An Interview with Richard Searling, Manchester, 13th April 2004 Manchester Digital Music Archive "One of the leading lights of the Northern Soul movement, Richard initially made his name at Va-Va's in Bolton, where he gained major kudos for unearthing one of the scene's defining tracks, 'Tainted Love' by Gloria Jones (subsequently to become a multi-million selling cover version by Soft Cell). Forming one of the most famous DJ partnerships of all, when he hooked up with Russ Winstanley at Wigan Casino, Richard is a Soul aficionado of the highest order."

Roll over Beethoven - The Chess Records Saga Legends Chicago's Chess Records was one of the greatest labels of the post-war era, ranking alongside other mighty independents like Atlantic, Stax and Sun. From 1950 till its demise at the end of the 60s, Chess released a myriad of electric blues, rock 'n' roll and soul classics that helped change the landscape of black and white popular music. Chess was the label that gave the world such sonic adventurers as Chuck Berry, Muddy Waters, Bo Diddley, Howlin' Wolf and Etta James. In this documentary to mark the label's 60th anniversary, the likes of Jimmy Page, Mick Hucknall, Public Enemy's Chuck D, Paul Jones and Little Steven, as well as those attached to the label such as founder's son Marshall Chess, pay tribute to its extraordinary music and influence. The film reveals how two Polish immigrants, Leonard and Phil Chess, forged friendships with black musicians in late 1940s Chicago, shrewdly building a speciality blues label into a huge independent worth millions by the end of the 1960s. Full of vivid period detail, it places the Chess story within a wider social and historical context - as well as being about some of the greatest music ever recorded, it is, inevitably, about race in America during these tumultuous times.

Details of a new vinyl lp release from Outta Sight Records were found blowing around that may be of interest. Here's the blurb direct from their website... THE ONLY WAY IS UP! Move On Up To Northern Soul OSVLP025 WE ARE TRULY BLESSED! Pastor Smokie Norful, two-time Grammy award winner, leads proceedings with the FIRST EVER UK release of his Motown Modern Soul Anthem “I’ve Got What You Need”. DeeJay’s stand up and take note, if you subscribe to “OVO” (original vinyl only) this is your opportunity to pack the floor – Side 1, Track 1 – it couldn’t be simpler! You really don’t need any other reason to buy this album, but, how about our title track, the original version of “The Only Way Is Up” by the late great Otis Clay – Side 2, Track 1 – another guaranteed floorfiller. It is of course familiar to everyone for the chart-topping 1988 cover-version by Yazz and the Plastic Popualtion. Another sure fire winner is the Cornelius Brothers’ Gold Disc “Too Late Turn Back Now” which caught the imagination of the rare soul scene in the Nineties and remains a firm dance floor favourite today. We must also be grateful for the first ever independent license of Jerry Butler’s awesome “Stop Steppin‘ On My Dreams” which first came to light on his 1972 ‘Spice Of Life’ album. And we haven’t even mentioned Jesse James, Jackey Beavers, Alice Clark, Gloria Scott and the original and best version of the ‘Cleopatra Jones’ song “It Hurts So Good” by Katie Love. “The Only Way Is Up!” SIDE 1 Smokie Norful - I've Got What You Need Cornelius Brothers and Sister Rose - Too Late To Turn Back Now The Independents - Lucky Fellow Jesse James - If You Want A Love Affair Jerry Butler - Stop Steppin' On My Dreams Wendell Watts - You Girl Katie Love and The Four Shades Of Black - It Hurts So Good SIDE 2 Otis Clay - The Only Way Is Up The Jackey Beavers Show - We're Not Too Young To Fall In Love The Fantastic Puzzles - Come Back (Part 1) Alice Clark - Don't You Care Gloria Scott - (A Case Of) Too Much Love Makin Chris Bartley - Tomorrow Keeps Shining On Me Sonny Turner and Sound Limited - Now That You're Gone More information including purchase options https://www.outtasight.co.uk/#!/THE-ONLY-WAY-IS-UP/p/180369774/category=40724010 Video Playlist - Enjoy our playlist of selected tracks from the album A clip from the 2018 Spike Lee movie 'BlackkKlansman' featuring the Cornelius Brothers "Too Late To Turn Back Now"
