Mark S Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 (edited) I think if there was no Northern soul I would have to listen to ................https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=02ViMh47F1E A northern soul Edited April 23, 2014 by Mark S Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Tezza Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 Atlantic/Stax for obvious reasons. Jackies Wilson and the Brunswick group of stuff, Sam Cooke, etc etc. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Mellorful Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 (edited) No one mentioned Gospel. There are some toe tapping tunes in gospel that make me want to dance; check out Bessie Griffin If we take much of the music we all love back to its roots we probably end up with Gospel and Blues KTF Edited April 23, 2014 by mellorful Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Labeat Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 I'd say the nearest alternative would be cross-over/70's Soul Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
night nurse Posted April 23, 2014 Author Share Posted April 23, 2014 as some one who is in to all sorts of music and goes to see band regularly, and also goes to reading festival most years ,it would be hard to pick one sort of music but the smiths would be top of my list Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Lucky One Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 Musically I have no idea, one thing I am certain of is that my life would have been a lot poorer without this music, and everthing that goes with it. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Jordirip Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 OK HERE WE GO IF FOR SOME REASON MOTOWN AND NORTHERN SOUL DIDNT EXCIST WHAT MUSIC WOULD YOU LISERN TO AND WHY . I WILL START Tecno is probly the genre i would lisern to it got a fast beat and i have herd some good stuff come out it over the years even got a favourt peice its Adagio for strings by samual barber there i done but never fear soul will live for ever All the other soul, funk, jazz and reggae that I already listen to. Why?....because northern and Motown (i presume you mean 60's Motown) is not the be all and end all. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
