Can anyone recommend a decent compilation with some Northern Soul stuff on it?

Thank You

soul survivors only has about 5-6 top tracks on... the title track being one of them...

as all round albums go, 'the best northern soul all nighter...ever' album is very very awesome quality.http://www.amazon.co.uk/Best-Northern-Soul-All-Nighter-Ever/dp/B000HKD8L6/sr=1-1/qid=1170364394/ref=sr_1_1/026-5542003-4150034?ie=UTF8&s=music

failing that, you could try the mastercuts album http://www.amazon.co.uk/Mastercuts-Northern-Soul-Various-Artists/dp/B000ANXMK2

or if you want all the songs from the adverts, get 'the ultimate northern soul album' but be warned, there are one or two re-recordings that are a little poor.

the wigan casino comps are good too...http://play.com/play247.asp?page=title&r=CDJ&title=136659&source=998&engine=froogle&keyword=Wigan+Casino+Soul+Club+(Various)+cd

but all in all there ae a lot of very good comps out there. but for every good comp there are 10 shite ones, so watch out.

do not under any circumstances buy albums like this...http://www.cduniverse.com/search/xx/music/pid/1409127/a/Very+Best+Of+Northern+Soul.htm they are all reworkings done very poorly and will only make you think northern soul is shit.

i'm gonna post my favourite northern track in downloads. you cant find it on comps (i dont think...) and it wasnt in the charts so i think it would constitute not being banned :icon_wink

Could you post a couple songs up please? Check whether it charted however receive the wrath of Webby.

for sure. i'll put a couple up...the good thing about northern soul is most of them never charted
