Easter 22 Soul Special Mixcloud Pts 1 and 2

[Scotters]

 

Easing into this much needed long Bank Holiday Easter weekend with some favourite mostly mid-tempo soul sides...Something old, something new, something borrowed & something blue. Pt 2 in a couple days moves into more uptempo sides. Happy holidays!

Continuing on from the Good Friday mix a couple days ago, here's an hour of more uptempo favourites to end this Easter Bank Hol... Some of the truly rarer ones (King George, Sag War Fare, John Harris) I've settled for the quality re-issues for home & this mix, but anyone thinking of selling originals then pls PM me. Thanks for looking and listening
