[Guest Shufflin]

Hi all, are there any Liberty soul music cd/vinyl 'various artist' compilations?

If you are after 60's original LP's think most of them would have been on Minit.

Have a look at Sold on Soul Lp 

Although mostly UA it does have a few artists who’s songs were done on Liberty also

Stateside records did a few single artist and compilations with Liberty tracks I think.

The Goldmine CD -Big City Soul- Volume 1, GSCD 42, is all Liberty/Minit/ UA tracks and still seems to be available for a reasonable price.

Ady must of been listening!  Kent is reissuing 'On The Soul Side' on CD with the original cover and twelve extra tracks.  I saw it on Amazon rather than their own site as yet.  It's made my weekend.   Let's hope for many more like this.  Of course it's a treasure trove of Minit, Liberty and United Artists classic Northern Soul sides.

cheers for that, don't suppose you know the full track listing?

Not yet, it's not at Amazon who usually are quick off the mark - nor at Acerecords.co.uk

I've never heard of any purely Liberty Soul CD compilation.  Any Liberty-related CD would likely have a lot more cuts from Imperial, and Minit (and, possibly United Artists, and its VEEP and DCP subsidiaries.  Not all that much Soul music appeared on the actual Liberty label.
