Ranked No. 7 in Northern Soul
The last of the Casino's three closing records. A warning about wasting your youth, played to people who had spent the night doing exactly that.
Picked by Dancing to Bad News
Played at six in the morning to close Wigan Casino, to a floor of people who had spent the entire night doing precisely what it warns against. The strings lift, the message is that the lift does not last, and nobody has ever stopped dancing to it.
