Description
Limited seven inch vinyl LP pressing. Produced and recorded in 1965 during a time when Chicago soul was one of the most influential sounds in R&B. The Dontells entered the studio and cut two tracks that put that sound on full display. The session was led by producer Calvin Carter, world famous arranger Johnny Pate and the city's top musicians. These tracks were never released and have only been heard by a few people until now. The A side "Move On Down the Line" grabs you from the first second the needle drops. A mid tempo love song with a trademark arrangement from Pate and a vocal melody and approach in the style of Chicago's king of soul, Curtis Mayfield. "There Goes A Fool" is the B side and is a reminder why The Dontells were one of the best groups out of the Windy City. Another brilliant production with a top notch arrangement. Horns, strings, a swinging backbeat and that signature Chicago vocal sound lead by the sweet harmonies of Nate, Leroy, Manuel and Ralph. This is no doubt a 60's soul classic in 2017!
