Charles Lloyd Quartet at Jazz Workshop, 1972

a helluva lot more invigorating than the records of the time.

Andrew Hill "Passing Ships" . . . last cd before I head off to have dinner with my Dad and my two brothers, honoring the fact that my Mom passed away three years ago today.

Have been listening to it on Spotify so first time for me. It is pretty good, very well recorded. Exactly what you would expect from prime Cedar and Higgins, Senatore fits in fine. I will buy this CD I think.

Dear "kinuta", usually I would answer

and eight others  .... these both are head and shoulders above everything else in Southern Soul album format - still after all these years its stunning to me that there is virtually not a single weak track  ..... but furthermore these platters (IMO) should be eligible (in no particular order):

And on the brink .... :

Left out Aretha Franklin`s 60`s/early 70`s Atlantic euvre (only partially Southern Soul) and artists with superb individual 45`s but inconsistent albums (Otis Redding, Wilson Pickett, Sam & Dave etc) .....

What are your favorite Southern Soul LP`s ?

I think you've nailed the best ones.

It's not much use drawing up a top ten as it would contain more than half of your picks.

I'd consider-

Otis Redding The Dictionary Of Soul

Al Green Gets Next To You

Johnnie Taylor Wanted One Soul Singer

Might Sam McLain Give It Up To Love ( might not qualify location wise but a killer album)

William Bell The Soul Of A Bell

The Dramatics Watcha See Is Whatcha Get ( comments ditto Sam McClain)

My younger years were totally singles dominated.

LPs were expensive and were a luxury I could only really afford to fully indulge from the early '70s.

My 60's collection of vinyl was a pretty limited mix of BNR, blues and soul. I did however have a shitload of 45s.

Thnx for sharing, kinuta.

Completely agree on your assesment .... especially Mighty Sam McLain`s slow but deeply burning "Give It Up To Love" is a big favorite of mine. I was lucky enought to see him in performance around the time of this release. He had strong presence on stage and his voice + showmanship made me wonder why he never found wider acclaim ....

Will play The Dramatics "Watcha "See Is Whatcha Get" ....

Due to my former profound interest in Southern Deep Soul I`ve assembled over the yers a larger 45 collection - don`t listen to them anymore but not prepared to part with these (although lot of them carry danceble tracks on the A-sides and are indemand nowadays making them in retrospect hilarious investments  ) ....
