I was at Northern Soul Orchestrated on Tuesday in Manchester with mum and daughters, I had tears as I couldn't believe I was actually there watching these incredible performances ❤️❤️❤️

[@somewhereuk1957]

The younger generation just have not idea what the camaraderie and passion was like... and to a degree still is...

[@TooDarnSoulful]

Yes, I agree with you I will always be thankful that this music and scene touched my life. ❤

[@jbri1]

the younger generation? most of the older generation don't know anything about it

[@dianerogers8805]

@@jbri1 How old do you consider old not to know anything about Northern Soul.?

[@brendanwilkins]

I'm 32 so maybe not so young now but I do, I grew up with it my old man was from Bolton and regular at Wigan Casino and the Twisted Wheel in Manchester and went to the TW reunion every year, there's a lot of young people staying Northern Soul nights and clubs now to replicate it, it's something we all want and love it was a great movement and not something to be used just to divide people as well as everything else.

[@moogdome2562]

Absolutely brilliant. Wow II felt like I was there, what a night that must have been. He really did this classic song justice. Love it.
