a great collection of songs from soul singer & songwriter barbara brown.

a collection of maxine brown’s finest wand recordings.

a collection of classic northern soul rarities from the 60s to early 70s.

eddie parker cut his northern soul anthems ‘i’m gone’ and ‘love you baby’ indetroitin the late 60s, showing there was life after pied piper for jack ashford and lorraine chandler. intense energy, grit and soul are the hallmarks of these seminal sides.

the checkerboard squares’ ‘double cookin’’ is a byword for the northern soul all-nighters of the 70s, when hundreds of dancers would hit the beat and clap in unison to the spirited instrumental. our discovery of two vocal versions of the song shook the rare soul world in the noughties. here we feature the tandels’ all-girl take on a song they had previously recorded to a more basic arrangement on the obscure jam-cha label.

we have already released the longer version of the northern classic ‘gone with the wind is my love’, but this kent 45 of rita & the tiaras’ masterpiece is the first time we have issued the doré single as it was originally put out. on the flip is the glorious instrumental version for lovers of that la orchestral soul sound.
