Freddie King Boy Girl

Freddy King - Boy Girl Boy (Freddy King,Lulu Reed,Sonny Thompson) (1988) [Re-Up] Music

Posted by countryfreak at Sept. 22, 2010

You can find a repro of an original r&b lp (1962) on King. You also appreciate the marvellous voice of Lula Reed and the great backing of Freddie King (sometimes he sang with her on some tracks like "Do The President Twist" or "You Can't Hide") with Sonny Thompson Orchestra (he ever backed Lulu in her early days). If you like the early days of Soul, this CD is for you

VA - 100 Hits The Blues (5CD, 2019)
FLAC (tracks+.cue,log,scans) | 04:44:39 | 1 Gb
Genre: Blues / Label: Demon Music Group Ltd

A similar compilation was released in 2016 with the subtitle "100 Legendary Blues Classics", but somehow for a wide audience it went quite unnoticed. Perhaps that is why Demon Music Group this time decided to combine and produce a doublet again 100 Hits of The Blues and almost simultaneously 100 Hits Jazz (a bit late, and this rip will appear on the tracker). Yes, here mainly represented by a classic of the Blues. But what would be with modern Blues without this classic…

VA - The Colpix-Dimension Story (1994) Music

EAC Rip | FLAC (tracks, cue, log, full scans) - 663 MB | MP3 CBR 320 kbps - 380 MB
1:42:26 | Pop, Rock, Soul, R&B | Label: Sequel Records

In the first half of the 1960s, Colpix and Dimension were record-label offshoots of Columbia Pictures; Colpix tended toward teen idols, while Dimension was mainly an outlet for the compositions of the Gerry Goffin/Carole King songwriting team. This 40-song double CD includes all the major hits on the labels by the Marcels, James Darren, Shelley Fabares, Paul Petersen, Little Eva, the Cookies, and Carole King herself, as well as quite a few rarities. Although the compilers have done a thorough job, the jumble of disparate styles – sappy teen-idol pop, rhythm and blues, girl groups, soul, even a garage band – makes for tough end-to-end listening. Several of the sides by Darren and Petersen are unbearably cloying; the ones by Fabares, Teddy Randazzo, and Sandy Stewart are barely any better. The hits by Little Eva and the Cookies, on the other hand, are great dynamic girl-group performances. And some of the rarities are pretty cool – Carole King's odd, almost folk-rockish flop single "He's a Bad Boy," Earl-Jean's original version of "I'm Into Something Good" (covered for a hit by Herman's Hermits), the Girlfriends' "My One and Only, Jimmy Boy" (the best Wall of Sound girl-group record not produced by Phil Spector), the little-anthologized Top Ten soul hit "Hey Girl" by Freddie Scott, rare sides by Lou Christie and Duane Eddy, a silly Beatle parody by Sonny Curtis, and extremely rare (if not terribly good) singles by David Jones and Michael Nesmith before they joined the Monkees.
