I’m gonna be quite detailed here,im interested in seeing a list of northern soul uk only 45s? Predominantly 60’s and some 70’s.

a list of 45s that are uk only,no foreign release or USA,no album tracks,and an original song for that particular artist! I imagine it will be a short list and of blued eyed soul origin!

RAY MERRELL TEARS OF JOY JAYBOY

MICKEY MOONSHINE NAME IT YOU GOT IT DECCA …these two are perfect examples of what I mean.

I'm no UK label or foreign release expert so some of these may not fit your category. 

I Wanna Know - John E Paul - Decca

When I'm Gonna Find Her - Mark Lloyd Parlophone.

The Beautiful Night - Jimmy Thomas - Parlophone.

Don't Pity Me - Sue Lynn - RCA

Lost Summer Love - Lorraine Silver - Pye.

Love is Wonderful -Paula Parfit - Beacon.

One Minute Every Hour - John Miles - Orange.

I Feel So Bad - Jackie Edwards - Island.

Bok To Back - Fathers Angels - MGM

Just some of the top of my head, hope some are some use to you. Some probably did come out somewhere other than UK!

Feel So Bad Jackie Edwards came out on a French EP on Vogue even though it's an alternate take with extra female choruses. So after consideration on such critical matter the UK Island is indeed a sole UK release. And this French EP a contender for a future thread on here for such sole French Northern Soul 45 listing...

Excellent thread to start, however it may have been best to limit the suggestions to American based artists, as I can see this decending into numerous biddu type productions based on carribean and islands acts that lived over here, of which there are several hundred some mentioned already, not saying their all crap but it could go on forever. Car;l Douglas mentioned above also had a different flip in the Uk with his Buddah release, in the States it was 'Marble and iron' in the uk it was 'Do you need my love to get better', off to play the flip 'Lean on me' a soulfull piece if ever there was one. Thanks for the nudge on Carl.

The topic is not about what Northern Soul is!!  The post topic is this!!

"I'm gonna be quite detailed here, I'm interested in seeing a list of northern soul uk only 45s? Predominantly 60’s and some 70’s.

a list of 45s that are uk only, no foreign release or USA,no album tracks,and an original song for that particular artist!"

Was only replying to 'Still Diggin' wanting the thread not to go all over the place implying that with only American artists or recordings (although not specified) getting only a UK release this would help to concentrate on such collection of UK 7" items staying focus on Northern Soul and not going into Carribean (UK) acts or whatever...

But then not being able to mention Jackie Edwards 'I feel so bad' for example then. Although I am sure that many would disagree to revoke the record from this tread. And although no matter how this soul less record IMO is from a Jamaican singer recorded in the UK I can't deny it is a high prized UK Northern Soul classic record none the less.

So if Northern Soul was Black American Soul music based or proclaiming to be it was also about made with a lot of other things. Still is. Leaving many outside records dealers in a daze as to what Northern Soul was / is as those UK wants lists sent everywhere are clearly not black soul music only orientated. There I was only teasing 'Still Diggin'.

Anyway the OP didn't mention the origin of the artists or of the recording sessions even. Focusing only on "Northern Soul" (that could include a lot of things, right ?) UK 7" records without no other form of original physical existence. With that in mind I believe it leaves enough room to gather enough valid entries while remaining strict on the criteria.

More Northern, rather than Northern Soul . . .

Jon Ford - You Got Me Where You Want Me - Philips
Dennis D'ell - Better Use Your Head - CBS


Some Motown UK only things.

Martha Reeves - No One There

Is this before or after the 45 do you know?

The UK single is 1966. 

The USA L.P. is 1967. 

Looks like the UK single was the first issue of this great record!  It's a pity there is no original USA 45 single.
