BARBARA ACKLIN - Love Makes a Woman '68 @320
Always classy and elegant, Barbara Acklin's debut album, Love Makes a Woman could survive on the reputation of the title track alone. One of the premier recordings of writer/producer Carl Davis, "Love Makes a Woman" features the bright horns and relaxed rhythms that are hallmarks of his productions for the Brunswick label. Coupled with Acklin's tense, confident delivery, the results are one of pop-soul's true shining moments. Well-written originals here, like "Be By My Side" and "Come and See Me Baby," more than stand up to covers from the Bacharach/David canon, making this one of the most solid soul debuts ever released.

BOBBY KING & TERRY EVANS - Rhythm, Blues, Soul & Grooves '90 @320
If you love soul music you won't be disappointed. Ry Cooder finds the BEST musicians and these two were made for each other. PERFECT!
The duo of Bobby King and Terry Evans followed their well-received 1988 duet session with a solid second outing, this time taking over the production chores as well as the performances. The ten tracks included anguished love tunes, uptempo dance cuts, and moving ballads, with the accent on their own material as they split writing duties and penned nine of the cuts. With Evans' huge, resonant bass voice often booming and soaring, King's striking falsetto tenor contrasted it with vigor. Sadly, this sound had little chance for getting any exposure at urban contemporary radio, but those who love great singing should savor it. (Ron Wynn, Allmusc)
Here is the re-incarnation of Sam and Dave. Better still, they have incorporated the Ry Cooder mellow heavy slide and the Buzzy Feiten stinging sharp edge guitar to keep the whole package out of the sixties revival sound. A great album for driving, parties, and even a few tracks for snuggling up to the ladies. (Wild Willie)

THE LEMON PIPERS - Love Beads And Meditation '68 @320
2008 collection from the undisputed kings of Bubblegum Psych. Love Beads And Meditation combines their two albums, Green Tambourine (1967) and Jungle Marmalade (1968), which mashed up Soft Pop Bubblegum gems with the band's growling Rock tendencies and confused the hell out of everybody. The song 'Green Tambourine' was a massive hit everywhere and remains a dyed-in-the-wool classic. 'Rice Is Nice', 'Jelly Jungle', those sweet and soft hits just kept coming. But behind the grins of Ohio's happy hippie hit makers was a down and dirty Psychedelic Rock band, a caged beast straining to get out. Just listen to the likes of 'Fifty Year Void', 'No Help From Me' and the eardrum-frying 'Through With You' for proof. Rev-Ola.
The Lemon Pipers were a band from Oxford, Ohio who formed in late 1965..They released one single that year on a small labell, a song called "Quiet, Please"..It was a regional hit but never made it nationally...
That changed in mid 1966, when Buddah records boss' Kasenetz and Katz signed Ivan and the Sabres to their label, with the stipulation they change their name to the Lemon Pipers..So they did...Although they were given songs to record by outside writers, the band also wrote their own stuff, which , in some cases , actually surpasses the covers..
The album and single "Green Tamborine" were a big hit, top 5 for the single , and top 30 for the album..With it's sitar sounds and good feelings, the song "Green Tamborine" is a 60's classic, from 1968..Highlights of the outside material is "Rainbow Tree", "Blueberry Blue", "Turn Around and Take A Look" (one of my faves!) and "Ask Me If I Care"..The original songs, mostly sung by guitarist Bill Bartlett, are revelations in psychedelic music.."Fifty Year Void" is kinda bluesy and jammish, while the album closer, "Through With You" recalls The Byrds' "Eight Miles High" , only much longer--8 minutes!
The second album, "Jungle Marmalade", was released in late 1968, and in some ways , is a better album": "Jelly Jungle (Of Orange Marmalade") was the single , but only reached the number 47 spot or so on the ationcharts..They even cover the Byrd's song, "Wasn't Born to Follow", which is a little better...Great tracks are "Everything Is You" ( a pretty ballad), "Catch Me Falling", "Love Beads and Meditation" (more great bubble -psych melding), my fave psychedelic number "Wine and Violet" and the mega album ender , the 11 minute rocker medley "Dead End/Half Light"..
Definitely get this collection if you've ever loved late 60's rock...You won't be disappointed..
Note: Great , insightful liner notes and faithful reproductions of both album covers. (Shindig)

Okay, I'm getting this Lemon Pipers album if only because of the glowing writeup by Shindig(?)
In 1970 I had a roommate who graduated from Miami of Ohio University where the Lemon Pipers were also students at that time. He gushed on and on about their concerts and when we played music together he wanted us to be the Lemon Pipers. I said puleese no! Of course things didn't work out between us and he went off to build a yurt in Washington state.
If he ever found out that I'd be listening to the Lemon Pipers...
My vinyl copy of Barbara Acklin "LMAW" still proudly wears its $.39 sticker on its wrinkled and torn shrink-wrap. Not because it's only worth pennies but because I was smart enough to take that baby home. Sweet soul with a hint of funk. And although I might need to bark when she reaches those way-upper octaves it's worth the ride. Thanks for the reminder Mr. G.
BTW Johnny D…your secret is out. Stuck in the Jelly Jungle by orange marmalade. Hahahaha.
Thanks
hey Lemon Pipers are family to me. Be nice.
green beer day today in Oxford as the Miamians' move towards spring break....
timing is everything!
green beer... green tamborine...
all in!
If confession is good for the soul, then I must admit that the second LP I bought was this one:
http://www.amazon.com/Bubblegum-Music-Naked-Truth-Vol/dp/B0039P5LDE
Well, actually I bought the original Buddah Records 1969 version- the one on Amazon has extra tracks. But it had all three Lemon Piper singles, PLUS 1910 Fruitgum Company AND The Ohio Express! Let's not forget those bits of joy! The "Bubblegum Music" was the record company's hype of their product at the time, it was just plain pop psychedelia. Though I remember the guy who worked at the record store (a friend from school) shook his head "oh no!" when I bought it...
(Oh, my first LP was Best of The Bee Gees (1968) which is still a classic early Bee Gees album, IMUO.)
