Northern Soul - Bobby Hebb's Impact on British Soul Music

Various Artists Northern Soul's Classiest Rarities, Vol. 2 \http://www.allmusic.com/album/northern-souls-classiest-rarities-vol-2-mw0000306570 Great sounding and dense with information Northern Soul's Classiest Rarities, Vol. 2 is a true labor of love, compiling 24 solid tracks on the Kent label, a follow-up to the first volume released in 2001, four years before this wonderful sequel. It is sonically superior to another 2001 classic, Northern Soul Connoisseurs on Spectrum/Uni, the huge quantity of these anthologies from this music genre almost as overwhelming as the 45 rpm singles they collect. Ady Croasdell delivers 12 pages of liner notes on slick paper rife with photographs and copies of the actual labels from some of the 45s contained herein. The music is breathtakingly magical, the "Heatwave" beat driving the Extremes "How I Need Your Love" sliding quickly into Jimmy "Bo" Horne 's "I Can't Speak," hardcor...

Alice Clark THE COMPLETE RECORDINGS

 The Complete Studio Recordings 1968-1972 - CD NEW THIS ALBUM CONTAINS THREE  BOBBY HEBB CLASSICS DON'T YOU CARE CHARMS OF THE ARMS OF LOVE HARD, HARD PROMISES   Read Joe Viglione's review of Alice Clark on AllMusic.com The self-titled 1972 disc from Alice Clark has more than stood the test of time, it is a sublime masterpiece of R&B/pop from the house of Bob Shad , the jazz producer who founded Mainstream Records, the original home for this superior project. Perhaps it isn't a coincidence that Clark 's repertoire is exactly the kind of material Janis Joplin would pick up on in her days after Big Brother & the Holding Company , as this was also the first imprint that Joplin & the Holding Company recorded for professionally. Jimmy Webb 's "I Keep It Hid" starts things off, one of the singles released from this original package and a nugget from another soul masterpiece, Supremes Arranged and Produced by Jimmy Webb , whe...

Rest In Peace Herb Reed of The Platters

Herb lived in Arlington which associated him with Bobby Hebb geographically. Rest in peace, Herb Reed. BOSTON— Herb Reed, the last surviving original member of 1950s vocal group the Platters who sang on hits like "Only You" and "The Great Pretender," has died. He was 83. Reed died on Monday in a Boston area hospice after a period of declining health that included chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, manager Fred Balboni said. http://www.boston.com/ae/celebrity/articles/2012/06/05/platters_founder_herb_reed_dies_at_83/ Reed sang bass on the group's four No. 1 hits, including "The Great Pretender," "My Prayer," "Twilight Time" and "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes."
