I've collected, DJ'd and danced to Northern Soul since going to Wigan Casino in the late 1970's. These recordings are made so that long into the future, anyone can visit KZbin and continue to learn about and listen to this fantastic music, after I'm gone. They were recorded in the USA at a period in time when sadly overlooked. Only to be discovered and played in the 1970's soul clubs of the UK, and now played in many venues in countries all over the world. Many are recorded on obscure record labels, that simply never got airplay and the small number of records that were pressed, just disappeared. Hence their rarity.
If you wish to find out more about the fantastic and varied world of Northern Soul, search out the website - SoulSource. I warn you though, once down the rabbit hole, you could be hooked. I have no affiliation to the site, but there you will find a wealth of knowledge from dedicated lovers of the music. Together they know every artist, band member, pressing plant, label, label owner and origin of every track. Some so knowledgable that they can even tell you who the third saxophonist on the left was on some of the recordings. Others on the rare soul scene though may argue that it was his brother! Whoever is right, Northern Soul fascinates and satisfies many over 50years on.

[@davidevans4089]

Nice selections, you have spent a lot of money over the years well done.

[@BazFromThePast]

Cheers Dave. It’s been a constant dilemma of musical chairs since Wigan closed - every year thinking the prices had peaked. But thankfully values have been maintained as the Northern Soul movement has grown around the world. The best investment has to be in something you love.

Any OVO event that I'm asked Jim. All proceeds to Cancer Research.

[@wooliemark1071]

Good for you Baz. If people enjoy your videos as much as me, they can thank you by making a modest donation by text message via here: www.cancerresearchuk.org/support-us/donate/other-ways-to-donate

[@BazFromThePast]

Cheers Mark, star man!

[@jimchorley]

BazFromThePast Do you ever get booked for events on or near the South coast ?

[@BazFromThePast]

Not yet Jim. If the cash for Cancer research is enough, I'd make the journey if you know any organiser down there? They can contact me on Facebook under Baz Sharples.

[@SniffMyDeadwax]

7 dislikes, smells of jealousy what’s not to love 💔

[@BazFromThePast]

You never know, not everyone likes the same sounds. If you’re right though, folks should realise the sacrifices and risks taken to build a northern soul collection. Better still, as you say, just love and enjoy the music. Cheers B

[@SniffMyDeadwax]

What system u using there man?

[@BazFromThePast]

Swervyn Mervyn No worries Merv. Decks are Technic SL1200 Special Anniversary Edition with Ortifon Concord Cartridge and DJM350 Pioneer Mixer. Recorded straight to USB on the mixer.
