Suggested playlist for Manchester Music Tour at 6pm, 15 January 2021
The songs are not in chronological order because the Zoom tour follows my actual walking tour route. And yes, I know there are loads of bands and performers missing but I can’t cover everyone.
I will mention the performers in the list but not play their songs through Zoom as Zoom does not deliver good sound quality for music.
You can play them of course, while I'm conducting the tour, although you’ll have to have the dexterity of a DJ mixing snippets of songs because I’ll be working through the Manchester Music story at my usual pace.
It’s going to be great fun.

Dobie Gray - Out on the floor (Not a Manchester sound but representive of Northern Soul)

Magazine - Songs from under the floorboards
