Yes, true, Elaine has NEVER said its the definitive story of Northern Soul. Thats the work of critics, publicists and Chinese Whispers. Its definitely about the characters (Northern Souls) as well as the scene, as you can't have a good film or play without them. Its also a socio-historic snapshot of a time I certainly remember, seen through the character eyes/perspectives.

There can never be a definitive film about Northern Soul, as its definition varies for many different people. I would also disagree about Wigan being the centre of everything....thats one opinion and many others would argue and say the whole scene was alive at that time and name venues that illustrated that. The same with soundtracks ....everyone has there own etc. But not everyone has the soul, love and passion to sacrifice a large part of their life to express, in film, their version of events, which again, cannot be argued with, as its their version and built on a their experience. I urge everyone who thinks they can do it, to go and try to do something as epic and then you will really, really see, what soul means. I did a play, Elaine did a film. The question to ask yourself is what are you going to do? Talk is cheap as we all know, but making an embodied experience and memory into a a tangible expression to share with others is an incredible achievement and takes a big heart and soul.

It had nothing to do with Kung Fu. More to do with kids replicating teddy boy backdrops and copying travelling soul artists and invention.

SOLD

I have one in mint condition in a company sleeve. £40 + PP

at £300 now.

Stands at £250 . This tune is not going to turn up as easily as some of the stuff that sketching ridiculous prices at the moment.

Just an exceptional superb, genre busting, rare 45. One on Nev's plays at the moment I think. A very reluctant sale and I will take offers on it until Tuesday. Its vg+ and has a few small hisses but doesn't affect it when played out. The B side is not too good in terms of condition Im afraid, But hey, its a very rare find and this is the side. paulsadot@hotmail.com

Good , exciting, soulful, underplayed or semi-known, unknown tunes are the way forward. There are loads of them out there and people are starting to listen apparently. Thats what keeps what was originally a forward thinking scene moving forward.

I bow to your trainer knowledge mate...i have no recollection that far back. I only know i used whatever worked on the dance floor for me.

I was 15, but looked 12. ha! I think they might have been Puma .....totally agree with the floor to sloppy and the need for trainers.

Basically, each to there own and I know i used trainers back in 76 (see pic). Did a lot of acro then and you need grip for that. So with talc and trainers you got a balance. But some want leather to float or spin without talc etc. I used to take brogues and trainers and use what i felt was right that night. So many ways of dancing so going to be different footwear. Some of the best dancers I've seen have been women just casually floating around in heels .

James Pogson has one for sale.

I love Melbourn, it has a bunch of very knowledgable and soulful collectors and Dj's. As i have a 21 year old daughter there, i have visited a lot! Sam Goldie switched me on to many records as did Callum Flack. Then you have Alex White and Frankie Driscoll both with great collections. Vince runs a fun night at the Cherry so visit that. As far as digging, these guys have already dug and i would be surprised if you find anything. I did turn up a few copies of Bethea - Ghetto Love in 2002 along with some original Jon Lucien LPs (rare), but apart from that not a lot. My John Harris came from OZ and these guys have great stuff to trade, but you need to take great stuff to tempt them and definitely not old school Northern Soul. Great city and friendly crowd of people whenever you go out to a night.
