Stefan Taylor & The Signatures are a ten-piece UK
band specialising in Northern Soul covers. They have backed many legendary
US artists when they have appeared in the UK.
Today (1 Aug 2021) they have released an album of ten covers of Northern
Soul 'classics' titled "Run For Cover" ... which will have many NS devotees doing exactly that!
Northern Soul die-hards will wonder why? .. as covering Northern Soul
classics is the antithesis of what NS is all about!
Anyway, to the album, it covers the following, in order of appearance,
Julien Covay, The Dells, Jackie Wilson, Nolan Porter, Darrell Banks, Gene
Chandler, The Carstairs, The Originals, Al Wilson and finally The
M.V.P.s.
I was interested to listen to what they did with The Carstairs classic,
as I don't know of any other covers of the song, a brave selection! I'll
let you make your own mind up!
The album is also available as CD or Vinyl from
Static Wax. (I wonder if this label is related to Sonic Wax?)
