It started as a strictly-vinyl strictly-'60s night in a room that soon ran out of space for dancers, and now Long Beach’s soul-and-more night Secret Affair is celebrating the big 1-0―that’s ten non-stop years of hip-shaking soul-controlling record selecting, which is very worthy indeed in the here-tonight-gone-tomorrow world of club promotion. For this particular blowout the Secret agents are deploying a special all-star set of guest DJs and longtime Secret Affair supporters: '60s 45 monster Rick Barzell, the unstoppable funk-soul-and-more polymath Clifton Weave (who you’ll know from every DJ set that ever got you dancing), and reggae/dub night Crucial’s locally legendary Brian Robertson. Come ready for anything and―since they’ve had ten years to prepare―everything.
