Sweetest One
CD (Item 478186) RCA/Dusty Groove, 1967 -- Condition: New Copy
One of the greatest Northern Soul albums ever -- completely great all the way through, and filled with songs that have been burning up dancefloors for years! The vocals are incredible -- soaring harmonies that hold together perfectly, even when the grooves are hard and heavy -- and the instrumentation is great too -- handled by the Pied Piper team, who were kind of a Motown offshoot that featured Jack Ashford on vibes and percussion, Dave Hamilton and Ray Monette on guitar, and Joe Hunter on piano. Hunter and Ashford handled the arrangements -- with a pitch-perfect sound that's completely sublime -- sweet and grooving at the same time, and put together with the same kind of care you'd find at Motown -- but with all the harder-edge qualities that always made indie work from Detroit so great. Every cut is a winner, and the set is the only full album ever done by the group -- with cuts that include "Egyptian Love", "Till The End Of Time", "Since I Found My Baby", "Sweetest One", "Unlucky Sun", "I'll Never Forget You", "Do The Pied Piper", and "I'm With You All The Way". Great reissue -- fully remastered from the original tapes -- with new liner notes too! © 1996-2010, Dusty Groove America, Inc. | ||||||
