Okay, here are 8 Northern soul cuts courtesy of myself, SoulHawk, and my benevolent roommate, Bradley Hales (of People's Records fame). Some of them are mp3s, others are rips. Hopefully there's at least one track here that won't inspire thoughts of dish-soap commercials.Let the hatting begin.Sam Fletcher Betty Lloyd Four Voices Melvin Davis Cody BlackFreddie Butler The Chandlers Fabulous Impacts

    Those selections are the biz fellas. No dish soap terds there, to be sure.




    Heres the Otis Jackson and the Comprimisers - Turn Out the Lights/ You Belong To Another Man (C&F)45 (both sides on one quick and easy to use brand new MP3 disc!!!)

    What label is that Sam Fletcher on? I think there is an LP at my local spot for cheap by a guy with the same name? On Vault maybe? Same dude, or am I off base?

    I'm really into the beat on the "Turn Out The Lights" side. Alot of the songs that have been catching my ears for the past year have that same beat/feel.

    thanks meaty. that o.j. is

    Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who contributed to this thread. Lots of great music being posted from a genre (or whatever you wanna call it) that doesn't get much shine here on the Strut.

    ...we now return you to your regularly scheduled mix of hiphop, racism, and hipster-bashing.

    some nice sounds you've posted there. great to hear some northern on the 'strut. Haven't heard 'Find A Quiet Place' in a long time, and 'I'm Catching On' sounds as good as ever.

    you can listen to a couple nice mp3s here. some super classic northern and a couple semi unknowns. this thread is way more positive than "what is northern soul" thread. seems like the whole thing is really really misunderstood by americans. I mean if you cant feel some uplifting soul jams (& who really cares if you put northern in front of it or not) then I feel sorry for you.

    I will never be over for me

    Weird, I've been on a big northern kick again. Here's one:

    The Montclairs - Hey You! Don't Fight It

    Don't have an mp3 I'm afraid but I'm into Heatbreaker by Jimmy Gilford, it's a bit tougher than some northern...
