Caught this when it was repeated two nights ago. Not the worlds biggest Northern Soul fan, but I do like it. I have to say, that was the best orchestral performance of non-classical repertoire that I have ever heard. The trombones were blowing like the best of the Big Bands, the string arrangements were fabulous. I thought the vocals were pretty authentic too - the first singer had a great timbre, and one of the women had an amazing lower register. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

I’m pis*ed off that I missed the recent tour ‘Northern Soul Orchestrated’ which was this exact show.

They came to Sheffield City Hall too, one of my favourite venues. Hopefully they will be doing some

more dates at some point, as all of the dates were sell outs. Just great seeing so many talented singers

and lots of musicians making such a big and happy sound - loved it.
Bassist Steve Pearce commented that it was one of the best gigs ever, and he should know!
