To complement our new "Best Of James Carr"
CD we also have an abridged - and limited
edition - album version, to satisfy the needs of
vinyl-aholics everywhere.
Carr had two original album releases in the
1970s but never a "Greatest Hits" collection -
so this album and its CD counterpart, timed to
coincide with the 50th anniversary of Carr's
best-known and best-loved 45 'Dark End Of
The Street', is both long overdue and right on
time.
Its 14 selections include all of Carr's US R&B
and Pop hits from 'You've Got My Mind Messed
Up' through to his version of the Bee Gees' 'To
Love Somebody', a pair of fan favourites from
his original UK albums and several great tracks
that have never been released on vinyl in the
UK before.
As popular with his fans now as he ever was,
this collection will keep long-time admirers
happy and bring many new ones into the
James Carr fan club.
