Naturally [VINYL]

CD-Charts > Music > Northern Soul
by: Sharon Jones

Release Date January 21, 2008
This album was a hidden gem that i stumbled upon through a song on a movie soundtrack. Being a big fan of this kind of music, it's not often i hear something from the old soul era and not recognise it; i heard this and thought "wow", then to my surprise i found out that it was from a current band and not old at all!!! Understandably I was even more delighted as it can only mean i'll get to enjoy more and more or their music over time. I recommend this album as i have a full-proof way to tell if an album is good: if within two plays i wake up every morning singing it's songs and i have to listen to it first thing, for a week, it's good. I have and therefore... i figure, it is. I do skip one of the songs on occasion, but the rest are great, particularly ... Read More:

You Didn't Say a Word

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

Release Date October 23, 2000
Don't take too much notice of the 5 star reviews. They both only review Ian Levine productions and always give him 5 stars. My 1 star is for track 9 an unusual but excellent track called cafe reggios.

The Motown Box

CD-Charts > Music > Northern Soul
by: Various

Release Date October 03, 2005
I have despaired for years at the proliferation of mono Motown CD re-issues when these days even the humblest CD/radio player has two built-in speakers and a stereo jack. Therefore I am delighted to see that this 72-track collection is one hundred per cent stereo. Furthermore, thirty of the tracks are brand new stereo mixes, a labour of love for Tom Moulton, who has really brought out the best in these songs and the Funk Brothers' unparalleled playing while retaining the feel of the mono originals. I especially relished those in previously unheard full-length mixes. Several of the previously released titles are still relatively hard to find, though of course this still leaves the set more attractive to newcomers to Motown, as long-term fans are likely ...

The Golden Torch Story

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

Release Date April 25, 1995
A truly classic compilation of Northern Soul from one of the fabled temples of the genre; this album starts off with absolute dynamite tracks like J.J. Barnes' classic "Our Love Is In The Pocket" and continues throughout, leaving you gasping for more. It even contains Eddie Parker's superb "Love You Baby", a masterpiece of Northern Soul and the only appearance of this track on a British CD. If you like your soul music fast and furious, you will like it. If you collect soul music at ALL this is an essential purchase. Overlook it at your peril.
