Kent score again with 19 more unissued Demo’s and alternative takes recorded by the great Soul singer and songwriter Sam Dees in the 70’s. The album is great throughout but special mention s are deserved to the sophisticated slinky cut ‘Gimme A Little Action’ (recorded by Sylvia), the deep soul ballad ‘Married but still in love’, haunting mid-tempo ‘Someone to run to’ nd jaunty Southern Soul ‘ Today is a new day’. The extended version of ‘Touch me with your love’, and earlier and alternative versions of ‘What’s it gonna be’, ‘Claim Jumpin’ and his cut of ‘I Know where you’re coming from’ are also highlights on this excellent compilation.
