Description
Bo Diddley ORIG OZ LP Where it all began EX ’72 Chess CHLS277 Soul Funk Blues
Original OZ LP released in 1972 on Chess Records. Cat: CHLS277.
This record came from a collection in absolutely stunning condition, many not played at all and most only played a few times at best.
Johnny Otis and Pete Welding produced this surprisingly successful soul effort by Bo, which succeeded in reshaping his sound, not as a Sly Stewart wannabe or a lounge act covering Creedence Clearwater Revival hits. Bo at least sounds comfortable and natural doing songs like "Look At Grandma" and "Woman," and the latter is a pretty damn good song -Bo finally emerged as a soul singer in his own right, and it worked, artistically at least. "Hey Jerome" even recalls tracks like "Say Man" in a not-unflattering light.
Tracks : I’ve had it hard/ Woman/ Look at grandma/ A good thing/ Bad trip/ Hey, jerpme/ Infatuation/ Take it all off/ Bo Diddley-itis.
There are a few light spindle marks marks on labels. Record has some light scuff marks that cause some light crackles and is in Excellent condition. Gloss cover has a few light marks and is in Excellent condition.
