Two for the Money - James Carr - Dark End of the Street/These Arms of Mine

OLD PA'S WEDNESDAY CLUB

THE GREATEST SOUL VOICE EVER ??
LOVE ATTACK


 
JAMES CARR - THE DARK END OF THE STREET

Getting new computer so just a quickie this week. Who was the greatest soul voice ever? You probably would go for Otis Redding and rightly so to. But if you have not heard James Carr then check him out NOW. He gets my vote, a little bit more refined than Otis and just a joy for theses old ears!

I have a James Carr compilation that is impossible to pull one track from. It's one of those that you have to sit down and consume whole. Fantastic stuff.
Good luck with the new technology Old Pa. My external hard drive blew a few weeks ago. I lost a lot of music and precious photos.

TS - we have all been there. Ever since I lost 'precious stuff' I have 2/3 external drives and back up back up so to speak. Mr Carr certainly delivers.

I remember you playing and raving about James Carr for good reason too. Classic, underrated voice!
