Could anyone please tell me the name of the song playing at 05:23?

it's by Judy Street called "What?". It's on the Album "The Best Northern Soul Allnighter" if you were interested.

Thanks for the speedy reply. No, it's the song played just before this. Any ideas??

Hi there - I think I can help you. The song is by Rain and is called "out of my mind". The 45 shouldn't be too expensive for you to find.

A piece of social history + nostalgia. I was member no 555, there on the first night in Sept 73. The footage is about 10 years later, not long before the club's sad demise. Speaking of sad demises, the old guy's marvellous rich Lancashire accent won't be heard much more. What about club manager Mike Walker's bizarre black tie attire!.... and I'm sure there was never a Socialist Worker seller in a collar n' tie. .

I remember that weekend well. We started off Friday night at a Nuneaton soul nite, hitched to VaVas, Bolton for the allnighter. Then on to Mecca on the Saturday before Wigan. It turned at the Casino for me when all those crap instrumentals were being played. Still great memories.

Perhaps the truest and most honest comment I've ever read on here. The music was, and still is, absolutely mindblowing. However, it was the people that made the Northern Scene what it was/is. You're absolutely right, those of us who were around before the cameras came in really were trailblazers in Social Cohesion and Integration. Great music that would be totally forgotten if not for a relatively few lads/lasses from the heart of the UK whose whole existance revolved around the coming weekend.
