Soho Scene ’66 (Two) LP

DescriptionThis album contains twelve tracks you’d have heard in some smoke-filled Soho basement back in ‘66. Featured amongst the British acts, are the swinging ‘What’s Her Name’ by the Ian Hamer Sextet, where the trumpeter is joined by Tubby Hayes, Dick Morrissey and Alan Skidmore. You also get furious fingers hammering those ivories on ‘Cox’s Pippin’ courtesy of the Mike Carr Trio. From over the other side of the pond, we bring you the legendary organist Richard ‘Groove Holmes with ‘Boo-D-Doo’, a track that just cooks all the way through, and gives you a clue as to how he got his nickname. The final track is a fantastic vocal from Kenny Rankin, ‘In the Name of Love’. He re-recorded it in ‘74, but it’s that ’66 sound that makes this track groove.So, put this album on, close your eyes, and let the music transport you back in time…
