What are your top ten RnB records that have crossed over to be Northern Soul floor fillers?

I guess mine are:

I Can't Please You - Jimmy Robins

I Can't Get Enough - Johnny Sayles

Sweeter Than The Day Before - The Valentinos

What Good Am I - Mickey Champion

Sippin' Sorrow - Pearl Woods

My Baby Likes To Boogaloo - Don Gardner

If You Don't Come - Patience Valentine

The Champion - Willie Mitchell

It's Your Voodoo Working - Charles Sheffield

I'm A Big Man - Big Daddy Rogers

How much change would I get from £1000 for that little lot?

baz mate, you might as well aim it at remus cos I would 

Thanks Remus, you confirmed what I was trying to say mate

ps I am also glad to hear that Soultown Andy, Andy Dyson and the rest of the forerunners of the upfront soul brigade are adding a good RnB room to their future ventures. This will be provided by Backbeat, the forerunners of the rnb scene.

My pleas ure......pardner!

Here's an R&B track for you...

Tell me it's a shit-kicking, rock-a-billy, Vic Reeves sound-a-like and I'll point you in the direction of a good 'Ear Doctor'

good example joe.

i also think a lot of the soul heroes we worship would be disgusted to be called red neck cowboys.

It's alright, if that bluesy style is your bag. Nothing special. But it doesn't fall into the genre of early r n b that does mine and many other people's heads in.

And so the standard reply goes.....

If you don't like it it's R&B

If it floats your boat then it suddenly morphs 'Northern Soul'

What's this one then?

The above Geater track ain't a good example of r'n'b, it's a good examle of southern soul.

its this response that annoys a lot of rnb fans. You are glad to pick out the worse rnb stuff and chuck it back at people and ignore the good stuff. There is shit in all genres!

on a lighter note please dont take any of this personal

that ronnie forte is a fantastic dancer. this has everything for the best dancers on the scene to f***in go for it. It has tons of passion and urgency and so right for the northern dancefloor. give me that anyday above 70s floaters.

prefer the flip side to the Ronnie Forte track, but anyway it's Soul music, crash bang wollop Nortern, just how I like it!

I'm sitting here pissing myself at the thought of these sound clips getting more and more soulful.......keep 'em comeing

How come rnb gets a real slating on here but the barrel scraping modern being played gets away with it?

Ermmmm....probably cause it's got some soul in it and it ain't rock and roll or country as a lot of the crap masquerading as R&B is
