Time to get back 'out on the floor'. There's rarely a day goes by when I don't listen to a few Northern Soul tracks, but it's been a while since the genre got an exclusive slot to itself. Of today's selection, Earl Van Dyke and Jr. Walker stand out for 'the groove'. Jimmy Radcliffe's “A casa non tornerò” is the one that most appeals to me. Italian 1960s Northern Soul tracks are as rare as hens' teeth. Al di là features cos it's one of my favourite Italian expressions and a true classic of Musica Leggere.
