  • Did Wigan Have a Northern Soul?
    Did Wigan have a Northern Soul? Introduction The town of Wigan in Lancashire, England, will forever be associated with the Northern Soul scene because of the existence of the Casino Club, which operated in the town between 1973 and 1981. By contrast, Liverpool just 22 miles west, with the ‘the most intensely aware soul music Black Community in the country’, (Cohen, 2007, p.31 quoting from Melody Maker, 24 July 1976) remained immune to the attractions of Northern Soul and its associated scene, music, subculture and mythology. Similarly, the city of Manchester has been more broadly associated with punk and post-punk. Wigan was and remains indelibly connected to the Northern Soul scene with the Casino representing a symbolic location for reading the geographical, class and occupational basis of the scene’s practitioners. The club is etched into the history, iconography, and mythology of Northern Soul appearing in the academic and more general literature, television documentaries, memoirs, autobiographies and feature films. This chapter seeks to explore the relationship between history, place, class, industrialisation, mythology and nostalgia in terms of Wigan, the Casino Club and the Northern Soul scene. It asks the question: did Wigan have a northern soul? This is explored through the industrial and working-class history of the town and the place of soul music in its post-war popular culture. More broadly, it complements the historical literature on regional identity identifying how Northern Soul both complemented and challenged orthodox readings of Wigan as a town built on coal and cotton that by the 1970s was entering a process of deindustrialisation.

  • Record Dreams Catalog
    RECORD DREAMS 50 Hallucinations and Visions of Rare and Strange Vinyl Vinyl, to: vb. A neologism that describes the process of immersing yourself in an antique playback format, often to the point of obsession - i.e. I’m going to vinyl at Utrecht, I may be gone a long time. Or: I vinyled so hard that my bank balance has gone up the wazoo. The end result of vinyling is a record collection, which is defned as a bad idea (hoarding, duplicating, upgrading) often turned into a good idea (a saleable archive). If you’re reading this, you’ve gone down the rabbit hole like the rest of us. What is record collecting? Is it a doomed yet psychologically powerful wish to recapture that frst thrill of adolescent recognition or is it a quite understandable impulse to preserve and enjoy totemic artefacts from the frst - perhaps the only - great age of a truly mass art form, a mass youth culture? Fingering a particularly juicy 45 by the Stooges, Sweet or Sylvester, you could be forgiven for answering: fuck it, let’s boogie! But, you know, you’re here and so are we so, to quote Double Dee and Steinski, what does it all mean? Are you looking for - to take a few possibles - Kate Bush picture discs, early 80s Japanese synth on the Vanity label, European Led Zeppelin 45’s (because of course they did not deign to release singles in the UK), or vastly overpriced and not so good druggy LPs from the psychedelic fatso’s stall (Rainbow Ffolly, we salute you)? Or are you just drifting, browsing, going where the mood and the vinyl takes you? That’s where Utrecht scores.

  • Timepieces Four Seasons Stories from the Past
    Timepieces Four Seasons Stories from the past ‘The Four Seasons & Motown - A One Way Street or Not? – By Kingsley Abbott and Ken Charmer & “Received wisdom has always had it that, with the growth and huge chart success of Motown records from 1963/4 onwards, The Four Seasons skillfully developed their sound around 1965 onwards to include a Motown-ish edge. There was no blatant copying or re-working of riffs like the guitar line from ‘My Girl’ or the bass line from ‘I Can't Help Myself’ that virtually every soul label indulged in, in bucket-loads. But instead there was a recognisable move towards utilisation of more danceable feels for the backing tracks. ‘Let's Hang On’, ‘Opus 17’ et al showed that Bob’s Crewe and Gaudio were well aware of the elements that made Motown sell so well, and this clever aiming towards such radio-friendly tracks proved a boon for us all and helped to sub- tly lift the group to a new level following the Vee Jay years and the early Philips period. It was a most effective gear change. Was the Motown to Seasons route a one way street? Motown had been formed and developed by Berry Gordy, who from the earliest days was a songwriter who had an intrinsic appreciation of the elements that built a hit song, and there is little doubt that he would have imbued other writers and producers around him with a similar outlook. If you listen to the first of the excellent ‘Complete Singles’ CD sets, you can easily pick up on many examples of Motown trying a wide variety of different hit styles.

  • And Teresa Swanborough (TS) Interviewed by Kate Hall (KH) and Nick Wood (NW) Date
    Northern Soul Scene Project Colin Swanborough (CS) and Teresa Swanborough (TS) interviewed by Kate Hall (KH) and Nick Wood (NW) Date: CS: A genre of music that more than any other promotes two things. It promotes the need to dance and it promotes the … the need to be part of a group. Now, the reason I say that is, if you don't mind, I'll go to you, because I did, I've got a problem. If you go to a northern soul, you will not ever be anything else except another member of the same family. So you could go over there and you would just enter into this relationship with people you’ve never spoken to before. If I go to, God forbid, [ ] everybody is just an individual, the same. So once you get this northern soul bug if you like, it's something that just never, ever goes. KH: Like being Catholic. CS: Yeah, but with a deeper faith. So I first got involved in northern soul most probably about ‘69 so I was about 11 and there was a place in Stanground called the Stanground Soul Hole and it was an underground cellar inside of Stanground [ ]. KH: Okay. CS: And the big children used to go down there, you could hear the music from outside and of course in I went and never came back since really. And the soul movement has sort of contained the most of the same people ever since, you do get newcomers, youngsters coming nowadays, but they tend to be the children of the mothers and fathers.

  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.

  • Great Albums
    Last Update: 14/4/13 – Changes & additions since the December 2010 version highlighted thusly 1936 Robert Johnson The Complete Recordings 1937 By universal acknowledgment, the greatest of the Old Masters of acoustic blues. It’s said that Eric Clapton wouldn’t even talk to you in the 1960s if you were not au fait with Robert Johnson. This is one of the exceptions in which I’ve allowed a “best of” compilation. I just had to in this case. There weren’t any albums in the 30s. 1959 Miles Davis Kind Of Blue He could play the trumpet a bit. This is arguably the best known full-on jazz album of all time. It had just enjoyed its 40 th anniversary on first compilation of this list. I’m not qualified to write about Miles Davis, but this I know. Despite his tetchy character, especially in defence of blacks against the white establishment (understandably), he did not come from a typical poor black background. His family were quite affluent and middle class, in as far as it was possible for blacks to be middle class in the US at that time. 1964 John Coltrane A Love Supreme He could play the sax a bit. The album was the result of Coltrane’s sudden religious awakening in 1957. Brilliant – apart from the embarrassing vocals. You're getting jazz and old-time blues up to '64 because The Great Musical Reinvention had not yet happened - but it was just around the corner... 1965 Jackson C Frank Jackson C Frank Aficionados know that this is the best folk album of all time.
