Blues & Soul, 42 Hanway Street, London

To be able to read something
about Soul Music in the U.K. in the sixties was a treat.
There wasn't much about. My
introduction to the written word was in late 1968 when I
discovered Blues and Soul in a Glasgow shop. It
was in A5 format and was a dream come true. For the next
four or five years, I built my collection around the
recommendations of the editor, John Abbey. John knew his
stuff o.k. and when he stopped doing the reviews, I had to
find another source.
Blues and Soul would soon
develop as a focal point for Northern Soul fans, firstly
through The Dave Godin Column and several years later
through The Frank Elson Column. Frank
was a North of England journalist, and his articles are a
good history of the scene as it moved from club to club, and
as the rare records were being discovered.
Notes thanks to David Meikle.
