The second
Izipho Soul
7" vinyl release scheduled for 1 Mar 2023 (along with
Norman Hutchins) consists of two sides, written, arranged and produced by Ron
Foster. A third will be announced shortly.
The top side is a new and extended version of Whirlwind's 1975 single "Don't Let Him Get The Best Of You" which was a meagre 2:42 when initially released on 7" in 1975 (flipped
with "Something, I Can Feel Something") It was released again as the flip to "Full Time Thing (Between Dusk And Dawn)" but unfortunately wasn't released on the 12" version of it as it was the
A side that saw most of the action back in the day. These were the
only two releases from the group.
Izipho released an instrumental version (from 1985 I believe) in 2019 which
is a completely different arrangement and interpretation using a 21 Piece
orchestra. The new version presented here has a new vocal by Sandi Everett
who was an original Whirlwind with her brothers Charles and Edward (Eddie) Ancrum ...
who went on to become Charles & Eddie ... only joking!
On the flip is a new extended version of "Let's Play Luck", a track from Lee McDonald's "Sweet Magic" album from 1981 on Debbie .
McDonald was also known as Cleveland Parker and was a member of
The Village Soul Choir. In 2019 Izipho Soul released a single by Parker, "How Long", which was a gospel interpretation of "Sweet Magic" the title track of
his 1981 album recorded in 1989 which took the song to another level.
The label also released a double-sider of killer cuts from The Village
Soul choir's catalogue in Oct 2021. The album only "All Purpose Love" (from "Street Opera With A Blues Waltz") and the 12" version of "Sweet Hot Lips" (1976).
The single is available to pre-order now from
Izipho Soul
for release on 1 Mar 2023.
NOTE, original shorter versions of both songs also included below for comparison.
