Touch Of Northern Soulio

Outta Sight presents a Touch of Northern Soul, a trip down memory lane, or rather Station Road, Wigan. Wigan Casino opened it's doors to the first experimental All-Nighter in the early hours of Sunday morning, 23rd September 1973. That experiment was to last for eight long years and was to bring Northern Soul into every UK household via the, now legendary, Granada TV documentary about the underground dance music scene. Membership of the Casino spiraled to over 100,000, although some casual observers just wanted to own the iconic membership card and never actually visited. But for the devotees the Casino was a sanctuary, a home-from-home, and the music and camaraderie would become a lifelong obsession.
