‘this is eleanore mills’ was her debut and only album, recorded for the sylvia robinson’s all platinum subsidiary astroscope in 1974. the album was produced by harry ray and al goodman of the moments and tommy keith of the rimshots. it includes some great crossover and modern soul cuts, including the in-demand string laden early soul/disco ‘same routine’ a popular killer cut and ‘i’m gonna get you’ another superb up tempo soul cut. ‘fascinating devastating man’ is a lovely mid tempo track. the album includes some beautiful soul ballads ‘he said goodbye’, ‘how can i love you’ and the heavily sampled ‘telegram’ which she rips up, plus ‘teach me’ an amazing near seven minute opus which picks up a heavier groove half way through.

nice price deal !!!

limited edition of 1000 copies for rsd 2017.
soul brother records are delighted to release for record store day 2017 one of the most elusive soul lp’s of all time, a truly holy grail album. susan phillips ‘soft sexy soul’ was recorded for sylvia robinson’s all platinum label 1971, pressed in small quantities. few copies have ever surfaced, it is so rare that many collectors doubt if it was ever released, it is not listed on discogs and it has never been recorded as selling on ebay. if an original copy were found today, it would surely sell for a substantial amount of money. the album has that classic early 70’s new jersey orchestrated soul sound. the album contains the in demand 2-step single ‘he knows my key (is always in the mailbox)’, the northern soul floater ‘answer to my prayer’, detroit sounding ‘please don’t keep me lonely’ the multi paced ‘where do i go from here’ and many great ballads like ‘he’s gone’ and ‘this i’ll guarantee’. demand from soul collectors is expected to be high and this album is likely to sell out quickly in the same way that last years ‘this is eleanore mills’ (also from all platinum) and all the previous soul brother records rsd releases have.

nach touren rund um den globus kehrten eleanore und jason zurück in ihr abgedunkeltes studio und arbeiteten an dem hypnotisierendem nachfolger zu ihrem beeindruckenden debüt. >red night< wirkt wie eine meditation über trennung und wiederfindung, über fast verloren gegangene liebe und die lang nacht zu ihr zurück. der thith sound vermählt furchtlos minimalismus und abstraktion mit grossartigen melodien. eindringliche stringarrangements werden von treibenden rhythmen und eleanores faszinierender stimme überrannt. >red night< ist ein trip durch die schwarze grossstadtnacht, in der zeit sich dehnt, geschwindigkeit bricht, und gitarren in donner und herzklopfen eintauchen, bei immer intensiver werdenden vocals, je länger die nacht dauert. nach jüngsten auftritten mit odd future und kid cudi, mit den yeah yeah yeahs, james murphy und squarepusher werden thith jetzt auch bei uns ihr neues album ausgiebig live präsentieren!
