Booker T. & the M.G.s – Soul Dressing [CLEAR VINYL] – New LP
• Long out of print and finally reissued 1965 release “Soul Dressing" (Mono)
• AAA process, cut from the Original Analog Master tapes by Kevin Gray.
• High Quality Vinyl Release.
• Limited Clear Vinyl Edition.
• Features the hit single: “Soul Dressing"
Reissue of 1965 album, "assembled mostly from (non-hit) 1963-65 singles, this is solid stuff...the best tracks ("Soul Dressing," "Tic-Tac-Toe," "Can't Be Still") are usually included on their best-of anthologies, but "Plum Nellie," featuring some ferocious, cutting-edge solos by Cropper and Jones, is an overlooked highlight." Throughout their history, Booker T & The MG's had their songs covered by artists as diverse as The Ventures, Count Basie, and Tom Petty, and continued being the band of choice in collaborations with legends such as Bob Dylan & Neil Young. 1965’s Soul Dressing features the legendary The Mar-Keys’ horn section, who add gravity to their soul sound, while Side Two might be the most fantastic late-night come-down album side of all time. And bonus points for the hints of ‘mod’ sprinkled around (even the U.K.’s Small Faces covered their original track “Plum Nellie”).
