I'm not sure about Don Gardner, it's pretending to be dirty but it isn't really. It's a rich girl slumming it down the pub, but try and get her knickers off and you'll get nowhere... :thumbsup:

Also a few others on here are uptempo but not what i'd consider dirty gritty soul.

Great handle.....more raunchy R'n'B is something I lean towards & is always guranteed to get me on the floor.......soul in it's purest form, as it should be sounding like it's recorded in your aunties toliet with total passion, not like the total tripe being purported to be the 'new' northern soul on another thread...but that is another story.

Vernon Garrett - Shine It On

Otis Redding - Lovin' By The Pound

Lorretta Williams - Baby Cakes

In true Soul Source style 'Dirty Northern' has already split into two warring camps. Those that see it as a term for gritty down-home R&B style northern ('Dirty Northern' © Tony Smith) and those that have foccussed on the sexually explicit songs, which frankly I have always thought of as 'Horny Northern.'

Is there anyone out there who can really get this going with a "post-Stafford modern style horny northern" surely Russ, Steve G, Simon or Robin S can come up with the choooon?

For now - - What is 'Dirty Northern'? discuss?

None of these are dirty soul in my opinion. Uptempo doesn't equal dirty.

I still say the benchmark is Jimmy Robins, take it from there.

They're fast and they're raunchy (well Saxie Russell is), but we're talking down and dirty and gritty soul here. Curtis Mayfield and The Ohio Players :rolleyes: about as dirty as a nun in a chastity belt.

I prescribed Bobby Bland - Honey Child to correct your hearing.

:lol:

The B side of Move On Up? That would be the rest of Move On Up off the 'Curtis' album? That's jazz in my opinion... :D

Most of the things on this thread i wouldn't call R&B, even Jimmy Robins. To me it's all gritty early soul. If you were to say 60s was dirtier than 70s i'd probably agree. :lol:

60's Definetly dirtier than 70's except 'Move on up' pt.2 :D . See u gotta know your records? The b side to the original release (Swirly label) does continue the track but it ain't jazz? :lol: Thelonius Monk= Jazz, John Coltrane= Jazz! Curtis Mayfield= Dirty Soul :lol: yeeaaah!

Well, for a so-called "Dirty Northern" track (leaving R&B and 7ts aside) it does not only to have be gritty, I am sure most will agree that the lyrics also have to be at least say "tasty"...if not already explicit.

So with that in mind I`ll open my box and play you

Little Stanley Outasight Loving

Dewey Black Takin Love Where I Find It

Don Gardner Tighten Up Your Love Bone

Lee Shot Williams Love You Now Pay Later

Lee Rogers Sock Some Love Power

..box closed. Over to you :unsure:

People seem to have quite different ideas of what the term means here.. My interpretation of "Dirty Northern" would be stuff like:

Magnetics - Lady In Green (and 'Heart...' as well)

Arthur Willis - The Hurting Is Over

Headliners - Looking For A Love

Otis Brown - Southside Chicago

Caressors - I Can't Stay Away

Donna King - Take Me Home

The Agents - Trouble
