Various Artists - Club Soul: The Twisted Wheel (LP)

N/A

The Twisted Wheel in Manchester is one of the legendary names in British clubbing history. Originally launched in a coffee bar in 1963, it quickly developed a reputation as one of the country'€™s finest venues for hearing obscure, imported soul, R&B and ska records. Music fans would flock from all around the country to the weekly all-nighters to hear these records along with live sets from some of the finest soul artists of the time. The term '€˜northern soul'€™ was in fact first coined by the journalist Dave Godin following a visit to the Twisted Wheel to describe the distinctive brand of music played there.

Catapult yourself back to the mid-'€™60s with the biggest classics that were once spun at the Twisted Wheel. This collection features a host of legendary R&B artists including Bobby '€œBlue'€ Bland, Joe Haywood, The Sharpees, Benny Spellman, Alvin Robinson, Solomon Burke, Ernie K-Doe, The Rubaiyats, The Ad Libs, Bo Diddley, Fats Domino and more, all newly restored from the original analogue tapes.
