it is melodies internationals greatest pleasure to bring forth its latest reissue comprising two stripped-back, reflective pieces of us folk soul. largely forgotten for the past forty-odd years, bobby wright (now abu talib)s blood of an american and everyone should have his day resurface as politically-infused works that shine bright and still hold meaning to this day. the 60s and 70s constituted an exceptional era for its unique blend of popular culture and political radicalism

betty wright is a 64 year old american soul and r&b singer and songwriter, who rose to fame in the 1970s with hits such as -clean up woman- and -tonight is the night-. like aretha franklin, betty was blessed with a four octave voice range and is adept at using the whistle register. pressing on 180 gram audiophile vinyl.

the nothing special releases 014 & 017 by tim wright, bundled up for a special price.

edna wright’s idiosyncratic “oops!” is one of the most sublime vocal refrains in soul music history. anchoring its host album’s leadoff cut, it sets the tone for a uniquely satisfying modern soul lp. indeed, whilst many of its ilk come laden with filler, wright’s one solo record is an exercise in elegant restraint, a concise killer. officially licensed and beautifully remastered for vinyl by celebrated engineer simon francis, it has been pressed on audiophile 180g vinyl for the first time and features the original iconic artwork. each copy includes a printed inner sleeve with a sumptuous black & white photo, full lyrics and heartfelt notes from edna herself.

dieses nun wiederveröffentlichte live-album von o.v. wright wurde 1979 aufgenommen und erschien erstmals 1989 bei dem legendären label hi records, jedoch nur im cd-format. nun ist das werk erstmal als vinyl-version erhältlich. mit dem hit -eight men and four women- landete o.v. wright in den top 10 der amerikanischen billboard-charts. die aufnahme entstand im hotel nakano sun plaza hall in tokio.
die vinyl-lp erscheint inklusive downloadcode.

o.v. wright war ein legendärer soulsänger, der leider 1980 viel zu früh an einem herzinfarkt gestorben ist. obwohl der 41-jährige sänger insgesamt 13 top 50 r&b-hits zu verzeichnen hatte, kann man ihn nicht nur an seinem kommerziellen erfolg messen. er wurde als einer der größten und ausdrucksstärksten sänger des genres verehrt und mit größen wie otis redding oder solomon burke verglichen. “treasured moments” enthält eine essentielle auswahl an singles, die er zwischen 1965 und 1976 auf don robeys back beat label und abc records veröffentlicht hat.

released during the late 1970s disco era, milton wrights sophomore long player has always stood out as a singular, innovative example of the deepest, rarest grooves known to underground soul lovers all over the globe.

shaun j. wright & alinka lay down their chicago flavour on crosstown rebels with face the truth. the release features three originals with hot property audiojack on the remix. wright, formerly of hercules & love affair, provides the vocals to each track with rich, sultry tones timely placed across heavy bass-lines, hypnotic rhythms and high-energy percussion: that classic chicago sound.

limited edition remastered of the rare phillip wright classic!

athens of the north presents two of the disco floaters from our previously unreleased aotnlp original friends and buddies, both of these versions are on 45 for the first time. the stripped down version of silence that you keep benefits from the more direct tight vocal. without the synths there is much more space in the mix which suits the melancholy deep disco groove so much better. on the flip po man has also been stripped right back to its more basic elements also for the better, less is so much more.

remastered neuauflage eines der besten deep southern soul-alben aller zeiten von sandra bright aus memphis, später nashville, aus dem das stax-sublabel truth kurz vor der stax-insolvenz leider nur einige 7 inch singles auskoppeln konnte. 1989 erschien es dann bei demon records und wurde zur begehrten rarität.

more ultra rare disco-soul from the sunshine state! phillip wright only dropped 1 45 single under his own name on tk discos tiny dash label in 1976. long sought after & coveted by lovers of rare disco & modern soul *keep her happy* has never been reissued in its original 45 format, until now! often fetching around the $200 mark for a used copy this sublime slice of funk deserves to be heard by a wider audience, sadly phillip never achieved the commercial success of his sister betty but perhaps now this obscure single of his will make people hit the dancefloor in 2015! repressed, remastered & re-released in its original dinner 45 rpm format with all original dash records artwork intact in conjunction with joe stone / tk disco, miami fl.

milton wrights perfect deep soul classic *keep it up* has always been a top shelf record, everything about it is almost flawless! whether it is miltons silky vocal delivery, the incessant guitar driven back beat or the total space funk vibe of his omnipresent arp-2600 synthesizer this record has it all. originally released on tk discos more soul and funk orientated alston label which was home to many legendary artists and records, this 1975 sunshine classic never fails to make people move. a classic rare groove indeed. *the silence that you keep* takes up side-b, a jazzy, flute driven love song that again features milton s perfect voice and some fantastic arrangement. a real gem of a record, with the original 45 changing hands for over £100 a time in used condition. this is the first time *keep it up* has been re-issued in its original 45 rpm format with the original alston label artwork. it has been re-mastered, re-pressed and made available again with the permission of tk disco / alston records, miami florida, usa.

after his amazing collab with stee downes, nicholas is back for another fine deep house tune. this time usa singer shaun j. wright delivers some soul-drenched vocals. love someone is simply breathtaking. chceck out the slightly rougher underground mentality dub! on the flip the italian producer serves you with an atmospheric and melodious techno track called message and a discofied bomb called j.u.n.e.

o.v. wrights album -into something- wurde von hi-records qualitativ so hoch eingeschätzt, dass man den künstler mit den besten voraussetzungen für die aufnahmen ausstattete: memphis horns and strings bilden die backing-band, ein gewisser james brown spielt piano, und die besten background-sänger aus den eigenen studios wurden verpflichtet. o.v. wright, der ja zuvor schon mit al green und ann peebles aufgenommen hatte, nutze die gunst der stunde und produzierte dieses kleine soul-juwel und überzeugt zudem mit seinem einzigartigen gesang.

this four track remix sampler follows up the debut release from chicagos very own shaun j. wright & alinka, sent directly to derrick carter with classic specifically in mind and immediately snapped up.

bpc-urgestein kiki hat für seine vinyl > spending time together< keinem geringeren als hercules and love affair-sänger shaun j. wright das mikrofon in die hand gegeben. die beiden scheinen wie füreinander geschaffen - shauns soulig-relaxte vocals legen sich wie ein dunkles seidentuch um kikis schlanke, druckvoll produzierte beats. dunkelheit ist dann auch das stichwort für die beiden, mit through darkness bright dub und dark dub benannten titel der 12 inch vinyl.
