CD

✈
The contemporary manifestation of the southern soul groove of the 60s – still going strong in a host of indie artists who are keeping things real in the clubs today! The set focuses on singers still hitting the time-worn trail of the Chitlin Circuit – that chain of venues, clubs, and lounges that once played host to the bigger names of the genre back in the day – but which keep on bringing back the music year after year to an underground American soul audience! The styles here are a bit more contemporary than in the old days, but the music is still very much the same – themes of love and loss, lying and cheating, and just plain getting it on – all sung by singers who really know how to put over a tune. The package is great – with notes on each artist, as well as the contemporary scene – and titles include "Friday" by Sir Charles Jones, "Motel Lover" by Marvin Sease, "Don't Rock The Boat" by Big Cynthia, "Down Low Brother" by Barbara Carr, "Smaller The Club" by Mel Waters, "Psychic Hotline" by Gwen McCrae, "I'll Go To Jail" by Lee Fields, "Three People" by Willie Clayton, "On The Chitlin Circuit" by Bill Coday, and "Long Dong Silver" by Denise LaSalle.  © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Additional Marks & Notes

If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.


Used CD Grade

We only use the grade "Used CD" for non-new CDs. This all-encompassing grade was chosen it because we only buy and offer used CDs in the best possible condition.

When you purchase a used CD you can expect the disc to be free of all but the lightest of surface marks, the case to be clean (we often change the cases ourselves), and the booklet to be in good shape. Used CDs may show some signs of use, but if there are significant details or defects we will describe the item's condition (just like we do with LPs), so look for notes on cutout marks, stickers, promo stamps or other details before ordering.

All of our used CDs are guaranteed to play without skipping or flaws. After you receive a used CD from Dusty Groove, you have 1 week to play it to determine that it plays correctly. If it does not, you can request a return for a full refund.
