The Ikettes, fed up with not being compensated for placing "Peaches and Cream," "I'm So Thankful" and other recordings on the charts, defected from Ike Turner's camp and began recording as the Mirettes since Turner owned the name Ikettes. The soulful, leggy ladies' rendition of "In the Midnight Hour" claimed a spot on the R&B charts, as did their passionate "Take Me for a Little While." They treat you to the funkiest version of "On the Good Ship Lollipop" ever heard. They also cover "Somewhere" and the rocker "To Love Somebody." Original songs such as "The Real Thing," "I'm a Whole New Thing," "First Love" and "Keep on Running" pad the LP. (Andrew Hamilton, Allmusic)

Thanks for the Mirettes - I never knew they were previously The Ikettes!
Thank you very much for the Mirettes.
Clash.....Thanks for the Coltrane very much!!! I don't know how I missed him all these years but I'm diggin' it now! I'd like to find his earliest releases also.

Thanks for the Coltrane One Up, One Down - it's a much needed upgrade for me.
Thanks for the Capital Soultown Bill. Some cracking tunes that out-weigh some of the slightly odd choices ;) Good enough to send me looking for the first volume. Anyone?
