No probs. here it is again from what I can remember.
Lookin at the average age in this vid just proves that Northern never was a fad. For the true soulsters it hooked have never left, or have come back, to their roots. No other music scene can boast such committment.
Although I'm a Lincs lad I always enjoyed being around the South Yorks crowd. You always knew where you stood with 'em.
Remember a few good nights at the Brickyard.

Not many people realise that if you draw a line through Mexborough, it's actually the centre of South Yorkshire in terms of Sheffield, Doncaster, Rotherham and Barnsley. I have always said that Mexborough is the heart of northern soul. Sod Wigan.
Great pictures of all the people I know so well. Wish I had taken the opportunity to capture so many characters past and present. Maybe next time.
