This collection of northern soul spans 3 record companies, 'Dial', 'Hickory' and 'Challenge'. It comes with a 12 page booklet which does a good job, it's well designed and looks quite good. The music shines bright, this compilation hardly ever puts a foot wrong, nearly all tracks sound great and are of the highest musical order. Any comp. that contains Joe Tex, Jerry Fuller, Paul Kelly and Barbara Mills is always gonna be good. A few of my favourites apart from those mentioned above are '24hr service' by Charlie Romans, 'I'll forgive and forget' by Ron Holden along with 'I'll hold you' by Frankie and Johnny. One of the best comp's I've bought this year, and i've bought far too many already. Go and buy it.
