Be good to hear. , My first all-nighter was at The Golden Disc in Keighley (aged 15 - my parents would have killed me if they'd known!) Also tried Blackpool Mecca, The Birdtrap, Lord Jim's, Plebs (Halifax) & String o' Beads (Bradford) but mostly it was The Wheel (Whitworth St) for me & then either The Blue Note or Top 20 on a Sunday morning - I was there pretty much every weekend without fail from 1966-1970. Fab times & I'd love to turn back the clock & do it all again! 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Ramsgate Ns Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 Wow, I’ve got so much to learn!!! My intro to NS reinvigorated my love of dance so I decided to open a venue in Ramsgate and go for it. The locals LOVE it! It’s surprising how many Northerners there are in the English Channel coastal towns. I’m keen to visit other venues as I’m able so will keep an eye on what’s coming up. My deepest thanks to all of you who have welcomed an Aussie into the fold. 2 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Stuart Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Hi everyone, just signed up to Soul Source. I've been using the events guide for several years now to find soul nights in the North West of England. I've had lots of fantastic nights out at great venues. Long may it continue. ATB - Stuart 3 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Popular Post Ribsy Posted April 3 Popular Post Share Posted April 3 Hi all I’m Ribsy from Wolverhampton. I’m 67 now so was into Northern Soul very soon after it exploded onto the scene. Sadly I was too young to attend the Catacombs before it was closed but all the sounds coming out of the club would syphon down to the many clubs i could get into inWolves. I’ve been an avid collector for all these years with a very large collection now. Loved the Impressions from the start then obviously Curtis Mayfield. Still get that tingly feeling when I hear something newly discovered or a track I’d almost forgotten. Can’t imagine life without Soul music in it . 4 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Devlam Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Hi all, My name is Mark, I got into Northern coming out of the mod revival thing back in the day in East London. I love all kinds of Music, at the moment educating myself about Jazz from the late 50s into the 60s and enjoying the current crop of new Jazz acts. Rare soul is my first love though and I’m just getting back into the collecting thing. Thanks all. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
