flirtations 'Nothing But A Heartache').

So, for a fabulous night of truly thrilling, goose-pimple inducing, utterly unpretentious 60's sounds, make directly for DA DOO RON RON.
Here endeth the First Lesson!

Amen,


Chris D King
