Description
Great condition early UK mono edition of this rare Motown covers album from 1965. Laminated flip-back sleeve.
I say covers, but it is played by the guys who probably all played on these songs originally. Earl van Dyke and the Soul Brothers is to all intents and purposes The Funk Brothers, a group of Detroit-based session musicians who performed the backing to most Motown recordings from 1959 until the company moved to Los Angeles in 1972.
Earl Van Dyke (July 8, 1930 – September 18, 1992) was an American soul musician, most notable as the main keyboardist for Motown Records' in-house Funk Brothers band during the late 1960s and early 1970s.
Besides his work as the session keyboardist on Motown hits such as "Bernadette" by the Four Tops, "I Heard It Through the Grapevine" by Marvin Gaye, "Where Did Our Love Go" by the Supremes, "Ain't Too Proud to Beg" and "Runaway Child, Running Wild" by the Temptations, "My Guy" by Mary Wells and "For Once in My Life" by Stevie Wonder, Van Dyke performed with a small band as an opening act for several Motown artists, and released instrumental singles and albums himself.
Several of Van Dyke's recordings feature him playing keys over the original instrumental tracks for Motown hits; others are complete covers of Motown songs.
He was nicknamed "Big Funk", and "Chunk o Funk".
