| Real Side Records borrows its name from the great Larry Saunders 1970s anthem "On The Real Side" and tips a stylistic hat to its infectious Modern Soul production. A collaboration between Midlands No.1 Soul Shop "Mr Tee's" and "Joe Boy", Real Side aims to bring you the freshest new soul rhythms ... dance floor hot and radio ready!
Mecca stalwart Mr Tee has been the friendly face of Northern Soul for over 30 years (make that 40 years!) and is known today as much for his modern soul expertise as his well established badge and record business in Kidderminster. Long time friend and adviser to Joe Boy Records it was only a matter of time before Mr Tee and Joe Boy hooked up to deliver a new slant on a much loved medium - Real Side Records is the result.
After a seven year sabbatical Joe Boy Records re-emerged in 2008 with the acclaimed Precisions debut album. "The Northern Soul re-issue market has found a new audience for quality, interesting releases that are thoughtfully compiled and packaged with passion. But, the future is in the writing and recording and re-interpreting of material for the discerning Modern Soul market. This is where a new label can really make its mark and hand something down to Northern Soul history". www.realsiderecords.co.uk
