CD Reviews
Indispensable (=ESSENTIAL)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(5 out of 5 stars)
"This is the real deal, the original versions of Jimmy James classics, including two versions (UK and US) of his signature "Come To Me Softly" (not to be confused with the Fleetwoods 50's doowop "Come Softly"). Due to being a British based artist, Jimmy is all too lightly known on this side of the Atlantic, and woefully underappreciated. Start with disc "2", since disc "1" is so hot you can't truly appreciate two if you play "1" first. On "1" Jimmy covers many Northern Soul and "Beach Music" hits of the day (late 60's), with such passion and drive that they equal or surpass the originals. Which is saying a LOT. You must have this. Five stars isn't enough!!"
