17) Victor Johnson - When you say you're mine/After dark in the ghetto (LOVE) Ex £20

A Vocal jazz 45 masterpiece with lush orchestration and funky backing (by Richard Evans) that has yet to be discovered. Read below for more info.....

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 45 that is already rising in price amongst those in the know ! A future classic

'When You Say You're Mine' by Victor Johnson has a very interesting credit, i.e. "Strings and Horns arranged by Richard Evans" No wonder this track sounds like a track Terry Callier or Jon Lucien could have sung , it has very similar style arrangements. Evans startied out his career as a bassist, Evans went on to arrange and produce a wide variety of simply amazing records for the Cadet label, among them Dorothy Ashby, Odell Brown and the Organizers, Terry Callier and last but certainly not least, the mighty Soulful Strings. Evans' work at Cadet is visionary, creating a sonic universe at once soulful, sophisticated and (very) forward looking.

When I found the Johnson 45, I was surprised because I had no idea that Evans had done any work for independent labels. A BMI search revealed yet another intriguing fact, that being that the song was written by Ken Chaney (one of the pianists to have played with the Young-Holt Trio) and Monica Chaney (his wife?). This, and the Evans credit confirmed for me that this was very likely a Chicago record. This record appears to date from 1972/73, and Evans did in fact craft some other indie label 45s for the likes of the Sounds of Black, Joyce Williams and T.L. Barrett.

The record itself is very cool in a jazzy, sophisticated soul vibe, with Johnson's vocal - reminiscent of Billy Eckstine or Arthur Prysock* - flowing over the arrangement. The tune itself has a wonderful hook in the chorus. The arrangement is - for Evans anyway - fairly straight ahead (no kalimba or fuzz guitar), with understated horns and waves of strings.

Interestingly enough, the flipside (actually the A-side) the bluesy 'After Dark in the Ghetto' was apparently a local hit in Chicago.
