Recommended purchase for beach/northern soul fans, a real labour of love by Greg and his family. I had the pleasure of taking Greg and his family to Prestwich and Lowton last year so he could compare the US 60's beach scene to the UK northern soul scene. Dancing was the obvious connection, but the 60's beach scene was much more about live bands, mostly white, who it seems all wanted to sound black. The Rolling Stones fitted perfectly into this scene on their first US tour as their sound was firmly influenced by R&B in those early days. Mark

The beach music scene in the USA in the 1960's centered around The Pad in Ocean Drive, SC. and the Beach Club in Myrtle Beach, SC. as well as the local colleges/universities in NC, SC, VA and GA.
