Steppin' Up In Class

James has been going through some of the first soul 45s he bought back in the early days of collecting, and reacquainting himself with that part of his collection.

There are some old favorites and good memories in this show, all 1960s and early 70s soul, Northern soul, rhythm & blues, and Mod dancers.
