[Machine Translation] Soul Mania Drooling! Sony and SonyBMG are releasing 100 tracks of Northern Soul, a genre that has many fans in Japan, from the most popular songs to the most rare ones! SonyBMG (UK) and Sony's R&B labels: Columbia, Epic, PIR, OK, Bell, Amy, Mara, Goldwax, RCA, etc. have come together to release 100 rare Northern Soul singles and songs on 4 CDs. The CDs, which were sold separately in the UK, have been coupled and released in Japan. Northern Soul refers to the catchy, danceable, urban soul music of the 1960s, which was released mainly in Detroit and Chicago. Not all of these singles made it to the soul charts, and some were sales flops, but in later years the excellence of the music was reappraised, with some singles fetching several thousand dollars at auctions. This compilation album also includes many of these rare recordings, and since it was produced in the UK, it is a parade of songs that are a must-listen not only for soul fanatics, but also for mod/punk rock and roll lovers!
