Edwin Starr - 25 Miles 1969 video

Edwin Starr performing his smash hit, "25 Miles" and doing it! I heard of a thing called "Northern Soul" from the U.K. but nooooooo.... This is the Sound of Detroit/Windsor and Toledo in the late 60's and early 70's brought to the region by powerhouse "The Big 8" CKLW! Those that were around then know exactly what I am talking about. Give a listen and enjoy!
