ha ha well spotted many thanks apologies -
Dee Dee Sharp - Deep Dark Secret Cameo c-335... Not the cleanest of copies hence price. It has some label wear but free of writing. Vinyl has some visible light scratches and a couple of bubble marks, none really affect play. You can hear some light crackle at the very start and then the odd pop throughout other than that it plays strong. - £70.00 Jackie Follett - I Am What I Am/ Don't Care To - Verve Forecast Demo M- Nice Near Mint copy - £60.00 The Fenways - The Fight - Blue Cat Ex. great value record needs reactivating DJ's - £20.00 Betty La Vette - I'm Holding On - Big Wheel

Northern Soul records that should have been hits?
Jem Britttin replied to Jem Britttin's topic in All About the SOUL
Have to politely disagree with a lot of that, music is music! Beats, rhythms, chord structures etc. haven't really changed much in 60 years! The way it is presented may have with the advent of electronica. Listen to any stuff recorded by current artists like Ed Sheeran (not that many people on here will going by some of the replies) and nothing much has changed at all...whether people think he is a 'ginger prick' or not is irrelevant he sells millions to people all over the world...I quite like some of his stuff -
Northern Soul records that should have been hits?
Jem Britttin replied to Jem Britttin's topic in All About the SOUL

However it went on to be covered by countless artists over the years and still is today even 'Billy Stewart' did a 'pepped up version' in the 60s, point being it is classed as an 'iconic' song now..Whether people like it or not is irrelevant..I am not asking for opinions on that. Let's take the example I opened with 'Linda Jones - I Just Can't Live My Life' Whe -
Not sure whether this has been done before or in this way? I know most of us view the records from a totally different perspective as they fall into our Northern Soul world. However most of the records that were cut by artists were an attempt to gain chart or commercial success, they certainly would never have envisaged them being classed in the future as a Northern Soul record. We often say about some records "can't understand why this never got anywhere" and whilst it is true some of that was down to poor promotion or not getting picked up on radio for airplay. It is also true that some were
