Bargain 2 CD set of well chosen tracks, nothing ...
Bargain 2 CD set of well chosen tracks, nothing that made the UK charts so plenty of of tracks to get to know. Most well known tracks will be The Bottle by Gil Scott Heron & Brian Jackson & Cymande The Message. Can't go wrong with this.

Great if northern soul fan.
Will be great nostalgia for northern soul fans. Not quite what I expected. I'm used to Motown soul with their very inventive sounds. This is more low key most of the songs anyway.
