    I’m too young to have been into northern soul but love this.

    there was a book called last night a dj saved my life which details the northern soul stuff. Very interesting read. It discusses all the different DJ led movements in dance music.

    Tamla Motown.
    Mainstream manufactured but still good and hidden gems.

    I was in my fifties when I first heard this on 100 Northen Soul hits. I was hooked and though I am in my seventies now, NS and motown is just about the only music I listen to. It kept me going when I was stacking shelves on night shift. Love Junior Walker by the way. Saw him live at the Twisted Wheel club. Manchester

    Before my time too mate but there is something about the music gets you hooked and draws you in.
    I grew up in the Mod revival era and the northern soul scene was just dying, ie Wigan casino, twisted wheel, golden torch etc.
    But was part of the Mod and scooter culture.
    All a pre to all night raves.

    It's still very popular amongst old farts and young uns.

    Bit of blues soul.
    Etta James.
    Voice like a Cadbury flake wrapped in silk with strawberry lime.
