  4. This is the day one post for the Day One - Northern Soul - An Illustrated History Competition Please read this article for full details on the book release and this competition thread and how it works https://www.soul-source.co.uk/articles/soul-news/northern-soul-an-illustrated-history-out-now-competition-r2774 Acclaimed photographer and director Elaine Constantine has brought the movement to life in her film Northern Soul - and that film was the starting point for this book, Northern Soul: An Illustrated History. However, what started out as a project largely comprising of Constantine's stunning on-set photography, featuring her young, talented cast and highly authentic production, has turned into a unique illustrated history of Northern Soul. In its final form, the beautiful new photography holds the book together thematically, but its real depth lies in the material from the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s that Elaine and Gareth have researched and pulled together. https://www.soul-source.co.uk/articles/soul-news/northern-soul-an-illustrated-history-out-now-competition-r2774 The idea is that each day we offer a draw for one copy of the just released Northern Soul - An Illustrated History Competition To be entered in this draw .... all members have to do is each day like the relevant competition post eg this one today just "like" the post and you are in the draw today same tomorrow and same Saturday Easy ... like away

  6. A dual post just to pass on two soul related news items First is that today see's the official release of Northern Soul: An Illustrated History This has been mentioned on here a fair few times over the last year or so and today see's the official release day arrive. A more detailed site article will follow in a day or two, but for now here's a few images and some release text from the publishers The story of Northern Soul is one of practically total immersion, dedication and devotion, where the plain concept of the 'night out' was elevated to sacramental dimensions. Where devotees pushed their bodies, their finances and sometimes their minds to brutal and unforgiving extremes. For those who went through that involvement every test of faith or endurance was worth bearing. - From Northern Soul: An Illustrated History. 'It was a drugs scene, it was a clothes scene. It was about dancing. It came out of this thing. It was about pills that made you go fast. To go fast to make the scene happen.' - Chris Brick In the late 1960s, a form of dance music took a feverish hold on the UK, finding its heart in the north of England. The music of 1960s-70s black American soul singers combined with distinctive dance styles and plenty of amphetamines to create what became known as Northern Soul - a scene based around all night, alcohol-free club nights, arranged by the fans themselves - setting the blueprint for future club culture. Northern Soul tapped into a yearning for individual expression in northern teenagers, and exploded into a cultural phenomenon that influenced a generation of DJs, songwriters and designers for decades to come. Acclaimed photographer and director Elaine Constantine has brought the movement to life in her film Northern Soul - and that film was the starting point for this book, Northern Soul: An Illustrated History. However, what started out as a project largely comprising of Constantine's stunning on-set photography, featuring her young, talented cast and highly authentic production, has turned into a unique illustrated history of Northern Soul. In its final form, the beautiful new photography holds the book together thematically, but its real depth lies in the material from the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s that Elaine and Gareth have researched and pulled together. Available now at ... http://www.amazon.co.uk/Northern-Soul-An-Illustrated-History/dp/0753541912 The Second bit of news is that thanks to the publishers Soul Source can offer to all members a chance to win 1 of 3 fresh copies of this new release. 3 Copies of Northern Soul: An Illustrated History to be won!

  9. The website Daily Bulletin features an article by David Allen titled 'Northern Soul fans dig Southern California song' Which concerns itself with words from past song writer Dominic Di Giamarino” who wrote the popular Johnny Vanelli track - 'Seven Days Of Loving You' While the article does take a familiar well trodden path, it does feature some interesting info on how the song come about and the authors experiences. A few preview clips follow and the full article which also features some words by Kents Ady C can be read via the link that follows the previews No one is more surprised than its writer, retiree Dominic Di Giamarino of Upland. He says he’s never collected a dime from the song, which sank upon release in 1968. Then in 2011, after he mentioned to a friend that he used to try his hand at writing songs, his friend Googled him – correctly typing “Dominic Di Giamarino” must have taken the better part of an afternoon – and reported to an astonished Di Giamarino that “Seven Days of Loving You” was online. In the 1960s, toiling as a draftsman for North American Aviation in La Palma, he fooled around with music on the side along with other musically inclined co-workers. One, Johnny Vanelli, was a courier who in his off-hours was a lounge singer. The link to the article...

  21. Had a quick pass on about a interview with Jimmy James in the new issue of Record Collector. Been told its about Jimmy James talking about his career and upcoming Uk tour with his hero Ben E King Clip below, the link follows (be aware that you need to sub it seems to read the full interview online) Midway through interviewing Jimmy James at his home in north-west London, the phone rings. It’s his ex-Vagabonds mate Count Prince Miller, calling to chew the fat. Back in the mid-60s, when mod soul was at its sweaty but stylish height, The Vagabonds duelled with Geno Washington’s Ram Jam Band to deliver the most adrenaline-fuelled live show. The Prince handled the Geno-style antics. “He was the ultimate,” laughs James. “We developed this rapport. As soon as I’d finish a song he’d take control of the mic, talking away, while I’d be telling the band what we were doing next. I never had the patter... http://recordcollectormag.com/articles/179553
