Timemarcheson Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Carla Thomas - Every Ounce of Strength Love the Emotions recommended by Seano. Frank
AlanB Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 My favourite is The Astors - Candy. Could listen to it every day and never get tired of it. I'm surprised more people haven't named Darrell Banks - I'm the One Who loves You. I would have guessed that that is the most popular Northern track on Stax.

Citizen P Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 (edited) Sam & Dave - I Thank You & Margie Joseph - Medicine Head Hey Grant-I absolutely love Sam & Daves stuff and I Thank You is probably me favourite, but I don't associate it with Northern as such, more of a Club Soul sound to me. Probably an age thing..... (where's me smilas gone?) Edited February 28, 2013 by Citizen P

Premium Stuff Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 I thank you is one if the best quality tracks on the label and a sound that transitioned me from Motown/Stax/Atlantic to proper Northern. Asked for it to be played in a 'mod' club near Melton Mowbray as a teenager and remember how it cleared the floor - just me dancing - but what a fabulous sound - and a p*ss poor response from the mods. Cheers Richard
