NORTHERN SOUL
VA - After Hours the Collection, Northern Soul Masters [2011] (3 x CD's)
A 3 x CD collection that contains the very best Northern Soul masters from the vaults of Atlantic, Atco, Loma, Reprise and Warner Bros Records from 1965-74. This ultimate 'best of' spans the legendary After Hours series, picking the best, most funky, soulful and rare tracks to give the listener a truly authentic Northern Soul experience. Warner.
Musically - it's an embarrassment of riches - huge hauls of ultra-rare and desirable Soul 45's on legendary labels like Atlantic, Atco, Carla, Fame, Loma, Reprise, Stax and Warner Brothers. Most of the tracks are aimed squarely at the feet - upbeat dance-floor fillers that slaughtered the crowds at the 'Wigan Casino' in the early Seventies. This is joyful stuff - finger-clickers .

Between your compilation BB and this (another great one for people's collection), it's no wonder I can never make a Top 10, or 20, or 30 ................ lol
ReplyDeleteSometimes, even if you don't know the song it still makes you feel good. That is the most important to me. A top 10 , how can this be achieved in this genre is almost impossible.
DeleteThank you for your kind words.
Cheers.
