The Club That Set The Template For Northern Soul

 

Compiled With Founding Dj Carl Dene And Newly Remastered For The Club’s 50th Anniversary

 

“Before the Catacombs there was Rhythm & Blues, after the Catacombs there was Northern Soul” Carl Dene

 

They called it “the greatest little Soul Club in the land” and, as history tells us, it bridged the gap between the R&B of the Twisted Wheel and the “adrenalin” soul of the Golden Torch. It was an integral part of the rare soul movement and set the template for what became known as Northern Soul!

 

This stunning vinyl album is compiled in association with the club’s founding DJ, Carl Dene, and celebrates its 50th Anniversary. It has been newly remastered and pressed to 180g heavyweight audiophile vinyl complete with sleeve notes and a printed inner sleeve.
