THE HYTONES
YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW MY NAME / GOOD NEWS
The Hytones were Nashville s top soul group and under the tutelage of genius producer and songwriter Bob Holmes, made some great music. You Don t Even Know My Name was their first release on the short-lived Southern Artists label before it was released on Bell. It is an exceptionally smooth style of singing by the group - in unison for much of the track. Good News by contrast is a gritty Stax-sounding mover that was first a 100 Club Anniversary single before being issued as a Kent 45. Now regarded as a rare soul classic, its release on a Southern Artists repro label will be welcomed. |
