It's been a good long while since I offered up any Stacy Lane. I have no solid info on the man, but everything points to him being a Memphis based artist.
Hard to say if this record is scarcer than his "African Twist/I'm Out To Win You Over", but for my part I could've picked up five copies of that 45 while hunting up a single copy of this one.
Nice slow groove, a crawling piano line....and a truly whacked out guitar solo that gets my attention every time. Suits me so well I'm tempted to use it as the theme song for a radio show I've been offered. Only problem is the mention of "soulsville" in the lyrics.
Hope ya'll enjoy....
I'll bet that co-writer credit for T. Wommack is actually the great Memphis guitarist Travis Wammack, of "Scratchy" fame. The solo certainly sounds like him. -- Jon
ReplyDeleteJon...you are indeed correct. Lane says, "Ok Travis" right before the solo.
ReplyDeleteSo he does! I missed that the first time. -- Jon
ReplyDeleteGood funky little tune. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteAna, It would be great to hear a radio show hosted by you. If you accept the offer I hope it will be streamed on line.
