This the hundred club in London.Iconic venue. Isn't it great to see people who love their music freaking out to fantastic northern soul music. And getting immersed in the whole thing. No apologies,no regrets and great dancing steps.
@@asensibleyoungman2978 that isn’t the Casino , 100 club in London is a good shout as previously stated . I lived in Stoke in those days ( looks like 80’s ) so did most of the nighters . I went the hundred club only a couple of times as it clashed with others on the scene most of the time .
These people are actors, they probably didn't even know the music before they played in the film but bet you a tenner they loved the music after being in the movie
I think it's fantastic these youngsters are keeping it going. I was 10yrs too young to appreciate the scene but I've always loved the music on account of my elder northern Soulie cousin who used to play us her records and show us the dances. Thus, I've always listened to the music and now my 18yr old daughter is obsessed with Northern Soul. I really do hope these young people can keep it going or it will just die away and be forgotten.
I love Northern soul never thought i would be so into it im 63 now and reliving my youth again i wish i had gone to an alnighter back in 1975 when i was 17 but im making up for it now i have been going to the Motown and Northern soul events since 2017 and have made alot of new friends though that went to my first aldayer in 2019 and absolutely loved it so glad i went to that and it was absolutely amazing fantastic the music is awesome
Brilliant - absolutely brilliant, it is a testimony to the scene as it then was and hopefully it will long endure. We need a younger generation to take over from us and love this music as we all did then and do now. Well done Ms Constantine. Thank you.
One hundred and twelve people gave this a "thumbs down" so I guess we can assume that 112 people don't appreciate Northern Soul! If you'd have been there soaking up the atmosphere you'd have voted differently!
I knew one day that it would come back. I danced and danced to Northern soul when I was young in the 70's. The male dancers were especially fantastic. I wasnt old enough to go to the Wigan Casino, but my neighbours did and told me how fantastic it was.
Sally there are over a 100 Northern Soul Clubs in the UK, from the 100club in london through the Keele allnighters, Blackburn town hall plus Scotland wales, & even in Northern Ireland, go on Facebook or any search engine & type in Northern soul, you will find loads of big & little clubs, hope that helps
Northern Soul and Ballet must be one of only few dance genres where the women express themselves individually and on level terms with the men, the young women here are fantastic.
This session was one of many Northern soul workshops for would be young actors dancers and extras in the film Northern soul the movie . They where schooled when to clap and show over egged heart felt passion throughout {as can clearly be seen.}. some of them went on to be in the movie and actually got into it NS in real life. good on them KTF
This is just BRILLIANT. It reminds me of when I was sixteen and first went to the Twisted Wheel. Or also the first time when Les Hare took me to a club in Manchester, and we walked in and were hit by the Brut aftershave, the Ben Sherman shirts, everybody clapping on the beat, and Frankie Valli's "You're Ready Now" booming out across a dacefloor of young hip sharp trendy mods. This captures it ALL.
This is awful. Every era has its own youth cult, ours was brilliant......but it's over, dont kill all those ace sounds by constantly playing them. That way they lose that memory link. And watching what look like a bunch of wannabe TV extras, doing what they thought people did,is just depressing. Try to remember folks how you felt the first time you heard, say, Joe Hicks.... So smashed you felt like you were hovering above the dance floor...all of a sudden that guitar lick....BOOM. you can't bring that back with an ersatz little vid. STOP IT>
It was what we felt at the time. a musical journey. A chance to dance our way out of our constriction ..ditto. Freedom in essence. expression. No prejudice . Everyone loved it and lived it. Personally I will never forget the feeling of a packed dance floor actually moving up and down to the rhythm of so many dancers.. To everyone I have ever danced along side ...God bless you all. GG
Love this I was there at the casino brings tears to my eyes looking at this such a good time,Black music from America that conquered the North of England and no where else😊
Went to the wheel in 69/70 and often went to top twenty in Oldham to continue the dance joy all-Dayer Sunday with tunes like Tams 'Hey girl don't bother me' and miracles 'whole lotta shakin' popular for me. In last 20 years grasshoppers in Preston has been the go-to place for us to recapture those heady days.
I like this song by Duke Browner lot, it does make me want to dance. I do clap on dance floor, sing to Duke Browner, spin around, kicks I love lot. I am a Mod since in 80s - 1994, I am still a Mod from Toronto Canada, I am one of original Mod. Northern Soul film I like lot. I have fun, I enjoy myself on dance floor. I can feel Northern Soul music all over my body.
I've just got my state pension , not been out for over 10 years due to dodgy health & have kept just gone back to my northern roots. Wow! It's like I've never been away there's still some of the faces from the 1970s crowd around, still dancing & still loving it. Truly awesome KTF X
It's sooo good to see the young one's ktf.. looking at them dancing you know they feel it.. just like us first timers who had it best first time around..63yrs old and don't listen to anything else.. looking at the clip reminds me sooo much of years gone by..We'll done to the young one's for carrying on..with the best music ever.. but there ain't no soul like the old sole.. We'll so the saying goes..My old sole stopped moving..but my head tells me different when I hear n.s.m..
Great music, great times, I used to dance to the music in the seventies and eighties, I’m now 68, and can still do back drops, I just can’t get back up now 🤣😂
Who would have thought a big screen film would have been made of our underground scene of yesteryear? A what a job they made of it - unbelievable. We were enjoying all this great music while Top of the Pops featured Slade, The Sweet Mud etc. clomping round in platform boots and glitter in their hair. The charts on their own were enough to drive any right-thinking person underground. I still play these records, I doubt anyone is playing Mud, Slade or Sweet!
That's what this music does to you even on the floor with hundreds of others around you your in your own space and world, I've never found any other music that can do that to such an extent
Northern Soul takes me to places other music can't. Brilliant that it is alive and kicking for all to enjoy and appreciate. It's not something to reminisce and feel nostalgic over when it's something magic to behold, now and forever.
Captures the feeling EXACTLY! Eyes closed, feeling the music and emotion. Spot on! Always preferred the vocal version - just made to sing-along to. And quite agree John - too many miserable old farts who think they own the copyright to what is or isn't allowable, acceptable or permissible at a Northern Soul event. Stuff OVO, I don't give two flying f**ks what label it's on, I just want to hear the tune in the groove - and clap where I bloody well want to! KTF
i remember dancing Northern soul in the early 80s and trying to buy 40 inch bottoms and brogues shoes for my local disco, the best infectious music ever, long live Northern soul ;-)
-I really wish this would pop up here in America again, & it was even invented here. Even though styles of music change we should've kept it going. If there's events already here somewhere then I don't know about them. So now, it takes European ears to dig the greatness of that music, that sound & what was happening big here back to 50+ years ago & bring some of it back again. You guys are smart over there. ,,,And I'm black.
There's several Northern Soul nights that go on throughout the US. I DJ one in Dallas, and we're about to celebrate our 15 year anniversary. Most major US cities have some sort of soul night like this. That being said, it's much bigger in Europe for sure.
It's a beautiful thing.... to look,listen or spectate. Having been part of the scene since the early 80's then losing my way in the rave scene only to come back to the best music scene and some of the nicest people on the planet in my opinion . Northern soul reaches the parts other music doesn't reach! They better slip some talc in my coffin when I go ! Haha
A documentary would be far better and accurate.I wasn't there.Born & raised in Germany until i moved to America in the mid 80's.I always loved Soul music and it seems the best & most enthusiastic fans could be found in England,not here in the U.S.,as so many thought. By 1974 that mind numbing Disco music began to take off.It is no coincidence that 2 British labels (Ace & BBR) re-issue the best & rare Soul music from that era. 70's Soul music you can dance to (such as the Phillysound) was certainly not part of that awful simplistic calculated Disco Trash. It's always a good time to bring back 60's & 70's Soul music,today even more so. Meanwhile i'm also enjoying my Candi Staton's compilation album ('69 to '73) "Evidence" which i just bought,made in the UK.
Well put John, I'd rather see the music & the dancing kept alive by these youngsters than let it die, I hope it's still going long after we've gone.( or long after tonight is all over!) sorry couldn't resist that, I did try!
these may have been in the film and probably thats what it was to them at the start but to see them dance and sing along i think they all came out of this with something more, passion and a love for the music, i first heard more than 35 yrs ago you can see it and hear it from them all and as they say the rest is history bless them all and K.T.F
Totally agree with John.....couldnt dance for shite in the early 70s nothings changed doesnt matter still go into another world when im on the floor to the likes of the Carstairs...Bobby Hutton etc !!!!
Over youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, I'll be crying over youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu .,..................................... Sweaty all nighters after a 15 hour scooter ride, to get there.
Superb. I went to my first all nighter in 1976 and was much younger than these, I have been going to events ever since. There have always been twats who think this is right and thats wrong. They were twats then and are still twats now. How on Earth can anyone criticise people having so much fun. And these are really having fun. And that can only be Good.
if you like this sound you will love this version THESE HEARTACHES-- DENA BARNES i first heard Dena at the Talk of yorkshire alldayer leeds rd Bradford in 1979 great record and this version aint bid ,,,Dont over egg it KFC.
I read somewhere that the whole concept of the Northern Soul movement was started at Manchester's Twist Wheel nightclub back in the 60's. One things for sure, Manchester certainly has had massive influence over Britain's music culture for years.
Unless you were born in 49? Which makes you 16 years older! The problem is the originals were aplenty back then and cost just pocket money - now many, many of those records are just not affordable to new-comers to the scene and they all need to start somewhere. My first purchases were boots, including Eddie Foster (which I still have), even tho it finally got a UK TMG release, which I also bought on release, but sold it years later, as the Eddie Foster "cover-up" holds more memories for me! KTF
Please re-read my comment which was not about the scene today; however many times a week or however many weeks a year you or anyone else goes to venues nowadays. This fantastic music scene was about rare and progressive soul music but has just become a mainly stale nostalgia scene with mostly the same records being played. This film, as with most others, just shows a caricature of the scene. Like I said I don't think it is really possible to do the scene (now or then) justice. Have fun!!!
You're right about "us" putting two claps in the tune but that doesn't matter to the young ones dancing here it's the fact that they're into the music exactly as we were that matters...as for the oldies scene not starting until 1975...how many Wheel records do you think got played at Wigan in the first year then ?
1974 memories yer, remember those pance with the high waistband baggy and my bowling shirt' forty yrs ago, summer of 42, good dance record eddie sos rip

I can't but I've had a double hip replacement! Superb music
63 isn't old unless you're on about keeping up with 90yr old grannies on their zimmer frames.
