Hardly surprisng that you may not have heard of them as Northern Soul pretty much deals with rare songs almost by definition.
Patty and the Emblems had a top 10 hit on local Philly radio stations in 1964 with a song called 'Mixed Up, Shook Up, Girl' and are considered part of the Philly Sound by Northern Soulies.
An association not dissimilar to the Chicago based Chi Lites that you described, I suppose?
Here it is...'Mixed Up, Shook Up Girl'.
Try and ignore the dance style, it's out of sync and doesn't fit the music.
Honey and the Bees were an all girl quartet with great soulful harmonies, so this tune might better fit the vocal style you prefer;
This is the kind of stuff they're liked on the NS scene for.
Uptempo and danceable. 'Dynamite Exploded';
