Rob Wigley replied to Mike's topic in Northern Soul Days
Remember reading this at the time as a 16 year old Div ! Great to read again, though its amazing in some respects how politically incorrect it appears nowadays ! (Fat Northerner and Blacks), catches the essence of the time and some things that only an outsider would notice about the way we behaved (and still do) Love it Rob -
Hi Steve found this now and I'll get on it. Are you including the Legends of Motown weekenders too ? I can fill in up to when I got sacked ! lol Rob

The stuff of dreams ! Maybe one or two library's left in old colonial outposts in distant places on the Planet !
