The "5" Royales "Catch That Teardrop" (1960-1965)

1960-1964 "HOME OF THE BLUES" LABEL SIDES... THIS IS SOME OF THE FINEST EARLY SOUL RECORDINGS MADE... STINGING GUITAR FROM LOMAN PAULING, SOULFUL VOCALS FROM THE GROUP & KILLER SONGS... THIS IS A TOTAL WINNER!!!...
Following in the footsteps of Ace's earlier retrospective of the 5 Royales' best 1950s King recordings ("It's Hard But It's Fair") comes this equally essential collection that chronicles their activities in the early 1960s. Presented in best-ever sound, here are 14 of their finest sides for the Memphis-based Home Of The Blues label Also included are the complete Federal recordings of their lead guitarist and chief songwriter Lowman "El" Pauling and their pianist Royal "The Royalton" Abbit - all making their CD debut - plus three solo Pauling sides that were recorded for (but not issued by) HOTB. Superbly soulful harmonies and stupendous guitar work make these tracks as vital now as they were when first released 45+ years (BlueBeat Music)
