I hope you enjoy this Chanel it was created to promote all aspects of Northern Soul and to make found memories, if you cant leave positive comments then please dont leave any at all I will remove negative ones. The whole idea is to showcase the wonderful music, the fashions, the events, the venues, the dancing, and most of all the people and community that come together ALL OVER THE COUNTRY to enjoy this lifestyle not to be nasty and ridicule people. Thanks for your help with this request.
My name is Ralph I recently retired having reached the landmark age of 65 “what do I do now ?” is the question I asked myself. What do I enjoy the most well that was easy to answer I love to dance and I love to listen to Northern Soul this love of the above started what seems a lifetime ago in the late 60’s when I discovered a small dark and dirty place called THE CATACOMBS then followed by THE TORCH for those with really good memories UP THE JUNCTION and the scene was cast that would frame my life. - Hudba
A lesson in dancing from a super talented youngster - priceless! (Stephen Cootes from Edinburgh. He just won the World Northern Dancing Competition. Well deserved imo)
I just became a fan !! Thanks you for Stephens info. 🙏
wow just fab
Bloody Hell I've Gone All Dizzy Just Watching HIM! I Was There That Year So (2 Years In a Row) & I Thought He Was a Brilliant Dancer Then! 🎉
Thanks for naming this great dancer 😊❤
Hi stephen what terrific moves you have. R u single??? I cant stop watching this video of you. So passionate with every move. What a northern dancer. ❤
This dancer is great,good balance and rhythm and he interpretates the music so well.Nice to see people enjoying themselves,no nastiness or fights just sharing the moment and the dance floor.
Thank you very much!
AND SUDDENLY ..... the younger ones have become like we were... awesome and so beautiful to see. x 💙
So true without the youngsters coming into the scene unfortunately it will die.no disrespect to people my age 50s/60s and 70s year old our minds willing but our bodies don't quite work it.doesnt mean to lay down and give but the scene does need the younger energetic crowd to push it forward.it doesn't matter how old we our Northern soul which is incredibly nearly 60 years is so damned good it should never be allowed to fade away
There was a time when everyone danced at the pier at cleathorpes with that passion now it just a memory
I remember Vernon that used to go to the Casino in the 70s man could he spin indeed he could
He’s brilliant. I wish I could dance like that. 6 months later I keep coming back to watch this and still wishing.
All eyes are on that lad. Awesome dancer.
He's just too good for words! Nevertheless, a few adjectives are in order: Silky smooth, agile, elegant, original, focused and with an impeccable sense of rhythm. Thank you!
agreed.........and perfect
seen better some of the best dancers dont go to the tower ..
@@davecanly7535 Where can one catch a glimpse of the "better" ones, please? I think this guy sensational! If there are better then I want to see them! Thanks.
@@pninnabokov3734 spinner Steve Kidderminster ..think John barker soul dj runs a soul night where Steve goes to .. also try the dome aldayer 17th Sept tuffnell park London ok
Now there is a man who really feels this music, great mover
Ron Wylie absolutely correct you are and not many realize it:- It’s feeling the music that makes an exceptional dancer.
This is what the scene was all about in the 70's and 80's. So light on his feet, so engrossed in the music and his spins look effortless. So envious.
I'm over 60 and can still do the splits,it's the only way I can spin coming back up! it takes loads of practise and not being fussed about falling over + messing up,well worth it imo
One of the few actually in tune with the music. Too many northern soul dancers got no rhythm. He got it.
I've been back to this video many times.. cause I love the music and the dancing fits so well as it appears almost effortless... an absolute classic oldie, and Mr Cootes does it justice. At about 19 seconds when Cootes put his hands in his pockets I'm expecting him to pull out a packet of Embassy Filter and a Zippo, which would be very period for Wigan / Stoke in the 70's :)
This guy is cool as.He is not overdoing it.Although he obviously could.Putting the right moves to the right tune.....class✊🏻✊🏿
By far the best 'spinners' I ever saw were the 'Twins' at the Catacombs [1972]. They were both incredible and could hold a perfect spin for around 10 seconds. 'Little Pete' was quite good too [he was captured on video at Wigan].
I was switching between the dude who luvs to spin, damn he is good and the lady in a short white dress (thin legs) who basically just stood there. Kept waiting for her to move, but didn’t want to miss the guys dancing. Enjoyed that for some reason. Great music
I thought her interpretation of the track quite bizarre and was also switching viewing between the two 🤔 🤣 was she lost or just mash up ? All welcome at a soul do ! KTF
Yep she was weird in her own little world, I think she was maybe a little spaced out on something hehe 😂
Zombies are everywhere - lol
she is handicapped
Clearly handicapped, trying her best poor comments
He’s really good. I could watch him dance for ages
Steve Cootes The flying Scotsmen he is the best at spinning iv seen but also a brilliant all rounder.1 of my favourite N.S.dancers.A privilege to watch him.
I agree magic
1:27 anyone know of other videos of Steve Cootes?
Agreed he's a natural #1
Every move is perfect , watched him a million times over , brilliant , ,!!!!! and never get bored his amazing , keep on keeping on the faith , amazing dancer , 😍😍xxx
Dont you just wish when you see this lad doing his moves " FANTASTIC " I must say. Could go back to the best days ever.
Steve Cootes what a brilliant
dancer & spinner a joy to watch seen him dance a
few times at Blackpool
Amazing dancer.. I hope he's at Blackpool in November
Thank you quarantine you have made me discover Northern soul dancing where have I been ??
You're very welcome, however I have no idea kat but make up for lost time lol
Uve.got.too.be.of.a.certain.age.too.really.no.bowt.it.i.was.17.now.im.67
That lad deffo knows how to get his kicks out on the floor ,. Brilliant dancing
I love to drop the odd spin now and then. A young 67 year old. You have to love Northern Soul.
Wow! Can't stop watching! Amazing dancer...
Nice to see a young lad enjoying the scene. However... He needs to meet Vernon from Bradford.... The KING of spinners. A lot of old Wigan footage features him spinning like a top.
In a class of his own, more importantly lost in the music
So true so true.2020 I am lost in music at the moment forgetting all about the crap corona virus and silly riots
Thomas Grove... Just love that man. His moves ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@Yorkie2 His name is Stephen Cootes. Great young dancer..
@@tollyt7465 certainly is a great young dancer. 👍

Class from London, Class 🏴
Now that man can move 👏👏👏
Great to see the younger generations enjoy the northern soul scene ✊👏👏
Some people just make it look so bloody easy 👍👋👋effortless and. Superb young too👍
I can't stop watching this. The way he controls those spins is amazing ❤️
Watch Vernon for TOTAL CONTROL
he's young , fit , alot of energy we where all like that back in 70s not now over weight beer belly junk food shit
"We were all like that" Don't think so!
Don't sell yourself short,
There's men our age, who can still pull them moves off sir.
Absolutely spot-on mate ✊
Excellent dancer whoever he is, top moves & mover ❤
KTF X
Now this is a proper spinner. No talc.no ice skates just pure quality natural spinner and absolutely brilliant northern soul dancer. KTF✊✊
Well cool... not just the spins but the fact that they are in time. So often the spins, and in fact all the acrobatic stuff, loses synch with the music but not this chap. Now lets see ya spin the other way! :)
Wonderful this man can truly dance and entertain those all around him,no excuses I'm a complete and utter dedicated PINK FLOYD FAN Through and THROUGH and not ashamed to admit that...but .....I also enjoy tripping and hipping to northern soul at the tender age of 58!!!, long live fabulous music of all ages to all ages.....!!!!!!!!.
Cant get enough of this northern soul dancin im hooked love to learn it. All on the dance floor are great all ages too brilliant
Talk about a kool dude. This guy's out there.

Crazy Gram you don’t get dizzy going that speed, I was a spinner back in the day, the slower you go the worse it is
The girl in the denim jacket middle of the dance floor dances like one of those Crack heads you see in the park that never quite fall over...
Found that far funnier than I should!
Spice head.
Looks pissed.
Keep the faith xx
Brilliant. .😀
Great moves !!!
