VA - The Best Of Loma Records, Rise And Fall Of A 1960's Soul Label [1995]

It's an interesting commentary on the quality of 60 Soul that there were so many great records that didn't get the attention they deserved while many of today's tunes wouldn't have made it as frisbees! "I Paid For the party" by the Enchanters, "You're Absolutely Right" by the Apollas, "Somewhere Somebody Loves You" and "What Have I Done To Make You Mad" by Linda Jones should have all been major hits, but at least we have them here to enjoy! For an interesting companion piece, check "The Blue Rock Records Story" for more classics for Little-Known Soul.

Let's face the years of Loma Records (64-68) were soul music's prime years. They may not have had many hits, but they were a Warner Brothers subsidiary, and the records were well-written and well-produced. Possibly Warner Brothers, not having the right connections to promote black music, didn't know what to do with this music. Anyway, this is classic stuff - not to be missed for the true 60s soul collector.  (Amazon)
