Peggy Spencer is spot on.......... yes it came from the heart..........the soul.......but... quote 'they will grow out of that' unquote......no no no she doesn't realise how deep the soul is and as time has proven, anyone who attended wigan casino and felt the magic will tell you it never dies its always with you and we wil never grow out off it.......KTF

Happy Memories of Wigan Casino if it was still open now it would be a Gold mine There will never be a place like it again Just glad I got to go there many times If only I had a time machine to go back to the Amazing Night's I had there I am still Keeping The Faith

We did go just to dance but many a romance came from within the scene and I married a NS girl back in the day

Northern Soul was never and still isnt a venue. It really doesn't matter if it was the Casino, the Wheel, Blackpool, Mecca, the Winter Gardens or Pier at Cleethorpes.. Its a bringing together of totally disparate groups of people under one banner.. THE MUSIC AND FRIENDSHIP.. Ktf

Tolly T FACT; in all the time Wigan Casino was open, there was never ONE conviction for drugs in connection with the Casino.

Used to go the Torch, but only cos I lived in Stoke. Absolutely brilliant memories. There was NS nights at the Top Rank in Hanley too later on, Ian Lavine was DJ there if I remember right....✊✊✊

For his contribution to the Northern Soul scene in Britain (latterly the world) imho, I think Russ Winstanley should've been mentioned in the Queens New Year's Honours List. The man brought people from all over the country together in celebration of the music. & gave memories that the aforementioned, myself included, have cherished ever since & continue to do so. GOD BLESS YOU RUSS

Yeah! why not. I could think of a few guy's from the scene that could qualify for that accolade, and there's more going way back to the git-go. Myself, it would be fellow scot John Anderson who provided a lot of the DJ's with the sounds they played in the 70's but I like to think that the Scene is a collective of people doing their best to keep the faith with the music we all love.

I think that it is on the Sky Arts Channel at 3.30am Go into Catch Up and do a search for Northern Soul, you will also see that both of the recent films, Northern Soul and Soul Boy are still available to watch.

Never heard such 'missing the point', patronising b.s. as from that Peggy Spencer. We were grown up souls, whatever physical age we were. I hate it when people who haven't got a clue and will probably never get it, talk down to us who did. Pissed off!

5:53 "It was Lucozade that kept the majority of people going". I Know old Russ wasn't the sharpest guy, but he knows he is lying. It was dexamphetamine that kept 95% of the people going. Would have been 100%, but some people just came to have a look.

We enjoyed first , the highland room , then on to casino , collin curtis ian levine , russ winstanley ,living near blackpool , it was pretty dam fine , but having to work on a sunday had its negs , best ever at casino , footsie , the all crowd on the floor was as totally as one , here we were in the cathreall of northern ! When i whent to work i got sympathy , they thought that i was ill , no , just alittle bit tired . I could do it then 24 hour clock , now im nackered , but the music , not all of it , but the toppers , no room on the danse floor . Why did they really have to pull the casino down , with out any consultation , hey greater manchester council , why . Think there is some good christian members of the council that made that discission , and he had a younge daughter , it would happen in memphis or the motor city . Time for a swim . Keep the faith ! ! !
