MartynJJ Posted August 23, 2012 Posted August 23, 2012 so you must be the journo from the local rag then Coops ?? lol missing you on Facebook my friend, gutted when I saw you had finally gone for a while 1
Irish Spinner Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 Anyone can photograph myself orJane at the venues we attend we both look forward to see,in the photos In fact Bill I think you took a couple of shots of Jane dancing at Bury and she would love a copy of it which she would pay you .The photos people have taken at venues over the past 40 years are part of the social history of the Northern Soul Scene and are in my opinion a very important part of the history of the UK for future generations Regards Ian Cunliffe As Ian has rightly said photo's are a very important part of the social history of the soul scene. Taking photos at a soul venue is more acceptable today than ever before,as long as respect for the subject is taken into consideration. The earliest photos I know to be taken where taken in The Wheel on Whitworth St from 69/71 by my gud friend Norman Rogers from Cambridge. Now that was at a time if you pulled a camera out, without any one knowing who you where, or why you where in a soul all niter with a camera you would have been out on the street before you got knocked out less your camera. Norman also snapped pics in Saints & Sinners Brum & Bletso, North Hants. Many of Normans picture's have found there way into books and videos clips on YouTube. Thanks to the internet not many ever asked Normans permission once they got into the public domain. Not that he would ever take a penny. Its just nice to be asked. So many thanks to him and others who have had permission to snap away for the pleasure of all and as record of a little piece of Northern Soul history because that and memories is probably all we will have left to pass on of days gone by.

Guest bill storey Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 (edited) well this is a big thread, I haven't been on here for a while but thought I'd have a nosey and am amazed at the number of comments. I love the work of messers Cooper, Leedham and Johnston. I will continue to take pics at the nights I attend I hope to capture the scene in a positive light, showing the true size and emotion of our Northern Soul world. I will do my upmost to gain the permission of all individuals taken as subject matter and if you don't want your photo taken please just tell me, we're all mean't to be on the scene for the same reason, which is why my camera is generally sweat stained. I am a big soul fan and can be found on the floor at ever doo I attend. Looking forward to trying to capture the essence of Northern Soul in 2012 at the next Stoke allnighter. Hope to see ya all there. KTF Edited September 11, 2012 by bill storey
