Product Description
CD Description
* Kent records cut its teeth on the great New York labels Scepter, Wand and Musicor. The imprints were much more than the hits of the time, already widely available so we've gone back to the one-offs, the neglected and indeed the newly discovered sides that have turned up in recent times.
* Dancers are catered for by classics including Marie Knight's `That's No Way To Treat A Girl', (here in the intriguing long version that Kent first discovered), Betty Moorer's Latin-tinged `Speed Up', Diane Lewis' Detroit opus `Without Your Love' and JB Troy's currently in-demand `Live On'.
* There are some choice unissued sides from the unknown Helen Henry, singer/producer Ed Townsend with a beaty proto-soul number and a terrific slab of early funk from the magnificent Jackie Moore. An Ashford, Simpson and Armstead song, `One Time Too Many', is a mouth-watering taster of a forthcoming CD of unissued Shirelles recordings.
* The more modern sounds of the labels' influential 70s singles are represented by the southern-sounding Ann Bailey, a Curtis-inspired Patti Jo and the oddly-named, but surprisingly soulful, Buckeye Politicians.
* Big city ballads are rightly represented and the notable ones include Winfield Parker's scarce `Will There Ever Be Another Love For Me', George Tindley's beautiful `So Help Me Woman' and a previously unissued version of the popular beat ballad `Millionaire' by the unknown artist Lee Thomas. Finally we're including Johnny Maestro's flip to `Stepping Out Of The Picture', `Afraid Of Love', which is a corking early soul sound deserving of plays.

As with any 'Ace/Kent' cd this has a good informative booklet with photo's and label scans. Sound quality is great as are most of the tracks. The tracks on this cd can be divided into three parts - A) Tracks 1-12 lots of great songs with strong melodies (early to mid 60's) worth buying for these tracks alone. Real standout songs would be 'Thats no way to treat a girl' by Marie knight, the unissued 'Millionaire' by Lee Thomas and two fantastic tracks 'Its a dream i've always had' by Porgy & the Monarchs and my favourite track 'Take my love with you' by The Tabs. B) Tracks 13-17 are from the early 1970's (not my thing) except 'Girl i could love you more' by Buckeye Politicians is very good. C) tracks 18-24 are an eclectic mix with two good unissued tracks 'Diamond ring' by Fabulous Dinos and 'One time too many' by the Shirelles (its always good to hear an unissued Shirelles song). Overall a very good compilation.

Kent revisit Scepter, Wand and Musicor, but sadly the labels' greats - Chuck Kackson, Dionne Warwick, Tommy Hunt the Shirelles - are notable in their absence, or only get single cuts, with many of the previously unreleased tracks by obscure artists perhaps better suited for specialist collectors.
I was amazed to find Patti Jo's 'Make Me Believe in You' here, I thought it must have come out of Chicago, it still sounds superb and in one of several later cuts that stand out.
Still. from the excellent sleeve notes it looks as if there is more to come from the vaults, and as always with Kent (and Ace) the sound quality is pristine.
