Synopsis

Album Description

Digitally remastered and expanded edition of this legendary 1967 collaboration from Rock 'N' Roll and R&B pioneer Larry Williams and Johnny Guitar Watson, who took his R&B roots into pimp-friendly Funk in the '70s. The album is a Northern Soul classic with three bonafide stompers in the title track, the legendary 'Too Late' and 'A Quitter Never Wins'. Also features the even rarer 45 'Nobody', which the duo recorded with US Psychedelic outfit Kaleidoscope. The package is expanded even more with six tracks from Watson's OKeh album The Fantastic Piano And Guitar of Johnny Watson - BAD! and two tracks from the OKeh album In A Fats Bag - The Johnny Guitar Watson Trio Plays Fats Waller. Righteous. 2009.

"I first found this album on vinyl in a junk shop in Birmingham, UK, in 1975. It was a perfect match for the times because like many other kids at the time I'd grown tired of over-produced mainstream soul and I wanted something with a raw edge to it. It has energy and honesty and is one of the best examples of sixties soul ever to be pressed. I've still got the vinyl copy but I'm taking the cd - it would grace any collection of essential soul classics."
