I'll be making a note of this as when I worked at a place that held Northern Soul nights and all-nighters I can honestly say I enjoyed 95% of the music and was often suprised at the staying power of the dancers who could it seemed be dancing for hours.
What club was it and was it sam's

It was under the old Abbeydale Picture Palace and was called the Kay Gee Bee. The all-nighters would run for 12 hours from 8 pm to 8 am on a saturday night. The stamina of some of the guys was amazing and the 'break dancing' look of it used to amaze me. I remember one lad dropping down backwards then kicking up with both feet, I remember it as I just happened to be walking past with a bowl of glasses that I'd collected. Basically it was a case of duck and wait for gravity to take effect on the glassware. The main DJ was a guy called Nev Wherry that I'm sure will be a very familiar name amongst Northern Soul fans. Another thing we noticed was the general friendliness of all the customers with no drunken brawls at all and a lot of the girls looked devastating.
