Prolific performers like Z.Z. Hill, Johnny Copelandand Clay Hammond are alongside one-off 45 artistssuch as Jeanette Jones, Earl Foster and ChuckWalker. Walker's little-known deep soul balladsopen and close the compilation and there arestunning slow soul performances from Jimmy Beeand Venetta Fields. Blues meets soul with LarryDavis, Al King, Lowell Fulson and Millie Foster,whose version of 'Rock Me Baby' is sensual andpreviously unissued.? Moody, early soul dance tracks come from BobbyJohn and the Other Brothers, while uptempoofferings are sung by Z.Z. Hill, Vernon Garrett andStacy Johnson. The newly discovered 'Honey' byFelice Taylor was penned by Steve Cook andCharles Tate of 'Too Darn Soulful' fame and gospelchoir BPS Revolution contribute a terrific, largelyunknown, mid-tempo LP track.
