Product Description
CD Description
This collection of 20 Original Northern Soul classics provides the listener with an overview of black American soul music which swept across England in the late 1960s. Emerging from the British mod scene in northern England, the style focuses on the heavy beat and fast tempo of the Tamla Motown sound of the time.
This albums brings you the orignal Motown legends of Diana Ross & The Supremes and The Impressions to lesser-known artists made famous by the genre including Gloria Jones and Frank Wilson.
Product Description
Brillliant set of original Northern Soul Anthems for a killer price; 'Tainted Love' 'Love's Gone Bad' 'There's A Ghost in My House' & more

This was a gift for my boyfriend who considers himself a Northern Soul guru. He thought the tracks were many of the best, listened to it on his drive home and so he's happy and at such a reasonable price-that's a bargain!

I saw this on Amazon's recomendations based on my purchase history, along with many other Northern Soul compilations. I could of bought the lot, but I went for this one to add to my collection based on the value it gave for my hard earned dosh! WHAT A RESULT! Apart from the obvious classics such as Tainted Love, The Night, Do I Love You and Landslide, the real gem in this compilation is the spectacular sounding Nothing But A Heartache by The Flirtations, this is worth buying just for this track alone. This gets a five from me as it is fantastic value for money. It's not only cheap, but there are load of great tracks.

First foray into Northern Soul.
My impression is that it is like raw Motown. Took a couple of run throughs until I started to appreciate style. Then played it non stop until I felt like a change. I am old enough to remember the buzz of NS but not to have been part of it.
I have an eclectic music collection and am happy to have this in there.
Only niggle is that the music info on the actual disc files bears no relation to the tracks.

A Tragic Lack Of Imagination
My sister bought this for me as a birthday present, and I suspect that she fits the target market perfectly: well-intentioned but ill-informed present-buyers. Read more
