Guest Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Wow! what a wonderful trip down memory!! Tell me about it...quite a few Soul-Sourcers are there...should they care to reveal themselves Thankfully I wasn't there that night having already left Gloucester by '87, but so good to see some of the old regular faces...thanks for the upload and looking forward to part II already.

mark and donna Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 (edited) That's a brilliant bit of footage. I love seeing these uploads (Tony's empress ballroom,odd fellows etc).and I am sure I have met the chap being interviewed at about 14min 40sec a few times and he still had the moves. What does surprise me is back then it was still the same argument oldies,nostalgia etc vs newies (as they call them) and that was back in 1987!.

Jerry Hipkiss Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Gloucester - a city with a fine history of northern soul. Gloucestershire - a county with a fine history of Northern Soul - and it continues!What's frightening is that it's almost twenty seven years since that was filmed...don't think I DJ'd at that one, although I did quite a few there, probably off doing a nightclub gig! Dennis Lee, Wilxy with big hair, Sue Reddy, Julie, Rich Gough, even Steve Smith, loads more faces, and what's positive is that a lot of 'em will be at either Soulfusion this Saturday or Gloucester Wotton Hall niter next month! 3 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Leon Thomas on Flying Dutchman Then one around 19:11 is Pharrell, Ivan Dewsbury's favourite 'soul' record of all time ))))) Edited January 15, 2014 by Sutty Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Newer Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Am blocked too There's a Firefox add-on called "Proxytube" to watch blocked YT videos. Will give it a try tonight. Yes, Benji, found it on You Tube last night Unfortunately 1987 was prime changing nappies, working 7 days a week to support family, not going to Northern nights so I missed this and most local nights at that time as I had to be picky about where I went. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest in town Mikey Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Watched these last night. I see it is billed as the 2nd anniversary. There were of course regular nights there long before 1985. Upstairs more often than not. My memory is never great but who used to run the nights in the video? I remember Julie on the door, but for the life of me cant remember who ran these nights. Can someone help? I'd be interested to know if the success was largely due to persuading the landlord to let the nights move to the bigger downstairs area. I actually kinda liked the upstairs room, but downstairs seemed to attract a lot more people through the door. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Jerry Hipkiss Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Dennis Lee and Julie ran this one I think, but as you say there had been nights there off and on for years before that Mikey. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Ezzie Brown Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 very interesting.. ...got a few friends on the footage but for me its an insight into the local soul scene in gloucester that i completly missed out on for 25 years.. not really sure why know as i always loved the music while never going anywhere......the bristol had some big soul acts on in the 60s and i went to a few soul nights there in the early 70s. ez Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Mark Oliver Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 (edited) Yes it was a great night, have a copy of this video that we watched just before Xmas. I seemed to spend the whole night with a walk on part as seemed to spend more time walking past in the background then on the dance floor. Great to see so many of the local characters, alongside those from afar. Have attached a copy of some of the original flyers.
