The second Kent Select forthcoming vinyl release is from
Warren Raye & The Infernal Blues Machine who have
featured on the blog with their superb "If You Wanna Love Me" from 1976 along with "Ain't That Love" from the preceding year which both appeared on their solitary album
"Adios Amigo" on London 1975.
The two sides offered by Kent are both previously unreleased
recordings, although "It's The Feeling I Get" did feature on another 100 Club anniversary single, the last one from
Sep 2022 which was paired with the unreleased "Without Your Sweet Lovin'". However, the flip side served up with "It's The Feeling I Get" is "I Can't Turn You Down", for which there is no sound file available for so have linked to the
Ace/Kent website sample. However, a version appeared on Kent's "Masterpieces of Modern Soul Volume 6" last year by Melanie Brooks (also included below).
Damion & Denita covered "It's The Feeling I Get" in 1980 on their self-titled, and only, album (which has been posted
HERE
previously). Denita is Denita James who was a member of Hodges, James &
Smith (& Crawford), and later The Natura'elles on Venture, and was Kim
Weston's cousin. So there's the connection to the previous Kent Select
release by Classic Example i.e. Stevenson and Weston (who were married) and Hodges, James & Smith & Crawford featured on backing vocals. Both releases have been licensed from Stevenson.
This one is also available to pre-order from Ace/Kent now for release on 27 Feb 2023.
