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!

Steve, I heard another track today that you might enjoy given our previous discussion about Darrell Banks - search for "I'm the One Who Loves You".

Oh, yes! High quality soul; superb voice. The version I chose on YouTube has a report of how Darrell Banks met his end: a 'crime passionel' by proxy, it seems. :(

Here's some more conventional northern soul that I hope you enjoy, one that came from the classic OKeh label. Like this one, simple but soulful.

I already posted the Tan Geers "other" big one a while back (207) but I think it stands another play (it's effing brilliant).

The eagle-eyed will note that this was a double-sider :-)

Anoraks on time: Following Swits' interest in Darrell Banks I was doing some research as I know that he recorded on Volt as well as the Solid Hitbound labels (Revilot etc) that Todmorden Tim and KR own the rights to. Well, I'm a bit behind the curve - it seems that Kent records (which is really where the connoisseurs go to look for their music) produced a CD of his Volt material, including some unreleased stuff.

Todmorden Tim = Tim Brown. He is supposed to have the biggest collection of northern soul in the world, certainly an unusual character. A world authority on rare american vinyl AND zoos. If that's not an eclectic blend, I don't know what is!

Enjoying seeing posts on here again NE

Just had a nice 10 or 15 mins sampling a few random tunes from early Kent Northern comps on YT. Again so many different sounds - elegant soul / pop, dirty R&B, almost slightly corny sounding girl groups
