Editorial Reviews
From Grove Press Guide to Blues on CD
Crooner Jesse Belvin, a key figure on the 1950s West Coast R&B scene, had a special way with slow and medium ballads; his adoration of melody and lyrics was stirringly dramatic yet never bathetic. This collection of released tracks and long-lost demos and alternate takes does not have his signature piece, "Goodnight My Love," which was made for another label. -- © Frank John Hadley 1993

Album Description
In 1959, Brook Benton ushered in a new era of sophisticated soul music with his first Number One hit, "It's Just a Matter of Time". Lush string arrangements became his hallmark, a perfect complement to his creamy, warm baritone and silky smooth ballad style. He reigned supreme throughout the mid-sixties with twenty-five Top Forty hits, including six chart-topping smashes. A remarkably talented songwriter, Benton co-wrote the majority of his hits, largely with his producer Clyde Otis. In 1970, he crowned his illustrious career with the Number One Gold Record Rainy Night in Georgia.
