This was fantastic when first broadcast for those who love this music, fabulous singers

Just switched over. saw it before but Sunday Night is Music Night - as is Friday and Saturday :)

It’s brilliant.

New to Northern Soul but really like it. Would have liked to be there.

Wehave a venue near us that has Northern Soul nights. I’ll be on the sides admiring the dancing and outfits.

Great, thanks @TheApollasMrCreatorNSOL will listen to all those tomorrow.

Loving this track ‘I’m just a drifter’.

It's by Ray Pollard.
Hope you enjoy some on that list.
I'm a wee bit biased I've been into Northern soul for 44yrs.

Some of these songs are so sad 🥺

Get yourself this album, I used to play most of them in 1974.

Just seen this, it was wonderful when I saw it last year. You can find it on you tube, or be enjoyed anytime!

Oh yes, I loved it last year too

Darrell Smith (sang The Difter, Ghost in my House on the proms) is touring with a band at the moment , sadly nowhere near me.

I know someone who sings with his band. Had lunch with her last Sunday - she's a beautiful singer.

I have happy memories of watching this with my mum, who died a couple of years ago. We both loved it.
