This is an action packed episode of 1960s and 1970s soul! We've got well-known and more obscure tunes from the Northern scene, plus some 1970s crossover sounds, a run of R&B and popcorn steppers, and a cool-down with some midtempo grooves. We've got Nashville, Chicago, Detroit, Memphis, Philadelphia, and more represented!
