Stevie, if I ever have any slight frustration with the Northern / rare soul scene, it's that too many often overlook the great works of the so called commercial or charting soul artists like Curtis Mayfield , Stevie Wonder , Lamont Dozier, Al Green etc etc which all stand the test of time and deserve repeated plays even 30 or 40 years later, and every listen brings something new each time ...
