Freshly uploaded to my YouTube channel is a blue-eyed pop/garage/soul acetate cut of the song "Soul Drippin" performed by an unknown group.
Written by Dick Monza and recorded by Syl Johnson and released on his 1968 Twinight album, "Dresses too short", the song was also covered in the same year by The Standells (Tower) and The Mauds (Mercury).
When I bought this acetate and a photocopied lyric sheet some years back, it purportedly came from Dick Monza's collection. If that is true, likely the acetate cut is the first version as it's called "Soul Drippin's" whereas the released takes have the title as "Soul Drippin".
