Rare Soul: New Old Finds
My brother has bought several of the Eccentric Soul releases on cd over the past few years and they’ve been real treasure troves. I like that they don’t exclude recordings because of poor sound quality as they will even use found cassette tape versions. They realize that the song and the performance are most important and must be kept alive. I just went through the Eccentric Soul collections on iTunes and purchased a big load of songs. Here’s a list of some of my favourites: Let Me Be Free – Sonia Ross; Standing By Love – Eula Cooper; Darling I’ll Go – Moovers; Glad About That – Linda Ballentine; If I Had A Little Love (Rehearsal) – The Majestic Arrows.
And here is a youtube link for Try by Eula Cooper:

I miss having the disposable income I had when Eccentric Soul first started and I would pick up everyone I saw. It’s probably not a bad series to cherry pick from, but the series was always packaged well and came with excellent booklets.
