Pearl Woods "Sippin' Sorrow" (With A Spoon) Rare & Unreleased New York City Rhythm and Blues 1958-1965

Tuff City/Night Train International is particularly proud to announce the release of Pearl Woods' "Sippin' Sorrow (with a Spoon)". Somehow these stellar gems from the classic R&B / rock 'n' roll era have slipped through the cracks of history. Able to master the broadest range of styles, Pearl Woods' records evoke Carole King, Esther Phillips and Tina Turner. Pearl Woods' music is a fine example of the excellent R&B and pop that bounced between Uptown's Harlem and Midtown's Tin Pan Alley. Sippin' Sorrow (With A Spoon) is the first and most comprehensive collection of Pearl Woods' music. Grammy Award winning audio engineer Ken Robertson digitally remastered these extremely rare and unreleased recordings. The CD contains a 12-page booklet with rare unpublished photos and comprehensive liner notes.

I remember hearing the Aretha Franklin version of "Let It Be" played on the radio before the Beatles released the song (it was the first recorded release of the song, on her "This Girl's In Love With You" album released in January 1970, according to Wikipedia.)

The DJ who played it, said it was a song from the Beatles upcoming "Get Back" album. (Which it originally was part of- but we ended up with the Let It Be album.)

Thanks Gyro/RYP for Pearl Woods comp, excellent stuff. Here are a couple of bonus tracks not on the CD.

Dot: Let The Good Things Start (flip of I Can't Wait) - 1956
Sue: Keep Your Business To Yourself - 1961 - be great to have the flip of this, I Loved You Too Much, if anyone has it. And to complete the picture - Pearl Woods with Horse Collar & The Funk 4 - Raindrop Blues on Styletone from 1970.

And just repeating an earlier request if anyone can help - It's Not Unusual LP - The Dells on VeeJay from 1965
