So I'm 62yrs young ha! And let me tell you never ever will there be great times like this again ever,first time around mods,all nighters,great music,great fashion,and most of all great friends.
I can only imagine, I was around 9 when it came back in the 80's, I'd never seen young people look so cool, I went to school with sta press, Hushpuppies, a boating blazer and a cravat, at 9 and started looting 60's music
I’m the same age and I agree we were and are totally blessed to have lived thru the beautiful times!!! Nth London was a great place to be with great times and great mates, the music bound us all together even at our reunions in our later years!! Mods, skins , soulboys ….. loved every minute of it!!!
I did all this in the late nineties, same music, same clothes (second hand), all nighters at the same clubs, good deodorant, better dental health and we had ecstasy on top.
@@kimsutherland977 yeah, I listened to the sixties all through my life. The best clubs I went to played plenty of music you would never have even heard back then. Rare and unsuccessful but superb. Add the ecstasy on top and it’s pure heaven.
I have so many Northern Soul singles.And its taken me a while to realise that this is probably the essence of Northern Soul.So evocative of time and and place.And a b side.Magic
Im 66 just got into Northern soul back in 2017 when i was 59 went to my first Aldayer in 2019 i was into Motown back in the 70s i was a smoothly thats what we were class ourselves as because i was into all types of music but i did have a chance to go alnighter when i was 17 in 1975 but i turned down the offer because i was told there was dope involved so i never went i class myself a Northern soul girl now im glad i had a second chance of getting into Northern soul and i love it although Motown will always be my favourite music and part of me is still that smoothly back in the 70s been 17 and dancing to Motown was absolutely fantastic we did dance like the Northern soul dancers but we didn't do back drops or spins or high kicks but the moves are very similar beween the both styles of dancing im glad im part of Northern soul now
At 61 I've been through so many styles of fashion and music . Loved my journey and can't beat the oldies. Brings me back to life and have to dance......hear it drop it and move. Brilliant
Wow! This reminded me so much of my later teen years. I had my Lambretta, girlfriend on the back, and just having fun! The days have long gone but some fond memories remain. Thanks Jill for some wonderful times I will always cherish.
Loved it lived it I'm 69 and all I do is play Frank Wilson dobie gray and a lot of tamla can't walk but put the music on and I will dance my kids have disowned me but I just put my music on and dance
And who can resist getting up to move, or to start toe tapping and head moving when this is played , wherever its played. Its got a rolling tempo, that heightens to drive the beat down into your feet... Ah,yay I'm a fan of this man....KTF
Yes, just the right tempo for an owd fat lad to still manage a dance and a bit of hand clapping too!! :o) There used to be a version of this with film taken at Lowton showing dancers but it seems to have been removed :o(
Oh those clothes , leather coats , blue nylon macs , loafers , Crombie coats , Ben Sherman shirts , Peter Pan collars , and the best music ever , northern soul , Motown ❤️
Spot on Farweasel. As well as The Wheel, there were places in Manchester like Takis, Top Of The Town, The Oasis (later Sloopys) playing soul back in the mid-late 60s. Stuff like Willie Mitchell, Otis, Sam and Dave, The Temps plus slightly rarer stuff like Major Lance, Billy Butler, Shorty Long was being played all over the place (Browns in Stretford, The Locarno in Sale etc) before NS was even a twinkle in Dave Godin's eye. We were leaping all over the place to it in our Ben Shermans, Lee Riders and brogues from '66 onwards and only ever referred to it all as soul. I don't recall knowing the term Reggae back then. We always knew it as Ska or Bluebeat. We sort of regarded ourselves as mods but later preferred the soulboys tag!
None of them 60s mods in that footage had ever heard this record. It was a northern classic. Played in northern all-nighters. When this was being played those mods were bring babies up. It was played in M's without a scooter in sight
@@dominichetherington2287 Hallo Dom . Ok then , well , if what you say is true and as you say, you were there , can you tell me in what year and at which venue was Lonely for me first broken? Ste. Honest question .
Hallo Dom . After doing some research , I have to admit , I 'was' talking shite when I said that this record - Sam Dees , Lonley for you baby - was played in M's , it wasn't . My memory was playing tricks on me. A good mate of mine who used to DJ at the VA VA 's ,the Casino , the Ritz ,Top of the world Stafford, Morecambe pier and every other major venue since 1972 , and who worked for RCA records , who instigated the Grapevine label and founded Expansion records and who to this day promotes the biggest Northern soul and Modern soul events on the Soul Scene calender , and who still broadcasts soul music shows on several radio stations , and who has also wrote several books on the UK soul Scene.........reminded me that this track , and I quote , "only came to prominence after the casino closed (in 1981) . It may have been Stafford where it finally broke through " (1982 to 1986) . So Dom , you didn't hear it in the Flamingo club nor the Twisted Wheel or any of Mod Clubs of the 60s , "when mods (ravers) ruled " did you ? Although it was first issued in 1968 on the American SSS lable , as anyone with the most basic knowledge of the soul scene knows , thousands of tracks that were recorded by obscure artists in the US lay dormant utill they were "unearthed" by Northern soul DJ's and collectors in warehouses in Detroit and Chicago and were then brought back to the Uk and played on the Northern Scene , in the 70's and 80's . "Lonely for you baby " wasn't played until Stafford in the 80s - I was there too - it has never been considered a Mod record by knowledgeable soul fans , as , say Mitch Ryder and the Detroit wheels is , IE, played in the Mod clubs in the 60s , ......Trust me , I was there , since 75 in the casino ,actually. And I've obviously forgot more about soul music that you'll ever know . Like I said , the Mods in the footage of this video would have been in thier 40s when this track was first played in the soul clubs in the 80s - trust me, I knew some of them. I think that the person who linked this track to this Mods footage comes from the scooter Scene (no problem with that) but it's creating a false narrative . It is a Northern soul record originally. " Talkin' shite eh ?" You dropped a bollock there , pal didn't you ? Keep the faith , Ste.

The best style Britain ever had.
Best clothes, best 2 wheeled bikes, best girls, best attitude, best music. We are the Mods..............
This is why I’ve loved northern soul for over 50 years. Fantastic tunes to dance to and everyone with a smile on their face #keep the faith

Has there ever been a look that stood the test of time like the Mod look! Bloody fantastic!
Quite simply, no.
i dont see many that new understood the blues and soul divide with nort and sout more than the midlands lol
Style was in. Mods smart, rockers smart greasy leather. What fun 🎉
Great song ,great footage of 60s mods ,the music the style was the real thing ,everything else since imitation.
The music is how we will remember them. PURE CLASS generation.
Thank God I was a mod,so lucky to have gone through this era as a teenager.

Neil Austin Dam right it is. Take care.
Do you realize there are two kinds of Northern Soul? One Black American, one Northern Irish.

In the 60s we always referred the sounds as either wheel tuned or soul ska and mostly blue beat
