This magnificent compilation comes from Okeh Record sides, the Windy City company that produced some of the best soul music of the '60s. Offering over 20 tracks, the CD is top heavy with seven Major Lance songs. The romantic "Call Me Tomorrow," an early track by Major "Love Won't Let Me Wait" Harris, is also featured, along with contributions from the hard-singing Tommy Tate with the aching "I'm Taking On Pain," and Larry Williams and Johnny "Guitar" Watson, who wail on two saucy duets: "Too Late," and "A Quitter Never Wins." Included as well are Billy Butler's most famous song "Right Track," the Artistics' biggest Okeh release "This Heart of Mine," a soulful Little Richard on "I Don't Want to Discuss It," two tear jerkers from Walter Jackson, and more. by Andrew Hamilton, Allmusictrax:

EXCELLENT! Thanks Gyro.
Another brilliant post.Ah,the music of my misspent youth.Still have some of these in my vinyl collection.Keep saying one day that I will sell my vinyl off but never get round to it.At least these nice compillations bring the music to people who can't afford the vinyl as for myself I can't justify paying ridiculous money for vinyl these days.
Excellent collection. Thank you! Good Vegas group.
