Description
Issue 88 of Soul Up North is out NOW!
ALL MY SALES ARE ALWAYS PLAY-GRADED
AND NOT JUST GIVEN A VISUAL ONCE-OVER
ALL THE ITEMS I AM SELLING COME FROM FORTY YEARS OF COLLECTING SOUL
THERE WILL BE SOME REAL GEMS, SO MAKE SURE YOU KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN
SOME OF MY LISTINGS CARRY 'BORROWED' SOUND CLIPS BENEATH THE TITLE
ALL MY ITEMS START WELL BELOW BOOK VALUE
SOME FROM AS LITTLE AS 50p
60s MEMPHIS NORTHERN SOUL
with BEAT BALLAD/DEEP SOUL A-SIDE
ORIGINAL U.S. BLUE ISSUE
TWO WONDERFUL SIDES OF IMMENSE APPEAL
THEY SAY THAT THE BEST SOUL SINGERS COME STRAIGHT FROM THE CHURCH
SO THIS SINGLE ALREADY HAS EVERYTHING GOING FOR IT
SINCE IT WAS THE GROUP'S FIRST SECULAR 45
AFTER CHANGING FROM RECORDING GOSPEL AS THE DIXIE NIGHTINGALES
AND HAS THE PEDIGREE OF BEING TWO BOOKER T.-WILLIAM BELL COMPOSITIONS
THE OFFICIAL B-SIDE IS A BASS-DRIVEN UPTEMPO STOMPER
AND IS THEIR BEST NORTHERN SIDE BY FAR
WITH MAGIC ORGAN INTRO AND CHORUS BREAKS
NOT TO MENTION THE SPLENDID CALL-AND-RESPONSE VOCAL DELIVERY
THE SLOWER OFFICIAL A-SIDE IS CHAMPIONED BY JOHN RIDLEY HERE
OLLIE NIGHTINGALE : Sir Shambling's Deep Soul Heaven
AND COULD SERVE EQUALLY WELL AS A MID-TEMPO BEAT BALLAS
THE SALE COPY ON OFFER HERE IS OF AN ORIGINAL BLUE LABEL ISSUE
AS OPPOSED TO THE MORE COMMON GREEN LABEL REPRESS
THAT FEATURE IN BOTH OF THE YOUTUBE LINKS
LEAD SINGER OLLIE HOSKINS WENT SOLO IN 1970, AS OLLIE NIGHTINGALE
AND THE REST OF THE GROUP BRIEFLY SOLDIERD ON AS THE NIGHTINGALES
OLLIE & THE NIGHTINGALES
