      This past year my appreciation for early R&B and Soul skyrocketed... I couldn't stop playing it, searching for it, and dancing to it. I got a bunch of comps now... Shakin Fit, Whip It On Em, Show Me What You Got you know the Candy Record label releases, also All Night Soul Stomp, Pow City, Downtown Soulville.... any other must have Comps, tracks, albums?!?!

      I SMELL A RAT and ROLL YOUR MONEYMAKER on Stag-O-Lee records.

      BLOWIN' THROUGH YOKOHAMA on Atomic Passion.

      WHIP WOBBLE & GRIND on Club Harlem.

      T-BIRD PARTY on Lido.

      The JERK ! BOOM ! BAM ! serie on Jerk Boom Bam records.

      And of course, as you've already mentioned, every Candy records comp is worth a try.

      And many many more I can't think of right now.

      'Baby Don't You Weep'- Fred Bridges

      'Look At What I Almost Missed'- Pat Lewis

      'Angelina Angelina'- Stewart Ames

      'Arabia'- Royal Playboys

      'If It's All The Same To You Babe'- Luther Ingram

      Also "Gaz's Rockin' Blues" on ACE is a great comp. Gaz does Rockin' R'n'B nights in London. I only recently learned that he's John Mayall's son.
