"It Came From Memphis" 2005

Memphis music is so much more than Elvis, who nevertheless is its prime and most successful example.I have always thought that Memphis is the secret music capital of the U.S.A.. In comparasion with the products of Nashville, there has always been in Memphis music a certain "hairy vitality", as the late Jean Shepherd would say. I would say that Memphis music is more inclusive than Nashville music. Memphis music is the blending or collision of different elements, much like American society itself. Memphis music is so much more than Elvis, who nevertheless is its prime and most successful example.

This is the third complilation that Robert Gordon has produced with the title It Came From Memphis. What he lacks in imagination in titling is more than made up by the breath and depth of its contents. The major labels of Memphis musical history (Sun, Stax & Hi) are well represented here. Many of its leading lights are also represented. For example, Jim Dickinson appears on three songs, as part of Mud Boy & the Neutrons covering the "5" Royales "Slummer D Slum" (very good, but not as great as the original), as a solo doing "Down in Mississippi and finally as lead singer of the Jesters' "Cadillac Man", the last great Sun record, a '66 record with the spirit of '56. Although Otis isn't around for this particular date (& neither is Rufus Thomas), the Stax contingent is well represented with Booker T. & the M.G.'s, The Mar-Keys, Eddie Floyd, William Bell's "You Don't Miss Your Water" and Issac Hayes' epic version of "By The Time I Get to Phoenix". Hi Records is present & accounted for with songs from Ann Peebles, Syl Johnson and Al Green with one of my favorite songs of his, "Simply Beautiful". Alex "LX" Chilton pops up here with Big Star's "September Gurls" and solo with "Hook or Crook" (I would have added the Box Tops' "Soul Deep" to complete that particular trifecta). There's Sun rockabilly madness with Billy Riley, Sonny Burgess, Jerry Lee Lewis & even Elvis as part of the Million Dollar Quartet and blues in the personages of Howlin' Wolf, Bobby Rush and the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion.

In the midst of all these riches, there are three tracks that really struck me. The first one was "Spanish Delight" by The Bo-Keys, made up of Memphis musical vets, which sounded like vintage Booker T. & the M.G.'s. Another song was "Whitewash Station Blues" by the Memphis Jug Band, which made me realize where the Lovin' Spoonful got most of their style from (& john Sebastian his voice). Finally, the Reigning Sound's "If You Can't Give Me Everything" sounds and feels like Blond on Blond Dylan.

To finally finish up, this is a great compilation that is well worth picking up. This is a fine representation of the music of the Secret Music Capital of the U.S.A.. - By diskojoe (Salem, MA USA)

"THE SOUND STAGE 7 SOUL STORY"

For a label that began its existence with no particular stylistic direction, Sound Stage 7 Records handily transformed itself into one of the foremost purveyors of '60s Southern soul. Founded by Fred Foster in 1963 as a subsidiary to his Nashville-based Monument label (where Roy Orbison registered a slew of mammoth hits and Boots Randolph blew up a sax storm), Sound Stage 7 scored pop hits with hits by the Dixiebelles and lesser charters by Joe Perkins and the Monarchs. Other early signees included future Atlanta Rhythm Section front man Rodney Justo and the late Johnny Ace's brother, billed as Ace St. Claire. This compilation of American independent Soul/R&B/Funk music is currently one of most exciting areas of record collecting. Sound Stage 7 was one of the greatest labels for this music. From such humble beginnings sprang a southern soul recording empire right in the heart of Nashville! We invited serious DJ's, record collectors and all round Soul/Funk addicts, to compile the best funky CD from the SS7 archives. (Allmusic)The Sound Stage 7 music label, established in 1963, was the soul subsidiary of Nashville's Monument label (known in the 1960s pop world for being Roy Orbison's imprint from 1960-65 and Ray Stevens's and Tony Joe White's after that) and may have had the most underrated roster of top-notch talent in the field of R&B/soul. Sound Stage 7's Sir Lattimore Brown and Roscoe Robinson, for example, were sensational Southern soul singers who had multiple single releases for the label but never broke through nationally. Their veteran soul man Roscoe Shelton (not many labels, I'm guessing, could boast two Roscoes!) at least managed one breakthrough: his "Easy Going Fellow" (1966) rose to #32 on the Billboard soul chart and "bubbled under" the pop chart at #102. Likewise, the label's female star, Ella Washington (a truly outstanding vocalist of this genre), could only score once [#38 soul/#77 pop in 1968] with her gorgeously soulful take on Patsy Cline's posthumous country hit "He Called Me Baby." The label's only multiple-hit artist was the great Joe Simon, who had 18 national chart strikes from 1966 to 1972 (the last coming two years after he left SS7).

The label peaked in 1968-69 with three Grammy nominations and a number one record. In 1968, both Ella Washington and Joe Simon received R&B performance nominations: Ella's "He Called Me Baby" lost to Aretha Franklin's "Chain of Fools," and Joe Simon's "(You Keep Me) Hangin' On" finished behind Otis Redding's posthumous winner, "(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay." (No shame in not beating those two records!) In '69, Joe Simon topped the soul chart for three weeks with "The Chokin' Kind" [also SS7's biggest pop hit ever, reaching #13] and won the label's only Grammy, besting Ray Charles, B.B. King, Jerry Butler and Lou Rawls. Since SS7 was a Nashville label (although it farmed out some of its recordings to studios in Memphis), it was not unexpected that a country element would seep in. "He Called Me Baby" and "The Chokin' Kind" (a cover of a 1967 #8 country hit by Waylon Jennings) were both penned by the great country songwriter Harlan Howard. And "(You Keep Me) Hangin' On" was originally a minor country hit in '67 by the Gosdin Brothers.

This 2-disc collection features 20 different acts and no more than three selections by any one of them, thus spreading the wealth around. (Obviously, it would also be worthwhile to own a Joe Simon SS7 best-of CD.) Late in the label's run, it started to break out of its established pattern a bit, with socially-messaged songs like the Valentines' pounding "Breakaway" and Moody Scott's six-minutes-plus all-out funk attack on urban poverty and the pusher man, "(We Gotta) Bust Out of the Ghetto." We also get a fine slice of electric Chicago blues (out of Nashville?!?) in the form of Fenton Robinson's "The Getaway." It's possible that the handwriting was on the wall and that the end was inevitable for the label with a succession of titles about "bust[in'] out," "Breakaway" and "Getaway"! (Actually, the label hung on for a while, and in 1977 Ann Sexton dented the soul chart with a #79 record.)

This Fuel 2000 collection could not be much better than it is. The sound is first-rate and included is a 12-page booklet with ten pages of informative text by Bill Dahl covering all twenty featured artists or groups. One thing that is missing, though, is any songwriter credits not referenced in Dahl's text.

I feel lucky to have been living in a part of the country in the late '60s that was within clear range of Nashville's nightly soul music radio giant WLAC, thus enabling me to hear a lot of this great music when it was new. (The Soul Detective)

"THE FIRE/FURY RECORDS STORY" Rarities Collection

Bobby Robinson may not be a household name, but his influence is subtly pervasive in the 21st century. Born in South Carolina, he moved to New York City after serving in the Army during World War II, where he opened a record shop in Harlem. Branching out into record production, he worked with Ahmet Ertegun for a time at Atlantic Records before he began to establish a series of his own independent labels, which would go on to include Red Robin Records (established in 1952), Whirlin' Disc Records (1956), Fury Records (1957), Everlast Records (1957), Fire Records (1959), and Enjoy Records (1962), and later he worked as an early hip-hop producer in New York in the 1970s and 1980s. This set features blues, R&B, and early rock & roll rarities from his Fire and Fury imprints, many of which work the rougher, rawer end of what would later be called soul. (Steve Leggett, Allmusic)

"ESSENTIAL ALABAMA BLUES" (1926-1952)

As students of the blues will know, the best music is often made in the most oppressive conditions. Discrimination and hardship led many African-Americans to abandon Alabama; they took their music with them, and this is how Alabama's blues spread to other parts of the United States. The musicians gathered here may have made their name in other locations, but their music is a direct and immensely entertaining link back to the Yellowhammer State where they were born and raised.trax disc 1:

"Get A Job" The Ember Records Story 1956-1962

Ember was founded in New York as a sister label to Herald by Al Silver. It would release one hundred and eleven singles in its eight years in business. And while many of its artists and their recordings are now obscure, two singles - 'In The Still Of TheNight' by the Five Satins and 'Get A Job' by the Silhouettes - are acknowledged classics. Ember would fold in the face of the British Invasion in 1964, but we feature here the brightest and best offerings before the flame finally flickered. (The R&B Review)Nice compilation of the New York label, set up as a sister to Herald by Al Silver - and nothing to do with the UK label of the same name. Here you have a nice mix of doo wop, teen, r&b, rockin' blues, proto soul and one that passes muster as rockabilly, 'Convertible Car' by Wally Hughes.

The emphasis is on doo wop, with two bona fide classics in 'Get A Job' and 'In The Still Of The Night', uptempo and slow, as is the very first Ember, buried at the tail end of CD3, 'Dear Diary' by The Smooth-Tones (real men don't keep diaries!). You may care for the rockin' nonsense doo wop of The Schooners, followed by the uptempo 'Pretty Brown Eyes', in turn followed by the Diddley rhythm of Sonny & Jaycee. Essentially, the doo wops come in slow, mid- and uptempo, some with teen content. One that caught my ear was 'Smoke From Your Cigarette', The Fabulons, a slowie. Originally cut by Lillian Leach & The Mellows in '54 for Jay Dee, The Belmonts also recorded it in '61, flip of 'Tell Me Why'. (It gets my vote).

Odd man out is Cousin Leroy (Leroy Rozier), easy rockin' blues, an A/B and an odd track, he also cut for Herald. Some fine sax instros from Lee Allen, David Clowney (aka Dave "Baby" Cortez) gets in a slowish piano instro. Don't believ The Chips are the same as they of 'Rubber Biscuit' fame, Rudy Green offers some rockin' r&b, Colonairs a bit old-school doo wop. One or two ladies add to the mix, the oddly named Jo-An & The Belginettes with a hint of early soul. (Presumably the same Belginettes who recorded later for OKeh and USA). (Record Runner)

"LOST R&B SHOUTERS!" Vol. 1

A terrific collection of urban blues from the late 40s/ early 50s featuring those powerful big voiced singers we call "blues shouters." Most of the artists here are very obscure and only made a handful of sides and many tracks here are making their first appearance on CD. The most familiar names here are Piney Brown and "Rubberlegs" Williams who are here with some fine tracks and the rest of the artists are equally good including Ray Snead, The Chocolateers, Al Bias (his song Bad Pecker is obviously about a bird!), Sharkey Hall (the delightfully titled Barrel Of Snakes), Leroy Johnson, King Perry (some always timely medical advice Vaccinate Me Baby), Cliff Bivins, Mr. Blues Carson, Pedro Johnson & His Orch. and others. Accompaniments range from rhythm sections to bands with saxes and other brass instruments. Sound quality from these rare 78s is superb and while there are no notes there is discographical information, though, unfortunately many of the excellent musicians featured are unknown.
