MUSIC CITY SOUL FROM NASHVILLE'S BLACK CATS - New & Sealed 60s Soul CD (Kent)

Description: Label – Kent (1998) Catalogue # CDKEND157 Format - CD Album Condition – New & Sealed - Release Information - To assess a CD compiled by one of the best reviewers and journalists in the world is a daunting task. Doubly so when he not only contributes his own incisive reviews of each track within the CD booklet, but has also coined the very term, "Deep Soul", that the whole project is about. A case in point is his inclusion of Eddie Holman's I'm Not Gonna Give Up, a personal favourite, which when I was assessing the tape quality, struck me as unusual in that the vocal back-ups only appear at the crescendo of the song at the end of the record. ** see full description for track listing & more info on this release MUSIC CITY SOUL FROM NASHVILLE'S BLACK CATS - New & Sealed 60s Soul CD (Kent) Description Music City Soul From Nashville's Black Cats Various Artists Track Listing 01 When The Boy That You Love (Is Loving You) - Peggy Gaines 02 Hold On (A Little Bit Longer) - Rufus Hunter 03 The Sound Of A Crying Man - Herbert Hunter 04 Candy - The Tempo Rhythms 05 It's A Little Bit Late - Fred Waters 06 I'd Like To Try It One More Time - Larry Birdsong 07 These Are My People - Roscoe Shelton 08 It's Almost Sundown - Gene Allison 09 Foolish Lover - Jimmy Tig And The Rounders 10 Isn't It Wonderful To Dream - Herbert Hunter 11 Some Day - Thomas Henry 12 I Know The Feelin' - The Jades 13 I Want To Give My Heart To You - Leevert Allison 14 I Need A Man - The Precious Three 15 Tell Me Baby (Who Would I Be) - The Avons 16 Just To Satisfy My Baby - Peggy Gaines 17 Love Is A Two Way Thing - Freddie Waters 18 My Loss, Your Gain - The Jades 19 Is It Love (Or Imitation) - Thomas Henry 20 Happy Go Lucky - Herbert Hunter 21 Push Away From The Table - Herbert Hunter 22 You Girl - Wendell Watts 23 Singing A New Song - Freddie Waters 24 Win Or Lose - Rufus Hunter 25 Sugar - Larry Birdsong And Thomas Henry 26 Nobody Knows - Freddie Waters And Eddie Frierson Release Information To assess a CD compiled by one of the best reviewers and journalists in the world is a daunting task. Doubly so when he not only contributes his own incisive reviews of each track within the CD booklet, but has also coined the very term, "Deep Soul", that the whole project is about. A case in point is his inclusion of Eddie Holman's I'm Not Gonna Give Up, a personal favourite, which when I was assessing the tape quality, struck me as unusual in that the vocal back-ups only appear at the crescendo of the song at the end of the record. I was so amazed and impressed that I had to compare the tape to my single to make sure I had the correct version. With glee I made a mental note to feature this aspect of the song in my review of the CD, only to be thwarted when reading Dave's notes. Inevitably he had highlighted this very point and used it to extol the virtues of the recording. The Deep Soul Treasures CDs are Dave's personal music history of the genre he loves the most. I know he sometimes feels saddled with having first coined the terms Deep Soul and Northern Soul, especially as those phrases have taken on their own life and have evolved to cover music they were never originally intended for. However it gives Dave a licence to ignore the pigeon-holes and categories that we collectors and discographers have imposed on some records, and judging them on performance alone he can surprise and delight us by including them on these great projects. I totally concur with Dave in his inclusion of mid and uptempo records as Deep, if the vocal and lyrical content of the recording are that way. Witness here Eddie Giles' Losin' Boy which goes from a solid dance beat to a pounding climax where his wails of "oh yeah" almost develop into death throes by the end. Similarily Deep Soul doesn't have to be Southern (though it often helps). The tracks by Ben E King, Lisa Richards, Nat Phillips and Bessie Banks all hail from New York and don't even attempt to ape that great Southern ballad style. Bessie Banks' exquisite Go Now was of course the original of the song which went on to sell a million copies for the UK pop group The Moody Blues. This version epitomises all that Dave love's in a soul record-.-pleading, heart-broken vocals on an intensely dramatic song. The whole performance feels so improvised and spontaneous that one wonders if they didn't think "Sod the sales figures, let's make a piece of art!" Those were pretty much Dave and our sentiments in compiling Volume One, only contradicted by you, the customers, actually buying the CD in the thousands and making it Kent's best seller to date.
