Tommy McGee – “Come On” / “To Make You Happy” – SDO-1009

Tommy McGee
Soul Direction have taken two tracks from his first two 45s “To Make You Happy” and
“Come On”. “To Make you Happy” was originally titled “Just to Make You happy” for a
rerelease to give some energy back to these two superb tracks, that have seemingly been
missed by so many collectors over the years, but also have become more elusive in recent
years. They feature on the “Positive-Negative” Album as well as rare 45 releases.

The Summits – “Window Shopping” / Phillips – “People Clap Your Hands” – SDO1010.

The Summits.
Supporters of the Soul Direction label and the general soul collecting movement will be
more than aware of the DC band The Summits.
The track featured “Window Shopping” was part of a almost lost master tape and only
released in digital format

Phillips.
The group covered massive ground on their six-track EP, touching on everything from feel-
good disco to funky fusion, to modern soul, and back again, recovered from countless tapes
People Clap Your Hands” is one of the Six tracks they laid down that day and here at Soul
Direction we believe the best one so with pleasure we bring it to you for the first time on
vinyl.
