Northern Soul - The Film - Latest news - June 2012
Seems just a bit more "Northern Soul" film news has been pushed out in the mainstream via a MEN article entitled Keeping The Faith... Clip below, can read the full article via the link below the below.... Steve Coogan plays a teacher, it's a small part but I'm really pleased he agreed to do it and Ricky Tomlinson plays the granddad Elaine says it was a 'no brainer' to shoot here in the north west, but she's keen to point out that the town in the film is fictitious. "I know the main towns on the Northern Soul scene were Wigan, Stoke and Manchester," she says, "but I didn't want to pinpoint a certain place, so I've taken relevant bits and put them all together. "But I knew it had to be filmed here, it's my old stomping ground - where I first fell in love with Northern Soul - it's synonymous with the scene." Elaine has also enlisted the expertise of legendary Northern Soul DJ, Richard Searling to act as a music consultant and she reveals the film company is in early discussions about releasing a soundtrack to the film, which is planned for release around next spring. "That's the time scale we're working toward," she says. "We envisage shooting will be pretty much completed by the end of the summer and so spring 2013 is our projected release date."

Guilty Pleasures
two from me tymes - someway somehow doesn't get mentioned much nowadays but had some time in the sun.. was it 78 ? guilty pleasure at the time as could remember when first released 75 - top 50? there was a fair few of these mid 70s easy to get 45s revitalised round 78 a la gameplayers etc another guilty pleasure (aint heard since back then) was a tailor made one the (unreleased) instrumental version of "one fine morning" - memory says as the james bond feel was more obvious it sounded a lot better than it should of course kept such views to meself at the time

Baileys Nightclub In Hull In 1971
below was posted via contact us and have posted just in case anyone can help Hello I wonder if you could help me please? I noticed a question posted on your forum in 2009 with regards to Baileys Nightclub in Hull in 1971 and wondered if you could point me in the right direction with obtaining some information. I have a friend who is a singer/guitarist. In 1971 he was asked to play in a group which was being organised to tour around the Baileys nightclubs. In this group was my friend Lawrence 'Ted' Heath - bass guitarist, the late Dave Rowberry - drums (ex Animals) Stuart - guitarist (now playing with Cockney Rebel) Tim also on guitar who is a folk singer now. This group was fronted by Adam Faith. On the bill with them was Mike Yarwood and Dana. The only other things of that night that Lawrence can remember is that a young man on his stag night fell over the balcony and unfortunately died. I have managed to find out that there was an article written in 1971 about this club/night in the Hull Times, because the club had recently opened again, but I am unable to find out anything about this newspaper. I wondered if you would know where I could obtain a copy of this article or even any information regarding this. Lawrence is still in contact with Stuart and Tim and only recently read about the death of Dave Rowberry. As most people they are reminiscing about their youth. Thank you for your time Chris

suggest you go and wise up on the legal side as i dont take these sort of half baked legal threats lightly if you got a problem with ANY post you need to inform the site we do not in a postion to make calls on what is true or not true go and read the terms of use it is up to you to inform us if you find any comment or post out of order and as always we then look at it then and if going to continuing making these half baked schoolboy legal threats then as said I seriously suggest that you do start looking up the legal side of defamation etc as it does work both ways- Soul Source Record Club Record Of The Day 2012 (Summer)

just a recap idea is to try and reduce the number of vids on each page there's 50 posts a page, so if carry on with the posting text after the vid it means only be 25 vids per page which should help avoid the loading probs some have been having mike- News: Lou Pride Has Gone
post deleted as said will- Lou Pride Has Gone
post deleted as said will- Brief Feedback From Bank Holiday Events
