TRACK PLAYING IS 'JACK MONTGOMERY - DEARLY BELOVED'
Welcome to the third volume in our Wigan Casino mini-series exploring the diverse playlist of the world’s #1 Northern Soul venue. 23rd September 2018 marks the 45th anniversary of the super club and we have selected 18 tracks that we hope capture the unique atmosphere of the huge ballroom and the mesmerizing dance moves that held us spellbound all those years ago. 

Wigan Casino finally closed its doors in December 1981 after eight long years of weekly all-nighters, during which time it came to define Northern Soul. The term had, of course, been coined years earlier, but it was the Casino Soul Club that established the style of music and the scene to the wider public. The Casino transformed the Northern Soul scene into a mass youth movement with its own soundtrack, uniform, cultural icons and a 100,000 strong membership.
