Long know among his contemporaries as one of the truly great lead alto men of America, Preston Love has assembled here a vital and driving group of musicians who have produced a modern musical classic. Running the gamut from. Rhythm & Blues grooves through latin-flavoured rhythms, to an exotic alto sax soul-ballad, this package has virtually something for everyone. Maestro, Preston Love, chose as producer his long time friend Johnny Otis, Who in turn brought along his teen-age son Shuggie who, in spite of being only 14 years old at the time this album was recorded, burns through with a deep blues-oriented feeling and an artistic maturity that is startling. In typical fashion, Shuggie performs as catalyst on guitar and electric Bass, Otis,Sr. is heard on piano and vibe and tenor sax man, Clifford Solomon cooks up a storm as he and Shuggie romp through this record exploring and savoring the joys of the blues. On the lush and unique Cream Dream, Preston Love displays the brillant tones and soulful creativeness that have thrilled audiences and caused his fellow musicians to marvel for many years. Cookin’ up an Omaha Bar-B-Q is Nebraska-born Love’s specialty…….but this musical feast will be just as delicious in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles or Diddy Wa Diddy!!!

America, and more exactly, Black America seemed to spend much of the 1960’s inventing moves to go with their dance music. Not many today could remember how to do the Watusi, the Jerk or the Skate, tho’ most could do a Twist of some sort. Northern Soul’s origines lie in the mid Sixties and that’s where the Shing-A-Ling lived lending it’s name to a Small nimber of records typified by a frenetic and urgent approach usuelle fuelled by tambourines. To be honest I do not even know which the first Shing-A-Ling records is, nor did too many discs assume the apellage but some are inclued here together with a number of others typifying the style and tempo not only of a dance but also of Northern Soul.
