Soulsmith

Assume we're talking Lisa Satansfield track 8:3:1 Eight letters, Three Words, One Meaning, here Massive record on modern scene few years back So much better & more relevant than Donnie Elbert.....

Good news - we have our own SS bit of the chat forum for Soul of Jamaica. Bad news - apart from the odd Jackie Edwards & Derek Harriott track I haven't got a clue what its all about. How about a CD swap? Might kick start the Soul of Jamaica section (not that it really needs it) & educate people like myself. Appreciate many 'soulies' won't be able to fwd a Jamaican soul CD, so just have to send something a bit intereseting...... Anyone know how/interested in a CD swap? Col

Thanks for raking up this thread......I've had so much stick over it

Think he is DJing at Bisley on 1st December.......so make sure you load him up with flyers.

Should be 001 - 500 not 100 - 500 Just can't get the staff.

Anybody ever heard 191 @ Donnie Elbert - A Little Piece Of Leather played at an all-nighter? F**ked if I have. If it hasn't been played at an all nighter........shouldn't be on the list.

Following on from my last thread, somebody asked what were The Northern Soul Top 100- 500? Roughly its the list below, tho there may be a few typos. Interested to know peoples comments. I do appreciate that the list is another persons point of view of records that influenced the scene.

I'll never let the facts get in the way of a good debate.

"579 @ First Choice - This Is The House Where Love Died - Is this a wind up?" I don't know about that, but I can confirm its painful on the ears.

Thought as much Glad I never went

Fair play to KR for publishing it, gives me something to moan about & other people to discuss. A list is no fun IMO if its not contentious. I'd like to see a SS Top 500, as I do I give a s**t (sometimes ) Geoff, I'd love to see the NS bottom 100. Laura Green's Moonlight, Music And You was played every week-end late 70s at Woking Centre Halls. Phew what a shocker!

Just a couple of years back, a book was produced with a personal account of the Top 500 Northern Soul records. A mate passed on a CD with every tune on it plus the next 100 records on the list. Whilst not at all taking it seriously....I was 'shocked & surprised' not to mention 'angry & naffed off' by some of the inclusions . Not heard for 30 years & never want to hear again...... Bob Wilson - Suzy's Serenade Bob Brady & The Concords - Everybody's Going To A Love In Andre Brasseur - The Kid Pleasantly surprised to see included...... Bobby Womack - So Many Sides Of You Lew Kirton - Heaven In The Afternoon Charles Johnson - Never Had A Love So Good Shurely shome mishtake...... Trammps - Hold Back The Night Mandrill - Never Die Don't know where I was when these 3 got played (probably in the car park)...... The Fiestas - Think Smart The Gypsies - It's A Woman's Wold Debbie Dean - Why Am I Loving You How can you possibly have these 2 sitting next together.......? 589 @ The Petals - You Can't Close The Windows Of Your Heart 590 @ Bobby Williams - I've Only Got Myself To Blame I've nearly finished moaning......But shouldn't Jesse Johnson & Gwen Owens be Top 10 sounds? Here is the list. 500 @ Larry Santos - You Got Me Where You Want Me 501 @ Billy Arnell - Tough Girl 502 @ Bob Brady & The Concords - Everybody's Going To A Love 503 @ Marsha Gee - Baby I Need You 504 @ Jackie Wilson - The Sweetest Feeling 505 @ George Lemmons - Fascinating Girl 506 @ Tommy Ridgley - My Love Gets Stronger 507 @ George Pepp - The Feeling Is Real 508 @ Ollie Jackson - The Day My Heart Stood Still 509 @ Gwen Owens - Your Wanted (And Needed) 510 @ Linda Jones - My Heart Needs A Break 511 @ Bob Wilson - Suzy's Serenade 512 @ Channel 3 - The Sweetest Thing 513 @ Dee Edwards - All The Way Home 515 @ Four Larks - Grooving At The Go-Go 516 @ Donna Coleman - Your Love's Too Strong 517 @ Elbie Parker - Please Keep Away From Me 518 @ Joanie Summers - Don't Pity Me 519 @ Benny Spellman - Fortune Teller 520 @ The Ellusions - You Didn't Have To Leave 521 @ J.J.Barnes - Sweet Sherry 522 @ Steve Flannagan - I've Arrived 523 @ Marv Johnson - I Miss You Baby 524 @ John Leach - Put That Woman Down 525 @ Danny Monday - Baby Without You 526 @ Marvin Holmes - You Better Keep Her 527 @ Jimmy Ruffin - He Who Picks A Rose 528 @ The Brooks Brothers - Looking For A Woman 529 @ Lorraine Chandler - I Can't Hold On 530 @ Trammps - Hold Back The Night 531 @ The Fiestas - Think Smart 532 @ Jr Walker & The All Stars - I Ain't Going Nowhere 533 @ Edwin Starr - Back Street 534 @ Terry Callier - Ordinary Joe 535 @ Dalton Boys - I've Been Cheated 536 @ Johnny Honeycutt - I'm Coming Over 537 @ The Twans - I Can't See Him Again 538 @ The Trends - Thanks For A Little Lovin' 539 @ Bobby Womack - So Many Sides Of You 540 @ Bunny Sigler - Follow Your Heart 541 @ Jackie Wilson - I Don't Want To Lose You 542 @ Danny Woods - You Had Me Fooled 543 @ Martha Starr - Love Is The Only Solution 544 @ Belles - Don't Pretend 545 @ International GTO's - I Love My Baby 546 @ Jimmy Robins - I Just Can't Please You 547 @ Just Brothers - Carlena 548 @ The Elgins - Heaven Must Have Sent You 549 @ Williams & Watson - A Quitter Never Wins 550 @ Lew Kirton - Heaven In The Afternoon 551 @ Charles Johnson - Never Had A Love So Good 552 @ The Construction - Hey Little Way Out Girl 553 @ Jay D Martin - By Yourself 554 @ The Magnificents - My Heart Is Calling You 555 @ Lynn Vernado - Wash And Wear Love 556 @ Yvonne Vernee - Just Like You Did Me 557 @ Micky Moonshine - Name It, You Got It 558 @ The Gypsies - It's A Woman's Wold 559 @ Moses Dillard - I'll Pay The Price 560 @ Major Lance - Investigate 561 @ Florence Devore - Kiss Me Now Don't Kiss Me Later 562 @ Benzine - Village Of Tears 563 @ Norma Jenkins & The Dolls - The Airplane Song 564 @ Bud Harper - Wherever You Were 565 @ Little Eddie Taylor - I Had A Good Time 566 @ Magaret Mandolph - Something Beautiful 567 @ The Parliaments - Heart Trouble 568 @ Barbara Lynn - Take Your Love And Run 569 @ Vala Reegan - Firemen 570 @ Phil Terrell - Love Has Passed Me By 571 @ Andre Brasseur - The Kid 572 @ The Wonderettes - I Feel Strange 573 @ Damon Fox - Packing Up 574 @ Rita & The Tiaras - Gone With The Wind Is My Love 575 @ Mandrill - Never Die 576 @ The Formations - At The Top Of The Stairs 577 @ Donald Lee Richardson - You Got Me In The Palm Of You 578 @ Jean Carter - Like One 579 @ First Choice - This Is The House Where Love Died 580 @ The Whispers - Remember Me 581 @ Donna King - Take Me Home 582 @ Edward Hamilton & The Arabians - I'm Gonna Love You 583 @ Jesse Johnson - Left Out 584 @ Yvonne & The Violets - Cross My Heart 585 @ Marvin Smith - Have More Time 586 @ Soul Brothers Six - Thank You Baby For Loving Me 587 @ Debbie Dean - Why Am I Loving You 588 @ Sandra Philips - World Without Sunshine 589 @ The Petals - You Can't Close The Windows Of Your Heart 590 @ Bobby Williams - I've Only Got Myself To Blame 591 @ Bobby Jason - Wall To Wall Heartaches 592 @ Cajun Heart - Got To Find A Way 593 @ Cliff Nobles - My Love Is Getting Stronger 594 @ Isley Brothers - My Love Is Your Love 595 @ The Inspirations - Your Wish Is My Command 596 @ Charles Sheffield - Its Your Voodo Working 597 @ The Ambassadors - To Much Of A Good Thing 598 @ William Powell - Heartache Souvenirs 599 @ Bobby Treetop - Wait Till I Get To Know Ya 600 @ Lorraine Silver - Lost Summer Love

I've always been able to relate to Don Ray - Born A Loser

My advice would be invest in a map. I still haven't got over Frankfurt 2005.

Nice thought, but as in my experience you can't get even a small number of northern soul fans (who happen to be mates) to agree on what constitutes a decent and acceptable set, I think you have an uphill battle. Maybe more scope outside UK?

The record sucked 25 years ago & it still sucks today. The only good thing about it is its consistency.

So also was Norman Jay.

I think they were £3 in Asda a couple of years ago. But shopping in Asda in not a good experience.

33 or 45rpm?

Thats where you are missing out. Shell out £150 on a pair of Bose earphones. Worth every penny. Sorry to hi jack your thread Helen - nice to meet you at Bisley.

Shocking video just in of the latest crowd scenes at a shopping centre do. Currently in Wigan, but coming to a shopping centre near you.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uN0M-B6Fztk

Absolutely. But listing all the records that aren't northern soul isn't going to be much fun for us soulies

Dunno, but this is quite enjoyable.

Yep. on the front page Make sure you are in the pod casts bit, you should see 'power search' click on that & enter 'northern soul' in the 'description' box. The first thing on the list of 1 to 6 is called "Northern Soul' Click on that you get 3 sub categories. Its written - DeEp In My SoUL...

For those that aren't aware..... you can, if you have iTunes download Northern Soul podcasts free of charge. I'm currently listening to an hours worth of 'Deep In My Soul' which is spot on. When I did search for "northern soul" only 6 came up though. Any advice on why that might be or where to go for others? Thanks Col.
