360 Degrees Of Billy Paul (expanded edition)
CD (Item 472020) Philadelphia International/Epic, 1972 — Condition: New Copy
Beautifully sweet soul by Billy Paul – perhaps a bit more pop soul than some of his other albums, but no less great! Gamble & Huff were firmly in the control room on this one – and the results show on excellent cuts like the huge hit "Me & Mrs. Jones", the funky groover "Am I Black Enough For You" (sampled by Schoolly D), and the tracks "I'm Just A Prisoner", "Brown Baby", and "Let's Stay Together". A masterpiece of sophisticated soul that not only had Billy crossing over big, but which opened whole new doors in the market for black male singers! CD also features a bonus 9 minute version of "Me & Mrs Jones" – recorded live in London, 1973! © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
