The origins of Soul music in Scotland mirror the rise in popularity of Black music across the UK in the mid 20th century. It acted as a unifying force in a small nation deeply divided at the time by gangs, politics and religion. Scottish Soul fans, DJs and record dealers have made an invaluable contribution to the Soul music scene in Britain, adding to the enjoyment of everyone who ever attended a Soul night, hunted down rare records or bought a Soul compilation CD. In this first ever book detailing Scotland's Soul story explore the DJs, bands and shady characters involved in the fizzing Scottish R&B scene of the early 60s.
