Eccentric northern soul.  US new compilation. Had a quick listen and it's sound. My guess there's an interesting story about its creation?

On the digital version available at Qobuz this is in 24bit quality and sounds wonderful. Their artist compilations of those on the above release are also excellent.  Being a now rare, legal download service you can also pick the songs of your choosing from the single artist compilations.  Ed Crook also has the wonderful Northern Soul dancer on the b-side to That's Alright available too.  It's really worth digging into Numero at Qobuz.

Some Cleveland related cuts on this album.

Mainly via Lou Ragland (& his contacts), Numero has released lots of Cleveland soul tracks, lots being unreleased or rare items ahead of Numero's involvement. 

I like the Boddies 7" box set in particular that they put out a few years ago. Isn't one of 45's now going for a wad of cash ?
