💎 Description 💎
Two sides that delight lovers of the small label, vocal group sound.
This rarity from Allegan, Michigan situated nearer to Chicago than Detroit, this small town Michigan settlement gave birth to a sumptuous stand-alone double helping of vocal group Northern Soul. Taking no instruction from either metropolis in style or delivery. Both sides are deliciously individualistic; a memorable tune I've not heard played out for quite a few decades, although the pioneering Greatstone, Manchester DJ Stevie Z. used to delight the crowd with this addictive unconventional mid-tempo. That is saturated in qualities that demand a second lease of life on the truly rare-soul scene, home and abroad.
Stunningly offbeat male vocal harmonies wrap themselves around a sparing instrumental backing.
Fabulous, unfiltered from the street-corner of this tiny Michigan out-post, fabulous vocal-group Northern Soul occasionally borrowing from the previous decade, seamlessly blending Soul with Doo-wop offering up a richly vocalized mid-tempo stepper. A persistent guitar riff, bolstered by a sympathetic Hammond allowing those sublime vocals to deliver eloquently different Northern Soul.
Certainly perfect for those dedicated to under-played gems Sundays or the lockdown D.I.Y. sets that are so in vogue at the moment. The lead voice serves up an abyss of real-Soul, the backing members shower the leading lyrics with skilled harmonies with their parting last shot, another sign of their neighborhood Doo-Wop influences.
Flip it over the distilled soulful quality again shines through, with the note perfect lead vocal cradled on a wave of Hammond, guitar pulses and warming harmonies.
Two great sides, showcasing consummate Michigan vocal-group Northern Soul of the slickest kind, whichever side you drop the arm on..
