A bit more history: Gloria Jones' version of Tainted Love was big on the Northern Soul underground dance scene in the industrial cities in the north of England in the late 60s/early 70s. Marc Almond knew it from there. Northern Soul DJs sought out overlooked gems and gave new life to a particular style of older songs from northern industrial cities in the US ❤️
