Northern Soul 2007 is a compilation, released September 2007, consisting of 24 new tracks as a tribute to the 1960s–1970s Northern Soul era, produced by Ian Levine and Clive Scott. The artists include new artists, like the X Factor participants Voices With Soul, established acts like The Flirtations, Jimmy James, and Leee John, and also artists that Levine had worked with in the 1980s—Earlene Bentley, Marsha Raven, Carol Jiani and Pearly Gates.
