- I read the comments and produced this video
This channel was created to promote all aspects of Northern Soul. 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.
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
Hey that's my dad he's just out for the weekend, and he's loving it
Cool
Fantastic
😊👍👌
I’ve got the exact same Vespa canvas as this guy has above his monitor
Brilliant
Barry Smith. I was drinking with him and his wife in Bojangles in Tennerife 15/09/22. Great guy. We actually danced to The Snake.
This guy isn't just dancing, he's telling the story.
Pure joy , respect to Stripey the unknown dancer also.
Dizzy ducks .. I’d have been on me back after one of them spins
Very spinny
@@neildavies4332Viva Spinny!
Thats his youthful Northern soul dancing mixed with his Dad dancing. He's right where he needs to be.... HAPPY!
Fantastic, I just love it how ordinary blokes just ...dance like this. It's brilliant to see their freedom of spirit.
Obviously a guy that was into back in the 70s.
There must be thousands of people that haven't been into the scene for 40 years but they still remember all the songs and dance moves like it was yesterday.
This is what growing old gracefully looks like - never losing the joy of living and defining for yourself what gives you pleasure! Wonderful footage.
Spot on 100%
I was gonna say this is what clinging to a youth cult at middle age looks like
Some great videos showing younger generation also getting in the groove 😉
Thank you that is my hope
Wonderfully put. 💙🤙🏽
His name is Barry smith, he’s from Bradford and also a member of the Phoenix Bradford scooter club.
I am from US and I just came across this type of dancing it looks fun to do. That guy seem as though he was really enjoying the music with the dancing. I had looked up this type of this dancing and I was very amazed. It started out as an underground Soul dancing in the 1960's. I had watch the Southern and the Northern dancers it was fun to watch them enjoying themselves young and the old together.
I don't know him, but he is here to dance, sing and enjoy himself no matter what any body else thinks, good on ya. One very happy guy.
This man's having a blast! Great song and video! 😊🙏💜
That guy represents anybody that takes the dance floor and ain't doing anything but his own thing. Top bloke
That’s just brilliant! That’s how Northern Soul still makes me feel. Twenty years younger, joyful, free of responsibility, and light on my feet.
20 years younger? Makes me feel 40 years younger.
Love Strippies spins
He makes me smile just watching him
Such a joy to watch too! Thank you. Your man is clearly having a grand old time and making everyone watching this smile at his pure abandonment as he enjoys the moment. And long may he and all the dancers continue to do so.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you as you may be aware by now, the unknown dancer is apparently Barry Smith from Bradford West Yorkshire.
Love watching this the enjoyment just of that song and dancing 🕺
Wicked 🇨🇮✊🎶❤
I'm not a particular fan of Northern Soul in spite of having very eclectic taste in music. However, I loved seeing all these guys dancing and feeling free to do so. In the haunts I used to frequent, blokes only ever danced with a girl in their arms. It's so nice to see these fellers expressing themselves and yes, the joyful character in the white top epitomises it
Absolutely fantastic seeing everyone enjoying themselves in this video 👍🏻
Oh my days. Not sure if this is Butlins Northern Soul weekend at Skegness last September 2018 but me & my hubby sat on the side of the stage watching this guy for ages just smiling watching him smiling. Love it ❤️
Yes indeed the Skyline looking forward to meeting Barry again
This man has shown the happiness I felt and totally showed on my first introduction to a Northern Soul night, also keep showing while watching such amazing people enjoying such amazing music and dancing, seriously haven't stopped smiling since. Hope you find him. Keep up the vids, thoroughly enjoy!
I love the music and the dancing is phenominal....No age barrier....
The guy in the black and white changed the orbit of the earth with those spins. #impressivebalance
Thats Simon form Stoke

Haha I'm a similar age and I believe I would have hit the deck on the 3rd revolution. 😄
Having the time of his life! MDMA is a helluva drug ;)
Oh man the memories when we used to live for Saturday night at Wigan casino and nothing else in the world mattered except listening to northern soul 😎
WOW!! This guy really knows "The meaning of life"
I remember one night, met a girl, took the L plates off my lambretta to take her home, great fun.
Music is something every one can hear but only the sensitive can feel :)
Stripey top guy is great!
The power of music... Best drug in the world
Absolutely loved this guys energy 👏 he is so enjoying the music ❤💃
For me, I always enjoy and have positive and happy emotions when I see people enjoy music. Beautiful video, I enjoy that and thanks for the video.
I saw him dancing in center stage and as soon as I saw him I started smiling. He is brilliant he was dancing with his lady and he was so in to the music singing to her and she was smiling... He radiates a smile...
I wonder how old he is now - and where he is. And, if he's single!
Love to see genuine people enjoy themselves just a guess but this lovely man works hard all week 👍👍
excellent love to see people enjoying themselves....
I'm not a northerner but I love Northern soul it takes you to another place I love it 👍😉
well, "being a northerner" in the UK is pretty irrelevant as all the music is from America.
wonderful to see someone submerged in music. A joy to see!
Watched northern soul dancing and music tonight. Just reminiscing. Saw this guy dancing and having the best time ever. Fair play buddy who ever you are. Keep dancing your good
look like he has some wonderfull memories of his younger days
Wish he was my neighbour what a cheerful happy man who rightly loves his northern soul✌️

Love his total identification with the music.
I was feeling quite down today and this video really helped to lift my spirits, the effortless dancing and joy were wonderful to see thank you.

Afro caribbean background , born in london it's good to see people full joy themselves regardless of color ,greed or race
So you are black ? Is this what you are trying to tell us ?
@@user-xc8pv4ip2f No he isn't saying that.
He's got the moves and you're all right he is in a world of joy and recollection of his youthful self
Mr happy go lucky killing it on the dance floor. It's REALY cool seeing ppl that have a deep passion that makes not just them feel good but others around them .
Fantastic Mr H.G.L ..👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽❤️
He is absolutely having a blast! Love it!
I always associate Northern Soul with Lincolnshire as I remember dancing to it at the Riverside Club, Stamford, Lincs ( and other discos nearby) in the early to mid 70's, even attended an All Nighter in Peterborough where we were locked IN the building! No coincidence that this video is from Skeggy, Lincs either! My (Southern bred) wife describes my NS dancing as a frog in a washing machine. Stupid cow!
Love it. Did my schooling in Ashonton-in-makerfield. Lived through this era. Never went to to casino but damn, I wish I had. Use to go Wigan every weekend. Awesome
The man's lovin it, fair play to him and keep the faith
Great stuff! The constant smile says it all 👍🖤
Just makes me Happy watching this Fella dance.So thats got to be a good thing.
the world needs this to heal itself
Please let me keep dancing til I can't move, just like these guys are. Great clip.
As much as the guy is a "happy dancer" -I'd like to say - They are all "Happy Dancers". Northern Soul seems to have this effect on everyone who gets up and shuffles on the floor..!
Grown men. So much joy. I gotta get outta the States and 2021.
Joy is what it is all about Belle the joy that comes from within that this music brings out xx
@@northernsoultv868 Tell it.Thank you.
Excellent, thanks for posting some happy vibes. Hes the next prime minister for me.....
HEY ! UP.
Well done !
Pure enjoyment!
Just goes to show that Northern Soul will live forever with people like this around !
Wow! He's are in his moment on that dance floor! So sweet! What a sweetheart!

Not a grandad yet , but 52 and still will happily dance allnight .KTF.
Came for the Bingo. Stayed for the tunes. KTF
I love it!!
I love all sorts of music but I will be honest never heard of Northern Soul ...... but it’s like the 60’s meets the 80’s with the dance moves of Ska (beat/madness for the joy). His moves and his friends are awesome 😎❤️❤️
And SOUL ,might add some Funk,lol
He is in a joyful world of his own. Love this video
Defy anyone not to move to tunes like that!!. Great to see everyone having so much fun, can't wait for this lurgy to be done and dusted so nights like that one can happen again. Till then keep safe ❤✌ and ktf. 👍
Absolute class no more to say

The power of music
Brilliant. Keep The Faith ✊🏿
I am Irish never for get people I knew in England I that love Northern sole music brilliant good Dance music
I love watching them dancing
You carnt watch that and not be smiling great stuff
What other music, is so obsessive, makes you feel so happy, and gets Into your heart blood and soul, as we see this guy. Makes me happy to watch these Soul Boys and girls enjoying themselves. I can't think of another kind of music that doesn't discriminate, no matter who you are, bringing people together. Once stung, happily there is no cure. Thanx for sharing.
Brilliant this ❤
✊🏾🇮🇪❤❤ ya i no that feeling🕺💃💋
This his great my time no trouble every one enjoying. Wish I could do it now lol x
Hi there ..a great song don't you think.?? Am Mark by the way..
What's your name?
Love The music and dancing. Wasn’t allowed to go to the all nighters back in the day, very strict parents. Used to see other folk going off and felt like Cinderella.
Me too exactly x
Cool gent....that Northern soul folk ....cool folk
Dude in the black with white stripes is hilarious. Reminds me of school disco's
Bloody fantastic....from a Blackpool Mecca regular in 72-74
Just found NSTV today, love that it’s all ages and I wouldn’t feel out of place dancing my head off ✊✊✊
Fantastic. They are all obviously high on life . Wish I could dance like that.
He's having a lovely time! Bless!
Exactly how dance should make you feel, excellent my friend KTF
Love the unknown dancer!!

This is a blast from the past. I used to go 1970s. As well as Mr Ms at the back of the casino..wow. what mad days them was.
Your right, this guy loves his music. It's there written all over his face.
Love love love this. I go to this exact same place. When the tunes hit. Keep on keeping on soul brother 👊🏻

Dad dancing at its best, just think how good they must have been back in early 1970`s!
Good to see so many blokes on the dance floor!
