Product Description
From Amazon.co.uk
This is an outstanding compilation. Remastered from material recorded between 1962 and 1965, what's instantly apparent on hearing Alexander's plaintive tones is what a debt groups like the Beatles and the Rolling Stones owed to this sweet-voiced Southern country-soul pioneer from Alabama. The former covered his tragic, harmony-laden "Anna", the latter romped through "You Better Move On". Other artists who've sung Alexander-penned songs include Elvis Presley, Robert Plant and Tina Turner. Without exception, Alexander sang the originals better: in a soft, low crooning style somewhat akin to Sam Cooke, but with more expression in his smouldering voice. And, always, he was the loser in his bittersweet love affairs. An album for romantics and lovers of soft-centred soul. --Everett True
Album Description
This CD has been one of Ace's most popular since its release in June 1989, both in terms of sales and critical approval.
17 years on it was beginning to appear slightly dated and so we have taken the opportunity to bring its appearance bang up-to-date with a brand new cover and booklet.
Arthur of course, has the distinction of inspiring both the Beatles and the Rolling Stones, and the definitive versions are here of both `Anna (Go To Him)' and `You Better Move On'.
The note is written by Arthur's biographer, Richard Younger who, ironically, was first turned on to Arthur by Ace's original LP release, "A Shot Of Rhythm And Soul".
