Good Old Soul From The Early Days

GOOD OLD SOUL FROM THE EARLY DAYS

 

Exactly what it says on the tin.  Nearly all early 60's soul and proto-soul.  I loved doing this one, if people like it, I'll do some more.  Great unissued original version of People That's Why on here too. (Thanks to Ace Records brilliant Birth Of Soul series for inspiration)

Are you going to do any more of these Pete as I really enjoyed both of them? Easy to forget the roots of our music.
