A album for music lovers

Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2006

Verified Purchase

What can be said for the verves best lp,..I was watching a bad movie on cable one night, and i heard a song in this movie, at some LA party type setting, it was "Slide away". Probable the most known song from their first LP. That song cought my attention, looked in the credits got the name and sought them out. Bought "A storm in heaven". Liked the cd alot, loved slide away, but I was unsure of there longevity. Kinda forgot about them untell I found out there where coming to town to play. Bought a ticket (even if your not a big fan of a group from over seas, never know if you will ever get another chance to see them live again) It was the "Norther soul" tour. I had bought a norther soul cd already and loved it! One raido staion was playing "History" off this album. It was a sami big hit for the band. The album instantly became one of my faviorte cd's (out of 300). Finally a band that will withstand the test of time! So i thought....every song on the album has a feel all its own. History- synphony background loop with great lyics very smooth.

Drive you home- folk rock but very powerfull sounding.

So it goes- a blue eyed soul song.

Brimstom Interlude- psychedelic rock.

A new decade- rock.

A northern soul- psychedelic rock hypnotic gitar.

This is only 6 songs that are just awsome. Not a stinker in the bunch on this cd IMHO. If u listin to this album twice you will be hooked...Only if u like good music.

Sadly to say the band is broken up and Richard Ashcroft is doing his solo thing. From what I heard is that the synphony loop they used in the back ground of "Bitter sweet synphony" was a track off a stones album. It ended with the stones winning a copyright infringement lawsuit and the rights for the song....

I was fortunet enough to see this timeless band twice! I have 4 verve cd's and 2 Ashcroft cd's. Just to let u know im a fan of this band. (could ya tell?)

The Vinyl sounds fantastic. So deep and dark and bright all at the same time. Get this before it goes away.

If Love Is A Drug, Then I Don't Need It

Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2015

Verve!!!! They were great before the "the." If you like psychedelic rock to zone out, dream, and discover worlds within worlds to, then they are for you. Music to trip too.
Unfortunately, this is probably their weakest output. Their debut, A Storm In Heaven, is miles above this. This albums successor, Urban Hymns, though a commercial breakthrough, is deservedly so, and has many more songs then this album. Their debut e.p.s, Verve & No Come Down, are both better than this, too.
Northern Soul is a little to hokey. But the first four tracks are pretty good. On Your Own and History are both essential, wonderful songs. Get their albums in order, is my advice.

Reviewed in the United States on August 7, 2017

Bought this based on the recommendations on Amazon and also from others on a music forum I'm on (Phish.net). I'm a very big fan of Richard Ashcroft, and really love Urban Hymns and Forth as well, but I'd never heard A Northern Soul. Everyone seemed to say that this was their best album, so I picked it up. I can't say I'm let down really, as it's a good listen and definitely quality music however I can't agree at all that it's better than the later Verve albums or Ashcroft's solo efforts. The thing I see lacking on A Northern Soul is good songwriting; it has all the ingredients of the Verve sound of course, but it just does't stick with me all that much and doesn't beg repeated listenings. I've listened to it about 8-10 times and it has yet to 'click'. Yes, it's more experimental than the later work, but I just think Ashcroft hadn't yet mastered his writing at this point. It does show where they were headed though, and it definitely has its moments but overall I it's weaker than his later output.

A great 1995 album from Wigan's finest

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 18, 2017

Verified Purchase

Powerful, often angst-ridden, 2nd album released in 1995, which combines Richard Ashcroft's soaring vocals and Nick McCabe's classy, often thunderous, lead guitar work. Highlights include 'This Is Music', 'On Your Own', 'Life's An Ocean' and the glorious 'History' as well as the riff-laden title track. Highly recommended album which many Verve fans regard as superior to the more commercially successful 'Urban Hymns' although, to be honest, both are well worth investing in.

これが彼らの最高作かも

Reviewed in Japan on September 1, 2017

Verified Purchase

同じ布陣で録音した２００７年の４ｔｈも結果的には本作の展開版ともいえる内容だった。完成された彼らのサウンドが、今も新鮮だ。ちょうどクラシックロックのエッセンスを当時のセンスで演奏するバンドが多かった中で、既成のアメリカンロック、ブリテイッシュロックのコピーに終わらなかったバンドとして存在感がある。このアルバム後半の曲には同じプロデユーサーの関係かオアシス風な旋律やギターサウンドがあったりするが、それは彼らの意図に関係なく、時代の産物と思えば当時が懐かしい。それにしても強靭なバンドサウンドだ。かなり修練した感のある重さとぶっとさが、英国のアマチュア・ジャムバンドの伝統を感じさせる。そこに頼りないが陶酔感のあるボーカルが被さると彼ら独自のサイケデリックな世界が拡がる。最初の４曲は流れも素晴らしく、配列が完璧である。アルバム一枚が非常に短く感じる。各楽器のサウンドがオーソドックスではあるがその道の最高のサウンドをしている。これは演奏だけでなく、サウンド方面からの興味でも聴くべきアルバムである。盛り上がっていたロンドンの当時最高の才能が結集したような作品。まさにルネッサンスだ。

il primo classico (ignorato) dei verve

Reviewed in Italy on January 9, 2016

Verified Purchase

Credo che questo sia un album davvero molto bello e ingiustamente sottovalutato. Quando si parla dei Verve si parla quasi solo di "Urban hymns" vuoi per l'incredibile successo commerciale vuoi per l'alta qualità della proposta. Ma "A northern soul", uscito due anni prima, contiene già tutte le caratteristiche che hanno reso celebre e imperdibile "Urban hymns". E non le contiene semplicemente abbozzate, sono già mature e codificate. L'amore per un sound che unisce psichedelia e pop music è evidentissima anche in questo album. Le ballad eteree e vagamente drogate che erano presenti in quell'album ci sono anche qui e sono altrettanto belle, vedi un brano come "drive you home". Ma è in pezzi come "brainstorm interlude" e "history" che la band da il meglio di se, la prima con quell'incedere acido e quasi hard, la seconda con quel pop sinfonico che renderà grande "Bittersweet symphony". Da ricordare l'incedere incalzante dei due brani d'apertura, le ottime "a new decade" e "this is music". Il perchè "Urban hymns" sia stato (meritatamente) il successo che è stato e questo "A northern soul" sia stato un fiasco commerciale (e in parte di critica) è qualcosa che alla prova dell'ascolto non so davvero capire.

Melancholie auf sechs Saiten

Reviewed in Germany on April 28, 2015

Verified Purchase

Was Richard Ashcroft und seine Jungs hier auf 64 Minuten zelebrieren, läßt einen berauscht zurück und manche Songs klingen noch lange Zeit im Kopf nach.

Diese Scheibe ist der Miissing Link zwischen dem experimentellen 93er Album "A Storm In Heaven" und dem stark melodisch angehauchten 97er Werk "Urban Hymns" und wahrscheinlich ihr bestes Album.

Sie zeichnet sich durch Ashcroft's durchdringend melancholischen Gesang aus, der von endlosen, psychedelischen Gitarrenläufen untermalt wird. Vor allem die überlangen Stücke wie "So It Goes" oder "Drive You Home" lassen den Zuhörer über Kopfhörer in Trance versinken.

Sehr empfehlenswert ... Alternative Guitar at its best !!!
