In Perfect Harmony: Sweet Soul Groups 1968-1977

CD-Charts > Music > Northern Soul
by: Various Artists

Release Date July 07, 2003
An album from Kent delving into the back catologue again to deliver good songs with a vocal edge hence the title In Harmony, containing 24 tracks with unreleased tracks and little known artists at least by this guy.

The artists I have heard of include Act One, Masqueraders, Jackson Five and the Floaters.

The CD gets better each time I listen to it, as at first I was'nt so keen, but I put it back on in the car after a couple of weeks and its a grower which usually means it will last longer in favour. As with all Kent releases good sound quality.

Ian Levine Presents Northern Soul Memories Vol.2

CD-Charts > Music > Northern Soul
by: Various Artists

Release Date December 13, 1999
If Wigan Casino was one the best soul Clubs ,Then Blackpool Mecca was certainly THE most controversial.This was largely due to one man IAN LEVINE, love or hate him Mr Levine descoverd a hell of alot of new sounds . I f you were like me in 1974 I loved northern soul and every thing that was played at Wigan and if you FOR Wigan then you were AGAINST the Mecca because it played a different style of northern I was intolerant of all other types of music, I am now forty something and am a lot more tolerant. what am saying is this is GOOD SOUL music and worthy of any soul collection give it a go. Well recorded as are all Goldmine CDs.

Ian Levine Presents Northern Soul Memories Vol.1

CD-Charts > Music > Northern Soul
by: Various Artists

Release Date March 15, 1999
If you were to check out my reviews of Ian Levines products you would see that I usually give them one star and think thats over generous. So what's happened here then ? Am I under the influence of drink or drugs ?
No.
Quite simply this disc contains the best songs ever recorded by Mr Levine. For me they are:

His original batch of Northern Soul tailor mades:
Reaching For The Best - Exciters
Your Magic Put A Spell On Me - Johnson, L.J.
Doomsday and Weak Spot - Thomas, Evelyn
Stranded In The Wilderness - Jones, Doris

They were all hits in the UK pop charts.

Then three even better tracks

24 Hours A Day - Pennington, Barbara
I'm In Wonderland ... Read More:

The Original Northern-Soul Selection

CD-Charts > Music > Northern Soul
by: Various Artists

Release Date October 24, 2005
The difficulty with any Northern Soul compilation is the sheer variety of tracks which could be included, especially as Northern was a genre that covered not only the basic "four on the floor" Motown style, but also more modern stuff which had similar appeal for dancers.

This does a good job of sampling that variety, so you get a classic like "Sweetest Feeling", side by side with Gene Chandlers funky "There Was a Time", and lower tempo tracks like "Backfield in Motion" with stompers like "Where It's At". For me, it's hard to beat "At The Top Of The Stairs" and "Love Makes a Woman", real Soul you can dance to. As with most compilations there are tracks you won't really like - that's Purple Haze" then - but there's lots to like ... Read More:
