In the meantime, try this thread. http://www.musicbanter.com/soul-funk...ul-cellar.html It's a work in progress (neglected recently) but each mini review has a working link in the post/song title.

I would love to see this back on track fella.

The amount of times I've mentioned that record on these boards...

... I even posted youtube vids on more than one occasion and all without a response.

Being strictly a deep soul song it doesn't really belong here in a thread about Northern Soul...but it does give me another excuse to post a youtube vid of it.

And at the risk of sounding like Ian L***ne...if a person doesn't feel this, then they're dead from the neck up! Very possibly the most perfect soul song of all time.

The download is tight RT and just what I expected. I have heard plenty of Northern Soul along the way, but never had some down on hard copy. A great compilation.

Whisper:try Badongo free file hosting and image hosting for uploading-much better speeds up and down. Mega is giving me 25 kbs on a 20 meg connection-terrible!

I think Heatwave were always in the Disco Funk bracket, although I have seen them listed as Jazz Funk somewhere. I had a mate who was an absolute Northern Soul addict and I always remember her playing this-

I wouldn't class Heatwave in the Northern Soul bracket, although some of their Funk stuff might be popular in some quarters of the scene.

Right-track I'm in one of my adventurous moods if you upload a northern soul comp or link me to one I'll listen to it. Preferably the melancholic bleeding heart type stuff, you know how I roll.

That's gonna be tough. I have plenty of bleeding heart type stuff, but it's hardly meloncholy given that most of Northern is played in 4/4 time.
Upbeat 100mph music sung with a broken heart, is the stock in trade.
