Editorial Reviews

Album Description
• It’s well known that UK Sue’s A&R guru Guy Stevens always intended to compile and issue a fourth vinyl volume of "The Sue Story". Now, just 39 years after the original Volume 3 found its way into record stores and by genuine popluar demand, Ace and Kent have further honoured Guy’s visionary A&R policy by putting their own spin on things, with a Volume 4 that brings together a bunch of rarities – all originally released in the UK on Sue – that may well have formed that core of Guy’s own ‘wish list’ for a fourth vinyl instalment.

• The CD features many artists whose names will – for UK soul and R&B collectors, at least – be indelibly associated with the familiar yellow and red imprint. It also features many extremely obscure acts whose repertoire took an extra amount of tracking down, and who rub shoulders nicely alongside the more familiar names on board.

• The featured repertoire ranges from Chicago R&B to Big City Soul, from stomping rockers to the deepest Southern Soul from the Stax studios – all totally reflective of the catholic tastes and A&R policy of the late, great Guy S. Around a third of the tracks have never been reissued on CD or LP!

• Meticulously mastered from the best available sources, and lovingly annotated by UK R&B journalist and UK Sue obsessive Mike Atherton, this is as compelling a collection of truly great 60s soul and R&B as you’ll find anywhere.


Customer Reviews

More Sue reissues please!5
I agree wholeheartedly with David Booker's review except for his statement regarding 'Watch your Step', which was in fact released on Volume One of the series. There are indeed many gems which could be part of this hopefully ongoing series, such as all of the 'We Sing The Blues' (ILP 921) album, a true classic which I play to this day, having purchased it about forty years ago.

Also well worth reissue with its original track sequence is the 'This Is Sue!' album, which like 'We Sing The Blues' has several classic tracks which remain hard to find.

Then there's Elmore James' 'Happy Home' and his later (1963) version of 'It Hurts Me Too' (in mono please), Freddy King's 'Hideaway', Willie Mabon's 'Got To Have Some', 'Why Did It Happen To Me?' and 'Just Got Some', part 2 of 'You Can't Sit Down'.....

This is truly great music. Keep it coming please!
