About this product

New R&B discoveries continue to emerge and entertain the many followers of the New Breed musical cult; nobody finds more than the Kent connoisseurs. Berna Dean's two previously unheard recordings are by far her best. They were laid down at Cosimo Matassa's New Orleans' studios by GNP Crescendo but eschewed in favour of two relatively average sides. The great 50s R&B songwriter Jesse Stone provides a rocker for the much-admired Jimmy Breedlove and a super-catchy 'This Morning' for an unknown mixed vocal group that has a joyous gospel feel. Jesse also penned 'Private Eye', a classic early 60s story-song, for Buddy Wilkins which was issued on Al Sears' Tri-Ess imprint. The title track is used twice, on two very different Fraternity recordings. Kenny Smith's version was issued in 1964 and has many followers, but the equally meritorious Coasters-inspired composition by the Citations is newly discovered. Win Menifee's 'I'm Runnin' Around' from the same Cincinnati tag comes complete with a fascinating back-story. There are three cover versions. Vermettya Royster's 'All Around The World' is backed by James Brown's 1961 band, while Roosevelt Lee's 1970 update of the 1947-originated 'Hey Little Girl' funks the tune up a la Godfather of Soul. The cover that will make the biggest noise is undoubtedly west coast band the Afterglows' version of Barbara Lynn's evergreen dancer 'I'm A Good Woman' - this is a future monster. Golden Crest provides two fabulous male vocal group sides - the swinging 'What's On Your Mind' by Eddie Daye's Four Bars and the delightful harmonies of the appropriately-named, but unknown Delights 'Mary Don't You Weep'. Blues still thrived into the 70s as Albert Washington's mean and moody 'Case Of The Blues' proves. Smokey Wilson took the music into the late 70s with the storming 'Goin' Away Baby (Round Like An Apple)', which benefits here from a 45-style edit.

Various Artists - Manchester: A City United In Music / Various   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Starting with Ewan MacColl's 'Dirty Old Town', written about the great metropolis and capturing the effects of 200 years of industrial revolution and it's aftermath, InchManchester; A City United In MusicInch moves through the 60s beat revolution, Strawberry Studios pop era, northern punk, indie mayhem and on to the Madchester years, culminating with an Oasis modern day-anthem. The tracks vary from the multi-million selling hits of Wayne Fontana, 10cc, Herman's Hermits and Simply Red to the cult musical art of Haydock's Rockhouse, Wynder K Frog and Smack. Well-known artists like the Hollies, Georgie Fame and John Mayall are heard on some of their lesser-known but top-notch tracks. Cult singles are featured by the Purple Gang, Toggery 5, Gerry & the Holograms and the Dakotas. Local personalities abound - Chris Sievey in pre-Frank Sidebottom guise with the Freshies, the Bard Of Salford - Mr John Cooper-Clarke and Graham Fellows aka John Shuttleworth when he was Jilted John. Future stars like Graham Gouldman and Dave Formula are present on great tracks recorded before fame arrived, while legendary producer Martin Hannett's name threads through the track-listing. Manchester's soulful roots can be heard on tracks by Elkie Brooks, Sweet Sensation, M People and Blue Zone, while earlier attempts at R&B were made by beat groups the Measles, Pete MacLaine & the Clan and the Whirlwinds. A dozen years later a raucous Inchin your faceInch musical rebellion was taken up by Buzzcocks, Slaughter & the Dogs and the Salford Jets. That burst of pent-up energy was then followed by the moodier angst-ridden sounds of Joy Division, Magazine and the Fall, and their younger followers the Stone Roses, Happy Mondays and Inspiral Carpets. Sequenced mainly chronologically, this 2CD set and it's accompanying booklet tell a fascinating story of a city's musical history and examine how it came to be
