Now
living in Manchester Guy Hennigan is recognised as the man who revived
Northern Soul from the doldrum that was the aftermath of Wigan Casino.

Utd - Guy's second love!

Along
with Keb Darge - now a highly paid (not that he'd want anyone to
know it! - sorry Keb) funk DJ, Guy brought 'sixties newies' to the
scene and remains a vociferous advocate of the quality and not the
quantity of soul music.
Record
collector, promoter and DJ he started his soul career at the tender
age of 11 listening to his sister's records and learning from his
friend across the street.
He
passionately believes in Northern Soul - the music and hates any
'unworthy' attempts to make it trendy.
Now
in semi-retirement, Mr Hennigan enjoys choosing his gigs and accumulating
a record collection that remains a mysterious legend in its own
sleeve time.
Debbie
Troops caught up with him and asked him how and if you should become
a Northern Soul record collector.
