HERE COMES THE NIGHT OWL
Northern Soul Revue 2017
For the Northern Soul collector few places rival Detroit as a source for quality, rare records. But Philadelphia comes pretty close and it is the city of brotherly love that produced America’s number one independent record label… the mighty Cameo-Parkway. Here, for the first time, we present the very best that that iconic company has to offer.
From the Wheel to Wigan, to the Weekender and beyond, the sound of Cameo-Parkway has packed the dance floors across the UK for over 50 years. From the opening bars of Dee Dee Sharp’s driving cover of Mel Tormé’s “Comin’ Home Baby” it’s easy to see why the label is so highly prized by collectors and dancers alike and why this unique vinyl tribute will touch the hearts of the faithful!
All of the classics are here: Chubby Checker, Christine Cooper, Bobby Paris, Yvonne Baker, Bunny Sigler, Jerry Jackson etc etc. The difficulty has been in deciding what to leave out, not what to include, maybe a second volume later in the year? One thing is for certain, 1.2 million YouTube viewers just love Cameo-Parkway!

•    First ever 100% Cameo Parkway Northern Soul package released for Record Store Day 2017. Featuring a rich mix of all-time Northern Soul classics and current in demand favourites such as Dee Dee Sharp’s R&B tinged dance floor smash “Comin’ Home Baby” and the moody, killer, “Deep Dark Secret”
•    A must have collection – everyone a winner!
•    Also available on 7-inch singles
