Check Me Out If You Don't Know Me By Now
LP (Item 7984) People, 1975 -- Condition: New Copy
The mellower of Lyn Collins' two albums for the People label -- but still pretty darn fantastic! At some level, it seems like Lyn's taking on the rest of the soul industry -- showing them that she can kick some major booty on her interpretations of hits like "Backstabbers", "If You Don't Know Me By Now", "Try A Little Tenderness", and "Mr Big Stuff", which is one of her best funky tracks ever, and better than Jean Knight's original! She also shines extremely well on the original cuts, though -- especially the funky classic "Rock Me Again & Again & Again", plus the often-overlooked mellow soul groovers "To Each His Own", "Put It On The Line", and "How Long Can I Keep It Up". Production by James Brown, of course! © 1996-2010, Dusty Groove America, Inc. | ||||||
