Heads up!

[Feel Good By Numbers]

half way through the doc when they were talking bout the Blackpool Mecca there was a slow jazz/piano track playing in the back ground; anyone know what the track was? really caught my ear.

BTW - thought i'd share this; my mate is behind the 'northern soul dance class' which occurs in Manchester if anyone wants to learn some moves; i think the next one is in August.

Do you know what time? The Mecca bit seemed to have Morris Chestnut in the background when I re-watched but that's not slow or jazz:

Wade in the Water? Not that slow either...

Really enjoyed watching that over breakfast this morning.
Put me out of my misery please, what's the belter at 16.23?

Cheers for posting the link;
I'd had a couple of beers when i watched it last night so my genre descriptions may be a bit off the mark but the track I'm on about is at the 51 minute mark

Much appreciated. One more on the list.

Can anyone help me out with the tune at 56:34, it sounds famailiar but I can't place it.

Lyrics I could catch "..In the morning yes I will..right on baby.." and "I love my baby speciady"

Speciady is what the lyric sounds like to my ears, don't know what the real word is!

Cheers

Got it :-)

Enjoyed this docu - great to see so many of the original DJs - especially Colin Curtis - get a look in.

This was my "introduction" to Northern Soul courtesy of Top of the Pops back in 1975:

Yes indeed it was that track... played during the video collage of the "depressed north west".
