Aretha Franklin - Just A Matter Of Time - Classic Columbia Recordings 1961-65
If Aretha Franklin and Jerry Wexler had never met, and instead of signing with Atlantic Records in 1966 Aretha had retired, on the strength of the sides she cut in the first half of the 1960s alone, she would still be one of my favourite female soul singers. That’s how much I love her Columbia work.

Admittedly, Jerry Wexler was among the greatest record producers that ever lived, but so were the men who supervised Aretha’s Columbia sessions – John Hammond, Robert Mersey, Bob Johnston and Clyde Otis. And granted, it is the magnificent body of work Aretha recorded for Atlantic that earned her the soubriquet the Queen Of Soul, but her dues-paying Columbia tenure produced its fair share of classics and provided her with nine entries on Billboard’s Hot 100 and a further eight that bubbled under.

Aretha recorded in a variety of styles in her early years and some fans of her Atlantic sides don’t care for the jazz and show tunes that litter her Columbia catalogue. They can relax. “Just A Matter Of Time” – compiled for us by pioneering black music maven and author David Nathan – focuses entirely on the soul and R&B tracks she cut for the company, of which he has been a champion since before she contracted with Atlantic.

The majority of the tracks here stem from three albums. ‘Rough Lover’, ‘It’s So Heartbreakin’’, ‘Just For You’ and ‘I Told You So’ are from 1962’s “The Electrifying Aretha Franklin”. All four songs were written by a legendary eccentric said to have stalked naked the corridors of the Brill Building, John Leslie McFarland. Aretha’s tremendous “Runnin’ Out Of Fools” set of 1964 was the original home of ‘The Shoop Shoop Song (It’s In His Kiss)’, ‘One Room Paradise’, ‘Two Sides Of Love’, ‘I Can’t Wait Until I See My Baby’s Face’, ‘(You Don’t Know) How Glad I Am’ and ‘It’s Just A Matter Of Time’. ‘Remember Me’, ‘Deeper’, ‘Only The One You Love’, ‘Her Little Heart Went To Loveland’ and ‘Tighten Up Your Tie, Button Up Your Jacket (Make It For The Door)’ are from her 1966 LP “Take It Like You Give It”.

Other highlights include the very collectable (and much sampled) ‘One Step Ahead’, a wild Bo Diddley-styled update of the Jay McShann-Priscilla Bowman hit ‘Hands Off’ and ‘Follow Your Heart’, a beautiful song written by Van McCoy. Whenever Aretha sang McCoy it was a joy to behold.

It’s not every day the chance arises to hear something new by Aretha. On this CD the opportunity knocks twice. ‘When They Ask About You’ was taped in 1961 when she was just 19 and is the earliest track featured. ‘I Still Can’t Forget’, one of three inclusions penned by the lady herself, dates from 1965. Both are released here for the first time ever. What a rare treat.

B.J. Thomas - Scepter Records Hits And More 1964-73
B.J. Thomas was one of the most consistent - and consistently good! - purveyors of American pop for more than a decade. A major chart star for most of the second half of the 1960s and through to the mid '70s, B.J.seemed to always be able to anticipate the needs of the US Top 40 at every career twist and turn, and his great records like Hooked On A Feeling and Mighty Clouds Of Joy were ever a positive enhancement to the AM radio waves of their time (as they are to oldies FM radio stations across the USA in the 21st Century). For around eight of those years, B.J. recorded exclusively for the go-ahead, New York-based independent Scepter Records, and its his best recordings for Scepter that are the subject of Ace's first-ever UK anthology to seriously appraise, and afford historical significance to, Billy Joe Thomas.

Born in Oklahoma and raised near Houston, B.J. had been a local East Texas phenomenon for a few years when Scepter picked up his locally-released, blue-eyed soul revival of Hank Williams, Sr's I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry and turned it into a national Top 10 hit. From then on in he was the world's property, scoring again and again on the national and international charts with the tracks that form the bulk of this compilation. (Rather strangely, the majority of his Scepter 45s did not make the UK charts. This is not a comment on their quality - as you'll hear, they have 'quality' in abundance! - but rather on the restrictive nature of UK radio in the late 60s and early 70s. That, and the taste of a public that could regularly chart Des O'Connor and Val Doonican in 1967 and 1968 but that could seemingly find no room for Hooked On A Feeling until it was massacred a few years later by Jonathan King.)

This is the most comprehensive collection of B.J. Thomas' Scepter hits and significant sides to be released on CD to date. It's the only one that encompasses his first success for the label and his final ones. The track selection serves to remind the listener that he might just have been the most versatile pop singer of his generation, able to move, seemingly effortlessly, from blue-eyed Texas soul to Bacharach-David singalong to Memphis pop with country overtones and make it all sound great.

Highlights of this CD include a trilogy of Memphis-recorded songs that tend to be associated with the late Elvis Presley, but it was B.J. Thomas who cut the original, and in every way superior, versions of It's Only Love and I Just Can't Help Believing. Had things gone his way, B.J. might also have been the originator of Suspicious Minds, but his regular writer Mark James had already given The King first refusal - and the rest you know. As you'll hear, though, B.J.'s own version (with its 'suspicious'-ly similar backing track!) is no mere 'make do'. Scepter would regularly send B.J. to Memphis or Muscle Shoals in his hitmaking heyday, and the presence of some great Southern musicians make these, and great recordings like The Eyes Of A New York Woman and Most Of All, even greater than they would have been if cut elsewhere.

More great stuff can be found in the first section of this CD, recorded when B.J.was still working out of and around Houston and still infusing his sessions with a mixture of the sounds and styles he heard while growing up in East Texas. Among these tracks you'll find bluesy workouts of country classics (Tomorrow Never Comes and I Can't Help It), pacey Northern Soul-style pop (I Don't Have A Mind Of My Own) and two of the more interesting 'death discs' you'll ever hear, Billy And Sue and Plain Jane - the latter of which surely influenced Stephen King's 'Carrie' in many ways!

Further highlights here include another unofficial 'trilogy', this time of Bacharach and David songs. Everyone surely knows Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head and here it is, on this CD, in its definitive B.J.Thomas version. Even better, though, are the ambitious Long Ago Tomorrow and the quite wonderful, and brilliantly scored, Everybody's Out Of Town. Collectively they are three of the best late-period B & D songs, and it's hard to imagine anyone putting them over better than B.J. Thomas does.

Much the same could be said about any of these songs, and BJ's performances thereof. Whether dipping back into vintage country via Hank Williams and Ernest Tubb, putting his own spin on a then-unreleased Stevie Wonder masterpiece or dipping into the stellar catalogue of Brill Building giants Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil, B.J.Thomas makes his versions count in a way that lesser singers could only dream of doing. That's why these recordings sound as vital today as they did more than 30 years ago. That's why any serious connoisseur of American Popular music will need to find space on their shelf for this 'must-have' CD. And that's something I'd be prepared to say regardless of whether or not I compiled and/or wrote the notes for it (which I did).

If you know the name, but not the music, there's never been a better time to get 'Hooked' on B.J. Thomas than now - and here!
