The blurb: Soul music remains the biggest 'underground' music scene in the world with each weekend, pre-Covid19, seeing countless soul nights and weekenders fill the diaries. Records, on often obscure labels, change hands regularly for four figure sums. But for many to learn about those 'four-figure' tracks and those who recorded them, they have had to rely on countless diehards on the scene. Those who seek out details of an artist's career and compile discographies of the labels on which they recorded and then take the time to put it all into print in the form of a fanzine, or if finances allow, a fully-fledged magazine. Some of those publications failed to last beyond one issue, others longer. There have been books about the artists, the record labels and the venues. Now 'Soul In Print' fills a gap, covering the fanzines and magazines which did so much to keep the scene alive and maintain the interest which continues today (large format colour and B&W illustrated, 186 pages).
