Description
We start off with a great Barbara Lynn track which has Dr. John on piano, then follow it with the equally great Knight Brother's song which would have been a great song for The Walker Brothers to cover, unfortunately they didn't hang around too long. Dry Your Eyes & Gonna Take A Miracle sound very similar to me, the latter rose to prominence with Laura Nyro's cover. Skimmiing through we get a Brenda Holloway track that should have gone to Mary Wells had she not left the label. The Tyrone Davis track has just been covered by Boz Scaggs & the Howard Tate track was resurrected by Ry Cooder on 'Bop 'Til' You Drop. there's a bit of Northern Soul in there with The Flirtations & a wonderful Chuck Wood track. We close it out with four great tracks from the ladies especially the Irma Thomas & the Mitty Collier ones.
