Personally i regard northern soul as a retro scene , a hip happening scene it ain't, stopped being that decades ago surely, just a way of having a laugh, I'm in my 65th year & I'm lucky enought to be fit & when I go out I celebrate that fact . Rare/deep soul now that's a different matter , Doris Duke 'I don't care anymore ' boy oh boy anyone that's ever had their heart broken try & keep it together whilst listening to that !

Thanks for the tip, just listened to Doris Duke

Modern Soul......

Now there is a term that needs explaining to the 'non soul brigade' when you put a 50 year old record on. 

 

'Keep the change'

That's a good point, but it's getting away from the original question. Maybe it needs asked and discussed as a fresh subject?

Randy Cozens (I think it was Randy) defined Modern Soul as being anything recorded after midnight on 31st December 1969.

I reckon we've got enough to worry about without terminology being added to the list

Incomplete point.

I agree...the term NS and its trademarks are a debate within a niche group.

MS would involve multi millions of SOUL fans unless only used as a sub division of NS.

Keep the Faith

Is it sometimes used as a term of affection between old friends. A nod to days gone by?

A sign of the Times.....

A coffee mug replaces a beer glass and in case you get a bit forgetful, your name is on it, so you remember who you are:)

Probably more use these days than a personalised talc container!

The KTF phrase really caught on in the U.S.  after Adam Clayton Powell started using it-
