4 out of 5 stars Excellent amateurs.......2000-03-14

Beautiful stuff--mainly mid- to late doo-wop by bands and individuals trying hard to break in, and fail. But the tracks by Jesse Belvin, The Charades, and the mysterious Coupons could have and should have been heard everywhere. Driving home on HWY 81 late at night, listening to this stuff unexpectedly on the radio, I felt I was attending a primitive Church of R&B. You can also hear where Frank Zappa heard some of his first epiphanies.

4 out of 5 stars Not quite Northern soul.......2003-02-25

This record was a real pain to find (located it out of print, mid-winter 2002 in a CD shop in Syracuse, NY). It's not quite like the Chicago soul of the same period, and bears little in common with Northern soul of the same era.

Key names here would be Essau, Lori Ann (young female singer), Emerson Brown & The Del Rios and Pheasants. Essau's track, "What Did I Do To You," is worth the price of admission. There's definite links here to early Philly soul acts like the Intruders and Thom Bell acts like the Delfonics. Fans of early seventies Philly Soul looking to take a step back to about '65 will enjoy this collection. Soul completists, take heed.
