5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent both the idea & tracks - so glad there are 3 more, 7 Sep 2007
By Ms. E. J. Baker "Elle" (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
What an excellent idea to create a northern soul "mecca" around the clubs which gave it birth!. All of these hallowed names now so familiar to those who loved the music and the scene and which are in no small way totally responsible for its success both then and again now.

Born in 1963 I was not considered old enough to go to the all dayers and all nighters of that time. Therefore back then I loved the music but only heard a tiny portion of it and never had the honour of entering the sacred halls themselves; Blackpool Mecca, The Torch, The Twisted Wheel and Wigan Casino. Thanks to Richard Sterling however I have enjoyed the revival and added extensively to my northern soul knowledge and collection. Now with these 4 CD's, this being the first, a further whole cornocopia of GREAT music history is opened up to everyone together with a very concise written history including photographs of old ticket stubs, the DJ's of the day and even the club goers!. The written background of the clubs and the time are clearly well researched and fascinating and most importantly the track inclusion is first rate with a varied mix of hot tracks of the day floor fillers. None of these tracks themselves are fillers however with 25 tracks of class and melody and not one dross track in sight!.

Inexpensive and well worth the investment, this collection will fill a big gap in the history of what it was all about and who were the names of the day for those who were too young to be a part of it then and those who are new to it but still love it now. As an introduction to anyone who really knows nothing but would like to, this set of 4 (will there be any more?) is no better place to start.

5.0 out of 5 stars A real feel good 'get you up dancing' album, 31 Mar 2009
Having been collecting Northern soul albums for some years now, I am constantly amazed at the sheer number of tracks out there. Here is yet another album full of fantastic dancing tunes, none of which appear on any of my other albums. Superb quality throughout, well worth the ridiculously low asking price. Look out for the other three in the series, basrd around other famous venues.

4.0 out of 5 stars solid soul, 9 April 2009
By reesy the ear. (rugby england) - See all my reviews
if you're a "northern soul" fan you probably have quite a few of the tracks that feature on the series of cds that comprise the "northern soul story"... this is the first in the series and contains a good mix to satisfy all the more diverse tastes of the long term fans and those coming fresh to "northern soul" wanting to get their first experience of why the phenomenon went down so well in the clubs...indeed some tracks featured were actually more mainstream minor chart successes...not every track excites my more deeply rooted soul taste buds, but the mix is more than sufficient to warrant the purchase of this well priced cd.
