Ted Taylor The Ever Wonderful - OKeh Uptown Soul 1962-66 (CD)

(2006/SHOUT) 25 tracks Okeh 1962-66 (62:56/25) 30 years of recordings on some 20 different labels, including half-a-dozen R&B hits, yet still a 'great unknown' of the soul world! Ted Taylor began life as a doo-wop signer with The Cadets and Jacks, and his solo career yielded a wealth of singles in his distinctive high-tenor voice. This is the first comprehensive CD re-issue of Ted's Okeh 45s, recorded in New York and Nashville from 1962-1966, in a style comparable with that of Clyde McPhatter, Little Willie John and Smokey Robinson.
