Favourite Northern soul records?

[Northernsouloldies]

The genre of Northern soul records and dancing has been with me for 40yr plus. I'm always keen to hear stuff I've not heard before. Some of my faves.
Betty lavette.. Check on what my condition my condition is in.
The vibrations.. Cause your mines.
The velvellettes.. These things will keep me loving you.
Martha and the vandellas.. One way out.

My favourite is Frank Wilson, Do I Love You!

Hooked on young Stuff by Nino Tempo

I knew the guy in the 90s Kenny Burrell that bought it for £15,000... Eek. He later sold it on for £25,000.

@Goldwakeme Mine too.

The Snake by Al Wilson. Good dating advice as well as catchy.

Carlena.. The just brother's
Keep on keeping on.. N f porter
Candle (in the window) Doni burdick
I have faith in you.. Edwin Starr.

Is Red Light Spells Danger by Billy Ocean one?!

Move on up. Curtis Mayfield.

Long after tonight is all over...Jimmy Radcliffe
Picture me gone...Madeline Bell
What..Judy Street
Time will pass you by...Tobi Legend
Landslide..Tony Clarke
oh so so many more to choose!
KTF OP!

25 miles from home Edwin Starr is one of my faves.

Stop what your doing..The playthings too!!

Fraid not.

Nothing but a heartache by the flirtations.

Also love the northern soul version of Frankie Valli - The Night. Seems like a completely different song to their original album version.

My DH got me into northern soul, it never fails to perk me up!

My DH is a Northern Soul fan, he used to go to Wigan casino back in the day. As a surprise I bought tickets to see The Signatures, a Northern Soul tribute band, last summer. Their guest singer was Lorraine Silver. They make a fantastic sound and well worth seeing if you’re a fan.
My DS19 grew up listening to NS in the car on journeys and has a number of tracks on his playlist.
My all time favourite is
Long After Tonight is All Over - Jimmy Radcliffe
I bought DH an Amazon Echo so he could listen to all his favourites and more.

Open the Door to Your Heart by Daryl Banks

I have hundreds of northern soul 7 inches that belonged to my dad. I don’t know most of them. There’s no Do I Love You by Frank Wilson though, unfortunately.

Ooh love The Night
There's a ghost in my house.

Baby Boy - Fred Hughes
Open the Door to Your Heart - Darrell Banks
Nothing But a Heartache - The Flirtations
Heaven Must Have Sent You - The Elgins

Red Light Spells Danger is a stone cold classic!

The Night has the best base line ever!

Wigans Chosen Few- Footsie

Gone with the wind..dont know who sung it a lady it was but its epic.

I’m Irish and came across Smoove & turrell about two years ago and love them - beggerman my fave. Does that count?

I don’t know much about northern soul but is Frank Wilson not Motown? Or can someone be both?

One of my dad‘s favorites was Skiing in the Snow by The Invitations.

Doris Troy: I’ll Do Anything

Rita and the tiaras. 😁

Lost Summer Love by Lorraine Silver
Out on the Floor by Dobie Gray

Might have to have a little kitchen disco later...
