Old School - Latimore (Let's Straighten It Out) 
Benny Latimore was part of Henry Stone's Miami based TK Records crew: Betty Wright George & Gwen McCrae Little Beaver Foxy Bobby Caldwell KC & The Sunshine Band Let's Straighten It Out ('74) and subsequent recordings, showed Latimore to be an original soul man and multi-keyboardist. (melodica, piano, organ, electric piano, clavinet & synthesizers) Other Latimore cuts: Stormy Monday Keep The Home Fire Burnin' Somethin' 'Bout 'Cha Sweet Vibrations (grooves like Whatcha See Is Whatcha Get) There's A Red-Neck In The Soul Band To the best of my knowledge he's still around having played on the Josh Stone "Soul Sessions" release. tA  Tribal Disorder

Living in the home of Malaco Records.....they wear those songs out down here. But I can say I do like Lattimore, Z.Z. Hill, and Denise LaSalle.
I can remember blues back in the day when it all didn't sound alike. Nowadays, all of it is starting to sound alike these days. I think a lot of them have the same producers. I remember also liking blues from Bobby Rush ("Sue") and J. Blackfoot ("Taxi"). Does anyone remember a funk jam J. Blackfoot did in the late 1980s called "U Turn". Now, that was a JAM! Like I said, down here they TOTALLY wear the blues out. The people that don't listen to blues, listen to rap. Andy is a four letter word. | |
