Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Yeah NS. I listened to another couple of his tunes and they were much more commercial and light.

Hann - I bought some samplers and then from those explored further. When I get my vinyl back I'll have a root through for some recommendations. I had a good look around for some of them on t'interweb last night but couldn't find what I was looking for.

Best to start small or you can end up with a bit of a problem ....

Also good to bear in mind that there are crossover tunes that get categorised elsewhere. R & B, things that were chart hits such as Dobie Gray's Out On The Floor, Maxine Nightingale's Right Back to Where We Started From etc.

Can pick up some good things that way.

Think I got into Chairman of the Board because at least one of their songs was big on the NS scene. They're now a fave band of mine. Ditto Millie Jackson.

This cassette tape got me into Northern Soul. I bought most of the NME samplers. I was broken-hearted when my boyfriend at the time had it stolen from his car, along with a few of my other NME samplers. This is easily the one I miss the most.
