The Persuaders "Thin Line Between Love And Hate" 1971

Thin Line Between Love & Hate is a landmark album – one of the greatest harmony soul albums of the early 70s! The title cut is one you'll know instantly – as "Thin Line Between Love & Hate" is one of those soul classics that never gets old – and the rest of the album's equally great, with a sublime mix of rough and sweet that the group was never able to duplicate again. The sound is incredible – with arrangements by Richard Poindexter, and backings by the group Young Gifted & Bad, who often use a bit of vibes behind the vocals, which makes for a really cool sound!

Derek Martin "Take Me Like I Am" The Roulette Recordings - 65-71

A massive discovery in soul from the 60s – rare work from singer Derek Martin – an ultra-sophisticated cat who recorded a number of singles for the Roulette label, but who never issued a full length set! This package is the first-ever to look at Martin's mighty talents – and it's a wonderful tribute to this singer, whose sound is almost beyond description. At one level, Derek seems to have the poise and class of Chicago icemen – like Jerry Butler or Walter Jackson – but at another, he's also got a deeper soul approach too – especially as he soars out on the more uptempo numbers on the set. The package features 21 Roulette singles by Martin, plus tracks originally intended for his unissued LP – and as an added bonus, the set also features 4 bonus tracks for the Buttercup label from the early 70s.

The Modulations "It’s Rough Out Here" '75 (2012 Expanded)

A righteous group soul classic from the 70s – the one and only album from The Modulations, and a lasting classic that almost beats the multiple album runs of some of their contemporaries! The group's a southern harmony quartet at their core, but they also get some really great backings on the set – a Philly vibe that really matches the best work from the Gamble & Huff stable, but with more of an indie vibe too – fitting for the Buddah Records placement of the set. The record features studio help from Norman Harris, Vince Montana, and Bobby Eli – whose work on the record helps link the style to the righteous grooves of groups like Soul Generation or True Reflection – both a good comparison to The Modulations too! Titles include "It's Rough Out Here", "I Found Love At Last", "Those Were The Best Days Of My Life", and "I'll Always Love You". (Original pressing – cover has a cut out hole and small promo sticker. One corner of the cover is slightly bumped. Vinyl is great!)  © 1996-2015, Dusty Groove, Inc.trax:

"Lights Out" The Doré Records Story 1958-1962

Doré Records was an American record label set up in 1958 in Los Angeles by Lew Bedell and Herb Newman. The label was an offshoot of Era Records and was designed to exploit the burgeoning rock'n'roll market. Lew Bedell continued to run Doré Records until shortly before his death in 2000. Although he was never to recapture the success of those heady years of the late Fifties and early Sixties, this compilation stands as a testimony to his abiding love of rock'n'roll music. (Record Runner)An offshoot of Lew Bedell and Herb Newman's Era Records (well documented on the CD "Era Northern Soul" [Kent 405 ]), Dore was created in 1958 purely for catering to the nascent rock 'n' roll market. Although the Teddy Bears (with Phil Spector) delivered one of the label's first (and best known) hits, To Know Him is To Love Him, in 1958, how successful the label was at tapping the rock 'n' roll market is open to debate. Most of the artists on this collection are obscure to most people who are not collectors; the names that stand out include Jan & Dean (who recorded their early sides, including Baby Talk, here), Billy Joe & the Checkmates (aka Ernie Freeman and friends), John & Judy (with John Walker, later of the Walker Brothers), The Raindrops, Johnny Day, and Tony Casanova. The music here is on the order of doo wop, pop, pop-rock 'n' roll, and pop country. Still, this set will appeal to aficionados of the label and early rock 'n' roll fans. (GMC)

"Schoolhouse Funk" Stage Bands, Lab Bands, & A Toast To The Boogie!

A compilation that truly defines the term "old school," Schoolhouse Funk takes diggin' in the crates a few steps further -- into high school auditoriums, gymnasiums, and talent shows. Yes, most of these '60s and '70s funk/jazz standards appear to come direct from the collections of proud parents. A gent by the name of Motorcycle John put this together in tribute to all the platters pressed up to raise funds for new instruments, carpeting in the band hall, etc. (Odds are good that there's some DJ Shadow involvement, as this was released through his Solesides label.) Rather than cut up the renditions into a turntablist melange, you get the whole deal. "Black Roots," "The World Is a Ghetto," and "Chameleon" each appear in full, hashed out by teenage amateurs, sometimes with surprising success. True, you might hear an unintentional Ayler homage here and there, and the version of "Cisco Kid" that's turned into a right-on double dutch chant might feature some strained upper registers, but the dedicated spirit is definitely present from top to toe. The MC interludes are a treat, too. The theme of the DHS Trojans' 1980 Spring Talent Show -- "A Toast to the Boogie" -- takes the subtitle of this compilation. Each of "the DHS Dancers" get a big intro from the boisterous MCs, replete with funky accompaniment (check the incidental raygun "piew-piew" zaps, last heard at a roller jam or the Gong Show episode of What's Happening). As expected, the dancers from the class of 1980 (seniors!!!) are the real crowd pleasers, emitting the biggest responses from the crowd. Don't worry -- the kids of 1981 and 1982 get their due, too. Other classic songs receiving recognition from these true "young lions": "Red Clay," "Camel Back," and a stone-cold "Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey." (Allmusic)

"Listen, Whitey!" The Sounds of Black Power 1967-1974

Some of the most righteous recordings ever issued – a rich batch of soul, funk, rock, and spoken word tracks from the boldest era of African American empowerment! The set does a great job of mixing together classic cuts and overlooked nuggets – all of which bring forth the message of the times with energy that's far more direct, and far more powerful than some of the more easygoing songs of the Civil Rights era – a musical shift that follows the cultural one documented in the book of the same title! The collection and notes are done by Pat Thomas – who wrote the Listen Whitey book – and he's done a really amazing job of picking just the right selections, and finding a way to make them all resonate together beautifully – in ways that only increase the focus and strength of their message. Titles incude "Free Bobby Now" by The Lumpen, "I Ain't Black" by Kain, "Free Huey" by Stokely Carmichael, "Invitation To Black Power (parts 1 & 2)" by Sahid Quintet, "Woman Of The Ghetto (live)" by Marlena Shaw, "Who Will Survive America" by Amiri Baraka, "Winter In America (solo version)" by Gil Scott Heron, "I Hate The White Man" by Roy Harper, "Dem Niggers Ain't Playing" by The Watts Prophets, "Tim Leary" by Eldridge Cleaver, and "Angela" by John Lennon & Yoko Ono.  © 1996-2015, Dusty Groove, Inc.Listen, Whitey! The Sounds of Black Power 1967-1974 takes its title from the B-side of a 1972 Folkways release -- a half-hour documentation of reactions to the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Anyone offended or amused by the title should consider what might prompt the exclamation. The disc was released around the same time as an accompanying 200-page book that is rich with photos, record-sleeve scans, and text. Much of the music covered in the book, such as Detroit's Tribe organization, Eddie Kendricks' People...Hold On, and Kuumba Toudie-Heath's Kawaida, does not appear on the disc, but there is a bounty of rare material, none of which should ever be inaccessible again. Three selections come from Motown subsidiary Black Forum, including Stokely Carmichael's "Free Huey" -- an excerpt from a 1968 speech that covers the genocide of Native Americans, defense of activist H. Rap Brown, and "patience with our people" as a means of empowerment -- and the phenomenal song "Until We're Free," recorded by Elaine Brown a year prior to her becoming the leader of the Black Panther Party. Many other prominent figures, including the in-exile Eldridge Cleaver and the pointedly humorous Dick Gregory, along with pioneering firebrand groups the Last Poets and Watts Prophets, are present with other highlights. Tributes to George Jackson and Angela Davis, from Bob Dylan and John & Yoko/Plastic Ono Band, as well as the un-ironic "I Hate the White Man" -- from English folk musician Roy Harper -- represent the contributions from non-black sources. This disc, containing a thick booklet full of images and illuminating text (provided by author and compiler Pat Thomas), is a crucial piece of U.S. history that is deeply resonant in the present. The same thing can be said of the book. (Allmusic)

Ebony Rhythm Band "Soul Heart Transplant" The Lamp Sessions '69

Heavy funk from the Indy scene of the late 60s – the lost album by one of the funkiest combos in the Midwest! Ebony Rhythm Band have an incredible sound that seems to take the heavy bottom of New Orleans Funk and merge it with the trippier elements of Detroit psychedelic soul – no surprise, considering they hailed from Indianapolis, a point about halfway between the two cities! The tracks on the set have a really great tripped-out groove – using lots of guitar and organ over heavy rhythms, in a style that's a bit like the Meters at times – but a lot freer flowing. The album features 2 tracks that formed the basis of one of the group's singles – plus a lot more that were never issued at the time, including a few by other incarnations of the combo! Titles include "Soul Heart Transplant", "Ode To Billie Joe", "Light My Fire", "Vanilla Fudge", "Get Yourself Together", "Drugs Ain't Cool", "Fool Am I", and "It's Too Late For Love". CD contains the bonus alternate version of "Light My Fire".  © 1996-2015, Dusty Groove, Inc.trax:

"Signifying" Funky Organ Grooves From The Big Apple 65-71

16 tasty tracks of soul jazz organ – played by some of the leading lights of the Prestige stable, like Jack McDuff, Freddie Roach, Trudy Pitts, and others! Very nice selection of tracks – and titles include "Trip On The Strip" by Stan Hunter & Sonny Fortune, "Soul Power" by Groove Holmes, "First Gravy" by Leon Spencer, "Johnny Hammond Boogaloo" by Johnny Hammond Smith, "Take Five" by Trudy Pitts, "Sing A Simple Song" by Charles Earland, and "Walk On By" by Jack McDuff. (Out of print.)  © 1996-2015, Dusty Groove, Inc.With 16 songs and 77 minutes of music, this compilation of 1965-71 Hammond organ soul-jazz from the Prestige vaults is not only excellent value, but so well-selected as to rate among the finest soul-jazz compilations. Jack McDuff is the only name that will be immediately familiar to many general listeners; most of the disc is dedicated to lesser-known talents in the same vein, including Johnny "Hammond" Smith, Richard "Groove" Holmes, Charles Earland, and more obscure names like Freddie Roach, Trudy Pitts, Don Patterson, and Leon Spencer. What elevates this above some similar anthologies is the focus upon cuts with really sharp, funky riffs, along with intelligent programming that provides a greater variety than you'll find on most soul-jazz comps. Highlights are hard to isolate in such strong company, but Trudy Pitts' suave run-through of "Take Five," Jack McDuff's propulsive "601 1/2 No. Poplar," Earland's furiously fast-paced "Milestones," and McDuff's incandescent version of "Walk On By" (arranged by Benny Golson) are standouts.

Jackie Wilson "You Got Me Walking" '71 (Brunswick LP)

One of Jackie Wilson's great little albums recorded on the Chicago scene – part of that key second chapter of his career, when he really started reinventing his sound with the groove of the Windy City! Wilson's working here with help from Chicago studio talents Rich Tufo, Carl Davis, Willie Henderson, and Eugene Record – and Jackie's voice is as sweet as ever, very well suited to the loping soul groove that Record and Davis were forging at Brunswick! Tracks include "The Girl Turned Me On", "Love is Funny That Way", "The Fountain", "You Got Me Walking", and "You Left The Fire Burning". Moves way past the cliches of earlier days, with many interesting applications of Jackie's unique vocals!  © 1996-2015, Dusty Groove, Inc.Produced by Chicago soul producer Carl Davis, You Got Me Walking was one of Jackie Wilson's best albums. As usual with Davis/Wilson collaborations, Motown's studio band the Funk Brothers were on hand to lay down their tight grooves. Written by the Chi-Lites' Eugene Record, the funky, loping single "You Got Me Walking" strutted up to number 22 R&B on Billboard's charts in early 1972. An earlier single, the tender "Love Is Funny That Way," charted in late 1971. Wilson's gospel roots are on full display on Record's rollicking, honking "The Fountain." Other standouts are the majestic "Forever and a Day," the swinging, brassy "Hard to Get a Thing Called Love," and the charting single "The Girl Turned Me On." (All music)

"Another Saturday Night" Classic Recordings from The Louisiana Bayous 1990

Loosely described as a Cajun compilation, the discerning listener will also detect some Rhythm & Blues, Two-Steps and Waltzes all of which is dominated by Ace Records' favourite instrument - the accordion!This was Oval's first album in 1974, and although we no longer control the rights to its material, Another Saturday Night belongs on our site as the first milestone in our journey. Almost all of the tracks were licensed from Jin and Swallow Records, an independent label based in Ville Platte, Louisiana, whose founder-owner Floyd Soileau made us very welcome on our scouting trip in 1972. At the time, there had never been an album released in the UK which combined French language Cajun music (featuring fiddles and accordions) with South Louisiana pop (sung in English and featuring saxophones, piano and electric guitar). In much the same way that the soundtrack album of The Harder They Come introduced a new audience to reggae, Another Saturday Night opened the door for UK listeners to the music of Louisiana. Biggest Hits: The song that attracted most interest was the Cajun version of Chuck Berry's 'Promised Land', sung by Johnnie Allan and featuring an accordion break by Belton Richard. Released as a single, 'Promised Land' was play-listed by several commercial stations including Capital Radio in London. By cruel coincidence, Elvis Presley's version of the same song was released a few weeks later to tie in with his fortieth birthday, and it was never going to be a fair fight. In 1980, we reissued Another Saturday Night with additional tracks. and put 'Promised Land' out as a single again, this time with 'Sweet Dreams' by Tommy McClain on the other side. Clyde Radio in Glasgow made 'Sweet Dreams' the theme music of a late night show, and we sold over 5,000 copies in that one city. Stiff Records joined us for one more try in 1983, and invited Johnnie to come over for a promotional trip. Once more, we came close to a hit, but never made it onto the charts. Total UK sales for 'Promised Land' over the ten years were over 20,000, while the album sold over 10,000 in the same period.

The Haywoods "Drinkin' Cryin' & Moanin'" (MONO) 1999 + "Rockin' By The Bay" 1998 EP

Following the release of a 4-song EP about a year ago, the debut album from the Santa Cruz-based Haywoods is a strong example of the energetic hillbilly-influenced brand of rockabilly tending to predominate on the West Coast during much of the past decade.With most of the album's 14 songs written by lead vocalist Chad Silva and lead guitarist Johnny Munnerlyn, the band seems particularly fond of the classic Sun records of the '50's. Silva's vocals and songs, in particular, are more than a little reminiscent of the late Carl Perkins, with the occasional nod to other Sun vets such as Johnny Cash ("Broken Hearted," in structure, if not in sound), Warren Smith and Billy Lee Riley. Bassist Rich D'Amore and drummer Rick Tahira provide a rock-solid rhythm section, particularly on the Munnerlyn's instrumental "Chicken Lickin'." - Reviewed by Jon Johnson

Jackie Wilson "This Love Is Real" '70 (Brunswick LP)

Wonderful work from Jackie Wilson's years on the Chicago scene – a time when the singer was able to really find a way to put his excellent vocals to great new use – stretching out here with sublime production from Carl Davis, and backings from the great Willie Henderson! In his early years, Jackie's vocals were great, but the setting wasn't always perfect – yet by the time of his classic album, he's definitely corrected that lack – by working with some sublime studio talents, and a host of great songwriters too. The tunes have this hip style that really lets Wilson loose – not entirely in Curtom mode, but maybe with some of the more mature themes that were also showing up in the work of Gene Chandler or Jerry Butler at the time. Titles include the sublime hit "This Love Is Real (I Can Feel Those Vibrations)" – plus "Think About The Good Times", "Love Changed Her Face", "Say You Will", "Love Uprising", "Let This Be A Letter (To My Baby)", and "Don't Leave Me".  © 1996-2015, Dusty Groove, Inc.By the time of the release of This Love Is Real, it seemed that Chicago soul producer Carl Davis had the hit formula for Jackie Wilson down pat. He'd recruit Motown's James Jamerson, Earl Van Dyke, Benny Benjamin, and the rest of the Funk Brothers and combine their dynamic interplay with a top-notch song from his stable of talented songwriters. It had worked with Wilson's comeback hit "Higher and Higher and was still working some three years later. The effervescent single "(I Can Feel Those Vibrations) This Love Is Real" charted on Billboard in late 1970, becoming a steppers classic. The pop ballad "Love Is Funny That Way" broke the R&B Top 20. Wilson's impressive vocal prowess is showcased on "Let This Be a Letter (To My Baby)" and "Love Uprising," both written by the Chi-Lites' Eugene Record. The ethereal "Think About the Good Times" features an outstanding instrumental break that features fluid wah-wah guitar, dazzling bass runs, and otherworldly sound effects supplied by engineer Bruce Swedien.

Jackie Wilson "Higher And Higher" '67 (Brunswick Mono LP)

Driven by Jackie Wilson's biggest latter-day hit, "(Your Love Keeps Lifting Me) Higher and Higher," this 1967 LP offers great performances (from vocalist and band) and a variety of material. Though original LPs surely aren't the best place to start for Wilson, fans of the nearly irresistible Brunswick sound will find much here to like, from the propulsive "You Can Count on Me" and "Open the Door to Your Heart" to the classy Impressions-style "When Will Our Day Come" and the ballad "Those Heartaches." Wilson's performances are excellent as usual, making Higher and Higher one of the better original albums of his career. (Allmusic)A wonderful little album from Jackie Wilson – one that helped him redefine his sound and save his career! Jackie's earlier work for Brunswick was a mish-mash of styles that ranged from raw R&B to smooth supper-club jazz to silly novelty numbers, all of which had gotten pretty stale by the mid 60s. Elsewhere at Brunswick, though, things were really popping during the time – as Carl Davis was turning the label's Chicago offices into a hotbed of soul, forged in the newer hipper styles of the Chisoul scene. Davis got Wilson into the Chicago scene for this album – had him working with arranger Sonny Sanders and director Gerald Sims – to create a wonderful batch of strident soul tunes that perfectly embody the loping Chisoul groove that was Davis' real legacy in soul music during the 60s. The prime example of this is the title cut "(Your Love Keeps Lifting Me) Higher & Higher" – which became a runaway hit that put Wilson back on the map I the soul business. The rest of the album's just as great, though, and includes loads of solid numbers like "Soulville", "I've Lost You", "Those Heartaches", and "I'm The One To Do It". (Dusty Groove)

"The Story Of Brunswick" - The Classic Sound Of Chicago Soul

Great compilation covering the years 1957 (Jackie Wilson's fantastic "Reet Petite") to 1975 (The Chi-Lites "You Don't Have To Go"). The musical genres covered range from early R'n'B, big band jazz, bluesy rock, pop-soul, out and out disco, sweet soul & funky stuff. Many will know of Lionel Hampton (jazz vibes player from the big band era) Little Richard & Count Basie but may be surprised to see them on what became known as a 'soul music' label. More obvious artists include Gene Chandler with his catchy "Nothing Can Stop Me" and his distinctive voice and Jackie Wilson's classic "Higher & Higher" and "Sweetest Feeling". Barbara Acklin contributes several nice 'pop soul' tracks such as "Am I The Same Girl" covered by Swing Out Sister in the early 90s. She also, whilst working as a receptionist at Brunswick, co-wrote several massive hits for the label's top selling act The Chi-Lites, including their massive hits "Have You Seen Her". "Too Good To Be Forgotten" and "You Don't Have To Go". Out and out 'foot stomping' disco music came from Hamilton Bohannon & is represented here by 2 tracks including "Disco Stomp", with its powerful beat & striped down sound. Its hard to see an obvious 'Chicago Sound' but this double CD contains 45 tracks all of which are listenable & some of which are simply great like "Son Of A Preacher Man" by Erma Franklin completely up staging Dusty Springfield! A very entertaining & informative collection, well worth buying. (MJ King, Dusty Groove)

The Spinners "2nd Time Around" '70

Pre-Philly magic from The Spinners – a wonderful early album recorded for Motown – done with a heady Detroit sound that's quite different than their later work in the 70s! The album already has the group sounding amazing on the harmonic tip – definitely a cut above the groups that came before them – with that brilliant Spinners ability to harmonize heavily while still hitting a groove! Arrangements are by Paul Riser, Wade Marcus, and David Van DePitte – all of whom keep things full, but never overblown – presenting music with a perfect polish for the group, but in quite different ways than the later Philly groove. Titles include the classic original version of "It's a Shame", plus "My Lady Love", "Souly Ghost", "Ooh Child", "In My Diary", "My Whole World Ended", "I've Got To Find Myself A Brand New Baby", "Bad Bad Weather", and "Pay Them No Mind".  © 1996-2015, Dusty Groove, Inc.The Spinners' 2nd Time Around (1970) was actually their debut long-player for the short-lived V.I.P. subsidiary of Motown Records. The "Second Time" referred to in the title indicates the quintet's new direction, which was considerably funkier than the group's former R&B persona. The album likewise marked the final contributions of G.C. Cameron, who himself was the latest in a line of replacements that began when George W. Dixon made way for Edgar "Chico" Edwards in 1961. However, by the time the combo had become part of the Motown roster, Edwards' spot was filled by Cameron. The Stevie Wonder-penned "It's a Shame" became The Spinners' first Top 20 hit of the decade. It paved the way for the torrent of soul-pop crossovers that would follow with the arrival of Philippe Wynne in 1972 and the band's fortuitous collaborations with Thom Bell. There are definitely sounds and shapes of things to come throughout, including the effortlessly traded lead vocals on "It's a Shame," "(She's Gonna Love Me) At Sundown," and the testifying groove during "Souly Ghost." They also demonstrate their substantial harmonies on "Together We Can Make Such Sweet Music" and their particularly poignant blends on "Bad, Bad Weather (Till You Come Home)," "Pay Them No Mind," and especially the midtempo ballad "My Lady Love," which could be mistaken for the Temptations in their mid-'60s prime. "O-o-h Child" -- which the Windy City-based Five Stairsteps took to the Top Ten in June of '70 -- is given a distinctly Motown vibe, bearing the sonic earmarking of noted Hitsville U.S.A. arranger Paul Riser. "In My Diary" is a throwback to the Spinners of old, with a nod to their carefully crafted doo wop style and suitably matched string section. A further comparison to the vintage Temptations is inevitable as The Spinners' take of "My Whole World Ended (The Moment You Left Me)" equals -- if not possibly surpasses -- David Ruffin's more familiar version, and students of the Motown sound should keep listening for Jack Ashford's propulsive percussion. 2nd Time Around closes with a medley of "Can Sing a Rainbow" and "Love Is Blue," a pairing that initially surfaced on the Dells' Love Is Blue LP, which they took into the Top 30 pop survey in June of 1969.

Allen Toussaint "The Wild Sound of New Orleans Piano" '58

These dozen sides represent Allen Toussaint's earliest solo recordings for RCA Records circa 1958. Toussaint was essentially discovered by Danny Kessler -- an early version of what would now be considered an A&R man. It was during another artist's studio time -- featuring Toussaint as the accompanying pianist -- that Kessler first heard and approached Toussaint to prepare a few instrumentals of his own. On January 29, 1958, Toussaint (piano) was joined by a local crew that included Alvin "Red" Taylor (baritone sax), Nat Perrilliat (tenor sax) or Lee Allen (tenor sax), either Justin Adams (guitar) or Roy Montrell (guitar), Frank Fields (bass), and Charles "Hungry" Williams (drums). As intimated above, the precise personnel has long been debated. Kessler produced an outing that yielded the infectiously up-tempo blues "Whirlaway" and the Ray Charles-inspired gospel-meets-barrelhouse-meets-swing title "Happy Times." Kessler turned the pair into a locally successful single and was so encouraged by the results, less than a month later the same assemblage gathered to record the remainder of what would be the Wild Sound of New Orleans (1958). The soulful "Up the Creek" is a dark waltz with Toussaint's stirring keyboard runs emphasizing the haunting refrain. On the opposite side of the emotive spectrum, the hearty "Tim Tam" is impelled by Williams' hard and heavy backbeat with Allen blowing his lungs out. Another contrast follows with the whimsical "Me and You." The melody is decked out with a classy early 20th century pop standard feel, while all the more striking is the percussive accompaniment replicating a tap-dancer doing an old soft shoe. Immediately, Toussaint's expressive keyboarding on "Bono" and "Nashua" give props to the performance style of Professor Longhair before settling into their respectively catchy, mid-tempo rhythms. The horns have plenty of room to strut their proverbial stuff and the syncopation of the latter immediately brings Mardi Gras to mind. Perhaps the best-known tune among the lot is the jaunty "Java," which took on new life thanks to a chart-topping remake by Al Hirt. The trumpeter turned it into his unofficial theme song, ultimately making a 30-plus-year career out of it. "Wham Tousan" and "Pelican Parade" each quickly rev up to full throttle with the saxes taking on and going head-to-head with Toussaint's rollicking runs up and down the 88s.

Bernard Purdie "Purdie Good" '71 + "Shaft" '73

This two-fer reissue of his two 1971 solo albums Purdie Good/Shaft is a pounding demonstration of why Bernard "Pretty" Purdie was considered one of the premier "funky drummers" of the late 1960s and early 1970s. The set opens with a cracklin' cover of James Brown's standard "Cold Sweat" and includes other pop covers such as "Everybody's Talkin'" and a thumping, purely instrumental version of Isaac Hayes' "Theme From Shaft," with a dash of reggae sun splashed in from "Montego Bay." According to the liner notes (the originals from Purdie Good), Purdie patterned the bands on this release (which included pianists Harold Wheeler and Neal Creque, guitarists Billy Nichols, Ted Dunbar and Lloyd Davis, bassist Norman Edwards and Norman Pride on congas) after the soul/rock stylings of Blood Sweat & Tears. If that's truly the case, the collection pulsates and burns with soul/rock fire that thoroughly and absolutely eclipses Purdie's original inspiration. This is the sound of funky jazz from the end of the 1960s, so funky and swinging it just about dares you to stand still and not dance. (Allmusic)2 funky classics from the legendary Pretty Purdie! Purdie Good is Bernard Purdie's first album as a leader for Prestige – cut right after he'd hipped up plenty of other sessions for the label with his famous funky drums! The groove here is very much in the best Prestige jazz funk mode of the early 70s – tightly vamping rhythms that draw heavily from Purdie's monstrous drums – and which also offer solo showcase space for Harold Wheeler on electric piano, Ted Dunbar on guitar, Tippy Larkin on trumpet, and Charlie Brown and Warren Daniels on tenor. Rhythm is augmented by Gordon Edwards on Fender bass and Norman Pride on congas – and the grooves hit a variety of modes that show that Purdie could sometimes be a more open-thinking rhythmatist than his funky contemporary Idris Muhammad. Titles include great instrumental versions of "Cold Sweat" and "Montego Bay", plus the originals "Wasteland", "You Turn Me On", and "Purdie Good". Shaft is a full funky session from master drummer Bernard Purdie – a set that expands out his previous Prestige vibe, and almost goes for a soundtrack scope to match the record's Shaft title! The set leads off with a great take on the Isaac Hayes hit – one that follows in the same fully-flowing, slow-building mode as Ike's – but which comes across here as an instrumental with some great solo work from Houston Person – playing here almost in a Stanley Turrentine sort of mode! Other tracks continue the hip mix of jazz and larger backings – and feature a lineup of players that includes Neal Creque on electric piano, Gerry Thomas and Danny Moore on trumpets, Willie Bridges and Houston Person on tenors, Billy Nichols and Lloyd Davis on guitars, Gordon Edwards on Fender bass, and Norman Pride on congas. The sound is warm without ever sounding too smooth – and Purdie's funky drums at the bottom ensure that most tunes are nicely lively. (Dusty Groove)

Allen Toussaint "From A Whisper To A Scream" '70

Kent Soul has done an exceptional job in remastering and reissuing Allen Toussaint's classic sophomore long-player -- which was known simply as Allen Toussaint -- and the "bonus" selection, a vocal-less blues-meets-funk titled "Number Nine." When these songs first surfaced circa 1970, Toussaint (piano/vocals) had become a decade-long veteran of the New Orleans' Crescent City soul movement. Under his own name as well as the pseudonym of Naomi Neville, he was a composer, producer, and even a recording session musician. He left a trail of influential R&B titles that would resound back across the pond in the form of cover versions by the likes of the Rolling Stones ("Pain in My Heart"), the Yardbirds ("A Certain Girl"), and the Who ("Fortune Teller"), along with countless others. Toussaint's uncanny musical malleability resulted in a diverse yet solid second solo outing. He is supported by Mac Rebennack (organ/guitar) (aka Dr. John), Terry Kellman (guitar), Eddie Hohner (bass), Freddie Staehle (drums), John Boudreaux (drums), Clyde Kerr (trumpet), Earl Turbinton (alto sax), and none other than Merry Clayton (backing vocals) and Venetta Fields -- perhaps the most in demand studio voices of the rock & roll era. The dramatic "From a Whisper to a Scream" perfectly captures the synergy existing between Toussaint's ultra cool delivery and the understated yet piercing lyrical indictment. Other highlights include the pop-oriented, upbeat, and classy "Sweet Touch of Love," the author's interpretation of "Everything I Do Gonh Be Funky" and "Working in the Coalmine." The latter pair were likewise formerly charting sides Toussaint had inked for vocalist Lee Dorsey. Looking forward to the ensuing years, Toussaint garnered sizable clout for providing Bonnie Raitt with "What Is Success." The instrumentals "Either" and "Louie" foreshadow the type of stylish no-nonsense soul that informed his collaborations with the Meters. "Pickles" on the other hand is comparatively jazzier and doused in the revelry of Mardi Gras, complete with a catchy call-and-response. Finally, Toussaint's masterful touch and craftsman-like imprint is evident on the uplifting take of Vince Guaraldi's "Cast Your Fate to the Wind" as he explores alternate textures that lead the melody to some memorable places. While his mid-'70s platters for Warner Brothers may have provided him with additional exposure, this is a sonic touchstone worth repeated examinations. (Lindsay Planer , Allmusic)

R.B.Greaves "R.B.Greaves" (Atco LP 1969)

The amazing debut of RB Greaves – a soul singer with a difference! RB struck big with this album on late 60s Atlantic Records – yet despite production at Muscle Shoals, and arrangements from Arif Mardin, the sound here is quite different than most of his contemporaries – and certainly not the southern soul you'd expect! Instead, Greaves goes for a crackling quality that really showcases his trans-American roots – a vibe that's almost like Johnny Nash at points, and has a similar way of embracing a whole host of different sounds at one time – not just late 60s soul, but some other undercurrents of pop, and even some occasional folksy or island flavors as well. The album's standout hit is the legendary "Take A Letter Maria" – a cut that broke big on both sides of the tracks, and which is one of the most compelling story songs of the time. Other tunes include "This is Soul", "Ballad Of Leroy", "Ain't That Good News", "Home To Stay", and "Birmingham Alabama”(Dusty Groove)trax:

S.O.U.L. "What Is It" '71 + "Can You Feel It" '72

Incredible work from a group who've definitely earned their name! Naming a group SOUL might be suicide for a band that can't carry off the groove – but these guys are funky monsters, with a real talent for a hard heavy sound that was rarely matched by other combos. The band have a great drummer, with a good talent for the funky break, but also a jazzy flourish that works well on SOUL's mellower numbers – and apart from the usual bass and guitar riffing, the album also features some great funky flute, in a mode that's similar to some of Jeremy Steig's excellent early work. Some tracks have vocals and some have instrumentals – and both albums are great! ACE put together both these masterpieces of heavy funky grooves and laid them back to back on one CD of super-heavy funky tracks. The set's a great deal, and both albums are winners all the way through! Tracks include "Down in the Ghetto", "Burning Spear", "Soul", "Tell it Like It Is", "Peace Of Mind", "My Cherie Amour", and "Sleeping Beauty".  © 1996-2015, Dusty Groove, Inc.

"The Best Of Queen Records 1945-1947"

Early jive based boogie blues from the label that was the precursor to the mighty KING label out of Cincinatti...Fine collection of jump blues, R&B and a bit of jazz recorded for Syd Nathan's Queen label between 1945 and 1947. Syd had started the legendary King label in 1943 to issue recordings of country music. Realizing there was also a market for black music he started the Queen label in 1945. In 1945 he folded Queen into KIng and reissued many of the Queen titles on King with the same numbers. Artists featured here include two bluesmen who got their start in the 1930s - Jimmie Gordon and Johnny Temple. The indefatigable Slim Gaillard is here with three tracks including the unusual but fascinating Travelin' Blues. The Al (Stomp) Russell Trio has the nice topical blues World War 2 Blues with fine vocals and mellow guitar work from Joel Cowan. Other artists include Robie Kirk, David Green (an early reference to "Jodie"), Harry Dial & His Bluesicians, Charlie White & His Orch. (the jivey Pots And Pans +1), Deacon Lem Johnson, The Jubalaires (smooth vocal group), Gay Crosse & His Orch and others. Quite a few of the tracks are pretty "tame" but there is much to enjoy. Sound quality is decent and there is full discographical data though no notes. (FS)

Freda Payne "Unhooked Generation" The Complete Invictus Recordings (1969-1973)

Killer soul from Freda Payne – one of the first new powerhouses of the 70s soul scene! Freda broke big early on with the hit "Band Of Gold" – and she was a heck of a talent who worked for Holland-Dozier-Holland's Invictus label to craft some sublime soul gems that ranged from funky grooves to mellow ballads to classy groovers, and a lot more! This 41 track set features all of Freda's recordings for the Invictus label – tunes cut between the years 1969 and 1973, easily her best period – and a great fold-out booklet with notes, discography, and rare photos! Titles include funky classics like "Unhooked Generation" and "The Easiest Way To Fall" – plus loads of other great numbers like "Deeper And Deeper", "Band Of Gold", "Misery's Favorite Child", "Reaching Out", "Goodbye", "Through The Memories Of My Mind", "Two Wrongs Can't Make A Right", "Rock Me In The Cradle", "Love On Borrowed Time", "You Brought The Joy", "Just A Woman", and "He's In My Life".  © 1996-2015, Dusty Groove, Inc.Freda Payne was one of the great female soul singers of the early '70s -- her voice was powerful enough to rank highly among her contemporaries, but what set her apart was her daring material, its consistency, and the wonderful, ambitious production given her by the Invictus label. All of this is apparent on a mere single-disc collection, but for the best appreciation of the full scope of her achievements, the 41-track collection Unhooked Generation: The Complete Invictus Recordings is necessary for any serious soul collection. Though this is a lot to ingest at once, part of the reason for that is that it's dense, layered music; there's a lot going on in the lyrics and music is busy, filled with glorious details that help elevate this music ahead of much of the soul music of the time. As her biggest hits suggest, Payne pushed the subject material of soul further: "Band of Gold" dealt with a marriage falling apart because of male impotence; "Bring the Boys Home" was an anti-Vietnam protest song. This hints at what's covered on the rest of her albums for Invictus, all available here. What's remarkable is how Payne and her team of writers sound fearless throughout these recordings, pushing the boundaries of contemporary soul forward -- even if the songs don't cover new thematic ground, or are merely good generic pieces, there's something in the arrangement, production, or performance that elevates it above its peers. So, while this is a lot of music, it's worth exploring -- music this rich deserves such an exhaustive, loving presentation and any serious soul fan will be well-served by acquiring this.

Frederick Knight "I've Been Lonely For So Long" (1973 Stax)

Southern soul rarely if ever sounded so, so good. Simultaneously smooth and raw, “Lonely” has an immediacy that hits you where you live and then sticks around for a little while, taking up space on your sofa.
Frederick Knight’s catchy “I’ve Been Lonely for So Long” was a sizable RB hit on Stax in 1972, and he wrote and produced Anita Ward’s across-the-board smash “Ring My Bell” in 1979. Knight cut his own “I’ve Been Lonely for So Long” in Birmingham, Alabama with a seasoned southern soul crew behind him, and hit again in 1975 with “I Betcha Didn’t Know That.”
Mr. Knight uses his fine falsetto to best effect on the title song, which made it to #8 in the R&B charts in 1972. He also plays piano, organ, drums and percussion all over this self-produced 1973 Stax reissue. The album has plenty of fine songs. “ I Let A Chance Go By” is a wonderful mid-tempo look at regret and misery. Could it be a woman making Frederick so unhappy? Possibly. The vaguely doo-wopish ‘Now That I’ve Found You” is also worth a play or ten. Knight can manage funky, too, as he does on “Your Love’s All Over Me/ Take Me On Home Witcha/ Pick ‘Um Up, Put ‘Um Down”. His cover of ‘Someday We’ll Be Together” is great.
Frederick Knight was one of the many crooning Soul singers that signed to Stax. The title cut is a perfect example of his style with its light and catchy air led by Knight’s singing and the guitar. Trouble is in a similar vein. On the other hand, Friend and Lean On Me show a down home southern Soul feel to them, while ‘Take Me On Home Witcha” and “I Let My Change Go By” are more upbeat numbers. There’s also “Your Love’s All Over Me” and “Pick Um Up, Put Um Down” that get a little funky, especially the former track that has a little James Brown in it. Knight is even able to add his how style to the Motown song “Someday We’ll Be Together” that ends the album. The funky numbers are an added bonus, but it’s really the Soul of the record that holds its value. (The Vinyl Hound)Singer/keyboardist/songwriter/producer Frederick Knight (born in Birmingham, Alabama on August 15, 1944) registered three times on the national R&B charts, with one Billboard Pop Hot 100 cross-over in addition to one other on the Billboard Pop Hot 100 Bubble Under listings. Finding them all in one quality CD is, however, impossible, likely because they involve 3 different labels.

As a recording artist, Knight cut Throw The Switch for Mercury in 1970 but it never was released. He then recorded Have A Little Mercy (On Me) and Sauerkraut for Bill Lowery's Atlanta-based 1-2-3 Records that same year, but despite a distribution arrangement with the giant Capitol, it went nowhere when paired as 1-2-3 P-1724. Two years later he hooked up with the Memphis-based Stax Records, now owned by Al Bell, and in his first release took a song he had co-written called I've Been Lonely For Too Long to # 8 R&B/# 27 Hot 100 in the April-June stretch of 1972 as Stax 0117 b/w a cover of the Bill Withers hit Lean On Me. A month later another of his co-compositions, Trouble, just missed the Hot 100 at # 102 Bubble Under as Stax 0139 b/w his self-penned Friend.

All that earned him the 1973 album "I've Been Lonely Too Long" (Stax STS-3011) which is what you see here converted to CD format in 1991. All 4 sides of those two chart entries are included, as are both sides of the failed This Is My Song Of Love To You b/w Take Me On Home Witcha as Stax 0167 (both sides again co-written/written by Knight). In April 1974, Stax combined another album track, I Let My Chance Go By, with a new cut, Suzy (written by Knight) as Stax 0201, but it too failed to create national interest. Musicians/vocalists heard on the album are lead/rhythm guitarist Jesse Carr, rhythm guitarist Jerry Weaver, acoustic guitarist Glen Wood, baritone saxophonist Ronnie Eades, tenor saxophonists Aaron Varnell (also percussionist) and Harvey Thompson, trumpeter Harrison Calloway, bassists Aaron Varnell, Randy Carmichael and Jesse Boyce, pianist/organist Herbert Ivey (in addition to Knight himself), drummers Eddie Massey, Freeman Brown and, again, Knight himself, and backing vocalists Aaron Varnell, The Excavations and Sam Dees.

In June, Knight was switched to the Stax subsidiary, Truth Records, for the release of Passing Thru b/w Sometimes Storm (Truth TRA-3202) which flopped, but in March-April 1975 he made it to # 27 R&B with I Betcha Didn't Know That as Truth TRA-3216 b/w Let's Make A Deal. That was followed by the failed I Wanna Play With You b/w I Miss You as Truth TRA-3228. Knight had a hand, or wrote, all 6 sides. By this time Stax was on shaky ground, and after the label folded Knight and his friend Clinton Harris launched their own Juana Records, and from 1976 to 1982 Frederick wrote for and produced the 7 charting sides registered by The Controllers, a quartet from his native Alabama, as well as the two by Anita Ward, including her monster # 1 Pop (2 weeks) and # 1 R&B (5 weeks) Ring My Bell.

He also released 4 of his own, only one of which, a cover of the Barry Manilow Pop hit The Old Songs, managed to chart at # 74 R&B in Nov 1981 b/w Bundle Of Love as Juana 3700. The 3 that failed were Sit Down On You Love b/w Staying Power (Juana 3415 in 1978), Let Me Wring Your Bell Again b/w When It Ain't Right With My Baby (Juana 1948 in 1980), and You're The Best Thing In My Life b/w When Will Love Need Me? (Juana 1300 in 1982). Knight co-wrote or wrote them all except You're The Best Thing In My Life and The Old Songs. (The Soul Detective)

Sidney Joe Qualls "I Don't Do This" (1974 Brunswick)

Classic work from this massively overlooked 70s soul singer! The set's one of a rare few albums cut by Sidney Joe Qualls – a fantastic talent who's probably better known for his work behind the scenes, and as a songwriter, than he is as a voice on his own. The session is produced with a style that kind of mixes Brunswick Chicago soul with rootsier southern elements – stepping proud in the 70s territory of Johnnie Taylor or Tyrone Davis, but sounding way way better here, and with a much more independent vibe. Plus, the album boasts some incredible material – original tunes written by the likes of Sam Dees, Clifford Davis, George Davis, and others. Titles include "Shut Your Mouth", "Run To Me", "I Enjoy Loving You", "Please Help Me", "Can't Get Enough of Your Love", and "The Next Time I Fall in Love".

The Golden Gate Quartet "Travelin' Shoes" (1937-1939 Bluebird)

Bluebird's Travelin' Shoes is a terrific collection that contains 25 tracks the Golden Gate Quartet recorded between 1937 and 1939. During those years, the group was at their peak, and their a cappella harmonies proved to be quite influential on successive generations of gospel singers, as they had enough foresight to add jazz and blues inflections to their harmonies. There's no better place to judge their greatness than this splendid collection. (Allmusic)The most lovingly compiled introduction to the Golden Gate Quartet's refined, "jubilee"-style a cappella music, Travelin' Shoes concentrates on the group's artistic apex--recordings made between 1937 and 1939 for Bluebird. Formed out of a combined interest in popular glee-club-style singing acts such as the Mills Brothers as well as the slave-era spiritual and other folk-music forms, the quartet's unique, bluesy synthesis would later influence much of popular and sacred music. Their jazzed-up spirituals ("Motherless Child") and life-affirming secular selections ("My Walking Stick") featured intricately entwined, smooth but expressive vocalizing. The music remains enrapturing to this day. The bass voice's constant, bouncy tones propel the group forward ("Hide Me in Thy Bosom") as the others' voices lock in brilliant harmony ("Travelin' Shoes") and impersonate trumpets ("I Heard Zion Moan") or steam engines ("Golden Gate Gospel Train"). The Golden Gates were also consummate storytellers, as the revved-up, syncopated take on "Job" easily demonstrates. The group would later achieve widespread recognition--performing at Franklin Delano Roosevelt's inauguration (marking them the first African American group to appear at Constitution Hall). Like many of the United States' best black musicians, the quartet found a better reception in Europe and moved to the Continent permanently in 1958, continuing to perform with a selection of different singers up through the 1990s. By all means, check out Travelin' Shoes to hear the fascinating jubilee gospel act that so rocked FDR's boat. --Mike McGonigal

"More Delicious Spaghetti Western" 2000

Sequels to popular instrumental compilations often fall prey to the law of diminishing returns, but More Delicious Spaghetti Western proves an exception to that rule. In fact, this compilation of cues from spaghetti western soundtracks manages to improve on its predecessor because it offers a wider selection of composers and film scores. Although its track listing ignores crucial Sergio Leone classics like A Fistful of Dollars and Once Upon a Time in the West, More Delicious Spaghetti Western still manages to present a pretty comprehensive selection of important composers who contributed to this genre. Most importantly, this album includes four tracks by Ennio Morricone, the king of the spaghetti western film score. The best of these tracks are "Il Mio Nome E Nessuno," a flute-led instrumental that blends gentle acoustic guitar accompaniment with a sprightly, playful choral arrangement, and "Vamos A Matar Companeros," a rousing and fast-paced track that is built around Spanish choral vocals but throws in a humorous, head-spinning instrumental break that trots out every spaghetti western soundtrack device in the book (reverbed electric guitar, wailing voices, martial horn blasts, etc.). More Delicious Spaghetti Western also illustrates how musically diverse this style of music could be within its stylistic constraints: "Una Ragione Per Vivere E Una Per Morire" applies militaristic elements that would be at home in a war movie (drum corps-like percussion, reveille-style horns) into its western style, and "Sartana" grafts spaghetti western guitar work onto an organ-driven melody that owes more to 1960s lounge pop than it does to traditional western movie music. All in all, More Delicious Spaghetti Western is a strong and catchy collection music that will appeal to soundtrack lovers and lounge music fanatics alike. (Allmusic)
