Ja myslalem ze w tej "wersji bazowej" chodzi Rakietowi o pierwsze nagranie Kinga, ale "drogowskaz" Rockena jest swietny. To kawalek z plyty ktora bardzo lubie.
Ja mam to powyzsze wydanie [Polygram 1995] ale bez problemu i tanio mozna kupic kolejne wydania. Ostatnie bodajze z 2009. Adamie, jesli spodobal Ci sie kawalek pokazany przez Rockena, polecam cala plyte. Warto. Podepre sie opinia znakomitego dziennikarza muzycznego:
The greatest soul singer ever to fall below '60s pop radar, Howard Tate remains a tantalizing cipher remembered only through explosive cover versions of his late '60s singles by a blue-chip array of fans including Janis Joplin, B.B. King, Jimi Hendrix, and Ry Cooder. Tate's original versions were even better: his ecstatic falsetto, sinuous tenor releases, and gruff asides placed him in a category of R&B vocal stylists as lofty as his stratospheric pompadour. But the Macon-born, Philadelphia-raised former doo-wopper eluded broader acclaim despite a string of powerful performances that just dented the charts. As produced by R&B stalwart Jerry Ragovoy, Tate's sessions mixed emotive standouts, including "Ain't Nobody Home," "Stop," "Get It While You Can," and "Look at Granny Run Run," with shrewd soul updates of electric blues classics like "How Blue Can You Get" and King's signature tune, "Everyday I Have the Blues." The singer's vein-popping performances are matched by rock-solid arrangements and production, well served in this overdue anthology. As for Tate, he disappeared into legend in the early '70s, making this mother lode of deathless soul all the more valuable. --Sam Sutherland
