I think theres quite a few thinking like that .. There is younger people abroad in their 20's and now early 30's into it .. perhaps the 3rd genaration uk mods are northern souls new blood ?
I agree Dave , I was genralzing again sorry !! .. However I did witness a a old friend of mine trying to explain to some USA soul fans why he only liked soul music made before 31/12/1969 , it was quite funny
I always thought is was a Jazz Funk Soul classic really .. I was shocked at the good dancefloor reaction that these sort of sounds had at Kent Soul .. as was 60's Mafia type Bearsy
So have you just got into Soul in the last few years and ventured out to some events .. I'm sure Bearsy can start the ball rolling here , his enthusiasm knows no bounds
