Sam is back on Scottish soil to join Shaun and the rest of the vitamins crew in the studio for a 2 hour special dedicated to the Glasgow institution of Thursday nights up The Arty.

Featuring interviews and selections from Dema from Freakmoves, Hushpuppy from Record Playerz, Ben from Mixed Bizness, Andrew Devine and Felonious Munk; this is a documentation of 30 years of dancing in the soon to be demolished and much loved Vic Bar.

Also joining Shaun & Sam in the studio is vitamins family member S-Type who will be previewing some of his new material ahead of his set at The Vitamins Art School Takeover this Thursday.

How many £1 pints of Tennent's have you consumed over the years? ? What was your favourite era, guest, night? Bob or Brian?

Note: Apologies for the sound quality during the first hour. We managed to fix it by flipping the on/off swtich while having a 30 second silence for the Art School's passing.

Let us know your stories.

Vitamins // 01.08.10 // House Perty / Boom Monk Ben

This is another chunk of the recording from the vitamins launch night, this time Boom Monk Ben's set.

Picture a tenement living room rammed full of sweaty aggy 19 year olds under the command of a pair of steaming MCs (Shaun fae Solar and Sam Murray). TAPS AFF. UP ON SHOULDERS. OK. WE NEED SOME MORE GIRLS IN HERE....

round 1 - house perty

Vitamins // 02.07.10 // House Perty / Jongerre and Darrell

"LESSS GOOO SHAAWTAYYZ"

The boys charmed the neighbours, blacked out the windows, got all carpets and soft furnishings to fuck, filling two floors and the garden -back lane entrance only. The garden to the stairs to the main party room were rammed with Glasgow's most up for it. Jongerre and Darrell come into full force with their most rowdy dubstep, grime, booty, garage and hiphop tunes.
