If you are, how about Detroit evergreen that looks like it's never seen a Northern Soul DJ. We know it has but this 45 has been treasured by it's previous carer. No hasty throwing on the turntable, with one hand and a pint of beer in the other. It's not been laid on top of the DJ box without a sleeve, whilst you choose you next 45, which needs hardly any thought, as your dancefloor is shoulder to shoulder rammed as Betty's Motor City sultry vocal takes to the air.
A guaranteed set-solidifying choice, a platform for the rest your DJ set to leap from; a record that instantly wins you the love of the crowd, applause guaranteed..
From the first blast of horns, this beseeching Sister's vocal portrays an intense recovery from deep hurt. But the girl is getting stronger and you're completely falling for her charms. The strength in her voice beams through, contradicting her hidden pain, transforming the listener / dancer's mood for the better. But it's not only her vocal, the instrumental guitar break is in a class of it own, as it bridges the song so seamlessly as the second part of her despair is about to be poured upon you.
Dancing to Soul is a personal inner expression, that this 45 triggers so easily, you feel her torture, you sense her recovery and you feel elated. This is 60's girl Northern Soul at it's most galvanizing..
For all the brilliance of the a-side, the flipside is so nearly as good.. another two for the price of one, winner that nobody ever grows tired of hearing... if they ever do .. just flip it over, you will have a few running to the turntables asking "What's this ?"
