Jacey Jackson - Staring Into Headlights

Подробнее о видео

Jacey was discovered by Jay Harvey, who co-wrote this Motownesque finger snapper with me for Northern Soul 2010. We did a whole trailer for the wonderful album, "Northern Soul 2010", which was released in September 2010, the latest in the ongoing series on Centre City Records. It included a bonus DVD with all 24 tracks of the CD plus 4 extra tracks. At a time when the UK was abuzz with the new feature film "Soul Boy", set against a backdrop of the 1970s Northern Soul Scene, this amazing new album brought the Northern Soul sound into the "here and now" with a fresh vibrancy - music which still holds the spirit and feel of the records heard at legendary clubs like the Wigan Casino and the Blackpool Mecca. It featured brand new songs from established names famous on the rare soul dancefloors of the UK, stalwart legends like Sidney Barnes, Clem Curtis, Jimmy Thomas, Moon Williams, Jimmy James, D.C. Larue, and Ronnie Walker, and also presented new talent including Fay Jones, Nat Augustin, Lyn Jerrard, and Tahira Jumah. Ever since Sidney Barnes' "Standing On Solid Ground" crossed over to dancefloors everywhere that embrace Northern Soul, these new albums stuck two fingers up to the retentive purists, and celebrated the joy and optimism of the best musical form ever created, free from bias and blinkered and sad individuals who won't even listen to a record if it isn't forty years old and sold over a hundred copies when first released. This brilliant trailer was narrated by the wonderful actor Steve O'Donnell, who starred in "Shakespeare In Love', "Far And Away", and "A Knight's Tale", as well as cult TV series "Bottom".
