Guest dave nowell Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 (edited) Hi folks Just to let you know my 1999 book Too Darn Soulful has been reprinted and is available again now It's been updated and repackaged as The Story of Northern Soul (Anova Books), and now boasts a new sleeve and fresh photos For those who missed it the first time around, it's a 330-page history of the NS scene in Britain from the 60s to the present day It now has recent pictures from Prestatyn, Bridlington etc, so many thanks to all who helped - particularly John Poole, Mark Fletcher, Rob Wigley and Casper There's also a great plug for current major soul event promoters and of course Soul Source! RRP is £9.99 and can be ordered from www.anovabooks.com link here (i hope) https://www.anovabook...tid=120&id=1890 Edited January 31, 2011 by dave nowell Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Bogue Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 First one was my favourite of the lot that came out around that time That's probably just about destroyed the sales of the revamp ....but you'll get one sale at least as I have pawed over mine that much that it is falling apart! Great book Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest dave nowell Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 thanks for your kind comments lads! this new version brings the story right up to date and to be honest when you think of all the changes since 1999 it is quite scary Ritz all-nighters - gone Tonys in Blackburn - gone Lowton - gone (but now being resurrected!) Cala Gran weekenders - gone Middleton - been and gone Winsford - gone No Searling on Smooth FM (shame!) etc etc the gap has been filled to some extent by the big weekenders, New Century, Lifeline, etc but that is a lot of change in 11 or 12 years Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Tezza Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Hi Dave, Got your first copy - excellent. A must read for all of us boys and girls. At Prestatyn March so hopefully can pick a copy up there. Cheers Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Britmusicsoulfan Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Just ordered the book and am looking forward to reading this at SoulTrip. I bet this would sell well at the record show at SoulTrip. Cheers! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Chris Waterman Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 I have just got a copy of PLAY.COM at a very good price of £7.90 with free delivery https://www.play.com/Search.html?searchtype=allproducts&searchsource=0&searchstring=The+Story+Of+Northern+Soul Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest dave nowell Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 (edited) I think casper has used liam on one of his flyers. I thought Casper took the photo? It was indeed used on one of Casper's flyers - which is where I spotted it (It was posted up on here. Int Soul Source great?) The pic was taken by a photog called Jethro Bradley-Firth It's a belter - think he was a student at the time? Pete will correct me if i'm wrong i'm sure! The other new colour pics were supplied by those nice people at Prestatyn and Bridlington There are also current flyers and mentions/links to New Century, Goldsoul, Soul Source etc Edited March 9, 2011 by dave nowell Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
