JBJ 1070EP
|
A new release on the Jukebox Jam Series features two originally unissued sides from the "Poet Of The Blues", Percy Mayfield. "Gone Astray" is an irresistibly jazzy, mid-tempo rhythm & blues track which just epitomizes class. The flip is a closing time blues lament with Mayfield drawling his way through his guidelines for dealing with heartache and strife.

2021 restock. "This 1966 record is the first of 2 albums Percy Mayfield recorded for Ray Charles' Tangerine label. A masterful songwriter who's touching blues ballad 'Please Send Me Someone To Love' was a number one R&B hit in 1950, Mayfield was Ray Charles's favorite author during the '60s handing him such gems as 'Hit The Road Jack' and 'At The Club' and so was signed to the Genius' label. A true master at expressing the innermost feelings, tangled with vulnerability and sensibility: 'Life Is Suicide' and 'River's Invitation' are two perfect examples that, along with the wonderful title track, are both included in this timeless classic." On 180 gram records.
