CULCHETH RETURNS CASINO 50th Anniversary Special
Fantastic night, and so refreshing to hear some 'Proper' Wigan stompers instead of the usual tired old tunes that are trotted out every time Station Rd is mentioned. Congrats to all involved and any chance this could be repeated so we can hear more of these forgotten Wigan tracks? ....

Bury Town Hall Virtual Allnighter Saturday Night 21 March 2020
Always in Her Bad books Ste. We're Ok, but that could well change given we're now stuck at home together for the next few months so we are currently spending our time hiding anything blunt or Sharp from each other.

News: Record Mirror Northern Soul Chart 1975 - Wigan Casino Top 20
Ok Folks, it's time for the Soulsource Monthly 'Wigan Went Shite in.... (insert year of Choice) thread. As usual special brownie points given to all posters who can list as many 'White pop crap' tunes that Russ & co played after it "Went Crap" and real kudos can be gained amongst your fellow Soulsourcers by telling anyone ( who'll listen) that every other Venue before The Casino only ever played Quality Black Rare Soul music and it was in fact Wigan that was responsible for the death of Northern Soul as well as the rise of National Socialism in Nazi Germany in the 1930's, The Bubonic plague, The poll Tax and the End of Free School Milk (Thatcher the milk snatcher was known to be on Russ's pay roll). Wigan went crap for me in 81 went it was replaced by a Pile of Bricks and a Piano, not to mention having a funny smell of Smoke.

Frank Wilson Test Press Stays in Detroit - Jack White & Record Store Day News
Likewise, but for many it's more what the track represents rather than the record itself, which is hardly FW's fault. I'd think Ruby Andrews is now comfortably ahead and is easily the most overplayed track in the scene's history. There must be as yet undiscovered tribes in the Amazon rain Forrest who could recite the lyrics to 'Just Lovin' You'.

News: Northern Soul and Age in 2017 - Carry On Regardless?
I often wonder what the 17 Year old me would make of todays scene, ie if on my first visit to Station Rd in 1977 I'd have walked through the main doors to be greeted by a dancefloor full of people who were the same age as my Grandparents...... Have to be honest and say I doubt I'd have made the trip the following week.
