Here is another great record released on the Checker label. This one predates yesterday's Little Milton 45 by a few months, and was a big hit in the Summer of 1965. This clocks in at 3 minutes 20 seconds which is actually quite a long track for a mid sixties soul record.
This is another single that can be found in all three 60s incarnations of the Checker label. And after I said yesterday that this particular design was believed to not have debuted until 1966 this has now got me wondering. I notice the release number (13738) is suffixed by an R on the label. The R does not appear on red label copies of this single. So does this mean maybe that it was reissued in 1966?
This is a stunning piece of Deep Soul which I first came across as being the opening track on Dave Godin's Deep Soul Treasures Vol. 4 CD back in the noughties. All five volumes of those CDs are absolutely essential if you are, like me, a lover of Deep Soul.
