Sinister: Northern Soul On The Radio

Hello All,

It seems a tad obligatory to be a bit of a Northern Soul
aficionado at the moment. Quite right too, I suppose. But if
you're feeling a bit insecure at not really being hip to what
all this classic Northern grooves malarky's about, then those
clever peeps at Radio 2 have got a treat for you. At 9pm on
Wednesday evening there's some programme called "Dancing
all night" (I think) which may be a Northern Soul documentary
or it may just play Northern Soul tunes for an hour or two.
Either way, it'll probably be good and I'm going to listen and
that's about it. If you want to buy lots of nice compilations and
you're still a bit of a vinyl freak then Kingbee Records on
Wilbraham Rd in Chorlton have loads in the rare second-hand
bit. Even though they're in the 'rare' bit they're still mostly 8-10
pounds each. And if you have any friends who can access the
Granada TV archives they did a good documentary sometime
in the 70s at the height of the Wigan Casino's popularity.
Having read Peter Miller's description of "TRUE" Northern
soul fans, I can only assume he's already seen this.

Er, Keep the Faith!!
Love...John
