Posted February 9, 20241 yr I would really love to know the identity of these two northern soul tracks. Sadly the sound is rather distorted but i do hope someone may be able to recognise them. The first is on this link at 22.05 The second is at 6.15
February 9, 20241 yr I thought the Second is Butch's Jean Carter - I Wanna Know cover up, so I assume this is Butch Djing...
February 9, 20241 yr Author Delighted to get the Sharon McCMann track identified - many thanks - I fear I may have slightly got the numbering wrong on the second track - it is the one that follows Jean Carter's 'I wanna know' - it has a chorus of 'your friends and my friends are trying to keep us apart (or something similar!)

February 11, 20241 yr Author Many thanks for the info - hopefully we'll get to know the real title one day- it's such a great track.

February 12, 20241 yr It was a Shifty discovery, it's an untitled acetate, but know as either ‘If I Ever Love Anyone It's You' or more commonly 'It's You'... was played at a really great time, stuff like Mayfield Singers was getting played, my favorite time on the soul scene in the late 9ts...

If and when it's true identity is discovered it will be by accident or Butch get a visit from the Spanish Inquisition and is subjected to 'the comfy chair' Edited February 13, 20241 yr by Simon T
