Product Description
Album Description
The first of three volumes which, between them, chronicle the six-year lifespan of the UK Sue label, probably the most beloved imprint of all among the many collectors of blues, rock‘n’roll and soul on UK labels. UK Sue was the R&B arm of Island Records, and – for most of its lifetime – the total responsibility of the late Guy Stevens. Almost every record that was released on Sue was personally selected by Stevens, many of them based on the reactions of the audience, when he DJ’d at the legendary London discotheque "The Scene". Stevens later went on to produce records by Mott The Hoople and the Clash in the 1970s, but it’s for the UK Sue label that he will always be remembered. The UK Sue Story is as much his story as it is that of the records he selected for release on its familiar red and yellow logo. Among the many artists who received their first UK exposure via a Sue Records release were Elmore James, Inez and Charlie Foxx, Donnie Elbert, Big Al Downing, Billy Preston, Bob and Earl, Homesick James and Jimmy McGriff. UK Sue also reissued many in-demand titles by such luminaries as Phil Upchurch, Bobby Parker, Huey "Piano" Smith, Frankie Ford and many more. Sue was, in many ways, the foundation on which today’s reissue market is built. Guaranteed appeal for all collectors of 50s and 60s R&B and soul music, with copious annotation, illustration and shots of original UK Sue labels to appeal to collectors everywhere!
