Although the words Northern Soul do not guarantee a record is in fact soulfull, it must be said that the majority are. Whats your top 3 that prove this point.

My top 3

Tomangoes - I really love you baby - Washpan.

Gwen Owens - Just say your wanted and needed - Velgo.

Dena Barnes - If you ever walk out of my life - Inferno.

With about 50 replies, some quality choices.

In the days before it was called Northern Soul, I assume then that only mid to uptempo soul was played.

Maybe the Northern Soul tag was a curse allowing too much variation to the core underground theme of danceable soul. In recent years I have noticed the RARESOUL being favoured to NORTHERN SOUL by many who insist it has to be a soul record in the first place.

Of the mentions so far the Rockmasters has lots to offer. The Panic is on is just pure class no matter what you categorise it as George Freeman is also top quality.

Some more for the pot - Jimmie Bo Horne 'I Just Can't Speak', George Smith 'I've Had It', Buddy Smith 'When You Lose the One you Love' and the Soul Communicators 'Please don't Go' :)

the three that are doing it for me at the moment
