blue eyed soul...
Pictured: England Dan & John Ford Coley 1976
This page has arrived as a result of the 'What Is Soul / What Isn't Soul?' debate. I believe that this topic ought to be given a wide birth if you are talking to a soul anorack, however, even the most die hard Northern Soul Fan would lend earspace to the likes of Chris Clark or Dusty Springfield, so here we go. If you think that I have lost the plot.....well....it's a fair cop! You pays your money.... Still, I hope this page sparks some sort of debate. Anyhow, it should put the proverbial cat amongst the anoracks!!
