Guest Dave Ward Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Out on the Streets Again (abc) is my fave, but was there ever an 'Out on the Streets (abc), that preceded it ? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Geeselad Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 I really love the 'what's happening stateside' budget album they put out in the 8ts, played it to death, loads of great cuts, garnet mimms, isleys, marv jonhson. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Rubber Soul Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 When it comes to a various artists compilation CD, "SO SOULFUL 70s" (CDKEND 175), released 1999, is a really strong contender! Amazing Atlantic 70s dancers, oozing with soul... As for proper Northern, "NORTHERN MONSTERS" (CDKEND 272) from 2007 is just brilliant... Kent delivers, as usual!!

Mal C Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Sorry I cant just pick one, Soul Class of 66, Up Town Down South, So Soulful 70s, Soulful Kinda Music / For Collectors Only, The Northern Soul Of L.A. Vol 2, simply because it had Troy Dodds and June Jackson on it... and the daddy of em all for me, Modern Soul Connoisseurs that one Richard Serling put together, cost a about a fiver when it came out, and what a track listing given the normal pit falls of licensing songs from various sources... in fact he mentioned on his show recently that this comp just happened, everything he asked for became available and out it came, sheers quality comp...

Guest in town Mikey Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 (edited) Capitol Soul Casino is my fave LP. Floorshakers is my fave Kent LP. And Peter is right. it is a moody one, but that Up All Night is a belter. Another moody but goody was the Kool Kat thing with Stuart Ames, etc on.

Supercorsa Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Numerous favourite Kent LPs, Floorshakers, Footstompers & Soul Class 66 amongst others, spring to mind. As for for cd compilation, it has to be Sought After Soul 4CD compiled by Dave Flynn, has to be close to the top of the list! 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Forgot that one, remember an old boss having it on his desk one day, totally out of the blue, when I mentioned it, he said he had been reading my CV, and my interests section, and thought he would check it out!

Soul16 Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 The best compilation ever is probably on Kent, but it is impossible for me to pick out just one. Otherwise, for sentimental reasons, I would have to pick Jumping at the Go Go - hearing that LP for the first time was a defining moment for me. I have the orange label version, but I believe that it was also issued with a black label too. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
