Extra-Infos: .. Classiest Rarities Vol.7
Description:This latest episode of the high-quality end of the Northern Soul world is as varied as the scene has become, featuring manic funk, Detroit grooves, doo wop-inspired ballads, neo-Motown and pure soul stompers. Los Angeles features strongly throughout. As a taster of the pleasures to come over the next couple of years, the opening tracks by ex-Motowners Carolyn Crawford and Kim Weston, along with the Joe Buckner & Major IV number, are from Mickey Stevensonâ??s late 60s Los Angeles operation; and the Loversâ?? acetate-only â??Sheâ??s Supremeâ?? and John Wesley & the Four Teesâ?? stomping version of the Williams & Watson LP track â??Love Is Such A Funny Thingâ?? were recorded under the aegis of the cityâ??s great arranger Arthur Wright. Researching the tape vaults during lockdown has proved fruitful. The first version of Claude Hueyâ??s â??Why Would You Blow Itâ?? by the unknown Isaiah Smith was discovered among the Galaxy tapes, as was the Brothers Of Soulâ??s â??I Need Your Loveâ?? â?? any previously unheard track by this redoubtable outfit is big soul news. I had originally thought that Buck Ramâ??s group Two Cats & A Mouse would be 50s-sounding, like most of his acts, but â??Love In My Heartâ?? proved to be a classy cover of the Oraclesâ?? 1967 rarity on OM. From Milwaukee, the Badger State, we have two little-known 1963 recordings from the Cuca label. â??You Donâ??t Careâ?? by the Esquires (aka Betty Moorerâ??s brothersâ?? group the Ambassadors) first appeared on â??Badger A-Go-Goâ?, a compilation album issued on Cucaâ??s Night Owl subsidiary in 1968, while Harvey (Scales) & Seven Soundsâ?? beat ballad â??Itâ??s Midnightâ?? was finally made available as a download-only in 2020. Jack Ashfordâ??s influence is also strong. â??Crazy Thingsâ?? by the unknown Joe Douglas, one of Jackâ??s earliest productions, was cut in Philly with a Motor City backing track. Jackâ??s Pied Piper set-up produced the Hesitationsâ?? â??Soul Kind Of Loveâ??, the second 45 from their superlative â??Soul Supermanâ? LP, and his later work with Detroiters Lorraine Chandler and George Rountree is represented by Philly singer Ray Gantâ??s update of Eddie Parkerâ??s â??I Need A True Loveâ??, and the Family Brickâ??s vocal group version of â??Iâ??ll Fly To Your Open Armsâ??, which Jack sang on his â??Hotel Sheetsâ? LP. Other soul legends include Major Lance with â??Girl, Come On Homeâ?? (the original flip of â??Since I Lost My Babyâ??s Loveâ??) and the Exitsâ?? â??Under The Street Lampâ??, which epitomised the aspirations of black street corner vocal groups. Joe Hicksâ?? â??Donâ??t It Make You Feel Funkyâ?? is adrenalin-driven soul, adored by the Northern Soul crowd. Rocky Gilâ??s â??Itâ??s Not The Endâ?? and Little Nicky Soulâ??s â??You Saidâ?? are both mega-money items, but the rarest and most-desired track has to be â??The Intruderâ?? by Melvin Hicks & the Versatiles, which was thought to exist only on acetate but is actually a missing number on a collectible soul label â?? all will be revealed. - ..

UK collection. This latest episode of the high-quality end of the Northern Soul world is as varied as the scene has become, featuring manic funk, Detroit grooves, doo wop-inspired ballads, neo-Motown and pure soul stompers.

The first version of Claude Huey's 'Why Would You Blow It' by the unknown Isaiah Smith was discovered among the Galaxy tapes, as was the Brothers Of Soul's 'I Need Your Love' - any previously unheard track by this redoubtable outfit is big soul news. I had originally thought that Buck Ram's group Two Cats & A Mouse would be 50s-sounding, like most of his acts, but 'Love In My Heart' proved to be a classy cover of the Oracles' 1967 rarity on OM. Includes many more great memories.
