[QUOTE="Barrie Jay, post: 815910, member: 1163"] Art The best ones are not necessarily the rarest. Often prices have little to do with the quality. Collecting obscure northern soul originals on vinyl will now cost a very tidy sum. I got lots of compilations from ebay for £1 upwards - don`t mind getting them even if its only for one track tbh at that price. Some are shite but many good ones - just make sure they are the original recordings and not some ropey reworks (usually done by Ian Levine). There are 100s I could recommend but throw `nothern soul` `wigan casino` `blackpool mecca` `twisted wheel` `va-vas` `catacoombes` or `the torch tunstall` into the search engine on Youtube and see what it picks up - then check all the uploads made by the same person and have a listen. I tend to like the more 4 to the floor stuff tbh when it comes to northern and, whilst I like the more `funky` sound championed by Ian Levine and Colin Curtis you cannot beat a good stomper IMHO. Not too keen on most of the downbeat or mid tempo `southern` side. Will dig out some good compilation recommendations for you when I have a little time. Here`s a couple of channels to get you started: [url=http://www.youtube.com/user/soulman7262]YouTube - soulman7262's Channel[/url] [url=http://www.youtube.com/user/keepingthefaith72]YouTube - keepingthefaith72's Channel[/url] [url=http://www.youtube.com/user/bricomaligno]YouTube - bricomaligno's Channel[/url] happy listening. A few of my own personal faves: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9WgdrSGKzU]YouTube - Lou Pride - I'm Com'un Home In The Morn'un[/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zG0GpoNXo3Q]YouTube - Joe Hicks - Dont it Make You Feel Funky[/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9e1r77USjSA]YouTube - Modern Redcaps,Never Too Young.wmv[/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lAprdjXgnM]YouTube - Northern Soul Monster..Danny Wagner[/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smpDMSQVwcc]YouTube - Jackie Lee - Do The Temptation Walk[/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQlN_M9Vtgo]YouTube - The Artistics - Hope We Have[/ame] [url=http://www.youtube.com/user/bricomaligno#p/u/23/mdVHrSWm9Ww]YouTube - bricomaligno's Channel[/url] I could be here all night !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
