Hi,

you can't beat what I call mainstream Northern Soul.

There are some die-hards out there that will tell you thats "Commercial Northern Soul"

I specialise in Northern Soul nights and I would recommend for starters:

Northern Soul Forever - Classic cuts from the 60's and 70's - £4.98

A Treasurey of Northern Soul - Needle in a haystack Volume 1 - £7.98
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Treasury-Nor.../dp/B0001XQC4Y

The Ultimate Northern Soul Album - £1.95
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Ultimate-Nor.../dp/B000296FW6

Keeping the Faith - Northern Soul Box set (4cd) -£25.93
http://www.thehut.com/hut/8562360.pr...campaign=gp_cd

I could go on and on, but these should cover most events.

Keep the Faith!
