Sugar Pie DeSanto passes

[Twoshoes]

Haven't seen mention on here but have just seen on a music site the sad passing at 89 Sugar Pie DeSanto on the 20th Dec. Soulful Dress was a must have in my group of friends when I first started collecting.

This record does it for me. A giant in Soul Music and beyond. Sugar Pie DeSanto RIP.

Lots of wonderful music, In The Basement, Go Go Power, Slip In Mules, Do I Make Myself Clear in addition to Soulful Dress from our early days. A great comp to enjoy: https://www.acerecords.co.uk/go-go-power-the-complete-chess-singles-1961-66 plus more on Brunswick, Galaxy etc. Here You Come Running is a pick from me.

RIP and thank you
