Any proper music fan would never treat you for a fool, they'd just share the love.

But if Curveball is up for it we'll keep this thread ticking over with interesting stuff.

"Flower by Liz Phair

I listened and gave it a try but it wasn't for me.

However, it was good to try something different as I only tend to listen to one genre normally

What genre is that Sam?

Northern Soul, it's been a huge part of my life since I was around 12years old.

Record collecting, all nighters etc etc"

Nice, a genre I love, but I'm no expert and the pieces of vinyl. Sheesh they're expensive. Even the reissues...

This is actually really good. I'm surprised. Reminding me of a Michael Kiwanuka track I can't put my finger on right now...

Yep that's a huge song...

Both are more ska punk but I find them dancey

I love that you love northern soul

If you're an aficionado and only want a certain track on the correct label etc you can pay through the roof for it these days.

But you can still build up a good collection for a reasonable amount if you don't mind re issues etc.

Some snobs about who insist on everything being right but others say it's the sound that matters more.

nah it always felt overplayed. It’s ok, and I can’t resist singing along but I wouldn’t seek it out.

I love the specials, madness, and anything like it. I like reggae a lot and new wave.

I genuinely struggle to figure out who fits in one category as sometimes things are reggae or new wave but i felt like they were ska. Or the crossover definitions of punk ska and punk.

Yeah I hear all of that. Inc that track being overplayed.

We'd need a whole separate thread for reggae. Esp if we start with mento, blue beat through ska, rocksteady, lovers rock, dub poetry, dance Hall...

But let's play this from a legend;
