This book, which builds on a three-year immersive ethnographic
study, argues that what scene participants do and say within the
northern soul scene constitutes a claim to belong. For younger
members, making claims to belong is problematic in a scene where
dominant notions of authenticity held by insiders are rooted in a
particular past: the places, people, events, and soundscapes of
particular venues during the 1970s. In order to engage with this
past, young men and women participate in a range of discursive
practices. This book argues that these practices, and the ways they
intersect and deviate from dominant notions of authenticity,
represent shared and individual negotiations of the 'true soulie'.
In doing so, it reveals the rich experiences of the younger
generation of this multigenerational music scene, and the ways they
establish a claim to belong to a scene first formed before they
were born.
