Review:
A wealth of rare New Orleans soul -- and a great package dedicated to the work of producer Wardell Quezerque! The 2CD, 60 track set is chock-full of wonderful numbers -- great singles that have been remastered and which feature a mixture of better known singers -- like Eddie Bo or CL Blast -- plus a host of other talents we'd never heard before. The "smokin" in the title is certainly well-placed, as the package is overstuffed with great tunes that you'd have to spend a lifetime of digging through singles bins to find. Tracks include "Poor Sam" by Earl King, "99.44% Pure Love", "What Can I Do" by CL Blast, "Soul Train" by Curley Moore, "Patty Cake Shake" by Guitar Ray, "You Are Going To Be Somebody's Fool Too" by Eddie Bo, "I Believe In Miracles" by Jerry Foucha, "Can You Forgive Me" by Earl Harrison, "Everybody Dance" by Lydia Marcelle, "Lucky Fellow" by The Jades, "Can't Stay Away" by The Fabulettes", and "Make Up Your Mind" by Vic Cornish.

We owe a debt of gratitude to Night Train Records...shows what the early '60s music scene was all about...Charles "Soul" Brown's contribution alone is worth the price of this release

Wardell Quezerque: Sixty Smokin' Soul Senders
Various Artists
Funky Delicacies
DEL 2CD 0038
Sixty Smokin Soul Senders runs the absolute gamut of 60s soul style that Quezerque applied to a range of artists greater or lesser known. The breadth of his masterful empathy spans the Orbison-esque productions of Billy Tircuit and the blues of Charles "Soul" Brown, to the Stax soul stylings of Sammy Ridgley and Guitar Ray. (For our overview of Quezerque's equally distinctive 70s work, please check out Wardell Quezerqeu's Funky Funky New Orleans DEL CD 0023)
