Superb Memphis soul LP, originally out on Hi in 1972.
Rawly soulful across a range of styles, with strong songs — many co-written by Peebles and her old man, Don Bryant — in excellent arrangements by Willie Mitchell for the Hodges Brothers and Hi Rhythm, and exceptional singing.
Crucial stuff like I Feel Like Breaking Up Somebody’s Home Tonight.

The first official 12’ release of these two walloping classics by one of the very greatest soul singers of all time. Undimmed after forty years.

Lovely, rough, heartfelt doowop, with a dash of early Impressions. Prix demos.
As featured in the recent Ikea ad.

‘Pied Piper Productions was a group of Detroit arrangers, writers, artists and musicians who unwittingly drew up the blueprints of Northern Soul, during their brief time together in 1965-1967. Mainstays Jack Ashford, Mike Terry, Joe Hunter and Herbie Williams were original members of Motown studio crew the Funk Brothers. This compilation features some of the biggest Northern Soul discoveries of recent times —like Nancy Wilcox and September Jones — alongside established favourites and other rarities.’

Acetate.

Bouncy Lady! The first of their six Fantasy albums via Wayne Henderson’s At Home Productions. Tasty jazz-funk and soul from the Portland crew.
