ONE 45: NORTHERN SOUL: Kev Roberts: DJ, promoter, author

“How Could It Be by The Esquires. A song that I knew off their album in the late sixties early seventies - forgotten all about it til one of my djs played it at the King’s Hall Stoke and it reminded me about how I got into the business, how I love Soul music, how I like Northern Soul. It’s one of the greatest group sounds of all time in my opinion - so much going on, it’s a very busy record.Unbelievably sold zero - but they were a wonderful group who had big hits like ‘Get On Up’ and then a follow up called ‘Get Away.’ They’re out of Milwaukie Wisconsin just a tremendous group, and anyone who wants to feel good about Northern Soul take a listen, it’s the real business.”Kev Roberts: Thorpe Salvin, 4th February 2017Esquires: How Could It BeOne 45 interviews - audio
