There's some nice tunes there Jim. I'll have to have a think. No modern category?

Modern???

Snap!

Nice tunes Jim

How is 'rare soul' different to 'Northern' or the other categories?

i would consider rare soul is not known to the average soul fan richard, my 2 modern faves would be . flowers...for real and seville...show me the way, i also left out funk and r&b which i mainly dislike, but feel free to add them in any case.

jim as no one has posted any here goes my ones (but will change by the time i type them out as keep thinking can't leave that out!)

modern-don't send nobody else millie jackson_i don't need no fortune teller-ad libs

mainstream-ain't to proud to beg-temptations_what's going on-marvin gaye (whole album is my number 1)

motown- you've got to earn it-the temps_what's happening brother-m gaye

funk peace,love not war- fat back band_unlock the funk -locksmith

r+b how much land does a man need-frank minion_bad man of missouri-jimmy moore

n-soul gone with the wind-rita +the tiaras_speed up betty moorer

rare-lover-delights_cheatin kind-don gardner

listening-don't let it go to your head- jean carn_keep on pushing the impressions.

Off the top of my head.
