PRYSOCK ARTHUR - CD TOO LATE BABY: THE OLD TOWN SINGLES 1958-66

Popis - TOO LATE BABY: THE OLD TOWN SINGLES 1958-66:
The first-ever CD compilation of this R&B balladeer's classic singles for New York's Old Town label. Between 1959 and 1966 Arthur Prysock had two dozen singles and more than half a dozen albums issued on Old Town. These have been largely out of print since Verve Records bought Arthur's contract and his Old Town masters in 1966. Many of these 24 cuts have never been reissued at all, in any format. Arthur's warm baritone brings to mind Lou Rawls, Roy Hamilton, Billy Paul and his own hero, Billy Eckstine, a contemporary and his friend. The tracks featured cover all facets of Arthur's artistry, from smooth balladry to rocking R&B.
