I have posted this in freebasing as it not s northern soul tune.

BUT - look at the comments on the u tube post. AMAZING !

Really ACE to see how soul music is still making patterns after all this time

There are pages and pages of comments from everywhere all over the world enthusing about the Phyllis version of perfidia and what it means to them.

Check out the comments from the people who know the tune as part of their life history and the music fans who have just discovered the record.

When I read the conversations on soul source - with everyone concerned about the age of everyone and who is going to care about what everyone did and what are our families going to do with all our records.

Stop for a min

music will find a way out.

Yes the internet

I also imagine it will be also shared in ways we have not even imagined yet

Phyllis didn't make a lot of records and she was from Jamaica - not Detroit or Chicago

Yet 50 years later there is a serious conversation online today about how lovely her records were / are

So the quality of her output and not her fame at the time it seems will ensure her place in the future

And so it should

I love her voice - just really great Jamaican Soul

The fact that there is not really a Jamaican soul scene if you will, and the amount of people who are enthusiastic enough to post comments on u tube is really great to see.

But this is just one example - there are hundreds of thousands of people appreciating things and making comments.

My point is in the future when we are all long gone - there will be still be people discovering this great music via the internet.

The legacy and history of the northern soul scene will always be there for people to watch - the old documentaries, discovering and listening to old music.

Its already there online.

I guess I'm just happy it is there - and there are clearly millions of people still finding the music and appreciating it.
