Compilation info
This is my favorite r&b compilation record of all time (where that means compilations whose point is “you never heard any of these songs and they smoke”).
It contains my favorite r&b song of all time (sort of in the same way, but I don’t have to qualify it like that), Bad Girl pt. 1 by Lee Moses.
It also has the best song recorded by the “5” Royales (and which does not appear on any of my 5 Royales comps).
Ranges from trancentally great to off the hook silly, but never, *ever* tongue in cheek (not even the tune with the ringing telephone and crying through the entire song).
Why are you still reading?
Crypt catalog copy:
A great “concept” album containing a fine slew of emotional (ranging to psychological breakdown!) 50s R&B ballads and mid-60s southern soul love songs, perfect for miserable nights alone missing your loved one.
