Ian Dewhirst Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 Talk about a monster of a project. It's been almost 2 years in the making but hopefully the end result has been worth it...... The Odyssey: A Northern Soul Time-Capsule Amazon Link:- https://www.amazon.co.uk/Odyssey-Northern-Soul-Time-Capsule/dp/B00JYDGJHM/ref=sr_1_1?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1418927279&sr=1-1&keywords=the+odyssey+northern+soul ‘The Odyssey: A Northern Soul Time Capsule’ is the single most comprehensive overview yet of a truly unique UK musical culture which has now lasted over 45 years and had spread across the world. The current popularity of the film “Northern Soul” and it’s soundtrack plus the attendant publicity within the mainstream media - a UK Top 10 film smash, a UK Top 10 album smash and No.1 DVD smash have well and truly put Northern Soul at the forefront of people’s interest again. This is a very, very exciting musical culture which now seems to be appealing to a younger generation of new fans in their teens who love the energy that Northern Soul provides and have the energy to burn off. But how did it start? What made young teenagers in the north of England in the late 1960s and 1970s switch from the mainstream musical scenes and plunge underground into the darkest recesses of black American Soul music? What made them travel hundreds of miles every weekend to see particular DJs and acts? What made them pay 4 weeks of hard-earned wages for a 7” vinyl single from 1967 that hardly anyone had ever heard of? Welcome to Northern Soul. One of the most enigmatic musical cultures ever to exist is now available to explore in depth. Curated by well-known professional compiler, head of Harmess Records and 1970s Northern Soul DJ, Ian Dewhirst, ‘The Odyssey: A Northern Soul Time Capsule’ is very much a labour of love. The contributors to the project read like a who’s who of Northern Soul’s golden era. Ian Dewhirst and Anglo American’s Tim Brown co-compiled the music and deliberated at length over the myriad of licensing issues. Mike Ritson, publisher of Manifesto magazine, kindly allowed us to use large swathes of his definitive book about Northern Soul, ‘The In Crowd’ to document the history of the scene. Karl White kindly provided us with a summing-up of the post Wigan Casino years, Simon White, journalist and broadcaster, interviewed, supervised and directed the collection of numerous interviews with most of the scene’s best-known characters. Richard Searling interviews the world’s longest-standing and most enigmatic record dealer, John Anderson, as well as squeezing in an interview with Philadelphia International’s Kenny Gamble, who looks through Richard’s collection of his own releases from the 1960’s and sees many of these UK releases for the first time ever! Northern Soul history! Not one, but 2 DVDs. The 160 page book layout was designed by Glen Gunton and the overall package design by Jaffa — both long-serving Northern Soul stalwarts. The music follows the evolvement of Northern Soul, from its early beginnings at Manchester’s Twisted Wheel club in 1968, through to The Golden Torch, Blackpool Mecca, Wigan Casino and Cleethorpes Pier in the 1970s, Stafford Top Of The World and The 100 Club in the 1980s and the huge dearth of Soul weekenders and the 100 Club again from the 1990’s to the present day. Featuring a mind-numbing 230 tracks and over 10 hours of legendary music, all licensed from legitimate sources and all of which have been painstakingly re-mastered and documented within the sleeve-notes. The most comprehensive Northern Soul track-listing ever. ‘The Odyssey: A Northern Soul Time-Capsule’ truly does what it says on the tin.

Frankie Crocker Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 Brilliant Ian. I would like the lot for Christmas but I guess I can hang on for a couple of months.
Pete S Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 My goodness - that has got to be the best compilation ever made. Apart from my 10 hour Wigan special.
Ian Dewhirst Posted December 18, 2014 Author Posted December 18, 2014 Brilliant Ian. I would like the lot for Christmas but I guess I can hang on for a couple of months. LoL, it should have been out for Christmas but that pesky Northern Soul soundtrack has never stopped selling. I didn't want to risk arresting Harmless's biggest selling album ever so February it is.... Ian D
Ian Dewhirst Posted December 18, 2014 Author Posted December 18, 2014 My goodness - that has got to be the best compilation ever made. Apart from my 10 hour Wigan special. Yep, lol. I fhought that when I was going through your track-listings. Great minds etc, etc...a brilliant era helps too! Ian D
Pete S Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 The problem is though - there's not going to be many here I haven't got in some shape or form, so I'd be buying it for the dvd really...and I can't justify paying £75 for that, but for someone who doesn't have such a big collection, it really is the best possible selection, either as a starter, or for someone maybe getting back into it - or just for anyone who appreciates good music.

Actually, you're right to an extent. I have several hundred comps but the quality of the masters isn't always great. Finding the good masters is a task in itself and that's what we've done here. So top notch masters. However, here's the siginifant thing. The Northern Soul soundtrack has unearthed a huge audience, mamy of whom won't have the timw and ferret-like skills that we have to compile the goodies. So this is as good a package as any to get your teeth into and get the real deal. If we get just 10% of the audience who bought Northern Soul: The Soundtrack to invest in The Odyssey: A Northern Soul Time-Capsule then that'll be great. But I think we'll do much better than that touch wood! Merry Crimbo Pete! Ian D

Winsford Soul Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 Congratulations Ian. Must be a relief to be able to finally issue the details of such a mamouth undertaking without any leaks to us lot, especially on here as we normally get to hear a few rumours. Steve
Derek Pearson Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 (edited) As far back as I can remember (which must be touching close to the end of the seventies) every time when the name of Ian Dewhirst came into conversation all I ever heard people say without fail was good things about the man. People used many long flowing words I'd never heard of before - generous was one I distinctly recall mentioned. No matter what the subject was he was always held in very high esteem and the pedestal he was placed on was very high indeed. Nothings changed it's exactly the same today as it was then. Knowing all what's been said about you and I guess you've been thinking about it - I gotta admit it would be a great idea if you could donate a copy of The Odyssey: A Northern Soul Time-Capsule Box Set to the winner of a competition set by you here on Soul Source. I say 3 cheers for Ian - hip hip hoorah, hip hip hoorah, hip hip hoorah, I'm gonna write to my MP straightaway that man should get an OBE for Services To Music. All together now - for he's a jolly good fellow........ Edited December 18, 2014 by Derek Pearson

Our lass was going to get me this for Christmas but as you have delayed it I'll probably end up with socks & slippers now.

[ including a recent purchase from the Dewhirst archive, carl carltons - fighting in the name of love ] as Pete states i do have the lions share of the superb tracks on here . are there any plans to do a scaled down version of the Odyssey with say the dvds and the booklet , for those in a similar position . my wants list has already put me in a similar position to the Russian ECONOMY.! must get out and try a bit of fracking in the back garden. i said FRACKING. SHORTY
Steve S 60 Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Already got this pre-ordered. Amazon will probably drop the price before the actual release date, but even so, not a bad price for eight CDs, two DVDs of never seen before interviews and a book. Great to see the tracks arranged in chronological order of when and where they were played. Nice one Ian.

Derek Pearson Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Derek, would you be good enough to write my obituary please mate...Ian D It would make me very sad to hear of your demise Ian but I'd be honoured to write your obituary. But please try hold on a bit longer - just give it a couple o' weeks after you've got the competition up an' running eh? Derek Thought I'd mention it in passing but have you got any thoughts on somebody looking after your collection at all?

Yep, it would be nice to see a proper release of the Cameo Parkway catalogue. I actually did some of the UK reissues in the 70s - Bobby Paris, Yvonne Baker etc but since then there's only been those dodgy Campark volumes. As it happens I have a new album series commencing next year and since I'm communicating with Abko again I'll try and get a package going..... Ian D
