Description
Just how do you categorize such transcendent soul? It's Northern Soul, yes, but it is also a derivation of African-American girl group styles so prominent in the early to mid 60's. (Technically,they were not all girl with Joe Livingston and George Garner doing sensational background vocals). Carol Jackson's smooth, understated voice is perfect and lovely. She is adaptable to both sad ballads ("Where is Your Heart?", Gee, I'm Sorry, Baby") to wonder up tempo dance numbers ("Wild Child",Slow Fizz"). This material is so important on so many different levels for so many people: Super producer Jerry Ross; young writer,producer,musician, arranger Kenny Gamble; Melba Moore, Ashford and Simpson on many background tracks. "Who Do You Love" and "Gotta Have Your Love" gets me every time. Carol Jackson, you have a gigantic fan here and I hope to hear from you one day on line. Anyone with an interest in soul, Northern soul, The Philly Sound, Sixties "Girl Group" Acts or Carol Jackson's searing voice must have this album. It is essential. This is an original 1ST Pressing 1964 pressing of The Sapphires album "Who Do You Love" on the Swan Record label. This album has a thick, sturdy cover, a thick, rigid record with deep groove labels and machine stamping in the trail-off vinyl. Counterfeits have thin covers, flexible vinyl, labels with no groove and do not have machine stamping in the trail-off vinyl. This beauty has a MINT 9 record jacket which includes the seams and spine. The printing on the spine is clear and centered. It retains shrink wrap that has two breathe holes in it. The back is the purest white I have seen in awhile. A tiny brass ring located top left corner is the way the record jacket was manufactured. The record vinyl has No scratches or scuffs and is also graded at MINT 9. Impossible to improve upon. Please see 6 pictures below.
