Offering over 20 tracks, is top heavy with seven Major Lance songs. The romantic "Call Me Tomorrow," an early track by Major "Love Won't Let Me Wait" Harris, is also featured, along with contributions from the hard-singing Tommy Tate with the aching "I'm Taking On Pain," and Larry Williams and Johnny "Guitar" Watson, who wail on two saucy duets: "Too Late," and "A Quitter Never Wins." Included as well are Billy Butler's most famous song "Right Track," the Artistics' biggest Okeh release "This Heart of Mine," a soulful Little Richard on "I Don't Want to Discuss It," two tear jerkers from Walter Jackson, and more.Condition: the sleeve grades EX.
