If "Pappy" Daily and Don Pearce had just given us George Jones, their place in history would be secure. George Jones has been one of the most significant country artist of the post-Hank Williams era and his career was nurtured on Starday. Daily and Pearce's finger-prints were all over the country and rockabilly map of the 1950s - whether it was Pearce working with the slick Bill McCall at 4 Star or running his Hollywood label, or Daily's keen eye for talent, launching Starday and the important D label. The duo split in 1958 with Daily producing Chantilly Lace by the ill-fated Big Bopper on D, while Pearce carried on with Starday, hitting the Top 10 with Frankie Miller, Cowboy Copas, Johnny Bond and Red Sovine.
In addition to creating the largest bluegrass catalogue throughout the 1950s and '60s, Starday was also known for its legendary rockabilly catalogue, an extensive Texas honky-tonk outpouring, classic gospel and sacred recordings and as a Nashville independent powerhouse studio and label.(Nathan Gibson, The Starday Story)

Here Come The Girls, Vol. 10; Girls Don't Come (CD1 + CD2)
Fifty-six songs by British female solo singers and girl groups, ranging from the Vernons Girls to Tammy St. John. The emphasis is on U.K. female soul singers (some with a kind of garage punk edge, check out Dee King and Jackie Trent), with a few digressions such as Petula Clark's French-language version of "Needles & Pins"; the producers have really beaten the bushes for good stuff all through this collection, offering unique-to-CD selections such as the Satin Bells' (aka the Three Bells) hot "Baby You're So Right for Me" and oddities like South African soul belter Sharon Tandy (who was later signed to Atlantic, no less, and cut at Stax), and one-shots like Dee King, doing "Sally Go 'Round the Roses," who managed to make their mark with but a single visit to the recording studio. Some of what's here is painfully conventional, such as the whiny adolescent lament "He's So Near" by Donna Douglas, and some of it is less soul-oriented than just plain romantic pop/rock (Shirley Abicair's "Am I Losing You"); and certain tracks, such as the Petula Clark numbers and "Some People" by Valerie Mountain and the Eagles, have appeared elsewhere. But where else can one find diamonds-in-the-rough like the Breakaways' "Your Kind of Love" and smooth early '70s pop-soul like "Then It Will Be" by Pickettywitch (one of the few acts here other than Petula Clark and Sandie Shaw to actually chart in America) The sound is excellent throughout and the annotation is reasonably thorough if not always as detailed as one might wish, and the price (around 20 dollars for a double CD) is perfect, for this is one of those collections that truly would cost thousands of dollars to assemble -- and an astonishing percentage of it is worth the effort. (Bruce Eder, Allmusic)
If you love female vocalists and pop rock tracks from the 1960's and early 1970's - you just have to own this series. While not every track is a forgotten gem, there are ZERO uninteresting tracks. Every track features heartfelt performances and great musicianship. From the Brill/Wall of Sound (alike) girly girl vocals of the early 1960's to Mersey pop beat to sunshiney pop to pop folk to the brassy belters of the 1960's - it's all fun, it's all cool and it's amazing how great and how most of it has been forgotten by 99% of music fans. This entire set deserves a beautiful box & book to go with it all and it's something everyone who loves pop & female singers absolutely have to own. (Shindig)

Mecca 45; Blackpool Mecca 45th Anniversary 1971-2016 (Outta Sight LP 2016)
A collection that celebrates a place you probably never visited – but in a way that hardly matters, given that the music is so great! The set looks at a different side of the UK soul scene than you might expect – not the upbeat 60s Northern Soul grooves, but instead some soaring 70s modern soul numbers that have a really warm, glowing vibe! The music here is upbeat, but not disco at all – and instead often features a deep soul singer over some well-crafted arrangements – sometimes with a bit of funk in the mix, sometimes a bit smoother overall. The cuts here are great – loads of numbers we'd never find otherwise – and titles include "I Need You" by Diane Jenkins, "Funny How We've Changed Places" by Debra Anderson, "Lady Lady Lady" by The Boogie Man Orchestra, "I Wanna Give You Tomorrow" by Benny Troy, "Nine Times" by The Moments, "Keep On Trying" by LTG Exchange, "I Don't Know What Foot To Dance On" by Kim Tolliver, "Ain't Nothing Like Your Love" by Charisma Band, and "Something Fishy Going On" by Universal Mind. © 1996-2017, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Rodney Crowell - Close Ties (2017)
Rodney Crowell’s new album, Close Ties, demonstrates his strengths as a songwriter and illustrates how he has learned to balance personal recollection, literary sophistication, and his profound musical reach. Close Ties is at once his most intimate record and his most accessible, the product of years of understanding the ways songs can enter—and be entered by—life. “It’s a loose concept album, you could say,” Crowell says. “And the concept is related to how you tell stories about yourself. Having a few years ago written a memoir, my sensibilities toward narrative—especially trying to find a common thread in different pieces of writing—had become a part of my songwriting process.” Close Ties is a roots record, in the sense that Crowell himself has deep roots that stretch back into the alternative country scene of the early seventies. The rise of Americana music has struck a nerve with Crowell. “I have declared my loyalty to Americana. It’s a hard category for people to get their heads around, or at least the terminology is. But all the people who represent it—Townes van Zandt, Guy Clark, Lucinda Williams, Steve Earle and more recent stars like John Paul White and Jason Isbell—share a common thread, and that thread is poetry. Whether they are actual poets or their music exemplifies a poetic sensibility, generally speaking, the Americana artist shuns commercial compromise in favor of a singular vision. Which resonates with me.” There is also a powerful undercurrent of the blues running through the record. “Recently, I think—I hope—that my study of the blues is starting to show up in my music. Those artists, whether it’s Lightnin’ Hopkins or John Lee Hooker or the acoustic Delta players, connected to something fundamental. With that in mind, I’m trying to move forward but also get back there.” (No Depression)

Ace Cannon - The Tuff Sax of Ace Cannon; Two Original Albums (Looking Back & Tuff Sax) (1962, Jasmine 2017)
Ace Cannon was and indeed is an immensely successful alto saxophonist who from the early 60s recorded a string of big selling instrumental albums.
Collected here are his first two LPs released in 1962. First up is 'Tuff-Sax' which consists of mainly blues and country standards and of course his huge 45 hit 'Tuff' which is featured in both its original 45 version and LP version, then comes 'Looking Back' which offers a more varied collection of revivals.
This is a superb collection of alto sax and a must for fans of jazz and pop music alike.
