That footage was from one of those weird early 80s southern soul crew things, wasn't it?

(just watched the first few minutes, gotta go out . . . ) That's ace.

Northern soul dancers, you can watch em for ages. You start to see little substyles in people's dancing - the gliders, the hoppers, the bouncers etc.

I never did crack the spin

Yes, definitely Northern Soul dancers

There was a brilliant short (7 mins) film which won the 2005 Becks Futures Prize called 'Long After Tonight' by Matt Stokes which was of Northern Soul dancers in a disused church, It was shown at the ICA and I watched it through three times - it was so evocative of the scene (if that's the right word to use!)

Why aren't more people gushing over this?

I can't listen to it with the sounds that high, but it's ok - not worthy of a gush though.

I bet those who don't get it don't enjoy dancing.

Or just don't think this piece of 'art' is that good, and not so keen on all the wanky reviews of it

I was actually moved to tears

Maybe it's different if you can hear the music properly? I have no headphones.
