6 Music's Northern Soul All-Nighter

This is your Craig Charles Funk & Soul Show all-nighter, taking you through to 8am, so no sleep until way past bedtime.

This is your Craig Charles Funk & Soul Show All-nighter, taking you through to 8am, so no sleep until way past bedtime.
To celebrate Wigan Casino’s 50th anniversary, Craig chats to one of the key DJ’s who used to spin vinyl at the legendary all-nighter, Richard Searling. Our house band is The Signatures, who have worked with almost all the major northern soul artists and they’ll be playing a selection of Wigan foot stompers. Northern soul royalty, The Flirtations and Lorraine Silver share their memories of the northern movement in the 60's & 70's.
And Craig’s on the search for the World’s most iconic and valuable Motown record, the original copy of Frank Wilson – Do I Love You (Indeed I Do).
