This Is It! – More From The Van Mccoy Songbook 1962-1977
£15.99
Format: CD
Release date: 28 Jun 2019
Great 24-track look at tracks written by the legendary Van McCoy, performed by a wealth of well known and lesser exposed act: the pumping ‘Searching For My Baby’ by Kenny Carlton is class, The Spellbinder’s dramatic ‘Baby I Miss You’ is a joy while Erma Franklin’s ‘Abracadabra’ is full of magic and suspense. Check Major Lance’s upbeat dancer ‘Wait Til I Get You In My Arms’, Toni Lamar’s bouncy ‘Just In The Nick of Time’ and the classy mid tempo ‘Where Did You Learn To make Love Like That’ from Sharon Ridley. The socio-edged ‘Little Bit Of Love’ from Brenda & The Tabulations rings true today while Bill Harris’ ‘Am I Cold Am I Hot’ is evergreen.
