Two more classic tunes from the Deptford Northern Soul Club dancefloor. Remastered for maximum effect.

Harold Hutton’s ‘Lucky Boy’ was originally on the Chess sub-label, Checker. Released in 1965, an original goes for around £50 these days.  ‘Lucky Boy’ was the B-side of his debut single, ‘It’s A Good Thing’, which launched him on a career that included regular spots on Soul Train during the 1970s. Filled with Motown-esque horn stabs, ‘Lucky Boy’ builds into a bongo-powered frenzy.

The super soulful Dells’ flipside from a year later was initially on Cadet, another Chess subsidiary originally called Argo.  Another £30-£50 gem, if you can find an original
copy. Typical of the band’s close harmony style, ‘Thinkin' About You’ is a mid-tempo groove with an insistent rhythm and some lush strings. All topped with a heart-warming baritone vocal on a classic piece of soul romanticism.
