John Gary Williams [Import]

• Track Listing

Digitally remastered and expanded edition. By the time that John Gary Williams recorded this album for Stax he was one of the label's veterans, having been signed as a member of the Mad Lads since the middle of the mid-60s. Now remembered as the home of soul dance 'The Whole Damn World Is Going Crazy' is a fantastic piece of southern soul showcasing John Gary's voice on an album's worth of largely down-tempo material. Recorded at Stax and featuring most of the musicians from Isaac Hayes' group, the Movement, it is an undoubted collectors classic. However Soul fans have always loved the non album single 'Come What May' which sells for well over £100, and we've included both sides of that 45 as a bonus.
