Home Schooled -- The ABCs Of Kid Soul

List Price: 18.98
CD (Item 465864) Numero, Early 70s -- Condition: New Copy

Jackson 5, move over -- because the folks at Numero Records have uncovered a whole host of rare kid soul acts from the 70s -- most of them a fair bit funkier than their Motown contemporaries! The tracks here all clearly follow the lead started by Michael and his brothers at the end of the 60s -- but the music is way more than just a simple copycat of Jackson modes -- as each of these artists have a really individual approach, and a heck of a lot of personality in their music -- despite their youthful years. In true Numero fashion, most of the cuts here are from tiny little labels -- issued only as singles back in the day, but produced with a great deal of enthusiasm for the music -- and a confident, competent sound that's quite striking, given the age of the performers. The package comes with complete notes on the music -- opening up a whole world of lesser-known kid soul acts -- and titles include the amazing "Trust Your Child" by Patrizia & Jimmy, plus "I'm Not Ready For Love" by Promise, "One Is Enough For One" by Jack & the Mods, "Now That School Is Through" by Cindy & The Playmates, "Jersey Slide (part 1)" by 3 Stars, "You Are My Dream" by 3 Simmons, "Can't Let You Break My Heart" by Quantrells, "If You're Looking For Love" by Triads, "Yellow Ribbons" by Atons, "Sweet Pea" by Altyrone Deno Brown, "Time After Time" by Step By Step, "Time" by Otis The 3rd, and "Little Girl" by Michael Washington.  © 1996-2010, Dusty Groove America, Inc.
