"On the Floor"
A Mounted and Framed Print
"On the Floor" is a print taken from an original painting by Northern Soul artist Neil Thompson. The print has over 50 dancers moving to the Northern Soul beat.
Neil has been part of the Northern Soul scene since the early 1970's and as a result he has been able to capture the moves that dancers make when dancing to Northern Soul music. This is a scene from an all nighter, the subtle shades of darkness and light are captured in the image. "On the Floor" has become one of the iconic images of Northern Soul. Prints have been sent around the world bringing treasured memories back to Northern Soul fans now scattered around the globe.
The producers of Coronation Street realised that "On the Floor" is a great part of Northern culture - the print hangs on the wall of the Rovers Return pub, next to another piece of Neil's artwork "Scooters at the Wheel" - please see image 6.
