SOUL CITY
RECORDS
Soul City started life in late 1966 as a small
record shop in Deptford High Street, South London, run by Dave Godin,
David Nathan and Robert Blackmore. It specialized in selling American
R & B and Soul records. It soon out grew the shop in Deptford and moved up
town to 17 Monmouth Street, London, W.C.2. On 9 March 1968, the first release on
Soul City records, SC 101 Don Gardener & Dee Dee Ford, "Don't You
Worry/I'm Coming Home To Stay" was issued. During the next two years, 19 singles
were issued, with some very collectable sounds on a U.K. soul label. The records
were initially distributed by Island and then Philips when they took over Island
CBS were going to distribute, but we went bust before we could issue the first
single under their banner, Some nineteen singles were issued, from 1968-70,
along with six more on the sister-label, Deep Soul. Numbering for
Soul City singles was in an SC-100 series. The label has been revived
fairly recently, and has been issuing Soul singles in the same 7" format, with
the same style of labels and company sleeves, as the
original. Numbers for the latter-day releases are from
SC-123.
