Description

Shop Vinyl and CDs and complete your collection. Conventional wisdom has it that, in the late 1970s, the Blackpool Mecca was the exclusive home of the 'progressive' end of Northern soul. However, if you believe that it was Wigan Casino-style Sixties stompers everywhere east of the Golden Mile, then Goldmine's superb 'Cleethorpes' retrospective might come as a shock. Cleethorpes' "Talk of the North" all-nighters began in February 1975, housed in the town's Pier ballroom

Cleethorpes is a seaside resort on the estuary of the Humber in North East Lincolnshire with a population of nearly 40,000 in 2011. It has been permanently occupied since the 6th century, with fishing as its original industry, then developing into a resort in the 19th century. The town lies on the Greenwich meridian and its average annual rainfall is amongst the lowest in the British Isles.

They're outnumbered, however, by selections from artists only collectors will know, particularly if they frequent Northern soul nights at Cleethorpes or elsewhere. The music's weighted toward uptempo, grooving '60s sides that aren't from the Southern "deep soul" camp or, often, quite as slick as Motown, though Motown's a big influence.

Landmark & historical place.

Conventional wisdom has it that, in the late 1970s, the Blackpool Mecca was the exclusive home of the 'progressive' end of Northern soul. However, if you believe that it was Wigan Casino-style Sixties stompers everywhere east of the Golden Mile, then Goldmine's superb 'Cleethorpes' retrospective might come as a shock.Cleethorpes' "Talk of the North" all-nighters began in February 1975, housed in the town's Pier ballroom. They ran every fortnight for thirteen legendary months and proved so popular that the promoter, Mary Chapman, ended up having to hire the local Winter Gardens to house the over-spilling crowds of ecstatic soul fans and spinning dancers.One factor in this success must have been the all-embracing music policy. Chapman's DJs would play any shade of Black American-style dance music as long as it was rare, soulful and good quality - and kept the soul boys and girls dancing all night! Thankfully, the magical quality and diversity of the 'Cleethorpes' sound' is reflected in this collection, chosen by Mary 'the Queen of Northern Soul' Chapman herself.So, what we have here is a 25-track journey from traditional sixties soul through funk to disco and beyond. Typical of the variety on offer is the raw, spaced out funk of "Your Autumn of Tomorrow" by The Crow and "I'm Your Pimp" by the Skull Snaps, the pure modern soul sound of Spooky & Sues' "I've Got The Need" and the proto-Balearic house style (yes, honestly!) of Silvetti's "Spring Rain" with its piano hooks and thumping rhythm. The amazing thing is that, despite all of this eclecticism, the music never sounds anything less than perfectly 'right-on' for the Northern soul scene.There are no real low points on this album and the proper killer tracks (such as Danny Hunt's Wonder-ful "What's Happening To This Love Affair" and "Girl You Better Wake Up" by Liberty) make it doubly worth seeking out.
