The Northern Experience: Russ Winstanley
Nemone celebrates the Northern Dance Experience with Wigan Casino's Russ Winstanley providing a Northern soul playlist.
All through April, 大象传媒 Radio 6 Music Celebrates: Dance Culture and Nemone is breaking dance culture down into your experiences of the genre. This weekend it's the Northern Dance Experience.
Clubland settled very comfortably in the north of the UK. Wigan Casino was the home of northern soul, the Hacienda in Manchester became the home of the acid house experience, and then the superclubs arrived - Cream in Liverpool, Renaissance in Nottingham and Gatecrasher in Sheffield.
As we approach the 30th anniversary of the Hacienda, Nemone takes listeners back to the time before dance was massive, playing some of the music that united people in the clubs of the north. Russ Winstanley was one of the musical pioneers behind the Wigan Casino which, in 1978, was voted the world's best disco by Billboard magazine (while Russell himself was voted the No. 1 soul DJ!). The man behind the weekly Allnighters - who also booked top acts such as Jackie Wilson, Martha Reeves, Edwin Starr - shares his favourite tracks with you in Most Played.
Nemone also shares your experiences of being there and may even sneak in a few of her own tales of dancing and djing in Manchester.
