When I started my Northern Soul journey Mick, I knew in my hearts of hearts that some of the stuff being played had nothing to do with soul. But; I was told that they were very big records and that I knew nowt. I had discovered the sweet soul sound of Philly on my own, things like the Stylistics. So, then to be confronted by such monstrosities as Tim Tam, James Coit, and many others, etc, I was a little disenchanted. But I persevered, and I'm still here. My teething time was around 1975. I hope I've explained myself well enough for people to understand.
