The Northern Soul prom was at last broadcast on TV on Sat evening
I believe it is available on I Player. Not seen it yet but have been told it is well worth watching😃

I was desperately disappointed with it.
Thought all the energy and soul from the originals had been sucked out of the songs, evident by the muted reaction from the audience.
Absolutely nothing wrong with the musicians or vocalists per se but the production (for me and I know a lot of my friends) was just way over polished, leaving the actual tunes pretty sterile.

Mum loved it, was fantastic to see her face light up.
Didn't know shit about northern soul apart from seeing "keep the faith" stickers inside the odd bog cubicle. Sounds like it made fantastic memories

Sounds like it made fantastic memories Was big in the Potteries back in the day. We were dubbed 'Soul on Trent', and the Kings Hall and Golden Torch lead the way.

Not a massive northern soul fan, but really enjoyed that.
