 This amazing instrumental doesn't get enough attention outside of the (relatively) small club of knowledgeable soul music fans around the world. Even within that group, a lot of folks probably think of Willie Mitchell primarily for his work with Al Green and other artists in the early 1970's at Hi in Memphis. Never knowing that he also produced a string of seminal instrumental soul records every bit as influential as those of better-known Memphis acts like the Bar-Kays or Booker T & the MG's. This is probably his very best of the best. And don't think all the goodness is on the A side, either... this one's bright 'n' lively B side is hugely popular with Northern Soul clubs. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Hi Records factory sleeve. It grades very close to Mint in appearance (Labels, Vinyl) and has powerful, pristine Mint sound.
