Rock & Roll Sermon 1946-1956 @320
Rock and Roll Sermon is a collection of some of the finest sanctified music recorded between 1946-56. If you're not familiar with sanctified music,and you like the blues and dazzling guitars, pumping piano, and true-testifying, then you owe it to yourself to listen to this compilation. Unfortunately, this great music has largely been ignored by the general public and by music critics. Perhaps it is because these are songs of praise to the Lord, and many prefer to keep their musical and religious tastes seperated. After all, when was the last time you listened, outside of church, to selections from the Common Service Hymnal? While this is not blues music, many of the "blues forms" are utilized. Only the message has been changed. This is intense, dynamic, inspirational, and incredible music. Enjoy and Rejoice!!! (Amazon)

Scratchin’ - The Wild Jimmy Spruill Story
This compilation attempts to present a comprehensive overview of Jimmy's Spruills early career. In addition to relatively obscure collectibles also better known titles found side by side, and his percussive, rhythmic scratchy style runs through all the tracks. And while it is incomplete, this collection remains a really tremendous work and takes a renewed focus on an often overlooked and largely forgotten early "Guitar Hero" of the blues, R & B and Soul.
Spruill is still relatively unknown among blues/r&b fans, and that's a shame. He had a particular way of choking the strings on his guitar while using up and down strokes as he played. Once you hear his style it's unmistakeable. Probably the single "Kansas City" by Wilbert Harrison is the best known track where you can hear Spruill in full force. And if you want to hear more of Spruill's guitar check out the Harrison set on Collectables which has many sides with Spruill doing his thing. He played many sessions in the 1950's/early 1960's, especially for Bobby Robinson's Fire, Fury, Enjoy, Everlast, and VIN labels. Occasionally a track featuring Spruill will show up on r&b compilations--but rarely.
Very little is known about his life ("I picked cotton.") outside of his session work. He played on sessions for both well known and lesser known artists, and some who are just plain obscure. But the one thing these sides had in common was his "scratchy" style of guitar playing. He was originally influenced by westerns he saw at the movies as a young boy, and can also play c&w style music. He never considered himself a bluesman ("I never liked the blues."), and began playing at house parties, fish fry's, and other local gigs before venturing to New York for session work.
This set is a good overview of both Spruill's style and r&b of the period. You'll recognize names like Wilbert Harrison, Tarheel Slim, Elmore James, Bobby Marchan, Maxine Brown, and Soloman Burke. But also here--and equally good--are sides by Larry Dale, Bobby Long, Hal Page & The Wailers, Buster Brown, and a number of others. And all feature Spruill's guitar work, whether it's a solo or his patented fills. Taken together this is the best look yet at Spruill's gut-bucket, tough guitar work--two discs--there was a single disc release (and I pounced on it) on the Night Train label a while back--and now very expensive. Also here are a few instrumentals by Spruill (check out "Hard Grind" or "Kansas City March") where he takes center stage and uses his time to lay down some pretty scorching solos on some raucous r&b sides.
For fans of period r&b from the 50's/60's--this should be near the top of your "to purchase" list. These are some of the toughest r&b sides from the period--even without Spruill--and his scratchy guitar work just amps up the sound and feel of these sides. He is often in the background, "scratching" away, but the tracks he solos on are unmistakeable. The sound is good for the era. The booklet has a short essay on Spruill and a track list. There's also a few good period photos of some of the more well known performers in the CD tray. This is a small unknown gem that's worth investigating for fans of some sometimes gritty, unfussy r&b.

KELLEY’S SOUL HEROES
A treasure trove of under-discovered soul – work recorded in New York and Detroit by producer Ernest Kelly – most of it appearing here on CD for the first time ever! Kelly may not be as well-known as some of his contemporaries, but he's got a long career that includes stints working on soul for Motown and Atlantic – plus an even bigger resume of recordings for a variety of indie labels. A good deal of that work is presented here – in a collection that shows that Kelly's got one heck of an ear for picking a great tune – especially the sort of tracks that balance strongly between Northern and sweet soul modes, with just the right elements of both! As usual with the Grapevine label, the set list is wonderful – sure to please the newcomer and collector both – and the package also features notes on each artists included. 2 tracks here have never been issued before, and the full CD features 25 tracks that include "You're Gonna Miss Me" by Cletus Marland, "The Story Of My Life" by Betty Bibbs, "My Little Baby" by Charles & Ivory, "Right In Your Own Back Yard" by Solid State, "We Found Love" by The Dynamics, "Spread Love" by Mike Jemison, "I Should Have Gone" by Al & Ray, "I'll Be Glad" by Ernest Sparks, "Two Lives" by Willie Collins, "Winter Is Much Too Long" by Cloe Martin, "Stay Here With Me" by Sandra Richardson, and "Think About It Girl" by Solid Solution. 9Dusty Groove)

CURTIS MAYFIELD - Curtis-Live! '71 @320
Curtis/Live! is, simply, one of the greatest concert albums ever cut on a soul artist, and one of the legendary live albums of all time. Cut in January of 1971 during four nights at The Bitter End (then Greenwich Village's leading music venue) in New York, the resulting double LP transcended any expectations in both its programming and execution -- Mayfield performed numbers off of the Curtis album ("[Don't Worry] If There's a Hell Below We're All Going to Go"), as well as exciting and urgent new versions of songs originally performed by the Impressions ("We're a Winner," "People Get Ready," "Gypsy Woman"), plus a very moving R&B version of "We've Only Just Begun." This is all beautifully stripped-down work by a quintet consisting of Mayfield (vocals, guitar), Craig McMullen (guitar), Tyrone McCullen (drums), "Master" Henry Gibson (percussion), and Joseph "Lucky" Scott (bass) -- a solid, intense performance, with quietly elegant guitar playing against a rock-solid rhythm section, as Impressions hits are rethought and reconfigured in a new context, and Mayfield's early solo repertory comes to life in newer, longer live versions. (Bruce Eder, Allmusic)
