    The selection in "Customers who bought this item also bought..." is worth a look too.

    I've got more than one gig this year wanting NS... an ask to a new acquaintance of mine - the President of Cambridge Scooter Club, who also does a bit of retro DJing for them - and they are more than a little partial to Tamla / Northern - has sent me on to this 2 CD set, which has just about every track mentioned in this thread...

    last 3 tracks disk 2
    Every all-nighter traditionally ended with three songs that became known as the 3 before 8: "Time Will Pass You By" by Tobi Legend, "Long After Tonight Is Over" by Jimmy Radcliffe, and "I'm On My Way" by Dean Parrish.

    Default Northern Soul Top 500

    There has been quite a bit of interest and talk about northern soul on here, even in the short time i have been on the forum. This is a genre I particularly love and play as much as I get the chance (or find someone to pay me to play it that is)

    I found this rather useful link to the 'Northern Soul Top 500' compiled by non less than the highly regarded and respected Northern Soul DJ 'Kev Roberts'

    It's not a new list - in fact it was published in 2000 - however although there are 'new discoveries' and changes in poplarity of certain songs the Northern Scene does not 'update and renew' itself in quite the way other music genres do

    So IMHO this info is still relevant and valid as of today

    Here is a list of the Top 500 Northern Soul songs according to Kev Robert, followed by another 100 'bubbling under' tracks

    And finally there is a list of 20 CDs that are commercially available and contain between them most of the top 500 songs on the list

    I hope this is useful to any of you interested in learning more about, or playing, this genre of music

    Keep The Faith (as they say)..... and enjoy
