The Groove
Saturday January 31st, 2015 with ELORIOUS CAIN
Ottawa beatz

The photograph is of the unused lobby of the abandoned 1200 seat movie cinema at Place de Ville: another classic example of missed opportunities in Ottawa. So many amazing and talented singers, musicians and producers have released disco music from Ottawa with varying results. Many, like Max Graham and Fred Everything have had some levels of success in Europe or Montreal. Fred Everything grew up in Hull before becoming successful first in Montreal. A Tribe Called Red has become something of a national treasure. Unfortunately some of these artists have struggled to get noticed. Emily Jones, Trevor Walker and Teknobrat have all contributed to CKCUFM hosting shows. This show doesn't feature all of the Ottawa area disco artists. Missing are the Chill/Ambient, Illbient, Soukouss, Goa/Psytrance, Funk, Reggae and HipHop artists to name a few. Like the potential venue pictured, Ottawa doesn't have enough places where artists can appear live and not enough discotheques where their music could be heard.

That theatre you mentioned was visited by Tom Jones back in the early 70's. My mom was working there that day and got his signature and a kiss on the cheek!

The Souljazz Orchestra doesn't play disco. They're an afro beat band which is jazz. Get your facts right.

If you seek a labeling
Donald , this is clearly your first time listening to The groove, Or your just really hard headed about your views and imposing them on others. Regardless hope you enjoyed the show for what you heard and not your definition.

If you seek a labeling
No i wont put my name but thank you for telling everyone who you are. if that is your real name Hector Gorioto no offence to Donald not calling him out in a rude way just stating that opinion are just that. Thank again Hector but being that guy to call everyone out for rudeness, now go wait at the back of the line.

I bought a Cravo E Canelo cd at Compact Music and it had the "Shake" song and other boring songs. You played tracks I want to get and play in my car.
