It can sound as "northerney" as you want and it can sound as "Northerney" as you want, that has nothing what so ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever to do with a sound being "Northern", it must be played on The Northern soul scene full stop!. There are scores of tunes played on the scene from the Crow to Purple haze to Busy Signal to the entertainer that do not sound soulful but have become part of this genre because they get play time at venues. Qualifying as northernsoul? You can fake a record; you can discover a record, but you can not get a record to be northern unless it is played at northern gigs.

Would this be like a "country n Western cross Over?" Oooohh Busy Signal...

What a bloody stooopid question? I mean realy please, we all know the so call "bubble" is born of born again soulies. It makes me blood boil it does!! Blahh de blahh de blahh for years after the Casino there where the lean years, that was when the norvun bleedin soil bubble burst. What we have now is a sea of sweating and balding middle aged men and women all enjoying their mid rift crisis. Just because Trev n Sharon don't want to sling sulph down their Swedes and go to the nighters don't mean the gig is over!! The dreaded soul nights once despised by the real nighter goer are now top bollox nights with up for it DJ's and a more realistic crowd. Yes there are CD's spun and ze Snake fans but there are some mega nights out there now. So if you truly honestly and cross yer heart n hope to die actually believe the bubble has burst then you aint getting out much full fookin stop! And who the freaking Nora am I to say? Well I am ImberBoy! And I am here to save this forum from getting up its self. O and I am a northernsoul record collector and I only need three more records and I will have five of them! Long live steak n liver pies. Long live The Imber Village Soul Club!
