Last night we watched the televised recording of a 2023 BBC Prom Concert dedicated to the Northern Soul phenomenon. This was the closing song at the concert, Frank Wilson's anthemic "Do I Love You (Indeed I Do)", which was voted #1 in The Northern Soul Top 500, based on a survey held among Northern Soul fans. Every singer onstage was excellent throughout the evening and the accompanying orchestra was fantastic, as was the vibe on- and offstage: All subsequent posts will be devoted to Northern Soul 45s with little or no comment. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northern_soul

Lotsa good stuff to come. From 1967, this is Frankie Beverly and The Butlers with "If That's What You Wanted":

I first thought "What Shall I Do" was by The Newbeats (coming up soon), as the singer's high voice put me in mind of that of Larry Henley, but these are Frankie and the Classicals. I'm continually being floored by the sheer quality and creativity of the songs embraced by the Northern Soul movement.

It's high time I stopped waffling and let the music in this thread speak for itself:
