Grand Tourism are a group of boys who know their bass; slung way low on the ocean floor beneath the shimmering waves of "Hybrid Story" and "Sweet Sitar Street," bombing down from overhead atop the eerie keys of "Le Surboomer," and creeping like ivy up the walls of your consciousness on "Act of Love." The band's instinct for vocals are slightly less dependable. Jazz-folk legend Terry Callier's soulful croon sweetens "Les Courants d'Air," and Ken Norris's fresh, unadorned reading on "Act of Love" practically makes the album, but Angie B. on "Romantic Hold Up" and the uncredited guy who won't shut up on "Sweet Sitar Street" don't make the cut with deliveries that are far too contrived for an album that so often speaks to the simple pleasures of laidback, funky house.

@@k-yk-y5044 Indeed !
I went to Arcade Records for the first time I 'think' it was 1983, and myself and my friend were the only two white people in the shop, which had about 15 black lads in there.
We were only young teenagers (14) and I was a bit nervous, but I need not have worried. There was a DJ playing records in the shop, and I went up to ask the shop assistant "can I have this one playing now" and bam he went straight to it. I think I ended up buying 5 records just from hearing stuff being played in the shop that day, and everyone seemed friendly, and a few of the lads spoke to us, which was great.
I went there once a month for the next couple of years, and never had any trouble at all.
I went to Selectadisc in the early 90's to buy rave music, and again, it was a great shop, everyone was friendly.
I did always have a look in HMV too, near the Broadmarsh, but obviously it didn't have the proper underground tunes in there, just some of the more commercial rave tunes.
Happy days !
The only trouble we ever had really (as 14 year olds) was when we went to skin a joint up on the skate park near the Hyson Green flats, and somebody started shooting at us with an air rifle, the twats lol !
Peace..

Also, seeing how busy Broadmarsh and the adjoining Lister Gate used to be in the 90s really brings back memories. Of course before online shopping really became a thing you simply had to go into town to get anything. Clumber street, and particularly the pedestrian crossing at the northern end, linking to the Victoria Centre, was always absolutely rammed full of people.

Happy memories of a city I barely recognise any more. And I don't mean the buildings. I mean the soul. I was 25 in 1993. Absolutely loved it then. I'm actually enjoying the relative peace of lockdown and the feel of the streets without dodging cars and breathing in polluted air.

22:19 - That was the Wednesday 1st September 1993 edition (Issue number: 35,736) of the Nottingham Evening Post, although it is the midday edition seen being printed here. The version on the British Newspaper Archive is the Evening city edition which has a slightly different front page and slightly different news on it. I love how the page is put together like a jigsaw puzzle and that it has a negative like a photograph does.

On the front cover, the frogmen were still hunting for Lee Metcalfe when the midday edition was published, but sadly, the evening edition of that day's paper mentioned that a body had been found in the search. The article about Nottingham Omnibus (remember them?) "parodying" Nottingham City Transport's bus services and were causing a lot of Health and Safety concerns with the public remains the same in both. I for one, had never set foot inside an Omnibus vehicle at the time and I was always loyal to NCT.

Dennis McCarthy was my hero as a radio presenter - it was like a local institution had gone forever when he had passed away in January 1996.

I would still rather live in those times than the present...

@Fritha71

In 1993 barely anyone had internet of any kind, hahah. I was 21 that year and might have heard the word "world wide web" for the first time then or the year after. 1993 was also the first time I was encountered with that device called a "mouse" because I didn't have a computer yet at home, even though I was a student at the university. Internet started to become more widespread in the late 90s and especially early 00s. I got my first computer with an internet connection in July 2001.

That little road ahead of you at 1:19 is paved now with a tram track going across you. You wouldn’t be able to get there by train if you where from north Nottinghamshire like me then until 2 years later, Basically stopped my dad going to watch Forest when the trains stopped in the 1960s. Also That indoor market is dead with half the stalls empty.

When you used to be able to drive around the city centre, so much better. Wish those days would return but too many deliberate bottle necks and the Trinity Square development took three lanes of traffic out of a key area will not make it likely. With the council decision to pedestrianise Colin Street and make a lot of Canal Street Bus only the city centre will slowly die.

Very interesting, thanks for uploading this.
It looks so old fashioned but it's only 1993!?!
The workplace was really very male wasnt it? And not very multicultural even though Nottingham was and is a diverse place.

Shame that this didnt cover black churches in Nottingham and Heatwave Radio a black music station. Multicultural organisations, Sikh Temples and schools etc etc
I suppose they couldnt cover everything.

It made Nottingham look way more white than it was, I was born and bred in Notts many moons ago... so I know.

@unclealbert9257

As if that would be your only takeaway from this program. Guess what the UK used to 98.5% white. It hasn’t always been “multicultural” like you say. It’s a scam to wash away the national identity. Of course this only happens in white countries.

Andy Batson only racist is the original commenter. Shes annoyed by seeing too many white people. Literally dictionary definition of racist. Although the term racist doesn’t ever mean racist anymore does it.
