OUTTA SIGHT pay homage to the original R&B maverick, and British music industry innovator, Guy Stevens with 16 original tracks culled from the DJs ‘Scene Club’ playlist.

When R&B fanatic Guy Stevens was given the Monday night dead spot at the tiny basement club in Ham Yard, R&B and the embryonic Mod scene, came of age. The former city insurance broker had acquired a formidable black American record collection and he was intent on spreading his R&B gospel to the ‘in’ crowd.

The Scene Club quickly established itself as the place to be seen and the place to see the coolest ‘faces’ in town. It was also THE no.1 spot in the West End to hear the very best that American R&B had to offer courtesy of Stevens who span the discs from his raised, temple-like, DJ booth packed with 45s, 78s and LPs.

Here, we present an authentic sounbite from the early days of the club that would shape the UK soul scene.

“KEEP THE FAITH”

A uniquely themed set featuring legendary R&B tracks from the playlist of Scene DJ and R&B maverick Guy Stevens

“The Scene Club was the epicentre of the R&B boom. You had the best of the white R&B bands, you had Guy Stevens playing black music on Monday nights and you had black artists coming over, the whole thing coalesced in the Scene Club.” Norman Jopling

An important collection tracing the birth of soul and the evolution of Northern Soul
