I don,t know about Northern, but she goes to quite a few Modern dos, weekenders etc.

She also went to the Tuscanny weekender last year. Thinking about it she could be into Northern as well, she was at the Tower weekender a year or two ago.

Yes she did a cover of Barbara Acklin's     Am I the same girl. Regards Fred.

Re Steve Davis.

He was recently on the Saturday morning Danny Baker show on Radio 2 and said he had once sold one of his "soul records" that the buyer later sold on again for a lot of money, I was shouting at the radio for Baker to ask him which one but he didn't.:(

I read somewhere that she went to Cleethorpes?

Charlene Spiteri's all-time favourite record is love starved heart.

Liz from Corrie went to Wigan and (according to Kev R) was the driver behind the whole Northern story line in Corrie.

Steve Davis bankrolled Voices From The Shadows for a few years and went to the Canal Tavern not infrequently I believe, Jimmy White also collects soul.

This is a bit of a pointless thread - there are DOZENS of celebs into soul/northern - so what????... However Anna Ford was NOT one of them - she only went to Wigan to do a news report.

I think there is a point to it. We seem to think that NS must be great because it's validated by these celebs, but most of them are a$$holes and it actually has the reverse affect.

Last time I DJd I played Darling you're Wonderful and somebody asked me if I had Love Starved Heart and I confirmed it's on the same album. When s/he asked me why I didn't play IT I said because the record I was playing is better and s/he looked astonished. Why on earth would we think a DJ searching for NS appropriate records would have the last word on what is a great record by one of the greatest artists of all time, who should be ranked where Mozart and Beethoven are now. I wouldn't put Love Starved Heart in my top 50 Marvin Gaye. Have we still not learnt the lesson of Major Lance and JJ Barnes which we then carried through to the Modern Scene with Leroy Hutson and lots of people (Wilie Hutch, Leon Ware, JR Bailey, Lou Courtney, Bobby Wilson), with Anthony White and Randy Brown standing in for Teddy and even an Al Green impersonator.

See there is a point to these threads; they lead to far more interesting discussions. 

I presume the Canal Tavern was Thorne! Steve Davis also went to Fleetwood but I don't recall if he was still around for Morecambe and Southport though I suspect he was at the latter for Garland Green. His preference in prog is also for the very obscure and he's famed as a devotee of French band Magma, who sang in a made up language.

Bought a record off Discogs a couple of months ago. When it arrived I convinced myself it was 'wrong' based on the label copy being slightly different to others posted on line and the fact that the condition was stone mint. So I fired off a somewhat ill-considered late night email to the seller questioning it.  First thing next morning I received a reply offering me a no quibble refund but unlikely to be a boot as came from a US warehouse buyout by the seller 30 years ago. Signed Steve Davis.

I've only just stopped cringing about that! Sorry Steve if you're reading!

In the 80s I used to call at a soul/jazz funk record shop in Essex once a month for work reasons.  I got friendly with the owner and one day he showed me his locked room at the back of the shop where he kept the rare stuff he only sold to valued customers.  He told me that one of his regulars who he allowed to see the rare stuff was Steve Davis who was a serious buyer back then.  He also told me that he had been invited to visit his amazing house and what a lovely genuine down to earth bloke he was despite his fame and fortune....and also very knowledgable about vintage soul.

I remember Steve Hobbs used to have a Sunday evening show on Jazz FM around when it started in 1990 and Steve Davis covered for him at least once.

In the early 90’s, Tim Brown,Steve Davis,and I think,Roger Banks?appeared on a “record collectors soul special”,with Andy Kershaw on Radio 2.....

I recall he once bought some records from Mike Charlton and Mike told him it was the amount of a maximum break. I found him friendly and interesting and a thoroughly decent chap.

Having said that, in an issue of prog mag he referred to the silly rare soul scene, which I'm allowed to say, but he isn't, like Phil Collins reckons he's allowed to slag off prog rock but if other people do he'll defend it to the hilt.

I might have posted this before, Tracey Emin was at one of the Rocket allnighters.  She obviously wasn't there for the music though, she was off her nut.

This sounds like an urban myth and even if true, not evidence that he was into NS. Just a sicko who hung around anywhere he thought he might find vulnerable women.

I very much doubt it. Can anyone in the Leeds area verify this? Sutcliffe was a psycho who cruised around red light districts in Manchester, Sheffield, Leeds etc. The very notion that he attended a soul event makes me nauseous...

I'm very surprise that this statement has been met with such disbelieve, Peter Sutcliffe was to all to all intents and purposes (apart from him being a serial killer) was a very normal person who did a very average job and lived a very normal life, so why shouldn't he have enjoyed or at least attend Northern Soul events? do you need to be compos mentis to enjoy Soul Music I think not!

But I can accredit this statement further from genuine first hand encounters with Peter Sutcliffe via one of my very good friends who is now a very respected senior psychiatric nurse who stared her nursing career at Broadmoor Hospital in the 1980's Sutcliffe was one of her patients and spoke to her on a few occasions about Northern Soul music and her husband who was his nurse.

Yep a very “normal” person. Why shouldn’t he be able to have enjoyed attending soul do’s - I mean ffs, did he have a copy of Frank Wilson? I’m out of here in disgust. Some people have weird fcuking minds.

No, Steve Davis doesn't listen to Soul anymore and calls the scene silly, which I don't think his late arrival and short stint entitles him to. I know he does a radio show somewhere, playing prog and alt rock.  

I could understand somebody leaving a scene or not wanting to be involved but to srop liatening to a type of music because you dont like a scene seems strange.

 

i may be off the mark but i thought his preference was for deep soul which doesnt really have a scene as such.

A quick search yielded these on Steve Davis, aka DJ Thundermuscle:

https://www.musicradar.com/news/guitars/steve-davis-the-10-records-that-changed-my-life-640154

Only one soul record in his lifetime top 10 - Oscar Perry (plus some nice words for Robbie Vincent)

https://www.theguardian.com/music/2016/mar/10/steve-davis-snooker-champion-radio-show-dj-interview

A more recent interview in which the soul content is tiny and very past tense

https://www.internationaldjmag.com/six-by-six-steve-davis.html

and something even more recent - "Anyway, I've had my fill of soul music. I love it but I don't want to hear it every day. The music I've rediscovered now is a lot more mentally stimulating."

With regard to the theme of this thread, the fact that the odd 'celeb' was spotted at a club doesn't seem to mean much to me. A night out with a few friends who might like soul? They've got to socialise somewhere right?

I'd be more interested in a guest on Desert Island discs , picking some Darrell Banks, Walter Jackson, Chuck Jackson etc..or even some Motown not featured on a chartbusters collection. Don't listen to every show but can't recall anything like this.

Simarlily, articles in magazines e.g. Radio Times, asking for the personal taste in music....never see any NS/60s soul mentioned.

Even in the 70s glory years....how many footballers when doing a piece suggested Major Lance, Jackie Lee etc. Always Rod Stewart or Elton John.

 

Top marks to Roy Hodgson picking Otis and Solomon Burke.

I was wasting time on google last night and one search took me to a film featuring bruce willis from 2012 that featured a brilliant deep soul track "pwwerful love" by chuck and mac.

 

for a bruce willis big film to feature such an obscure classic is quite impressive.  No link to any particular individual but just an example of when a true underground classic breaks into mainstream media.

No, his preference was for the obscure end of Modern Soul and he was very much in thrall to Dearlove. Couple of blinders in that list but mostly just obscurity. 

Bloody good show IMO. You see. To have an issue with Steve Davis and nothng with persuade you otherwise.

Dave godin the guy that coined the phrase northern soul , released a serious of compilation albums called deep soul treasures , has the so called scene ever been prevalent to the majority of soul music lovers? Methinks not . 🎶

A certain Radio 6 stalwart boasts that he was into NS between prog rock and punk rock. He was DJing at a ns bash and got mixed up trying to play the Night and ended up playing Grease because he thought they'd know it. When he was roundly criticised he said he doesn't like the politics in NS. But should he be playing the Night?

I remember this, seemed to be a major bandwagon thing going on at that time, laughed my ass off

what annoyed me though was playing from CD's, do NS DJ's do that nowadays?

Oh yes we all widely accept the playing of recordings on any format, CD's included. Although playing of illegal repressing is especially incourraged.

I presume that was aimed at me. I don't have an issue with him and liked him, as I stated earlier. He wasn't into the soul scene long enough to call it silly and, he's the same with progrock, he's drawn to the obscure and wouldn't know what to do with a Marvin Gaye album, a Curtis Mayfield album, a Yes album or a Genesis album. It's a position he adopts, though he probably doesn't realise it.  

Had he played Ridin High, or the Lamont Dozier version, or better records by Tyrone or Latimore, I may have been more impressed. He was too old when he got into Soul to really grasp its depth, hence his reason for going back to prog outlined above. All credit to him and better late than never, but his money alone wasn't enough to make him a major player.

When he stayed in the hotel I was working in I tried to make contact with him because I would love to make a music programme with him and he may just have the clout to do it. He was into prog til it dipped when he made a slight switch to jazz-rock, which was a short stop to jazz-funk, which led to Robbie Vincent and he headed straight over to the obscure end which Vincent never went near so he headed to Hull? and Rod Dearlove.

I was into prog and Jazz-rock but, like many others, switched to Soul in 74, returning to prog a little in the early eighties, having picked up Jazz Funk, Real Jazz, Reggae, Deep Soul and Blues along the way. I've studied culture to degree level to try to explain it all after helping run the Berwick, Fleetwood, Morecambe and early Southport Soul Rooms and have since taken on classical music, world music, hip-hop, folk, country and western and anything else that takes my fancy so I think we'd make a good team.

I don't have a TV but can't help but wonder what the NS storyline in Corrie was, after all's said and done Ena Sharples and Minnie Caldwell were part of my growing up, a work 'still in progress'.

All the Web gives me is an episode from '07 where a bloke called Vernon sells his records to fund a trip to somewhere.

So just a passing interest, the usual any good, any tunes played etc.

I've done my musical travels a bit and started with disco/funk, moving through Beatles and UK 60s blues scene to prog rock to jazz rock until the circle closed when I rediscovered JF and then soul in all its wonderful forms. Robbie V *did* dabble in "obscure" with his little label collection feature on his Sound of Sunday Night show on Radio 1, and Davis is clear about that being an influence on him.

I think you're right about his position, whether he understands it or not. To me that feels more like a teenage thing to focus on rarity over quality, but then again for those of us still hungry for new sounds (of any era) then it's not such a leap from being excited to find something brand new (at least to me) and then being even more excited because either no one else has discovered it or no one else has it. But here I part company with the coveruppers and elitists who want to keep it closed. It's so much more satisfying to be able to share the knowledge instead of bottling it up.

While we're on the subject of prog rock, Yes drummer Alan White made a solo LP in 1975 "Ramshackled", on which is found this unlikely tune:

I believe the vocalist is Alan Marshall, who later did some recordings with UK group Gonzalez on Capitol, and before that was a member of mod group The Loose Ends during the 60s.

Sometimes people make statements which they consider ironic and assume everyone else will to, so apologies if I get this wrong.

Were it not for pressings, NS would never have got passed the North West and bits of the Midlands, and never have got passed 1973. On a personal note, I'd have had one of the small singles boxes half empty without pressings, British reissues and the first half dozen compilation albums.

Many of the artists who come over nowadays would never have been able to do so without pressings.

And the best chance any of these people have ever or will ever have of actually making any money is CDs.

 

Alan White's from Ferryhill ( home town of Tim Carr, Yvonne Middleton-Smith and Tracy Smith) and his family always turn up when Yes play Newcastle City Hall, though they're playing the Sage in a couple of weeks so we'll see if they make it there.
