"Best Retro Soul Club 2003/2004"
"Up-tempo sixties songs you haven't heard before are the fare at Rififi's

and a smallish packed dance floor add up to a rousing evening"

"Souled Out"by Eddie Taylor.
"..the place is packed with girls in eyeliner, knee length pleather boots
and back combed hair, and boys in drainpipes,and starched button down shirts....The
bar is assaulted by a succession of three minute classics from The Magnetics,
The Superiors and Moses Dillard & The Dynamic Showmen......
"but we're not about being exclusionist,...You can turn up in a lampshade
if you want, but for us its all about the music".
But don't worry if you don't know a Pringle sweater from a Quadrophenia
parka, or LJ Reynolds & chocolate Syrup from The Checkerboard Squares, no
one at Subway Soul Club looks down on you. The scruffy bangs tend to get
in the way."

"For years the music I was playing was the music you'd clear a room" says DJ Todd O Phonic Todd. "Now, not only are people now NOT running away. the places are often packed".
