Hung Up On Your Love


Originally released on the independent Paula label from Shreveport, Louisiana, Hung Up On Your Love was a big fave at the Blackpool Mecca in the 70's and it is not hard to work out why. Featuring a stellar vocal performance from Phil Perry, this is one of my personal fave Northern Soul tunes from East St Louis' The Montclairs.

  1. Haven't heard this one since circa 1983, Scott. There are so many stand-out "Northern Soul" tunes that a series could easily go for months without running out of steam. I look forward to hearing your favourites and seeing if they intersect with my own.
