Every City has its style...its heartbeat ..... and its own identity

Tonight, we're heading a place where it all began Manchester and all the music formats from Vinyl to streaming

Welcome to another episode of The Northern Soul Club .

its Sunday night -the weekend might be winding down but in here ,the energy never fades ,tonight were back in the groove with a set that takes us from Detroit to Philly ....and unusually were starting with a instrumental.....

In the mid 70s Northern Soul was at a Crossroads, Manchesters Twisted Wheel and Stoke's The Golden Torch had closed ,a new divide was opening in the Northern Scene ..... Out of the tension a new chapter began ..............."The All -Dayer "

This was the birthplace of Northern soul -where rare grooves met raw energy and where the scene that changed British nightlife forever truly took off

I talk about the manchester scene ,and the technology as now you can take your soul anywhere you want ,anytime and it's a great way of discovering new artists

Spinning through time ,How music changed Format ,but never lost its Soul .

technology improves but we have come full circle back to vinyl .

Its all about passion -not charts ,not fame -just the rhythm, the sweat and the heartbeat of pure soul

The northern Soul Club isn't just a place its a feeling .

Tonight we've got a line up that honours the legends ,the rarities, and those records that made your heart skip a beat .From the classics that set the scene in the 60s and 70s ,to the hidden gems that only true collectors know ,this night is about celebration ,stories ,and soul

Each one of these tracks reminds us why this music still draws us back -records that were hidden away ,waiting for someone to give them a second life on a turntable

This is the Northern Soul Club......... where every record tells a story ,every beat has a memory ,and every heart still dances to the rhythm of soul.

Both clubs had their magic -One gritty ,One glamorous -but together they carved out the path of Northern Soul

So which was the greatest ?The answer lies not in the bricks and mortar but in the records that still make our hearts race.

Tonight we've danced through Detroit,Chicago ,Oakland ,Miami and beyond -from Gwen Owens to Freddie Scott and Barbara Pennington showing us that soul never dies .These are records you won't hear anywhere else ,tracks collectors have hunted for decades
