Description
2022, 12″ compilation LP, Athens of the North.
Athens of the North have teased this collection of singles with a bunch of taster 7″s but still the full length itself confounds expectation. It is a superb work of heart aching soul and modern disco from Brief Encounters who are best known for their stone cold classics ‘Get A Good Feeling’ and ‘Just A Little Notion.’ The first of those two features here along with many others gems such as the blue-eyed opener ‘Where Will I Go,’ deep soul of ‘Don’t Let Them Tell You’ and bigger, horn led tunes like ‘I’m So Satisfied.’ It’s an essential album for any and all soul lovers. – Juno
