Description:
Released in 1967 on Okeh Records, “You’re Going to Miss Me (When I’m Gone)” by Chuck Bradford is a sterling slice of Northern Soul perfection — a driving beat, lush orchestration, and Bradford’s urgent, heartfelt vocal delivery. The production, handled with the signature polish of Chicago soul, makes it a staple for Northern Soul DJs and collectors alike.
The flip side, “Say It Was a Dream,” softens the tone with a mid-tempo groove and smooth harmonies, revealing Bradford’s versatility as both a powerhouse and crooner. While not widely known outside soul collector circles, this single represents the golden craftsmanship of late-’60s Okeh output — where gospel emotion met dancefloor energy.
