hi all,just been reading a post on fb about being at college in the 70s and all they did mainly was listen to northern soul on live tapes from the nighters they went to,got me thinking....actually how big was the northern soul scene in the heyday ? was loads of people in yr street into it ? workmates etc etc ? was it really massive ? just wondering as i didnt get into the scene proper till about 81 so dont know how huge it was if it was huge ?
