Description

The Northern Soul Scene is a vibrant and enduring music culture that originated in the English North and Midlands in the early 1970s. This book brings together a diverse range of perspectives on the history and contemporary nature of the scene, featuring newly commissioned essays, pivotal earlier articles, and insightful interviews.

Through a mix of academic research, journalistic articles, and evocative photographs, this anthology provides a rich and diverse statement about the music, people, and practices that constitute the northern soul scene in the UK and beyond. Representations of the scene from different media and historical locations are juxtaposed to create a nuanced understanding of this unique cultural phenomenon.
