A killer cut from New Orleans singer Joyce Harris – very different than any take of the tune you might expect! Joyce has a way of mixing soulful inflections with raw rocking modes – kind of like Wanda Jackson singing R&B – and this mix of the tune has all these strange changes and odd effects that really amplify the groove, as Joyce sings with the Daylighters group of Sonny Rhodes! The flipside is equally raw and rocking – a tune that's got plenty of soul, but also has some heavier romping modes too! 7-inch, Vinyl record

2 early hits by The Sensations – an early Chess vocal group that featured one female and three male singers! The style made for a playful interchange of vocals that was almost pop, but still retained enough R&B touches to be soul – and the tunes on the single are catchy enough that they should have been bigger hits. 7-inch, Vinyl record

Nice stuff from the early days, and 2 cuts that have a decidedly R&B feel to them. "This Old Heart" is James at his soulful best, with heartbreaking vocals, and excellent raw backing behind him. "How Long Darling" is a sweet bluesy ballad – sung by James in duet with another singer, and some dubbed-in live backing! 7-inch, Vinyl record

An early one from James – with a raw R&B groove on both tracks, and shouted vocals that strike right at the core of the songs! "Crazy" has kind of a "Night Train" beat to it – and "Lost Someone" is slower, with a bluesy slow vamp kind of approach that lets James get all sad and mellow on the vocals. 7-inch, Vinyl record
