About Vintage Northern Soul Vinyl Records

The Northern Soul genre, often forgotten by music history, was not only highly influential, but produced some of the most collectible 45 rpm vinyl records that exist today. A fusion of traditional soul and danceable 'Detroit soul,' the phenomenon spread like wildfire in the 1970s.

Along with the records came a subculture consisting of post-mod fashion and popular patches and buttons from the clubs. Collectors seek titles by the giants of the genre, like Gloria Jones or Jackie Wilson and the Imperials. Northern Soul records are generally regarded as the most expensive vinyl to collect.
