Reminds me of when I sang 'got busted' instead of 'ghostbusters'

You should have been at Accy Disco in '67 - one of the places where Northern Soul started.

Northern Soul is supposed to be making a comeback, but don't here to much about it, will have to Google it and see what comes up

Re: Favorite Memories of Accrington

Re: Favorite Memories of Accrington

Northern Soul has a big following throughout the country, with some of the best nights being in the north west.

We've had some great nights in Bury, Burnley and Blackburn with the Spanish Room at Blackpool Winter Gardens being a Superb Night. (Not all the towns start with B though)

The wife and I are keen Soulies and as the phrase goes "Keeping the Faith".

Re: Favorite Memories of Accrington

I used to love going to Wigan Casino during the 70's - great sounds, great atmosphere. The Old Band Club and the British Legion in Accy put on some good nights as well. Like all types of good music (rhythm 'n' blues, rock 'n' roll etc), it never dies!
