Northern soul didn’t exist in the 1960s, but the records that comprise it did. In this week’s Dancing Through The 20th Century, David McNamee untangles this paradox and hunts down James Brown deep cuts to find the first flickering of funk. We also visit Brazil and hear the Dadaist protest dance music of tropicalia.
