The Thrase was actually coined by a DJ and writer for Blues and Soul magazine called Dave Go in order. He referred to "The soul of the North" after clubs like The Wigan Casino, The Twisted Wheel etc started doing their all-nighters. The soul of the north got shortened to "Northern Soul", and that thrase stuck. That never went unnoticed by the artists who made that music, who got more appreciation here in the UK than they ever got in the States. It is still a miracle how they managed it, baring in mind the US radio stations at the time wouldn't play " Black" music, and the BBC thought we should all be dancing to the Osmond's. (Sorry Donny, I know you are a big soul fan yourself, but your music just doesn't do it for me!) A big THANK YOU to Messrs Godin, Levine, Roberts, Searling and others for making our lives bearable!

[@gaary1969]

David Gordin coined the phrase Northern Soul. When he noticed northern football fans were buying rare sixties US soul at his shop Soul City in Covent Garden

[@davidbrown5646]

Yes, thank you. I meant to say Dave Godin, but spellcheck has defeated me yet again!

[@WakoJacKooo]

being into house music and the trance techno scene i branched out yesterday and went to a northern soul event,, blew me away ,, will go to more,, a completely different kettle of fish as theres is no 4/4 beat and trying to dance to it was hard tbh so gotta practice the moves for next time lol

[@carlito571]

I went the other way in 1989.As quite a few others did.For about two years......back to northern tho.Enjoyed the rave scene and the trappings that went with it.Nothing compares to NS tho.Good luck with the moves brother✊🏿

I'm from Manchester in England and there it isn't just a big deal with whites and blacks mixing in clubs, and dancing to white or black DJs. Never really has been. I know there's a different back story in the U.S.A though. I'm sure you'll agree that if a piece of music's great, it is good if as many people as possible hear it. In regard to the phrase "northern soul", funnily enough, it seems to come from the U.S.A. or even northern England, but London record shop DJs.

The CIVIL RIGHTS ERA was a tumultuous time! There was a lot of segregation, this is where this R&B SOUL emanated from!

[@charlesf.roland542]

Deceived is the shit!!! What about me by Sonny Herman is SMOKIN,Dennis Edwards from the temps,Bobby Womack!!! NICE!!!

[@davidbrown5646]

Damn you spell check! I corrected that 3 times before I posted that msg, yet it still managed to change it. It should have read "Dave Godin", not " Dave go in order"

[@tracyhammond9191]
