As time marches on and proper recognition has started coming toward Brit
soulsters like Dusty Springfield
</cg/x.dll?UID=8:59:32|AM&p=amg&sql=1DUSTY|SPRINGFIELD> , this collection is
the first entry in reassessing the Northern Soul movement in England in the
mid-'60s and how the British attempted to come up with their own version of
it. This fat-cat, 30-track collection brings together artists Black and
White, British, West Indian and American, all cutting soulful sounds for the
British Pye label. Rather than carbon copies of the legendary soul hits,
what we have here -- with a few notable exceptions -- is a collection of
strong original material performed in a solid approximation of an American
style. Highlights are numerous, including Jimmy James'
</cg/x.dll?UID=8:59:32|AM&p=amg&sql=1JIMMY|JAMES'> "This Heart of Mine,"
Jason Knight's </cg/x.dll?UID=8:59:32|AM&p=amg&sql=1JASON|KNIGHT'S> "Our
Love Is Getting Stronger," Ebony Keyes'
</cg/x.dll?UID=8:59:32|AM&p=amg&sql=1EBONY|KEYES'> "If You Knew," Kenny
Roberts' </cg/x.dll?UID=8:59:32|AM&p=amg&sql=1KENNY|ROBERTS'> poppish "Run
Like the Devil," Lorraine Silver's
</cg/x.dll?UID=8:59:32|AM&p=amg&sql=1LORRAINE|SILVER'S> "Lost Summer Love,"
and Petula Clark's </cg/x.dll?UID=8:59:32|AM&p=amg&sql=1PETULA|CLARK'S> "A
Sign of rhe Times," the biggest hit on here. Interesting covers also abound
in Sounds Orchestral's
</cg/x.dll?UID=8:59:32|AM&p=amg&sql=1SOUNDS|ORCHESTRAL'S> 100-mph rendition
of "Black Is Black," Geno Washington's
</cg/x.dll?UID=8:59:32|AM&p=amg&sql=1GENO|WASHINGTON'S> "She Shot a Hole In
My Soul," Helen Shapiro's
</cg/x.dll?UID=8:59:32|AM&p=amg&sql=1HELEN|SHAPIRO'S> "Take Me for a Little
While," Jackie Trent's </cg/x.dll?UID=8:59:32|AM&p=amg&sql=1JACKIE|TRENT'S>
"You Baby and Tammy St. John's
</cg/x.dll?UID=8:59:32|AM&p=amg&sql=1TAMMY|ST.|JOHN'S> "Nobody Knows What's
Going On." The other side of the British Invasion that didn't make it to
American shores. --
