Kim Weston "For The First Time" '67

A very groovy batch of uptown soul tracks, and one of the best records by Kim! Many of the tracks are covers of pop material, but the arrangements are pretty darn hip, with work by Melba Liston, Slide Hampton, Wade Marcus, and Thad Jones to keep things nice and groovy. Titles include "Walking Happy", "Beat Goes On", "In The Dark", "That's Life", "Free Again", and "Where Am I Going".  © 1996-2015, Dusty Groove, Inc.trax:
01 Where Am I going 02 Free Again 03 Everything In The World I love 04 When The Sun Comes Out 05 Walking Happy 06 The Beat Goes On 07 In The Dark 08 If You Go Away 09 Come Rain Or Come Shine 10 Come Back To Me 11 That's Life

THE YOUNGSTERS

The Youngsters were a Brazilian pre-Jovem Guarda band that helped shape the budding genre and would later provide the backing-band duties for several popular vocalists of the scene. The played a Latin-flavored mix of British Invasion beat rock & roll dotted with honkin’ R&B and twangy instro surf (more R&B on the first album, more beat rock on the second). Songs are about an even mix of English lyrics, Portuguese lyrics, and instrumentals, with several international hits of the day getting the Brazilian treatment. They may have more albums than this (it’s difficult to find good discographical information), so if anyone has other titles would you please consider sharing?

@Bill

I *think* I’ve got half of that “Broadway Sound Sessions” album you’re looking for. It looks like the material on that album was originally issued separately as Govan’s “I’m In Need” and Wright’s “Wounded Woman”. I’ve got a copy of the “Wounded Woman” remaster from earlier this year, the tracks are the same as the Broadway disc but I can’t tell you how different the remastered tracks might be from the originals (it was remastered for a Record Store Day limited vinyl pressing, and shortly thereafter issued on CD). I don’t have James Govan’s Broadway set, but I look forward to hearing it if anyone is able to share.

I do have Govan’s Fame recordings, if you’re interested – although it’s a full album of material, only two 45s were ever issued from these fabulous lost soul/R&B sessions of the late 60’s to early 70’s.

Thank you, LoFi Larry for the wealth of obscure sixties bands that you have recently been sharing. I can remember going into record stores with their bins upon bins filled with records of bands too numerous and obscure to remember. I usually had just enough pocket money to purchase one known band that I had gone into the store to buy and just enough extra to purchase something I had never heard of. Some, like Crowbar's "Bad Manors", were gems. Others; one listen and off to the used record store.
But with the advent of record shares on the Wide World Web of Music I'm finding some stuff that was truly remarkable but lacked distribution and record company hype. Thank you for keeping those alive. I've enjoyed each and every one of your shares.

Hi all you hunters and collectors of good music out there. I'm searching for Al Wilson's album "Weighing In" from 1973 in a decent quality. The link from BENTLEYFUNK's fantastic blog unfortunately doesn't work anymore and I couldn't find it anywhere else.
Maybe you could help me. Thanks in advance.
