I chose the latter and still am today but that doesn't stop me from loving great soul music. It's the music of my childhood and youth and I'll always love it.

A new US release at the tail end of 1975. We never regarded it as 'Northern' at the time - on the contrary, it was a typical seventies sound ala. Blackpool Mecca, alongside many others from The Phildelphia Ambassadors (the former Arctic group), Crystal Motion, Got-Cha, Intrepids, Blood Hollins, Carolyn Crawford, Leon Collins, Charles Drain, Gail Eason - only a few of which crossed over to the wider 'Northern Scene' (ie. Barnaby Bye, and much later Rick Sheppard) usually via Cleethorpes. Wigan was always way behind the curve.
