Deon Jackson [2022] - Someday The Sun Will Shine / I Remember The Feeling [Hit And Run #HR 1555]


The second release on 17 Nov '22 from Hit And Run is a pair of unreleased sides (at the time) from, generally overlooked and underrated, Detroit artist Deon Jackson

The lead side "Someday The Sun Will Shine" was a self-written, unknown and unreleased , song until an acetate was discovered (by Dean Anderson at Stafford in the 80s now owned by Carl Fortnum I believe?) which resulted in a bootleg appearing on Canadian label Maple St. CD "Detroit Dynamite" and then on a counterfeit Carla label with "I've Got So Much Love". Hit And Run has carefully remastered it for vinyl release (included below). 

The flip side is a cover of the Barbara Lewis, Rose Marie McCoy written, floater "I Remember The Feeling" which she released as a B side to "Baby What Do You Want Me To Do" on Atlantic in 1966. It was paired with the Barbara Lewis version on 7" by Stardust (probably late 90s / early 00s as a guess) and was also issued by Goldie 45 along with the biggest of his only two hits "Love Makes The World Go Around" circa 1974.

We did a fairly comprehensive post on Deon Jackson earlier this year when we came across a 25 track digital compilation "Presenting Deon Jackson" but omitted "Someday The Sun Will Shine".

The single is available now to order by sending £15 (£12 + £3 postage) to: hitandrunsoul45@gmail.com
