Northern Soul is essentially lesser known American soul artists from the 1960s.
If it was fast and danceable it would be embraced by the Northern Soul scene in the UK during the 70's.
Its beginnings began where Motown Soul ended.
The UK soul club DJs continued searching for music in the states which included importing rare R&B/Soul from small record label archives. The rarer, the better.
The scene is still very much alive today.
