How commercially successful/popular was Northern soul at the time?
Some fantastic records, many remind me of Motown type stuff which you can't help but love.
Some of the little 7" go for plenty of cash too.
I bet Barrie Jay could do a top NS set and woukdnt be surprised if poofter Perkins could do:;

I recall Paul from back in the day as a result of this documentary.
It was obviously personal tom him and taken from his view point but far far too much Casino for me and not enough Wheel/ Torch/ Mecca (at least it got a mention) where, to me, where far more influential on the scne tune wise than the Casino.
The Casino (mostly through Russ) played some truly dreadful fucking records but the bad times fade and the good times remain.
Overall, it was a fair decent documentary, touched on drugs which, let`s face it, they had to, and provided a decent update on the scene as it is nowadays.
