the track 'can't get away' which appears on the 2004 CD, was this ever on vinyl, or is it a previously unreleased track..the CD notes are a bit confusing.

It is on the Japanese P Vine LP Searchin' For My Love which had 5 previously unreleased tracks and was released in 1985.  Don't look at discogs as the tracklisting is wrong.

Great track. Championed by Sean H I think.

Tough one to locate but Dave Flynn turns one up every now and then, which is where I got mine from. 

Might be worth giving him a shout. 

Got my LP around 3 1/2 years back now from a seller in the USA

They do still turn up now and again, you just have to put a few searches out for one.

Certainly where i first heard it at Soul Essence played by Sean

Yep, I was certainly the first (and will probably be the last) to play it .

I picked up the LP for penny's several years ago as I had the UK Chess copy and didn't want to burn it up.

Was shocked to find the unreleased bonus tracks on there, 'Can't Get Away' being particularly playable.

I broke it first at 'Just Soul' under the guise of Chico Jenkins (the actual lead singer) and then at Soul Essence / Yarmouth weekender.

It's still bubbling under and people should grab them while they can. The track is 100% Solid Soul gagging to be given lots of play.

A Muscle Shoals masterpiece.

Yep, it's a great soul record isn't it - a proper one. 

Hope all is good Sean.

All the best mate.

Hi Peter,

It's a beauty.

Hope you're well mate.

I think we have unfinished business, but as you know I'm a bit low profile these days.

Please pm me your addy.

The UK Shout CD it's on .... 

A mid 60's UK mod / soul club play ... the B side of "Searching For My Baby" .... 

 

A track from them that only seems to be on a 45 from Belgium  ....

Hey Mr.DJ is one of the great soul instrumental songs of the Sixties.

Are you sure Sean ? - the CD claims an April 68 Chicago session.  And to be honest it does not particularly jump out as 'Muscle Shoals'..

No mate, not 100% sure at all Mike. The 'Searcing For My Baby' 45 was obviously recorded at Fame. After Chess signed the act an album was then recorded, also at Fame, and I understood the out takes, or extra tracks, were from that session. They were Alabama boys and sound like the same players to me, but I don't have the CD so, not having read the notes, wasn't aware that they recorded in Chicago at all. Seems odd, particularly after the success of SFMB and when Chess were sending artists such as Etta James and Irma Thomas to record in Muscle Shoals. But may well have been a year or so later and trying to recapture that 'sound' in Chicago didn't come to anything. 

Cheers Mike for the info. See you in a few weeks!
