Richard Searling was one of the resident DJs at the legendary Wigan Casino all-nighters from 1974 to 1981 and still works on the Northern Soul scene. "It's an exciting opportunity because I know how big Northern Soul and soul music in general听is in the Stoke-on-Trent and Cheshire areas.听I think its a great title and a great time - Saturday nights 6-8...It'll cover everything from Atlantic, Stax and Motown to rarer Northern Soul听classics...and the non-stop oldies to bring back memories听from Wigan Casino, The Torch and The Twisted Wheel." 听
